A fault calculation method for large-scale photovoltaic integrated transmission systems by Hongyue Ma, Tao Zheng, Tao Zhang, Zhiguo Hao

“…Subsequently, the positive sequence equivalent principle for the large-scale PV transmission system is customized based on the symmetrical component method and is integrated with the composite sequence network under various fault conditions. More importantly, a time-/phasor-domain alternating calculation method is developed, which effectively addresses the nonlinear control loops while simultaneously reducing the complexity of fault calculations in multi-IBR systems. …”
