Description

There is MMC converter modified node method and the partition method of DC Line Fault current limiting capacity
Technical field
The present invention relates to protecting electrical power system control field, particularly relate to a kind of DC Line Fault partition method of the direct current system based on MMC converter
Background technology
DC Line Fault isolation is the key technology of flexible direct current system development.During flexible direct current system generation DC Line Fault, fault current is climbed to very large flow horizontal excessively, will have a strong impact on the safe and reliable operation that whole direct current system comprises AC, DC side and converter.In order to ensure the safe and reliable operation of direct current system, requiring quick isolated fault DC line in several milliseconds of fault generation, certain failure separation method namely must be taked to isolate DC Line Fault circuit.
At present, the partition method for direct current system DC Line Fault mainly contains three kinds: realize the isolation to DC Line Fault circuit by tripping AC circuit breaker during (1) DC Line Fault.The method is simple, convenient, but but there is operate time slow, power failure area causes greatly the shortcomings such as whole direct current system power supply reliability reduction.(2) converter is utilized to realize fault clearance.There is the shortcomings such as cost of investment is large, added power dissipation increase in this method.(3) utilize DC circuit breaker directly to excise faulty line, but at present can the high-capacity direct current Circuit breaker technology of quick acting (being generally several millisecond) still immature.
Because fault current during DC system fault is without natural zero-crossing point, therefore DC circuit breaker is difficult to blow-out and successfully excises fault, and current jumbo DC circuit breaker is really generalized to practical engineering application and also there is certain difficulty.For this present situation, be necessary design a kind of effectively, practical and simple and reliable DC Line Fault shielding system and method, guarantee that DC circuit breaker can effectively trip and isolated fault.
Summary of the invention
For the problem that DC Line Fault isolation difficulty in current flexible direct current system is large, the present invention proposes a kind of MMC converter modified node method and partition method based on having DC Line Fault current limiting capacity.
The present invention proposes a kind of have DC Line Fault current limiting capacity based on MMC converter modified node method, comprise multiple MMC converter be made up of submodule, described submodule comprises igbt transistor T 1, T 2and sustained diode 1, D 2, DC capacitor C, connected mode is: the igbt transistor T of one group of parallel connection 1and sustained diode 1, organize igbt transistor T in parallel with another 2and sustained diode 2form series connection; This cascaded structure forms in parallel with DC capacitor C again; It is characterized in that, this system arranges current limliting module in each brachium pontis of MMC converter, and described current limliting module comprises gate-controlled switch T and sustained diode, current-limiting resistance R limiter, connected mode is: the inverse parallel block coupled in series access converter bridge arm that gate-controlled switch T and sustained diode are formed, and the gate-controlled switch that closure and MMC have submodule inside is contrary with diode inverse parallel module direction; Again with current-limiting resistance R limiterin parallel;
Described current limliting module has normal operating condition and failure current limit state two kinds of operating states;
Wherein, when direct current system is normally run, the gate-controlled switch T of the current limliting module in each brachium pontis is in conducting state always; Now the circulation path of bridge arm current in current limliting module is: the gate-controlled switch T in current limliting module or sustained diode, specifically depending on bridge arm current direction; Current-limiting resistance is in the state of being bypassed always;
After DC system fault occurs, according to the actuating signal shutdown switch T that direct current protecting sends; Now fault current can only flow through current-limiting resistance in current limliting module, and namely current-limiting resistance is put in fault loop.
The invention allows for a kind of DC Line Fault partition method with the MMC converter modified node method of DC Line Fault current limiting capacity, the method comprises the following steps:
Step 1, judge whether direct current protecting sends actuating signal;
Step 2, if then current DC system fault occurs, turns off gate-controlled switch T and turns off; Current-limiting resistance R limiterdrop into fault loop;
Step 3, the tripping operation of triggering DC circuit breaker;
Step 4, if not, then current direct current system is in normal operation, and the gate-controlled switch T of the current limliting module in each brachium pontis is in conducting state always.
Compared with prior art, the present invention, by improving the structure of MMC converter, realizes failure current limit fast after DC Line Fault occurs, and finally utilizes DC circuit breaker to excise faulty line.This method greatly reduces the responsiveness of DC circuit breaker and excision capacity requirement.And have the advantages that cost is low, added power dissipation is little.

Embodiment
Below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments, the present invention is described in detail, but practical range of the present invention is not limited thereto.
The DC Line Fault partition method of the direct current system based on modularization multi-level converter of the present invention, particular content comprises:
Certain improvement is carried out to the structure of MMC type converter, namely in each brachium pontis of MMC converter, increases current limliting module, as shown in Fig. 1 (a).Current limliting module adopts gate-controlled switch T and current-limiting resistance R limitermode in parallel.In Fig. 1 (a): T 1, T 2and D 1, D 2be respectively igbt transistor and the fly-wheel diode of a sub-inside modules in MMC; C is the DC capacitor in submodule; T and D then represents igbt transistor in current limliting module and fly-wheel diode respectively, R limiterfor current-limiting resistance.
When direct current system is normally run, in each brachium pontis, the gate-controlled switch T of current limliting module is in conducting state always.Now, the circulation path of bridge arm current as shown in Fig. 1 (b), i.e. current-limiting resistance R limiterbe in the state of being bypassed always, extra power loss can not be produced to normal operation of system.
After DC Line Fault occurs, turn off gate-controlled switch T according to the actuating signal that direct current protecting sends.Current-limiting resistance R limiterdrop into fault loop, now the circulation path of fault current is as shown in Fig. 1 (b).Fault current declines greatly by because of the input of current-limiting resistance.Then DC circuit breaker is utilized to excise faulty line.When this failure separation method makes DC Line Fault, the overcurrent impact of AC, converter and DC side is limited to allowed band.Greatly reduce the requirement to DC circuit breaker responsiveness and excision capacity, make DC circuit breaker can be utilized during DC Line Fault to excise safely and reliably and isolated fault.
Said method specific implementation flow chart as shown in Figure 2.
