[0038] (4) Construct an s-domain node admittance matrix Y(s) of the flexible DC transmission system in the offshore wind farm based on step (3), where

[0039] (5) Calculate a zero root s.sub.0 of a determinant of the node admittance matrix Y(s) of the flexible DC transmission in the offshore wind farm in a frequency range of 1 Hz to 1000 Hz, in other words, solve an equation |Y(s.sub.0)|=0, based on step (4).

[0040] (6) Use above calculated zero roots s.sub.0 of all determinants in step (5) as all resonant modes of the flexible DC transmission system in the offshore wind farm in the frequency range of 1 Hz to 1000 Hz, and determine resonance stability of the system based on distribution of the resonant modes on a complex plane; and if all the resonant modes are located on a left-half part of the complex plane, determine that all the resonant modes are stable and the system has no risk of resonance instability; or if a resonant mode is located on a right-half part of the complex plane, which indicates that the resonant mode is unstable, determine that the system has a risk of resonant instability.

[0041] Next, a flexible DC transmission system in an offshore wind farm is used as an example, as shown in FIG. 2. Resonance stability of the flexible DC transmission system in the offshore wind farm is analyzed.

[0042] Step 1: Establish s-domain impedance models of a doubly-fed wind turbine and a direct-drive wind turbine in the offshore wind farm. A DC-side voltage of a converter generally remains constant. Therefore, the doubly-fed wind turbine and the direct-drive wind turbine each can be decomposed into grid-tied units dominated by a two-level voltage source converter. Based on a principle of frequency component balance, an s-domain impedance model of the two-level voltage source converter can be established. Then, based on the decomposition of the doubly-fed wind turbine and the direct-drive wind turbine, the s-domain impedance models of the doubly-fed wind turbine and the direct-drive wind turbine can be obtained, as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 respectively.

[0043] Step 2: Establish an s-domain impedance model of a flexible DC converter in an offshore converter station. A simulation model of the flexible DC converter (in a V/F control mode) in the offshore converter station is built in electromagnetic transient-state simulation software, a current perturbation component of a certain frequency is injected into an AC side of the flexible DC converter to measure a corresponding voltage perturbation component, a ratio of the current perturbation component to the voltage perturbation component, namely, AC-side impedance of the flexible DC converter, is obtained, a frequency characteristic of the AC-side impedance of the flexible DC converter can be fitted based on results obtained at different frequencies, and the frequency characteristic of the AC-side impedance of the flexible DC converter is converted into the s-domain impedance model of the flexible DC converter based on a correspondence between a frequency domain and an s domain. The frequency characteristic of the AC-side impedance of the flexible DC converter in the V/F control mode is shown in FIG. 5(a) and FIG. 5(b).

[0044] Step 3: Construct an examples-domain equivalent circuit of the flexible DC transmission system in the offshore wind farm. Based on the established s-domain impedance models of the doubly-fed wind turbine and the direct-drive wind turbine in the offshore wind farm, the s-domain impedance model of the flexible DC converter in the offshore converter station, and an example grid structure of the flexible DC transmission system in the offshore wind farm, the example s-domain equivalent circuit of the flexible DC transmission system in the offshore wind farm is constructed, as shown in FIG. 6.

[0045] Step 4: Establish an example s-domain node admittance matrix of the flexible DC transmission system in the offshore wind farm. Based on the constructed example s-domain equivalent circuit of the flexible DC transmission system in the offshore wind farm, all nodes can be numbered first, and then self admittance y.sub.ii and mutual admittance y.sub.ij of the nodes can be filled in according to a numbering sequence. After all the nodes in the system are traversed, the node admittance matrix Y(s) of the system is formed.

[0046] Step 5: Determine an example resonant mode of the flexible DC transmission system in the offshore wind farm and resonance stability of the flexible DC transmission system. The example resonant mode of the flexible DC transmission system in the offshore wind farm is determined, in other words, a zero root of a determinant of the node admittance matrix of the system is obtained. Firstly, a frequency characteristic of the determinant of the node admittance matrix of the system in a frequency range of 1 Hz to 1000 Hz is determined through frequency scanning, and an abnormal frequency point of the system is determined. Then, the abnormal frequency point is used as an initial value of a Newton-Raphson iterative method to obtain a solution iteratively. All resonant modes are obtained and presented in a complex plane coordinate system, and the resonance stability of the flexible DC transmission system in the offshore wind farm is determined based on distribution of the resonant modes. If all the resonant modes are located on a left-half complex plane, it is determined that all the resonant modes are stable and the system has no risk of resonance instability; or if a resonant mode is located on a right-half complex plane, it indicates that the resonant mode corresponding to the determinant is unstable, and it is determined that the system has a risk of resonant instability.

[0047] The example distribution of the resonant modes of the flexible DC transmission system in the offshore wind farm in this implementation is shown in FIG. 7. As shown in FIG. 7, the system mainly has three resonant modes with resonant frequencies being 76 Hz, 113 Hz, and 125 Hz respectively in the frequency range of 1 Hz to 1000 Hz, and the three resonant modes are all located on the left-half complex plane. Therefore, the three resonant modes are stable, and the system has no risk of resonant instability.
