A Multiport DC Power Flow Controller Embedded in Modular Multilevel DC Transformer

Jianwen Zhang et al.

Summary: Meshed dc or hybrid ac/dc distribution grids have attracted increasing interest lately and their power flow control is a major topic of study. This study proposes a new dc power flow controller (DCPFC) directly integrated in a modular multilevel dc transformer, which can effectively mitigate power flow congestion and line losses by optimizing the power flow of the connected feeders. The proposed DCPFC features a simple structure, convenience for multiport extension, and bidirectional power flow adjustment capability, without the need for an external power supply and high-voltage isolation transformer.

A Sharing-Branch Modular Multilevel DC Transformer With Wide Voltage Range Regulation for DC Distribution Grids

Haozhe Jin et al.

Summary: This article proposes a novel direct current transformer (DCT) for the interconnection of medium-voltage DC (MVdc) and low-voltage DC (LVdc) distribution grids. The DCT uses a series-connected half-bridge submodule branch (SSB) on the MV-side to achieve low voltage stress of devices and reduce the number of submodules. Quasi square wave modulation strategy and phase-shifted control are employed for bidirectional power transmission control and zero-voltage switching (ZVS) for all switches. The effectiveness of the proposed DCT is verified through theoretical analysis and simulation.
