Abstract :
A new twelve-pulse unit connection model is formulated and solved in the harmonic domain. The model takes into account the effects of generator saliency and saturation, interaction of the converter with the DC system, and variation in the firing and end of commutation angles caused by AC voltage and DC current harmonics. The reactive power control by generator excitation in the absence of converter transformer on-load tap-changers is also modelled. The solution of a test system is validated by means of time domain simulations
