Abstract:When high voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission is subject to short-term disturbance, the variation of electromagnetic torque caused by the change of electric parameters includes the component of electric negative damping torque, which intensifies the variation of turbo-generator speed and causes sub-synchronous oscillation in transmission lines. The frequency of sub-synchronous oscillation is calculated by Fourier analysis method. In the rotor speed control system of turbine generator, the fluctuation of excitation current is reduced by adjusting the frequency synthesis of phase locked loop in excitation system, and a new additional electromagnetic torque is generated, so that the final electrical damping torque component is positive, and the rotor torque is controlled. The simulation results show that the speed of turbine generator does not fluctuate greatly when power grid is disturbed in a short time, and the sub-synchronous oscillation is effectively suppressed.
