Abstract

Nowadays, the huge demand for long-distance UHVDC transportation prompts research on the super large capacity converter transformer. Especially in China, UHVDC projects are widely built and put into use. This article reviews the history of converter transformer research and introduces details in the design of the converter transformer. The recent advances in the fundamental study of converter transformers such as partial discharge, space charge, and material performance test are also introduced in the article. In the end, this article summarizes the application status of the converter transformer in China and looks forward to its future prospects.
