The switching frequency is inversely proportional to the maximum voltage deviation ratio, but a reduced switching frequency will increase the spread of capacitor voltage. When all the capacitors follow the same voltage waveform, the SM capacitor voltage ripple (peak-to-peak value) is determined by Cunico et al. [ 34 ]
At higher frequencies, reactance is smaller, so the capacitor charges and discharges rapidly. In DC circuits, capacitors block current due to infinite reactance. But in AC circuits, capacitors pass current easily at high enough frequencies. The voltage and current are out of phase in an AC capacitance circuit.
To reduce switching frequency of modular multilevel converter (MMC), proper sub-module (SM) capacitor voltage deviations would be allowed in the nearest level control. This study proposes a new method to evaluate the switching frequency and switching losses of MMC with maximum SM capacitor voltage deviation.
The interaction between capacitance and frequency is governed by capacitive reactance, represented as XC. Reactance is the opposition to AC flow. For a capacitor: where: Capacitive reactance XC is inversely proportional to frequency f. As frequency increases, reactance decreases, allowing more AC to flow through the capacitor.
1 and 3 p.u. for the installation in question, i.e. at voltage between 8.16 kV and 24.49 kV.We will now consider two frequencies: the first refers to capacitors switched-in four times a day (f=4
As frequency increases, reactance decreases, allowing more AC to flow through the capacitor. At lower frequencies, reactance is larger, impeding current flow, so the capacitor charges and discharges slowly. At higher frequencies, reactance is smaller, so the capacitor charges and discharges rapidly.
