The power supply system provided by the embodiment of the application can be applied to power supply of the data center, is a power supply system of the data center, and is not limited to power supply of the data center. In this embodiment of the present application, N power supply modules may be disposed in parallel in the power supply system.
In the power supply system shown in fig. 3, N is 4, and in a specific implementation, the value of N may be any positive integer greater than 4, for example, the value of N may be 5 or 6.
The power supply structure of each power supply module may be the same, or one or more of the power supply parameters may be the same. The power supply parameters may include: maximum output power, maximum output current, maximum output voltage, average output power, average output current, rated output power, rated output voltage, and rated output current.
When the structures of the power supply modules are the same and the power supply parameters are the same, the normal operation of the power supply system is convenient to maintain.
In this embodiment, one load module includes N-1 power supply branches, and one power supply branch is connected to one load.
The rated output power of the single power supply module is larger than the average power required by one load module. Therefore, each power supply module can be provided with surplus power except for supplying power to the power supply module normally, and the surplus power is transmitted to the power supply bus as well, so that redundant backup of power supply is realized, and the continuity of power supply is ensured. Meanwhile, each power supply module is connected to at least four power supply branches, so that each power supply module is in a power supply state, the situation that the load rate of the power supply module is zero cannot exist, and the application efficiency of the whole power supply system is ensured relative to a power supply system comprising the power supply modules with pure redundancy backup.

In a word, the UPS can store the residual electric quantity through the storage battery in the UPS, and continuously supplies power to the load under the condition of short-time power failure.
In some embodiments, one of the power supply branches is connected to one of the first type of UPS.

In the power supply system, the mth load module comprises a second type UPS whose output forms a common backup bus and is connected to any UPS static bypass of the rest load modules in series cold backup mode
However, unlike the first type of UPS, both the main and static bypass inputs of the first type of UPS are connected to a power bus that is not protected by the UPS. Therefore, when a main circuit of one UPS in the load module fails, and meanwhile, when the mains supply is abnormal, the second type UPS can be continuously switched to the static bypass power supply after the discharge of the battery is finished, the power of the static bypass is output from the public bus of the upper UPS, and the static bypass power supply is protected by the upstream UPS. Therefore, the introduction of the second type UPS enables the power supply system to be more stable, and the uninterrupted power supply is further improved.
Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of a power supply system including a second type UPS.

The third type of UPS belongs to the UPS like the first type of UPS and the second type of UPS, but the third type of UPS is connected to the rear end of the power supply module and is positioned in front of the load module.
Therefore, the N-1 power supply branches of one power supply module share one third type UPS, the number of the UPSs and the hardware cost of the UPS system are reduced, and meanwhile, the power supply continuity is ensured due to the introduction of the third type UPSs.

Several specific examples are provided below in connection with any of the embodiments described above:
example 1:
compared with a distributed redundant (Distributed Redundant, DR) power supply system, the power supply system combined with a public backup (Reserve Redundant) ensures that each power supply loop of the load has the double-circuit power supply redundancy characteristic, and improves the reliability of power supply.
Compared with a public backup redundancy design, the system has no independent public redundancy power supply module, and each power supply module has public redundancy, so that the equipment of each power supply module is loaded, and the efficiency of the key power supply, the cable, the transformer and other equipment is higher.
The distributed public backup buses are used for supplying power, so that the backup power supply loops of each distributed redundant DR power supply module come from different power supply modules, and the backup reliability is improved.
The present example power supply system diagram may be as shown in fig. 4. The load of the power supply system provided by the present example may be an IT load. The power supply of the IT load is configured as a dual power supply. The power supply module shown in fig. 4 is composed of a mains supply, an ATS and a backup generator through a transformer. Wherein, the ATS output is configured with a plurality of sets of UPS to form a distributed redundancy (Distributed Redundant) mode. In fig. 4, there are 4 power supply modules, and each of the 4 power supply modules includes ATS, numbered ATS1, ATS2, ATS3, and ATS4. The UPS connected with the rear end of each power supply module corresponds to the first type UPS, and the serial numbers are respectively: UPS 1, UPS 2, UPS 3, and UPS 4. The power supply branch is provided with STS, and the serial numbers are respectively: STS 1A, STS 1B, STS C; STS 2A, STS 2B, STS C; STS 3A, STS 3B, STS C; STS 4A, STS 4B, STS C. The power supply branch where STS 1A, STS 1B, STS C is located belongs to a load module. The power supply branch where STS 2A, STS 2B, STS C is located belongs to a load module. The power supply branch where STS 3A, STS 3B, STS C is located belongs to a load module. The power supply branch where STS 4A, STS 4B, STS C is located belongs to a load module.
As shown in FIG. 4, the distributed redundancy ratio is 3N/2, that is, 3 UPS sets form a pairwise cross distributed power supply to IT loads, redundant power of the power supply modules forms a common backup bus, and any UPS bypass of the rest power supply modules is supplied with power. Therefore, in the embodiment of the application, if there are N power supply modules, there are N common backup buses, and compared with a single common backup bus, the bypass power supply of each UPS in the power supply module has the phenomenon of low failure rate.
It can be seen that the UPS's under each group of power modules are distributed redundant, with the main path of each UPS coming from the corresponding power module and the bypass inputs coming from different common backup buses, respectively. Taking the power supply module of ATS1 as an example, the main and bypass power sources of UPSs 1A to 1C are shown in table 1.

N-1 independent stand-alone UPS is configured below each power supply module to form the framework of DR power supply system, and meanwhile, redundant power can form the public backup bus of other power supply buses.
And the static bypass of the UPS under each set of power supply module is respectively connected with the public backup buses of the rest N-1 power supply modules.
Compared with a DR power supply system, the power supply system combines a public backup mode, so that each power supply loop of the load has the double-circuit power supply redundancy characteristic.
And the backup power supply loop of each distributed redundant DR power supply module is powered by a distributed public backup bus and is from different power supplies.
Example 2:
under the power supply module composed of each set of ATS and the commercial power and generator, a distributed redundancy (Distributed Redundant) mode is formed by a plurality of sets of UPS, as shown in figure 5, wherein one set of UPS forms a common backup bus to supply power to the UPS of the other power supply modules.
The power supply structure of the power supply system has the following characteristics:
there are N sets of power supply modules, as in fig. 5, 4 sets of modules (transformer, low voltage generator, ATS).
