What challenge/problem are you trying to solve through your application:
This model presents the power up gradation of existing EHV ac line corridor by using set of single phase transformers as bank, for converting lines into composite ac-dc power transmission line. There is no need of alteration in conductors, insulator strings or towers of the
original line.
How does your application solves the above mentioned challenge/problem:
With the model proposed in this project, it will be possible to load these lines close to their thermal limits. The
transmission lines are allowed to carry usual AC along with DC superimposed on it.
Description of Project:
Over the years, rising electricity demand, depleting fossil fuels, costly power evacuation infrastructure and technology innovation has urged concerned stakeholder towards recently proposed concept of simultaneous ac-dc power transmission that enables the long EHV ac lines to be loaded close to their thermal limits. The conductors are allowed to carry certain amount of dc current superimposed on usual ac.
