Real time simulators play a major role in R&D of Offshore wind farm connected modular multilevel converter (MMC)-HVDC system. These simulators are used for testing the actual prototype of controllers or protection equipment required for the system under study. Modular multilevel converter comprises of number of sub modules (SMs) like Half/ full bridge cells. While computing time domain Electromagnetic transients (EMTs) with the system having large number of SMs pose a great challenge. This computational burden will be more when simulated in real time. To overcome this, several authors proposed equivalent mathematical model of MMC. This paper proposes the real time simulation start-up of offshore wind farm connected modular multilevel converter (MMC)-HVDC system. This paper also describes about how the above said systems is simulated in OPAL-RT based Hypersim software.
