Design considerations of series type hybrid circuit breaker (S‐HCB)

IET Power Electronics
The series‐type direct current (DC) hybrid circuit breaker (S‐HCB) concept was previously reported to offer better performance than solid‐state circuit breakers (SSCB) and hybrid circuit breakers (HCB).

High speed protection of medium voltage DC distribution system using modified mathematical morphology

IET Renewable Power Generation, Volume 16, Issue 14, Page 3134-3148, 26 October 2022., 2022
Abstract One of the challenging issues in the realization of medium‐voltage DC (MVDC) distribution system is high‐speed protection scheme design against quickly rising short circuit fault‐DC current. This paper proposes a high‐speed protection scheme based on the processing of energy signals through mathematical morphology (MM). The voltage and current

An optimal phase control method for the suppression of phase sequence exchange impulse current and voltage

IET Power Electronics, Volume 15, Issue 5, Page 412-421, 8 April 2022., 2022
Abstract Phase sequence exchange (PSE) is an emerging emergency control method for power systems. However, PSE will generate impulse current and voltage. In this research, to suppress the impulse of PSE, a phase control method for zero‐current opening and equal‐voltage closing is adopted, and verified via both physics and experiments.

Novel power electronic device for power angle stability control

The Journal of Engineering, Volume 2022, Issue 4, Page 447-451, April 2022., 2022
Abstract This letter proposes a novel phase sequence exchange (PSE) device. When the generator loses synchronization and the power angle gradually increases, the primary side of the contact line is disconnected and quickly connected in a staggered phase using the power device with fast breaking characteristics.

Overview of grounding schemes for solid‐state transformers in distribution networks

IET Generation, Transmission &Distribution, Volume 15, Issue 22, Page 3081-3099, November 2021., 2021
Abstract Proposed to be the critical enabling component for future distribution networks, solid‐state transformers (SSTs) have drawn much attention lately. They have a massive potential to help reduce size and weight, improve efficiency, integrate microgrids, renewables and energy storages in distribution systems, and can fulfil multiple grid functions

Design criteria of solid‐state circuit breaker for low‐voltage microgrids

IET Power Electronics, Volume 14, Issue 7, Page 1284-1299, 20 May 2021., 2021
Abstract Solid‐state circuit breakers (SSCB) show great promise to become the key element in the protection of low‐voltage direct current microgrids. SSCBs operate in the microsecond range and employ semi‐conductor devices that have strict safe operation area limits.
