Modular SSTs which can be interpreted as modular multilevel converters with an isolated DC-DC output stage per module, are designed with redundant modules to increase reliability. Usually, each of the three arms operates independently, and therefore, only a fixed number of faulty modules can be compensated in each arm, even if all modules are operational in the remaining two arms. With the proposed zero-sequence voltage injection, up to 100% more faulty modules can be compensated in an arm by employing the same hardware. In addition, module power imbalances are nearly eliminated by utilizing a fundamental frequency zero-sequence voltage. A dominant 3rd harmonic zero-sequence voltage injection in combination with the 5th, 7th and several higher order harmonics with adaptive (small) amplitudes minimize the required arm voltages at steady-state. For nominal operation or symmetrical faults, the proposed technique is equivalent to the well known Min-Max voltage injection, which already reduces the peak arm voltage by 13.4% compared to a constant star point potential. A statistical analysis proves, that the expected number of tolerable faulty modules of the 1MW SST increases by 12% without the need for additional hardware.","lang":"eng"}],"publication":"23rd European Conference on Power Electronics and Applications (EPE'21 ECCE Europe)","doi":"https://doi.org/10.23919/EPE21ECCEEurope50061.2021.9570542","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"main_file_link":[{"url":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/9570542"}],"date_updated":"2022-09-09T12:01:42Z","publication_status":"published","publication_identifier":{"isbn":["978-9-0758-1537-5"]},"author":[{"full_name":"Unruh, Roland","last_name":"Unruh","first_name":"Roland","id":"34289"},{"id":"78801","first_name":"Jarren","last_name":"Lange","full_name":"Lange, Jarren"},{"id":"71291","full_name":"Schafmeister, Frank","first_name":"Frank","last_name":"Schafmeister"},{"full_name":"Böcker, Joachim","first_name":"Joachim","orcid":"0000-0002-8480-7295","last_name":"Böcker","id":"66"}],"title":"Adaptive Zero-Sequence Voltage Injection for Modular Solid-State Transformer to Compensate for Asymmetrical Fault Conditions","year":"2021","citation":{"mla":"Unruh, Roland, et al. “Adaptive Zero-Sequence Voltage Injection for Modular Solid-State Transformer to Compensate for Asymmetrical Fault Conditions.” <i>23rd European Conference on Power Electronics and Applications (EPE’21 ECCE Europe)</i>, IEEE, 2021, doi:<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.23919/EPE21ECCEEurope50061.2021.9570542\">https://doi.org/10.23919/EPE21ECCEEurope50061.2021.9570542</a>.","bibtex":"@inproceedings{Unruh_Lange_Schafmeister_Böcker_2021, title={Adaptive Zero-Sequence Voltage Injection for Modular Solid-State Transformer to Compensate for Asymmetrical Fault Conditions}, DOI={<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.23919/EPE21ECCEEurope50061.2021.9570542\">https://doi.org/10.23919/EPE21ECCEEurope50061.2021.9570542</a>}, booktitle={23rd European Conference on Power Electronics and Applications (EPE’21 ECCE Europe)}, publisher={IEEE}, author={Unruh, Roland and Lange, Jarren and Schafmeister, Frank and Böcker, Joachim}, year={2021} }","ama":"Unruh R, Lange J, Schafmeister F, Böcker J.
