Remarks:

Before every part of a problem the maximum rating that can be obtained is indicated (max 300)

First solve the problems for you self on a separate piece of paper and make a neat version
subsequently.

Always show the formulae that are used to make the calculations.

(110) PROBLEM 3

High voltage DC transmission system uses twelve pulse converter arrangement.

(20) 3.1 Draw the twelve pulse converter arrangement scheme and give an explanaition. What is
the transformer ratio for both secondary windings ?

(30) 3.2 Sketch the course of idealized waveforms of twelve pulse converter assuming Ls = 0.

(20) 3.3 What is the reactive power drawn by the converter ?

(20) 3.4 Describe the control of the HVDC converters and the show in the Vd -Id plane the point
of operation of HVDC system. Explain why converter works in rectifier and inverter
mode and which of them controls the current .

(20) 3.5 Space vector: what is the relation between different Park (Clark) transformation
variants and which of them is power invariant .
