Experimental Evaluation on the Influence of RCD Snubbers in a 3-Level Thyristor Based MLCR CSC

Multilevel current reinjection (MLCR) concept provides self-commutation capability to thyristors, enabling thyristor based current source converters (CSC) to operate under negative firing angle. It also lowers the input current harmonic distortion. This is achieved by using an auxiliary reinjection...
