Abstract
A ride-through and recovery method for DC short circuit faults of a hybrid modular multilevel converter based high-voltage direct current transmission (MMC-HVDC) system, the hybrid MMC including multiple full-bridge sub-modules and half-bridge sub-modules, and the method including: 1) detecting whether a DC short circuit fault occurs, and proceeding to step (2) if yes and continuing detecting if no; 2) realizing ride-through of the DC short circuit fault; 3) detecting whether a DC residual voltage increases, and proceeding to step (4) if yes and continuing detecting if no; and 4) realizing DC short circuit fault recovery.
