Electric power engineering - Modal components in three-phase a.c. systems - Quantities and transformations

IEC 62428:2008 deals with transformations from original quantities into modal quantities for the widely used three-phase a.c. systems in the field of electric power engineering. The examination of operating conditions and transient phenomena in three-phase a.c. systems becomes more difficult by the resistive, inductive or capacitive coupling between the phase elements and line conductors. Calculation and description of these phenomena in three-phase a.c. systems are easier if the quantities of the coupled phase elements and line conductors are transformed into modal quantities. The calculation becomes very easy if the transformation leads to decoupled modal systems. The original impedance and admittance matrices are transformed to modal impedance and admittance matrices. In the case of decoupling of the modal quantities, the modal impedance and admittance matrices become diagonal matrices.

Energie électrique - Composantes modales dans les systèmes a.c. triphasés - Grandeurs et transformations

La CEI 62428:2008 traite des transformations des grandeurs originales en grandeurs modales pour les systèmes a.c. triphasés qui sont largement utilisés dans le domaine de l'énergie électrique. L'étude des conditions de fonctionnement et des régimes transitoires dans les systèmes a.c. triphasés est rendue difficile du fait des couplages résistifs, inductifs ou capacitifs entre les éléments de phase et entre les conducteurs de ligne. Le calcul et la description de ces phénomènes dans les systèmes a.c. triphasés est plus facile si les grandeurs concernant les éléments de phase et les conducteurs de ligne sont transformées en grandeurs modales. Le calcul devient très facile si la transformation conduit à des systèmes modaux découplés. Les matrices d'impédances et d'admittances originales sont transformées en matrices d'impédances et d'admittances modales. Dans le cas où les grandeurs modales sont découplées, les matrices d'impédances et d'admittances deviennent diagonales.

MODAL COMPONENTS IN THREE-PHASE AC SYSTEMS –
QUANTITIES AND TRANSFORMATIONS

1 Scope
This International Standard deals with transformations from original quantities into modal
quantities for the widely used three-phase a.c. systems in the field of electric power
engineering.
The examination of operating conditions and transient phenomena in three-phase a.c.
systems becomes more difficult by the resistive, inductive or capacitive coupling between the
phase elements and line conductors. Calculation and description of these phenomena in
three-phase a.c. systems are easier if the quantities of the coupled phase elements and line
conductors are transformed into modal quantities. The calculation becomes very easy if the
transformation leads to decoupled modal systems. The original impedance and admittance
matrices are transformed to modal impedance and admittance matrices. In the case of
decoupling of the modal quantities, the modal impedance and admittance matrices become
diagonal matrices.

If the original quantities are sinusoidal quantities of the same frequency, it is possible to
express them as phasors and to write the transformation Equations (2) and (3) in an analogue

4.2 Power in modal components
Transformation relations are used either in the power-variant form as given in Table 1 or in
the power-invariant form as given in Table 2.
For the power-invariant form of transformation, the power calculated with the three modal
components is equal to the power calculated from the original quantities of a three-phase a.c.
system with three line conductors and a neutral conductor, where u , u and u are the line-
1 2 3
to-neutral voltages and i , i and i are the currents of the line conductors at a given
1 2 3
location of the network. In a three-phase a.c. system with only three line conductors, u , u
1 2
and u are the voltages between the line conductors and a virtual star point at a given
location of the network.
The instantaneous power p expressed in terms of the original quantities is defined by:

⎛ ⎞

p = u i + u i + u i =()u u u i = u i (7)

NOTE The asterisks denote formally the complex conjugate of the currents i , i , i . If these are real, i , i ,
1 2 3 1 2

i are identical to i , i , i .

If the relationship between the original quantities and the modal components given in
Equation (2) is introduced for the voltages as well as for the currents:
u = T u and i = T i (8)

u = T u = u T, (9)

the power p expressed in terms of modal components is found as:

For the power-variant case where T T is not equal to the unity matrix an example is given
at the end of this section. In case of

The condition TT =E or T = T means that the transformation matrix T is a unitary
matrix.
Because the Equations (7) and (12) have identical structure, the transformation relationship
with a unitary matrix is called the power invariant form of transformation.
In connection with Table 2, the following examples can be given:
p = u i + u i + u i
αβ0 αα ββ 0 0
p = u i + u i + u i
dq0 d d q q 0 0

p = u i + u i + u i = 2Re{u i }+ u i

In case of three-phase systems of voltages and currents the complex power is given in
original phasor quantities as follows:

⎛ ⎞

⎜ ⎟
S = U I + U I + U I =()U U U I = U I (13)

Substituting the modal components by
T T T T ∗ ∗ ∗
()
U = T U = U T and I = T I
M M M
the complex apparent power is found as:
T T ∗ ∗
S = U T T I (14)
M M
T ∗
In case of power invariance, the condition TT =E must also be valid. Then Equation (14)
leads to the following power invariant expression:

⎛ ⎞
I
⎜ M1⎟
T ∗ ∗ ∗ ∗ ∗
⎜ ⎟

⎜ I ⎟

⎝ ⎠
The power-variant forms of transformation matrices are given in the Tables 3 and 5. They are
also known as reference-component-invariant transformations, because, under balanced

– 10 – 62428 © IEC:2008
symmetrical conditions, the reference component (the first component) of the modal
components is equal to the reference component of the original quantities or its complex
phasors, respectively. This is not the case for transformations in a rotating frame.

4.3 Established transformations

The most widely used transformation matrices T and their inverse matrices T are given in
the Tables 1 and 2, whereby Table 1 contains the power-variant (reference-component-
invariant) form and Table 2 the power-invariant form of transformation matrices. The
subscripts for the components are chosen to be equal in both cases of Tables 1 and 2, 3 and
4, 5 and 6.
The Tables 3 to 6 give the relations between the different types of modal components.

5 Decoupling in three-phase a.c. systems
5.1 Decoupling in case of steady-state operation with sinusoidal quantities
Figure 1 gives the example of a three-phase a.c. system with inductive coupling between
three line conductors L1, L2, L3 or three phase elements of a three-phase motor or generator
with the neutral point earthed via an impedance Z .

NOTE Subscripts L1, L2, L3 are introduced for the line-to-neutral voltages at the locations Q or N and for the line
currents (see 3.2).

If the original quantities of Equation (17) are substituted by the modal components using
Equation (2), the following equation is found:
TU = Z T I + T U (18)
MQ L M MN

Equation (18) multiplied with T leads to Equation (19), because TT =E :
−1
U = T Z T I + U = Z I + U (19)
MQ L M MN M M MN

The following modal components are therefore defined:

Z = T Z T (20)

U = T U (21)
MQ LQ
Modal current vector

I = T I (22)

Then Equation (23) is changed to:
−1
U = T Z T I = Z I (26)
MN N M MN M
Table 7 gives the modal voltages and the modal impedances for the symmetrical components
and the αβ0 components in the power-variant (reference-conductor-invariant) and the power-
invariant form in case of phasor quantities under the following conditions:
• Symmetrical system with:
UU= a
UU= a , , from which results: UU++U = 0
L2 Q L1Q L3 Q L1Q
L1Q L2 Q L3 Q
• Impedance matrix cyclic and symmetric:
Z ==ZZ =Z ,
L1L1 L2 L2 L3 L3 A
Z =Z =Z =Z ===ZZZ
L1L2 L2 L1 L1L3 L3 L1 L2 L3 L3 L2 B
• Impedance matrix only cyclic:
Z ==ZZ =Z ,
L1L1 L2 L2 L3 L3 A
Z ==ZZ =Z ,
L1L2 L2 L3 L3 L1 B
Z ==ZZ =Z
L1L3 L2 L1 L3 L2 C
From Table 7 it can be seen, that decoupling is possible if the impedance matrix Z has
L
diagonal cyclic symmetry or, if the symmetrical components are used, also in that case if the

– 18 – 62428 © IEC:2008
impedance matrix Z has only cyclic symmetry. Figure 2 demonstrates this result. A voltage
L
source does not exist in the zero-sequence system.

Figure 2 – Three decoupled systems which replace the coupled three-phase a.c. system
of Figure 1 under the described conditions (see text)
Decoupling is also possible if an admittance matrix, for instance for the line-to-line and the
line-to-earth capacitances, is given instead of the impedance matrix.
5.2 Decoupling under transient conditions
For the coupled three-phase a.c. system in Figure 1 the following differential equation can be
found:
