The invention discloses a voltage equalization control method for optimizing the average switching frequency of MMC. Taking the optimization method of sub-module rotation number as the core, the marked input group and the input group are reordered to form a reordering group, and a reordering group is selected from the reordering group. The sub-modules are set to cut off, and the sub-modules that are not selected and set as cut-off in the marked input group are set to be turned on, which effectively avoids the situation that the voltage of individual sub-modules in the input group is higher or lower than the voltage of individual sub-modules in the cut-off group. The non-essential sub-modules are switched in turn, which can not only ensure the voltage equalization effect, but also reduce the switching frequency of the MMC system. On the basis of the submodule rotation number optimization method, the present invention determines whether the submodule rotation number optimization program needs to be started under actual operating conditions by adding a pre-judgment, so that the switching frequency can be further reduced.

Description

Voltage-sharing control method for optimizing average switching frequency of MMC (Modular multilevel converter)
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of power transmission and distribution of a power system, and particularly relates to a voltage-sharing control method for optimizing the average switching frequency of an MMC (modular multilevel converter).
Background
Modular Multilevel Converters (MMC) are different from two-level and three-level converters, and a mode of cascading a plurality of submodules is adopted, so that the modular multilevel converter has the advantages of high expansibility, high output waveform quality, low loss and the like, and gradually becomes a research hotspot in the field of high-voltage direct-current power transmission. With the continuous improvement of the capacity and the voltage grade, the number of the sub-modules and the power semiconductor devices in the high-voltage large-capacity MMC system is also increased rapidly, so that the problem of the operation loss of the converter valve is increasingly highlighted.
At present, MMC-HVDC systems which are put into operation at home and abroad widely adopt nearest level approximation modulation (NLM) and sequencing voltage-sharing control strategies. The method has the advantages of simplicity, convenience, easy use and high reliability, and is particularly suitable for the application field of high-voltage large-capacity MMC with high level number. Under the traditional sorting and voltage-sharing strategy, the submodule in the MMC bridge arm is quickly switched according to the reference voltage change of the bridge arm and the current direction of the bridge arm, and the balance control of capacitance energy is realized through the charge and discharge of a capacitor. In this way, the small capacitance transient energy difference during normal operation of the MMC can cause high-frequency switching of a large number of sub-modules, which generates high switching loss, and restricts the application of the method to a certain extent. In order to solve the problems, scholars at home and abroad provide a series of improved voltage-sharing methods, which comprise various voltage-sharing strategies of introducing a retention factor, an energy balance factor and a double retention factor, setting a maximum voltage deviation threshold of a submodule capacitor voltage, setting upper and lower limits of the submodule capacitor voltage and the like.
On the basis of the research, plum blossom, etc. of the institute of electrical technology of the Chinese academy of sciences put forward a practical engineering voltage-sharing control strategy with low switching frequency, and the switching frequency of the MMC system is optimized by fixing the module alternation number of each control period. The method is simple and easy to implement, and the switching frequency can be quantitatively calculated. However, since the number of module rotation in each control cycle is fixed, the switching states of the submodules in the bridge arm cannot be dynamically adjusted under different conditions, many unnecessary submodules can be alternately switched, and the switching frequency still needs to be further optimized.
Disclosure of Invention

when Δ nref < 0, N was selected in the cut-off group according to the charge-discharge state of MMCbThe submodules with the minimum or the maximum capacitor voltage are marked to form a mark input group, NbRepresents a fixed number of rotations; the marked drop groups are then reordered from the drop group to form reordered groups, and | Δ nref | + N is selected from the reordered groupsbAnd the submodules with the largest or smallest capacitor voltage are set to be cut off, and the submodules which are not selected and set to be cut off in the mark input group are set to be input, so that the number of necessary switching submodules is ensured, and the optimization of the number of the submodule turns is realized.
Preferably, before the number of the sub-module rotations is optimized, a pre-judgment is further performed:
if xmin(k+1)＝xmin(k)，xmax(k+1)＝xmax(k)，ΔUmax(k+1)<ΔUmax(k) If the three conditions are met simultaneously, the capacitor voltage tends to be converged, and only necessary switching is performed; if the three conditions cannot be met at the same time, optimizing the rotation number of the sub-modules;
wherein x ismin(k +1) represents the submodule number, x, in the present period in which the capacitor voltage is the smallestmax(k +1) represents the number of the submodule with the largest capacitance voltage in the period; x is the number ofmin(k) The sub-module number, x, representing the minimum capacitor voltage in the previous cyclemax(k +1) represents the submodule number with the largest capacitance voltage in the last period; delta Umax(k +1) represents the maximum capacitance voltage difference value in the period; delta Umax(k) Representing the maximum capacitor voltage difference of the last periodThe value is obtained.
Preferably, when Δ nref ≧ 0, before the excision group marker is input, the following determination is also made: judgment of NOFF≥Δnref+Nb,NON≥NbWhether the two are true at the same time; if yes, putting the mark of the resection group; if not, performing necessary switching;
when Δ nref < 0, before the excision set markers are applied, the following judgment is also made: judgment of NON≥Δnref+Nb,NOFF≥NbWhether the two are true at the same time; if yes, putting the mark of the resection group; if not, performing necessary switching;

Detailed Description
Referring to a circuit topology of the MMC, as shown in fig. 1, each bridge arm includes a plurality of sub-modules, each sub-module includes a capacitor, a diode, and an IGBT, and a sub-module voltage is a capacitor voltage. The voltage-sharing control method for optimizing the average switching frequency of the MMC takes the submodule rotation number optimization method as a core, eliminates unnecessary submodule rotation switching, can ensure the voltage balancing effect, and can reduce the switching frequency of the MMC system. On the basis of the optimization method of the number of the sub-module rotations, the invention determines whether the optimization program of the number of the sub-module rotations is needed under the actual operation condition by adding the preposed judgment, and can further reduce the switching frequency. The following will specifically describe with reference to the pre-judgment and the optimization of the number of sub-module rotations.
A voltage-sharing control method for optimizing an average switching frequency of an MMC, as shown in fig. 2, includes the following steps:
step 1: and sequencing the capacitor voltages of all the sub-modules, and dividing the sub-modules in the same bridge arm into an input group and a cut-off group. Referring to fig. 2(a), the numbers of the maximum value and the minimum value of the capacitor voltage recorded in the present period and the previous period are respectively: x is the number ofmax(k+1)、xmin(k+1)、xmax(k)、xmin(k) The maximum capacitor voltage difference values of the submodules in two adjacent periods are respectively as follows: delta Umax(k+1)、ΔUmax(k) In that respect Judging logic xmin(k+1)＝xmin(k)，xmax(k+1)＝xmax(k)，ΔUmax(k+1)<ΔUmax(k) When the three conditions are met simultaneously, only necessary switching is carried out, and only the switching number of the sub-modules with stable MMC alternating current and direct current voltage output is needed, so that the system can be stable and has a voltage-sharing effect; if not, performing necessary switching and optimized switching alternately, namely performing the alternation number optimization of the sub-modules.
Step 2: the average switching frequency is extremely low and is the lower limit of the MMC switching frequency, the MMC alternating current and direct current output voltage is only stable, and the logic judgment flow chart is shown in figure 2 (b). The specific switching condition is as follows: when bridge arm current iarm>And when 0, judging the difference value delta nref of the number of the modulation output conducting modules of the adjacent periods. If Δ nref>0, selecting the submodules with the minimum voltage of delta nref in the submodule cutting group to be set as the switching-in state. On the contrary, when Δ nref<And when 0 is needed, selecting the submodules with the largest voltage of delta nref from the submodules put into the group, and setting the submodules to be in the cutting-off state. When bridge arm current iarmWhen the value is less than or equal to 0, if Δ nref>0, selecting the submodule with the largest voltage in the cutting group to be set as the on state, and conversely, when the voltage is equal to the voltage of the submodule, setting the submodule to be in the on state<At 0, selecting the submodule with the smallest voltage of delta nref from the input group and setting the submodule to be in an off state.
And step 3: necessary switching + optimized alternate switching. The voltage-sharing method used in the existing engineering effectively reduces the average switching frequency of the MMC by fixing the number of module turns of each control period on the premise of ensuring the voltage-sharing effect. The method performs N besides the necessary sub-module rotation in each control periodbAnd the sub-modules are rotated to ensure the voltage balance of the sub-modules. But each period N is changed according to the working condition and the system parameterbThere is an unnecessary rotation in the fixed rotation number, which is not good for the capacitor voltage equalization and increases the switching frequency of the MMC. The optimized rotation method improves the voltage-sharing method on the basis, eliminates the corresponding unnecessary rotation condition, can dynamically adjust the rotation number according to the real-time working condition and the parameter change, and obviously reduces the average switching frequency of the MMC. The specific optimization strategy is as follows: the necessary switching + optimization rotation 1, and the logic judgment flow chart is shown in fig. 2 (c). When bridge arm current iarm>0. When Δ nref is not less than 0, NOFF、NONJudging N for the number of sub-modules of the cutting group and the putting group in the bridge arm of the previous periodOFF≥Δnref+Nb，NON≥NbWhen established, Δ nref + N was selected from the excision groupbMarking the module with the minimum voltage as input, and selecting N from the submodules of the actual input and the marked inputbThe module with the largest voltage is set to be switched off.
And 4, step 4: necessary switching + optimization rotation 1. When bridge arm current iarm>0. When Δ nref is not less than 0, N is judgedOFF≥Δnref+Nb，NON≥NbIf the voltage is not satisfied, selecting the modules with the minimum voltage of delta nref from the excision group as input;
and 5: necessary switching + optimization rotation 1. When bridge arm current iarm>0、Δnref<When 0, judge NON≥Δnref+Nb，NOFF≥NbWhen true, select N from the excision setbMarking the module with the minimum voltage as input, and selecting N from the submodules of the actual input and the marked inputbThe block with the largest voltage of + | Δ nref | is set to be off.
Step 6: must be usedTurn 1 is switched + optimized. When bridge arm current iarm>0、Δnref<When 0, judge NON≥Δnref+Nb，NOFF≥NbIf the voltage is not satisfied, selecting | delta nref | modules with the maximum voltage from the input group to be set as cut-off;
and 7: the necessary switching + optimization rotation 2, and the logic judgment flow chart is shown in figure 2 (d). When bridge arm current iarmWhen the value is less than or equal to 0 and delta nref is greater than or equal to 0, judging NOFF≥Δnref+Nb，NON≥NbWhen established, Δ nref + N was selected from the excision groupbMarking the submodules with the maximum voltage as inputs, and selecting N from the submodules with the actual inputs and the marked inputsbThe module with the smallest voltage is set to be cut off;
and 8: necessary switching + optimization rotation 2. When bridge arm current iarmWhen the value is less than or equal to 0 and delta nref is greater than or equal to 0, judging NOFF≥Δnref+Nb，NON≥NbIf the voltage is not satisfied, selecting the sub-modules with the largest voltage of delta nref from the excision group as input;
and step 9: necessary switching + optimization rotation 2. When bridge arm current iarm≤0、Δnref<When 0, judge NON≥Δnref+Nb，NOFF≥NbWhen true, select N from the excision setbMarking the module with the maximum voltage as input, and selecting N from the submodules of the actual input and the marked inputbThe block with the smallest voltage of + | Δ nref | is set to be cut off.
Step 10: necessary switching + optimization rotation 2. When bridge arm current iarm≤0、Δnref<When 0, judge NON≥Δnref+Nb，NOFF≥NbIf the voltage is not satisfied, the module with the minimum voltage of | Δ nref | is selected from the input submodules and is set to be cut off.
In this embodiment, as in the judgment logic in fig. 2(a), the numbers of the maximum and minimum values of the capacitor voltages in the current period and the previous period and the maximum capacitor voltage difference value of the bridge arm sub-module are recorded as follows: x is the number ofmin(k+1)、xmax(k+1)、xmin(k)、xmax(k)、ΔUmax(k+1)、ΔUmax(k) In that respect When x ismin(k+1)＝xmin(k)，xmax(k+1)＝xmax(k)，ΔUmax(k+1)<ΔUmax(k) When the three conditions are met simultaneously, only necessary switching is carried out. According to the judgment condition, the number of the submodule corresponding to the maximum value and the minimum value of the voltage of the capacitor in the bridge arm is the same as the number of the previous period, the voltage sequence of the submodule in the bridge arm can change after the submodule is charged (or discharged) in one period, and N is needed to be carried out in the traditional voltage-sharing method at the momentbThe sub-modules rotate. Suppose that bridge arm current i at this timearm>0, if the sub-module voltage sequence is not rotated, the voltage difference delta U of the maximum capacitor of the sub-module can be known through charging in one period according to the sub-module voltage sequencemaxIn a decreasing trend, the sub-module voltage still tends to be stable. Bridge arm current iarmThe case of ≦ 0 is similar. The fixed number of turns at this moment is not beneficial to the voltage-sharing effect, and the switching frequency of the MMC system is increased. And on the premise of meeting the requirement of stable output of the MMC alternating current and direct current voltages, the switching frequency can be effectively reduced compared with the voltage-sharing method in the prior engineering, the alternation condition of the sub-modules under the judgment condition is shown in figure 3, and the alternation result shows that the capacitance of the sub-modules is still close to convergence only by performing the necessary alternation under the condition.
In this embodiment, a logic judgment flow chart of necessary switching + optimization rotation 1 is shown in fig. 2 (c). N is a radical ofOFF、NONThe number of the sub-modules of the same bridge arm cutting group and the same bridge arm throwing group in the previous period is respectively. When bridge arm current iarm>0. When Δ nref is not less than 0, N is judgedOFF≥Δnref+Nb，NON≥NbWhen the method is established, the practical fixed alternate voltage-sharing method in the existing engineering selects delta nref + N in the excision groupbSelecting N in the input group according to the module input with the minimum capacitor voltagebCutting off the module with the maximum capacitor voltage, wherein the selected delta nref + N in the cut-off group exists according to different MMC operation conditions and system parametersbThe voltage of the sub-module capacitor is larger than N selected from the input groupbThe capacitor voltage of each sub-module. At this time, if the stator sub-modules are alternated, the voltage difference of the bridge arm sub-modules can be increased, which is not favorable for the voltage balancing effectMeanwhile, the switching frequency of the MMC system is increased, and the switching belongs to alternative switching of unnecessary submodules. The proposed voltage-sharing control method for optimizing the average switching frequency of the MMC selects delta nref + N from the cut-off groupbMarking the module with the minimum voltage as input, and selecting N from the submodules of the actual input and the marked inputbThe module with the largest voltage is set to be switched off.

The submodule fixing and alternation at the moment is not beneficial to the voltage balancing effect of the bridge arm submodules, and meanwhile, the switching frequency of the MMC system is increased, so that unnecessary submodule alternation switching is realized. The proposed voltage-sharing control method for optimizing the average switching frequency of the MMC selects N from the cut-off groupbMarking the module with the minimum voltage as input, and selecting N from the submodules of the actual input and the marked inputbThe block with the largest voltage of + | Δ nref | is set to be off.

The alternation condition of the sub-modules under the judgment condition is shown in figure 4, compared with the practical fixed alternation voltage-sharing control method in the prior art, the optimized voltage-sharing control method provided by the invention effectively avoids the unnecessary alternation condition existing in the prior art, and further reduces the number of the alternation conditionThe switching frequency of the MMC is lowered.
In this embodiment, a logic judgment flow chart of necessary switching + optimization rotation 2 is shown in fig. 2 (d). N is a radical ofOFF、NONThe number of the sub-modules of the cut-off group and the put-in group in the same bridge arm in the previous period is respectively 1 through necessary switching and optimization alternation.
