Abstract [en]
Using low frequency High Voltage Transmission systems (HV-T) in parallel with the catenary systemstrengthens the railway system by reducing the total impedance of the railway grid. A consequence ofthe reduced impedance is that converter stations are electrically closer to each other. Inside a converter station, different types of Rotary Frequency Converters (RFCs) are used. It is not wellexplored how different RFCs behaves and interacts with each other during and after a large disturbance, like a short circuit. The dynamics of an RFC are modelled by using the Andersson-Fouad model of a synchronous machine. The study presented in this paper investigates interactions inside and between converter stations, withdifferent types of RFC, for an HV-T system in parallel with a Booster Transformer catenary system. The numerical simulation results show, for instance, that the main power oscillation take place inside aconverter station with mixed configuration of RFC type after fault clearance.
