This paper establishes the validity of digital simulation of transients in HVDC-ac power systems. For the digital simulation BPA's EMTP was used. Manitoba Hydro's Nelson River HVDC system comprising two HVDC bipoles, Bipole 1: 1668 MW and Bipole 2: 1000 MW was used for digital simulation test cases. The simulation results were compared with the field tests conducted by Manitoba Hydro. The paper presents a new technique of initialization for digital computer simulation. Direct comparison of the computed results with field tests establishes clearly the validity of simulation. Comparison of the results of this paper with those of Reference (1), shows that both EMTP and EMTDC programs can be used for accurate digital simulation. EMTDC is a new program and it is found to be very efficient and economical for digital simulation.
