Itsoptimal operation, however, is not inherent. The power flow in distribution network can suffer from congestiondue to the line impedance of the system. Thus, a device that can regulate the power flow is regardedimportant. Several works have proposed DC-DC transformer and series voltage source type of power flowcontrol device for HVDC application. DC-DC transformer, however, needs to be rated at full grid power.Meanwhile, series voltage source type for HVDC requires an additional connection to either nearby AC networkor other lines. This thesis presents a function and requirements validation of a novel power flow controlconverter (PFCC) which only requires partial power rating with respect to the grid rating, needs no additionalconnection to other lines, and can regulate power flow in four V-I quadrants. The proposed topology ableto performs power regulation with a fraction of grid power in all of the quadrants both in simulation andexperiment.
