Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 1, the disclosed embodiment provides a cascaded multilevel conversion device, which is a three-phase inverter including two power modules M1, M2 and four capacitors; a capacitor is connected between the neutral point of each power module and the positive bus and the negative bus; and the output end of each power module is respectively connected with a three-phase stator of the motor.
Specifically, the cascade multi-level conversion device comprises a three-phase inverter consisting of two power modules and four capacitors, wherein the power modules are divided into a power module M1 and a power module M2, each power module is provided with six electrical connection points, and the capacitors are divided into a capacitor C1, a capacitor C2, a capacitor C3 and a capacitor C4. The first electrical connection point and the second electrical connection point of the power module M1 are connected with the capacitor C1, the second electrical connection point and the third electrical connection point of the power module M1 are connected with the capacitor C2, the fourth electrical connection point, the fifth electrical connection point and the sixth electrical connection point of the power module M1 are respectively connected with A, B, C of the three-phase stator of the motor, the first electrical connection point and the second electrical connection point of the power module M2 are connected with the capacitor C3, the second electrical connection point and the third electrical connection point of the power module M2 are connected with the capacitor C4, and the fourth electrical connection point, the fifth electrical connection point and the sixth electrical connection point of the power module M2 are respectively connected with a, b and C of the three-phase stator of the motor. The positive bus of the three-phase multi-level inverter is the first electrical connection point of the power module, the negative bus of the three-phase multi-level inverter is the third electrical connection point of the power module, the neutral point of the three-phase multi-level inverter is the second electrical connection point of the power module, and the three output ends of the three-phase multi-level inverter are the fourth, fifth and sixth electrical connection points of the power module respectively.
Further, it is preferable that the three-phase multilevel converters in the power modules M1 and M2 have the same configuration. Of course, the appropriate three-phase multi-level converter structure can be flexibly selected according to the actual system requirement.
Further, the power modules M1 and M2 are both composed of a set of three-phase multilevel converters. The three-phase multi-level converter can be a three-phase two-level converter, a three-phase three-level converter or a three-phase five-level or even more level converter.
Based on the above device, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for controlling a cascaded multilevel conversion device, where the method for controlling the cascaded multilevel conversion device includes the following steps:
s100: and setting a reference voltage given vector output by the cascade type multi-level conversion device to be the sum of the reference voltage given vectors of the two power modules.
Specifically, the method comprises the following steps:
acquiring a reference voltage vector set required to be output by the cascade multi-level conversion device;
the reference voltage vector which needs to be output by the cascade type multi-level conversion device is given and generated by the cooperation of each power module M1 and M2; namely, it is

In the formula of UrefGiven reference voltage vector, U, to be output by a cascade-type multilevel converterref_M1Given the reference voltage vector generated by the power module M1, Uref_M2Given by the reference voltage vector generated by power module M2.
It can be seen from the formula (1) that the voltage output by the cascaded multilevel converter is cooperatively generated by the power modules M1 and M2, so that the maximum voltage that the whole converter can output is the sum of the maximum voltages that the two power modules can output, and the maximum power that the whole converter can output is also the sum of the maximum powers that the two power modules can output.
The cascade multilevel converter after cooperative control is adopted to output three-phase current without third harmonic, the sine degree is very high, and distortion is avoided; meanwhile, the equivalent switching frequency output by the conversion device can be equal to the sum of the switching frequencies of the two power units through the cooperative control, so that the aim of waiting to the higher equivalent switching frequency by actually adopting the low switching frequency is fulfilled, the switching loss of the two power units is reduced, and the conversion efficiency of the whole cascade type multi-level conversion device is improved.

Specifically, this step is exemplified by a power module M1, in which zero sequence voltage is present

The calculation formula of (2) is as follows:

Figure RE-GDA0003386810020000074
is the minimum value of the three-phase reference voltage vector in the power module M1.
S300: and realizing the control of the midpoint voltage of each power module by a method of superposing the zero-sequence voltage components by the given vector of the reference voltage.
Specifically, the midpoint voltage control of the power modules in this step specifically adopts a power module independent control method, that is, the power modules M1 and M2 are controlled as two independent converters when the midpoint potentials inside the power modules M1 and M2 are controlled; the method of overlapping zero sequence components can be specifically adopted for the point voltage control of each power module, and at this time, it needs to be noted that when the zero sequence components are overlapped, the power modules need to overlap the same zero sequence components at the same time by three phases so as to ensure that the line voltage output by the power modules is unchanged. Adding the three-phase reference voltage vector magnitude and the calculated zero sequence component to obtain a reference voltage given vector after the zero sequence component is superposed:

and

Specifically, the method comprises the following steps:
collecting the voltage of the bridge arm capacitor controlled in each power module and the current direction of the bridge arm capacitor;
selecting a proper redundant switch state according to the voltage closed loop;
controlling the charging and discharging process of the controlled bridge arm capacitor through the state of the redundant switch, realizing the control of the bridge arm capacitor voltage, and acquiring the bridge arm capacitor voltage at the current moment;
the wave equation of the bridge arm capacitance voltage at the current moment is as follows:

wherein Δ T is a current ioAction time of (C)fIs the capacitance value of the bridge arm capacitance, Δ ufxIs the fluctuation amplitude of the bridge arm capacitance voltage u'fxThe bridge arm capacitance voltage at the last moment.

S500: and calculating the common-mode voltage output by each power module according to the reference voltage vector of the superposed zero-sequence voltage component and the bridge arm capacitance voltage.
The common-mode voltage output by the power module has a direct relationship with the switching state output by the power module, and the output common-mode voltages corresponding to different switching states may be different, so that the magnitude of the output common-mode voltage corresponding to each switching state needs to be accurately known, and the switching state of the three-phase output of the power module is set as (v)a,vb,vc)。

In the formula: u. offa、ufb、ufcRespectively representing the capacitance voltage in the three-phase bridge arm corresponding to the power module.
U can be adjusted without considering the voltage of the bridge arm capacitorfa、ufb、ufcThe three bridge arm voltages are idealized to say that the three bridge arm voltages are always equal to E, and then ufa=ufb=ufcIn this case, the calculation of the common mode voltage is simplified, but the calculated common mode voltage does not reflect the actual magnitude of the common mode voltage. Therefore, if the accurate control of the common-mode voltage output by the cascaded multi-level conversion device is to be realized, calculation must be performed according to the reference voltage vector of each power module and the accurate bridge arm capacitance voltage, so that the magnitude of the common-mode voltage of the whole conversion device is suppressed as much as possible.
S600: the common-mode voltage output by the two power modules is controlled to cooperatively suppress the common-mode voltage of the cascaded multi-level conversion device, so that the purpose of suppressing the common-mode voltage output by the cascaded multi-level conversion device is achieved. The specific implementation mode is as follows:
the common mode voltage output by the cascade multi-level conversion device is UcomThe common mode voltage is generated by the power modules M1 and M2 together, i.e.
Ucom=(Ucom_M1+Ucom_M2)/2 (3)
In the formula of Ucom_M1For common mode voltage, U, generated by power module M1com_M2Is the common mode voltage generated by power module M2.
As can be seen from equation (3), there are two methods for completely eliminating the common mode voltage output by the cascaded multilevel converter: firstly, the common-mode voltages generated by the two power modules are both 0, that is, the common-mode voltage generated by the power module M1 and the common-mode voltage generated by the power module M2 are both 0; secondly, under the condition that the common mode voltage is not zero, the common mode voltages generated by the two power modules are completely opposite in magnitude, namely Ucom_M1=-Ucom_M2
An embodiment of the present invention further provides a controller of a cascaded multi-level converter, a topological structure of the cascaded multi-level converter is shown in fig. 1, the controller is connected to two power modules M1 and M2 of the cascaded multi-level converter, the controller acquires voltage and current of the cascaded multi-level converter as feedback signals and sends the feedback signals to the controller, and through operation calculation of a control algorithm provided by the present invention, switching state signals output by each power module in the cascaded multi-level converter are finally obtained, and the obtained switching states are sent to a driving system to control on and off of each power device in the cascaded multi-level converter.
The controller is used for setting a reference voltage given vector output by the cascade multi-level conversion device to be equal to the sum of reference voltage given vectors of the two power modules; calculating respective zero sequence voltage components according to the given vectors of the reference voltages of the power modules; the control of the midpoint voltage of each power module is realized by a method of superposing a zero sequence voltage component on a given vector of a reference voltage; controlling bridge arm capacitance voltages of the power modules based on the voltage closed loop, and acquiring the bridge arm capacitance voltages of each power module; calculating the common-mode voltage output by each power module according to the reference voltage vector of the superposed zero-sequence voltage component and the bridge arm capacitance voltage; the common-mode voltage output by the two power modules is controlled to cooperatively suppress the common-mode voltage of the cascaded multi-level conversion device, so that the purpose of suppressing the common-mode voltage output by the cascaded multi-level conversion device is achieved. Namely, the control method of the cascade multi-level converter provided in the above embodiment is performed.
Fig. 4 shows that the power modules M1 and M2 in the embodiment of the present invention both use three-phase diode-clamped three-level inverters as power module topologies. At the moment, the formed cascade type multi-level conversion device is a cascade type five-level conversion device, and the device can be applied to the field of high-voltage high-power frequency conversion.
The control method of the invention is adopted to explain the control of the cascade multilevel converter under the simulation condition that the power module takes a three-phase diode clamping type three-level inverter as an example, the output voltage of the converter is 6kV, and the power output is 4 MW.
As can be seen from fig. 5, when the cooperative control is adopted, the a-phase output voltage U of the power module M1 M13000V, phase a output voltage U of power module M2M2=-UM1at-3000V, the A-phase output voltage U of the cascade multi-level conversion deviceao=UM1-UM26000V. The level number of the phase voltage levels of the power modules M1 and M2 is only 3, while the level number of the phase voltage levels of the multi-level conversion device is up to 17, and the level number is greatly improved, so that the voltage and power of the whole conversion device are improved, current harmonics output by the converter can be effectively reduced, and the output performance of the conversion device is greatly improved. As can be seen from FIG. 6, the three-phase current output by the conversion device has very high sine degree and no distortion, and the FFT analysis of the three-phase current further verifies the inversionThe output of the converter has the advantages of no third harmonic and equivalent switching frequency superposition. As can be seen from fig. 7, the midpoint voltages of the two power modules are well controlled, and the fluctuation of the midpoint voltages of the two power modules is within ± 25V at a high power output of 4MW, which illustrates the effectiveness of the midpoint potential control method in the present invention.
As can be seen from fig. 8, by using the common mode voltage suppression method of the present invention, the common mode voltage of the cascaded multilevel converter is always zero, which verifies the effectiveness of the common mode voltage suppression method of the present invention.
