- This paper continues the pursuit of getting a deeper understanding regarding the transient stability of low-frequency AC railway power systems operated at 16 2/3 Hz that are synchronously connected to the public grid. Here, the focus is set on such grids with a low-frequency AC high-voltage transmission line subject to a fault. The study here is limited to railways being fed by different distributions of Rotary Frequency Converter (RFC) types. Both auto transformer (AT) and booster transformer (BT) catenaries are considered. No mixed model configurations in the converter stations (CSs) are considered in this study. Therefore, only interactions between RFCs in different CSs and between RFCs, the fault, and the load can take place in this study. The RFC dynamic models are essentially two Anderson-Fouad models of synchronous machines coupled mechanically by their rotors being connected to the same mechani- cal shaft. Besides the new cases studied, also a new voltage-dependent active power load model is presented and used in this study.

- Using low frequency High Voltage Transmission systems (HV-T) in parallel with the catenary systemstrengthens the railway system by reducing the total impedance of the railway grid. A consequence ofthe reduced impedance is that converter stations are electrically closer to each other.Inside a converter station, different types of Rotary Frequency Converters (RFCs) are used. It is not wellexplored how different RFCs behaves and interacts with each other during and after a large disturbance,like a short circuit.The dynamics of an RFC are modelled by using the Andersson-Fouad model of a synchronous machine.The study presented in this paper investigates interactions inside and between converter stations, withdifferent types of RFC, for an HV-T system in parallel with a Booster Transformer catenary system.The numerical simulation results show, for instance, that the main power oscillation take place inside aconverter station with mixed configuration of RFC type after fault clearance.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- One method of strengthening low frequency AC railway grids is to upgrade Booster Transformer (BT) catenary systems, to Auto Transformer (AT) catenary systems. An AT catenary system has lower equivalent impedance compared to a BT system. Thus, an upgrade makes the existing converter stations electrically closer.Converter stations may have different types of Rotary Frequency Converters (RFCs) installed in them, and it is not well explored how different RFCs behaves and interact during and after a large disturbance.Using the Anderson-Fouad model of synchronous machines to describe the dynamics of RFCs, several case studies have been performed through numerical simulations. The studies investigate the interactions within and between converter stations constituted with different RFC types, for BT as well AT catenary systems.The numerical studies reveal that replacing BT with AT catenary systems, results in a more oscillatory system behaviour. This is seen for example in the power oscillations between and inside converter stations, after fault clearance.
