Resumo

This paper presents the Commutation Failure (CF) problem in the High Voltage Direct Current - LineCommutated Converter (HVDC-LCC) scenario in Brazil through the monitoring of Short-Circuit Ratio (SCR), CF indexes, Direct Current (DC) link power, and the use of simulated synchrophasor data. The analysis was performed by training a neural network using data from the year 2020, and its robustness was verified using data from the year 2021 of the Brazilian Interconnected Power System (BIPS). Additionally, an analysis of transient instability in the North-South Transmission Corridor (NSC) will be presented right after the occurrence of CF by monitoring the Lyapunov transient instability margin, with the primary objective of bringing subsidies to the control center operation area according to the severity of the CF occurrence, preventing its propagation and mitigating it through real-time predictive actions, such as power redispatch on DC links and, thus, minimizing the occurrence of CF.
