Summary: With the rapid development of new energy technology, there is an increasing number of grid-connected systems and switching control frequency, making the operation state of the power grid more complicated. This paper proposes a real-time simulation design based on FPGA to monitor the operation of the power grid. The simulation module achieves an accuracy of about 3% relative error while maintaining real-time performance.

Summary: This article introduces a topology-aware matrix partitioning (TA-MP) method for accurate real-time simulation in high-frequency applications. The method uses an implicit numerical algorithm to ensure stability and employs iterative methods to solve implicit equations. By partitioning the PES matrix into blocks with topological meanings and constructing a constant iterative matrix using its constant diagonal blocks, the TA-MP method bypasses the limitations of using iterative methods in real-time simulations. The method eliminates the need to store inverse matrices and only requires matrix-vector multiplications, making it efficient on FPGA.

Summary: In this study, a unified equivalent model was designed for modular multilevel converters (MMCs) to address the problems of high switch numbers, complex working mechanisms, and complicated real-time simulation. The proposed model decouples the submodules that do not affect each other, reducing the number of prestored parameters and optimizing the execution unit structure. The real-time simulation results verified the effectiveness of the model and hardware improvement, and the accuracy of the simulation was validated by comparing with the offline MATLAB/Simulink results.
