Converters#

The predefined converter models are presented after the example.

In order to create a custom converter, a new entry can be added to examples/grid/pars/grid_parameter_sets.json under converters following the structure of the existing ones. Required parameters are an unique name for the converter model, dc-link voltage and number of voltage levels.

Example — Adding a converter to grid_parameter_sets.json

"2L_LV_Converter": {
         "Vdc_SI": 750,
         "conv_nl": 2
 }
