Description

Capacity reduction operation method and device of modular multilevel converter
Technical Field

Background
The high-voltage direct-current transmission technology based on the voltage source converter, particularly the modular multilevel converter, is called as flexible direct-current transmission in China, and due to various advantages, more and more attention is paid to the high-voltage and extra-high-voltage direct-current transmission technology. The advantages of the inverter are due to the low inertia of the power electronics. The direct-current side voltage of the converter is supported by the capacitance voltage of the input sub-modules through controlling the corresponding power electronic devices, the volume of the converter station is determined by the number of the sub-modules and the volume of each sub-module, and the capacitance of the sub-modules for storing energy accounts for 80% of the volume of the sub-modules. With the increasing transmission voltage level and transmission capacity, in addition to considering some common problems such as stability of the MMC converter station, the problem of increasing the occupied area of the converter station becomes very prominent due to the increase of the volume of the sub-module capacitor capacity. And the manufacturing cost of the capacitor is not a small proportion for the sub-modules. In order to keep the ripple of the capacitor within a certain range, that is, to reduce the capacitance value of the capacitor, the capacitance reduction operation method of the modular multilevel converter in the prior art mainly suppresses the negative-sequence circulating current component of the bridge arm through the control strategy of the secondary system, so as to reduce the ripple amplitude of the capacitor voltage of the sub-module, and further achieve the purpose of reducing the capacitance value of the capacitor. However, the method needs a very complex control algorithm to achieve the purpose of circulation suppression, and the proportion of the negative sequence circulation component is small, so that the capacity reduction effect of the method is poor.
