Zusammenfassung: | An electrical converter has an alternating-voltage side with at least two alternating-voltage terminals and a direct-voltage side. At least two series connections connected in parallel and each forming a converter arm of the converter assigned to one of the alternating-voltage terminals. Circular currents can flow between the series connections. According to the method, a load value describing the thermal load of the converter is calculated based on: an active power current value that indicates the active power current component of a phase current flowing across one of the alternating-voltage terminals; a reactive power current value that indicates the reactive power current component of the phase current flowing across the alternating-voltage terminal; and a circular current value that indicates the magnitude of the circular current(s) flowing between the series connections. The converter is controlled while also taking into account this load value. |
