Abstract:
A device controls a load flow in an alternating-voltage network. The device is distinguished by a module series circuit of two-pole switching modules that can be inserted in series into a phase line of the alternating-voltage network. Each switching module has an energy store and controllable power semiconductors that can be switched on an off and each switching module can be controlled in such a way that a switching-module voltage can be produced at the poles thereof, which switching-module voltage corresponds to a positive or negative energy-store voltage or a voltage having the value of zero. A control apparatus for controlling the switching modules is provided, which control apparatus is configured to control the switching modules in such a way that a periodic longitudinal voltage can be produced at the module series circuit. A method for controlling a load flow in an alternating-voltage network is performed by the device.

Claim (Index 27):
A method for controlling a load flow in an alternating-voltage network, which comprises the steps of:\n providing a modular series connection of bipolar switching modules which has been inserted into a phase line of the alternating-voltage network, wherein each of the bipolar switching modules has poles, an energy-storage device and power semiconductors that are capable of being driven and capable of being switched on and off, and capable of being driven in such a manner that at the poles a switching-module voltage can be generated that corresponds to a positive or negative energy-storage voltage or to a voltage having a value zero; and providing a control device driving the bipolar switching modules in such a manner that a periodic longitudinal voltage is generated at the modular series connection.
