By adjusting the alignment mode of the secondary side pulse, the circuit gain under various working conditions can be finely adjusted, and the circuit gain is prevented from being changed greatly under the condition of forward and reverse flow of energy.

Description

Control method of LLC resonant converter
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of power electronics, in particular to a control method of an LLC resonant converter.
Background
In recent years, high-frequency power electronic technology has been developed, and research on novel power conversion technology in the fields of renewable energy, electric vehicles, electric power traction, and the like has attracted much attention. In the field of power grids, new concepts such as alternating-current and direct-current hybrid transmission and distribution networks, direct-current micro-grids, power electronic transformers, energy routers and the like are continuously proposed, and in the research hotspots and application occasions, DC/DC converters with energy flowing bidirectionally are needed to serve as interfaces among direct-current buses with different voltage levels. Meanwhile, in order to ensure high efficiency and high power density of the DC converter, the DC/DC converter is required to have a certain soft switching capability and an operating frequency as high as possible, and also have an electrical isolation capability. Based on the requirements, the LLC resonant converter serving as a high-efficiency isolated soft switching DC/DC converter has extremely high application potential and value in a DC conversion occasion.
The existing bidirectional control method comprises the following steps:
the method comprises the following steps: when energy flows in the positive direction, the primary side bridge circuit sends square waves to act, and the secondary side is blocked; when the energy flows reversely, the secondary side bridge circuit sends square wave action, and the primary side is blocked. By selecting a proper gain point, an open-loop fixed-frequency square wave mode is adopted.
The gain difference between the forward and reverse operation in this fixed frequency open loop mode is large. That is, the forward operation mode and the reverse operation mode of the LLC bidirectional resonant converter are not consistent, the LLC resonance mode is the LLC resonance in the forward operation mode of the LLC bidirectional resonant converter, the reverse operation mode is the LC resonance, the gain curves of the two are not consistent, it is difficult to consider the gain consistency in the forward and reverse operation modes, which causes the output voltage of the two modes in steady state operation to be inconsistent, and it is not guaranteed that the output voltage maintains a constant value.
Meanwhile, the change of the power flow direction can feed back the direct-current voltage at the output side, namely the abnormal fluctuation of the output voltage is easily caused, even overvoltage faults are caused, the stable output voltage under the condition of working condition switching cannot be realized, and the reliability and the service life of the converter can be influenced. Therefore, in the prior art, through reasonably setting a direct-current voltage threshold for mode switching, hysteresis control is introduced, which results in that the direct-current voltage is not obviously changed in the direction of power current under low power on one hand, and on the other hand, the continuous step change of the output voltage is inevitably caused by the control mode of the direct-current upper and lower hysteresis loops, and finally the steady state is restricted within the hysteresis range, so that the requirement of rapid power current direction switching cannot be met.
In addition, although the method can realize the bidirectional energy flow, the energy flow direction needs to be detected, the energy flow direction is inaccurate or frequently changed, the abnormal fluctuation of the output voltage is easily caused, and the stable operation under the condition switching cannot be realized; frequent conversion requires that converter pulses on the primary side and the secondary side are triggered back and forth, which affects the reliability and the service life of the converter.
The second method comprises the following steps: according to the difference value between the output voltage and the target value, the target frequency of the output is adjusted through an analog or digital controller (such as a PI controller, a fuzzy controller and the like), and the gain of the whole circuit is adjusted by adjusting the operating frequency of the converter, so that the output voltage is stabilized and the power flow control is realized. However, the frequency modulation in an excessively large range easily causes the saturation of the high-frequency transformer, and the normal operation of the resonant converter is affected. The rated operation frequency of the high-frequency transformer is determined when LLC parameters are designed, the deviation from the rated frequency is more, the iron core of the transformer is saturated, a current magnetic field curve is changed, the normal steady-state operation working point of the transformer is changed, the magnetic circuit is saturated, the excitation inductance is rapidly reduced due to demagnetization, overcurrent spikes are caused to cause overcurrent, and the normal operation of the LLC resonant converter is influenced due to the fact that the overcurrent spikes cause overcurrent.
The third method comprises the following steps: and a double-Active-full-Bridge DAB (DAB) control method is adopted to adjust the phase shift angle (including single phase shift, double phase shift and triple phase shift) of the square waves emitted by the converters at two sides, and the output voltage and the transmission power are dynamically adjusted.
The third method is, for example, to adopt the phase shift control of the H-bridge on both sides of the LLC resonant converter, when the direction of the power flow changes, the phase shift angles on both sides are automatically adjusted, to realize the bidirectional control of the power flow, but in the method, because the switching device is turned off at the current maximum, a large loss is generated, which is not conducive to improving the overall efficiency of the LLC resonant converter, increasing the design difficulty of the radiator; when the input and output voltage amplitudes are not matched, the power circulation and the current stress of the converter are greatly increased, so that the loss of a power device and a magnetic element is increased, and the efficiency of the converter is reduced. The double phase shifting and the triple phase shifting can be optimized to a certain degree, but the soft switching within the full load range cannot be guaranteed, and due to the fact that control variables are added, the control algorithm is complex, the current conversion modes of the circuit are numerous, the dynamic performance of closed-loop control is difficult to guarantee, and the engineering implementation is not convenient.

The voltage amplitude of the triangular carrier WTRI is udgFrequency and switching frequency fswAnd the consistency is maintained. Having a fixed voltage amplitude u of the primary modulated wave WTs1And the switching devices of the primary bridge circuit 120 driven by the primary pulse drive signal are turned on/off at zero voltage using any known method.

The same voltage amplitude as the primary side is udgThe triangular carrier WTRI. The secondary side modulation wave WV has a fixed voltage u in each periods22And amplitude regulating voltage us21Wherein the fixed voltage u of the secondary-side modulated wave WVs22Constant voltage u to primary modulated wave WTs1The same is true. That is, the voltage amplitudes of the secondary modulation wave WV are respectively the fixed voltage u of the primary modulation wave WTs1And amplitude regulating voltage us21The two parts are spliced and built.

xModulation frequency f
The modulation frequency f in the present invention will be described belowxAnd (4) obtaining the method.
First, in STEP0 of fig. 2, a mapping set of a plurality of switching frequencies and a plurality of preset modulation frequencies is generated and stored in advance, and the mapping relationship of the mapping set is as follows: when the primary side pulse driving signal has any one of a plurality of switching frequencies, each switching device of the secondary side bridge circuit has the theoretical minimum turn-off current corresponding to a preset modulation frequency. That is, the switching device S of the primary bridge circuit 120 is connected to the primary bridge circuit in advance through off-line simulation and theoretical calculation1-S4Modulation frequency f corresponding to switching frequency within a certain rangexThe theoretical optimum value of (b) is stored.
When the LLC resonant converter 100 is actually operated, STEP1 in fig. 2 is executed to obtain each switching device S in the primary bridge circuit 120 by querying such a mapping set1-S4Of the currently employed switching frequency of the switching devicex0. Can adjust the presetSystem frequency fx0I.e. as the actual modulation frequency fx
Preferably, in order to cope with various factors such as the deviation of LLC parameters, the fluctuation of output voltage, and the dynamic change of the operation mode of the LLC resonant converter 100, STEP2 in fig. 2 is optionally executed to collect the dc output voltage Vout, perform closed-loop adjustment on the target value of the dc output voltage and the actual collected value of the dc output voltage, and generate the modulation frequency fine adjustment amount Δ f of the bidirectional synchronous controlxAnd for Δ fxThe amplitude limiting process is performed and the preset modulation frequency f is set in STEP3x0And the modulation frequency fine adjustment amount delta fxSuperimposed as modulation frequency fx. Therefore, even if the parameters of the resonant inductor Lr, the resonant capacitor Cr and the excitation inductor Lm of the high-frequency transformer have errors and/or real-time fluctuation of the direct-current voltage, the modulation frequency f is adjusted by introducing a closed loop to the direct-current output voltage VoutxAnd certain correction and fine adjustment are carried out, the adaptability of the overall control strategy is improved, and the dynamic change of the load and the energy flow working condition is convenient to deal with. The loss of the LLC resonant converter 100 is maintained at a lower level, and the overall efficiency of the LLC resonant converter is improved.
Secondary side modulated wave WV
At a determined modulation frequency fxThen, STEP4 in fig. 2 is executed, according to the above equation (3) based on the modulation frequency fxRegulating amplitude regulating voltage us21
From the above formula, the switching frequency f of the switching devices of the primary side bridge circuit 120 isswVoltage amplitude u of triangular carrier WTRIdgAnd minimum value T of switch protection timedminIs kept fixed during the operation of the LLC resonant converter, so that the modulation frequency fxCan be adjusted with the amplitude adjustment voltage us21The numerical values of (a) establish a one-to-one correspondence relationship. In other words, by setting the modulation frequency f onlyxTo obtain the required amplitude adjustment voltage us21
After obtaining the amplitude regulation voltage us21Then, STEP STEP5 is executed to make the voltage amplitudes be fixed voltages us21And amplitude adjustmentVoltage us22The secondary side modulation wave WV can be formed by splicing the two parts.
Specifically, the triglag is set to 0 at the rising stage of the triangular carrier WTRIxAA and is set to trifllag 0 in its lower stagexThe rule for splicing the voltage amplitude us2 of the side-modulation wave WV is defined as follows:
Figure GDA0003531513170000091
the triglag is a slope direction flag bit of a triangular carrier, represents the ascending/descending stage of the carrier, and can be set arbitrarily according to actual needs, and the value of the triglag can be distinguished into any value.
In other words, the voltage u is adjusted by adjusting the voltage value and amplitude of the triangular carrier WTRIs2Comparing the voltage of the secondary side modulation wave WV with a fixed voltage us22And amplitude regulating voltage us21To switch between. When the triangular carrier wave WTRI is at the falling edge and the voltage value of the triangular carrier wave WTRI is reduced to be less than the amplitude regulation voltage us21While the voltage of the secondary side modulation wave WV is switched to the amplitude regulation voltage us21(ii) a When the triangular carrier wave WTRI is at the rising edge and the voltage value of the triangular carrier wave WTRI rises to be greater than the fixed voltage us1(equal to a fixed voltage us21) While the voltage of the secondary side modulation wave WV is switched to a fixed voltage us21Otherwise, switching to us22
Then, the same triangular carrier wave can be modulated by the secondary modulation wave and the secondary modulation wave in STEP6 of fig. 2 to obtain the primary side pulse driving signal and the secondary side pulse driving signal, and each switching device S of the primary side bridge circuit is driven by the primary side pulse driving signal in STEP 71-S4Driving each switching device V of the secondary bridge circuit with a secondary pulse driving signal1-V4
The following describes a process of achieving bidirectional operation and reducing the overall loss of the LLC resonant converter by using the secondary-side modulation wave WV generated by the control method of the present invention, with reference to fig. 4 to 6.
As already mentioned above, the modulation frequency f has been determinedxUniquely determine the amplitude regulation voltage us22That is, the square waveform of the sub-side modulation wave WV is determined, the duty ratio, the rising edge, and the falling edge of the sub-side pulse drive signal obtained by the sub-side modulation wave WV on the triangular carrier WTRI can be determined accordingly. I.e. different modulation frequencies fxAnd synchronously turning off (see figure 4a) and synchronously turning on (see figure 4b) corresponding to different pulse widths of the secondary side pulse driving signal and different alignment modes of the primary side pulse driving signal and the secondary side pulse driving signal. Accordingly, the secondary side pulse driving signal can be modulated by setting a single parameter modulation frequency fxThree edge alignment modes of synchronous turn-on (see figure 5a), synchronous turn-on and turn-off (see figure 5b) and synchronous turn-off (see the lowest figure of figure 5) are realized, so that the method is suitable for primary side pulse driving signals which are flexible and changeable and have any duty ratio, and the realization mode is simple.
In the case of first ensuring that the primary bridge circuit 120 realizes the zero-voltage switch ZVS, the main loss of the LLC resonant converter 100 is represented by the turn-off loss of the secondary bridge circuit 140. Thus, by setting the modulation frequency fxDifferent pulse widths of the secondary side pulse driving signal, different alignment modes of the primary side pulse driving signal and the secondary side pulse driving signal can enable each switching device V of the secondary side bridge circuit to be capable of1-V4And the circuit is turned off by the minimum turn-off current, so that the loss of the secondary side bridge circuit 140 is minimized, and the overall efficiency of the LLC resonant converter is improved.
I.e. according to the modulation frequency f of the secondary side modulation wave WVxRegulating amplitude regulating voltage us21So that the respective switching devices V of the secondary bridge circuit 120 driven by the secondary pulse drive signal1-V4With a minimum off current. The primary side pulse driving signal and the secondary side pulse driving signal generated in the above process are respectively applied to the respective switching devices of the primary side bridge circuit 120 and the secondary side bridge circuit 140, so that the primary side pulse driving signal, the secondary side pulse signal, and the resonant current iLrSecondary side current iDWith excitation current iLmAs shown in the figureFig. 5 and 6 show the case of the positive running mode, and fig. 5 shows the case of the negative running mode.
Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, t0Time of day, switching device S1,S4,V1,V4Open, resonant inductorLrAnd a resonance capacitor CrForward resonance, resonant current iLrIs negative, secondary side current iDFrom zero, the primary bridge circuit 120 and the secondary bridge circuit 140 respectively flow through the respective freewheeling diodes, and the respective switching devices S of the primary bridge circuit 1201-S4Realizing zero voltage turn-on and current at t0~t1LC resonance in time period, voltage at two ends of the excitation inductor is clamped by the secondary bridge circuit 140, and the excitation current iLmLinear increase;
t1time of day, switching device S1,S4,V1,V4Off, the current resonates to 0, but the resonant period is not over, the resonant current iLrRe-lifting after zero crossing point, secondary side switch device V1,V4Small current turn-off, secondary side switch device S2,S3The anti-parallel diode of (1) is turned on;
t2at the moment, the LC resonance period is over, and the resonance current i is forcedLrAnd an excitation current iLmDraw to unity, at which point LLC resonance begins, due to Lm>>LrThe current is approximate to a linear straight line, and the secondary side current returns to zero at the stage; according to the principle of symmetry, t3~t6Procedure and t0~t2And the two bridge arms are completely consistent, but the switching devices of the other bridge arm complete corresponding processes of LC resonance, zero voltage switching-on of the primary side, LLC resonance, small current switching-off of the secondary side and the like.
