Abstract

HVAC power transmission using submarine power cables has limitation of charging current at nominal frequency. Therefore, HVDC power transmission technology has been established. However, a new intermediate technology of Low Frequency AC Transmission is established for transmission of power. This paper deals with the performance of a low-frequency ac (20Hz) transmission system for steady state. The LFAC system is interconnected with the 50Hz grid with a cycloconverter. The wind power from the offshore is in the form of dc, and is interconnected to the LFAC transmission line with a twelve-pulse thyristor inverter. The waveforms at the sending end and receiving end of the transmission line are plotted. The circuit model of LFAC system is simulated in MATLAB/SIMULINK.
