Conclusions
Due to the complex inter-actions that take place between integrated ac-dc systems, it is presently essential to use a sophisticated simulator to study their behavior. The equivalent simulator model for study must be carefully derived from the actual system to be designed/studied, in keeping with the overall objectives of the study. The representation of the ac-dc systems should be in adequate detail and the study should preferably be carried out with a faithful replica of the real controls of the dc systems.
Due to the economic cost of a simulator study and its potential benefits to the overall system design and performance, the study should be well-planned and professionally executed by well-trained personnel. From the case studies presented in this paper and the experience gained, it can be said that the insight derived from such studies is usually well worth the investment.
