Key words: HVDC Power system / HVDC equipment /EMT simulations  

General Context

The intern will join the architecture and systems research department. More precisely, the proposed internship is a part of development framework of a new Electromagnetic Transient (EMT) simulation library dedicated to HVDC equipment e.g. HVDC converters, DCCBs, cables/overhead lines, lightning arresters, earthing, simplified AC/DC network ...

The aim of this library is to consolidate and simplify existing EMT models that were developed in the “architecture and systems” research department to facilitate their use among department members. The internship permits also to harmonize some EMT simulation models, to write descriptions for these “user guide” models and to ensure that they are working properly. During the internship, the candidate will be in contact with department members in order to understand available models. In addition, a draft version “template” will be available for the intern, so he can start the work in best conditions.
