    HVDC transmission provides advantages over long distance AC transmission. HVDC uses converter stations to convert AC to DC for transmission and back to AC at the receiving end. This allows power to be transmitted over longer distances with lower losses compared to AC. Additionally, HVDC transmission provides benefits like greater control of power flow direction and reduced environmental impacts. While HVDC systems require costly converter equipment, recent advances have improved reliability and feasibility making it a viable option for transmitting large amounts of power over long distances.

    HVDC TRANSMISSION

    Subhada Sahoo Regd No:0811013055 Sec-A Electrical Engg

    INTRODUCTION
    Nowadays large blocks of power are needed to be transmitted. There arises some technical problems of transmitting power to such a long distance using AC. In the view of the draw backs of AC the HVDC transmission has come into picture. The first DC link was set up in 1954 between Swedish main land and the island of Gotland. The use of an HVDC link in an AC system requires converter stations at each end of the line.

    ADVANTAGES
    Advantages of DC Transmission

    AC Transmission

    Technical Advantages
    Environmental impact is smaller System stability Dont increase short circuit power Fast change of energy flow Lesser Corona Loss and Radio interference

    Greater Reliability
    No limits in transmitted distance

    Direction of power flow can be changed very quickly

    Economic advantages

    DC lines and cables are cheaper than AC lines or cables.

    The towers of the DC lines are narrower, simpler and cheaper compared to the towers of the AC lines.

    Line losses in a DC line are lower than the losses in an AC lines.

    AC-System Vs DC-System

    Monopolar link

    Bipolar Link

    HVDC Technology
    Conversion of electrical current from AC to DC at

    transmitting end and DC to AC at receiving end.


    Can be achieved in 3 ways:

    1.Natural commutated converter 2.capacitor commutated converter 3.Force commutated converter

    Components of Transmission
