Detailed Description
The invention is further described below. The following examples are only for more clearly illustrating the technical aspects of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
The invention provides a fault-tolerant operation method under a fault of a submodule of a modularized multi-level converter, which comprises the following steps:
firstly, establishing a mathematical model of a sub-module based on a topological structure of a bidirectional high-voltage direct-current transmission (VSC-HVDC) system of a modularized multi-level converter (MMC);
then, according to the topological structure of the bidirectional high-voltage direct-current transmission system based on the modularized multi-level converter (MMC) and the mathematical model of the submodule, a system fault-tolerant operation (FTO) algorithm based on controlling the direct-current side voltage is provided, and the direct-current side voltage (V DC ) Dropping to a new steady state value;
finally, comprehensively considering that the harmonic distortion rate of the MMC output alternating-current voltage is in a reasonable range, and the reduction range of the direct-current bus voltage is limited by the modulation ratio m, and adopting an on-load voltage regulating transformer OLTC to regulate the alternating-current power grid voltage to realize fault-tolerant operation.
Referring to fig. 1, a topology structure diagram of a high-voltage direct-current transmission system at two ends based on a Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) is shown, wherein both ends of the converter are connected with an alternating-current power grid, and an MMC control structure is adopted. Taking the left structure as an example (the right structure is similar and therefore will not be described in detail): v sabc 、i sabc Is an alternating current network voltage,A current; the PLL is a phase locked loop; obtaining a d-axis component and a q-axis component through abc-dq coordinate transformation; v d 、i dThe reference value is d-axis voltage, current component and current component; v q 、i q 、/>The reference values are q-axis voltage, current components and current components; v (V) DC Is a direct current voltage; />Is a direct current voltage reference value; p (P) 1 For active power of AC network, P 1 * Is an active power reference value; v is AC network voltage, V 1 * Is an ac voltage reference. The controller is of a double closed-loop control structure (PI control is adopted), the outer ring controller adopts direct-current voltage control or active power control, the output is a d-axis current reference value, and the active power is controlled; and controlling and outputting a q-axis current reference value by adopting alternating voltage to control reactive power. The inner loop control is controlled by feedforward decoupling (ω is grid angular frequency, L s For ac sensing inductance) outputs d, q-axis voltage value v sd 、v sq After dq-abc coordinate transformation, PWM modulation is adopted, and the working states of all sub-modules of the MMC are controlled through a sequencing algorithm.
The controller 1 area and the controller 2 area are similar, and when electric energy flows from the 1 area (2 area) to the 2 area (1 area), the controller 1 area (2 area) will perform V DC Control and ac bus voltage vcontrol, the controller 2 zone (controller 1 zone) will perform active power pcontrol and ac bus voltage vcontrol.
The MMC circuit structure is shown in fig. 2, the converter is provided with 6 bridge arms, and each bridge arm is formed by connecting a reactor and N sub-modules SM-1 and SM-2 … … SM-N in series. Wherein R is arm 、L arm The resistor and the inductor are bridge arm resistors and inductors; r is R s 、L s The resistor and the inductor are the alternating current side resistor and the inductor; v sj 、i sj Is AC side voltage and current; v jkn And C jkn Is the output voltage and capacitance of each sub-module, where subscript j e a, b, c represents the phase, k e U, L represents the upper leg (U) and lower leg (L) of each phase j, N = 1,2, …, N represents the sub-module number. Fig. 3 shows a topology of a specific sub-module, and T1 and T2 represent switches.
Considering the large capacity power transfer between zones 1 and 2, for ease of analysis, consider the case where power flows from the transmitting side (VSC 1) to the receiving side (VSC 2), where the VSC1 needs to control the dc side voltage V DC And an ac bus voltage v s1 VSC2 needs to control active power P 2 And an ac bus voltage v s2
Fig. 4 shows a circuit diagram of the equivalent of each phase of an MMC connected to an ac power supply. V (V) DC The voltage of the direct current bus is represented, the point O is a neutral point, i Uj And i Lj Representing the current flowing in the upper and lower legs of phase j, where j e a, b, c, i circ,j Represents the circulating current of phase j, v cjkn The capacitor voltage of the nth sub-module of the j-phase k bridge arm is represented by S jkn E0, 1 is the switch state of the nth sub-module of the j-phase k bridge arm in the system, and the voltages of the upper bridge arm and the lower bridge arm generated by the MMC in the j-phase are given by the following formula:
assuming that O is the midpoint of the dc bus, applying kirchhoff's voltage law to the upper and lower legs of the MMC yields:
the corresponding kirchhoff current law is used for 'j', and the following is obtained:
the circulating current in each loop is given by:
theoretically, the steady-state nominal voltage on each sub-module capacitance is equal to V Cjkn =V DC N. But in a practical system V CjUn A cross-current ripple will be generated based on this nominal voltage:
upper bridge arm (p) jU ) And lower arm (p) jL ) The instantaneous power expression of (2) is as follows:
v jO is formed by peak value of + -V DC M-level alternating voltage generated by MMC of/2. Consider v only jO And i sj Is obtained by the following fundamental component:
wherein m is the modulation ratio, ω is the AC grid angular frequency, θ is the phase angle, I m Is the peak value of the current. Substituting equation (9) and equation (5) into equation (8), the bridge arm power can be written as:
as seen from equations (10) and (11), since the DC power component is zero, i circ Should have a direct current component, i as can be seen from fig. 4 circ-DC =I DC /3,I DC Is the current of the direct current side of the converter. Other terms indicate that the bridge arm power has an oscillating power, including fundamental and second order frequency components. The fundamental frequency component corresponds to the ac grid line current. The second order harmonic component is caused by the oscillating power. The higher harmonic component can be found in the bridge arm power considering higher harmonics in the MMC output voltage and current, but with smaller amplitude compared to the fundamental and second harmonic components. Thus i circ,j With dc components, second and other higher order even harmonic componentsCan be written as:
the bridge arm current in equation (5) can be written as:
the ac component will cause voltage fluctuations in the capacitor voltage, which can be derived from the voltage-current relationship across the capacitor from substituting equations (13) and (14) into equation (7), equations (15) and (16):
wherein C is capacitor capacitance, V CjUn (0) And V CjLn (0) Is an initial value. In addition, device voltage drops can also lead to voltage ripple. i.e circ Control helps reduce second order ripple in the capacitor voltage but increases i sj And i circ The third harmonic and higher order harmonic components of (c) also increase.
Based on the above circuit structure, a Fault Tolerant Operation (FTO) algorithm for a system is proposed, wherein the system works with lower performance during fault, see fig. 5, specifically as follows:
firstly judging whether each phase submodule has fault, and supposing that F exists in upper bridge arms of a phase, b phase and c phase respectively a ,F b ,F c And the individual sub-modules fail. Then bypass F in lower bridge arms of a phase, b phase and c phase respectively a ,F b ,F c And normal operating sub-modules. Thus, the number of effective submodules in the a phase, b phase and c phase in the fault is N-F respectively a 、N-F b And N-F c
The voltage of the sub-module needs to be detected in real time during normal operation, when the voltage value of the failure sub-module is seriously deviated from the voltage of the normal sub-module, the failure of the sub-module is obtained, and the number of the sub-modules with failures of each phase can be counted by utilizing a program.
If the upper bridge arm and the lower bridge arm simultaneously fail, the bridge arm with more sub-modules fails is used as a reference, and the other bridge arm is bypassed, so that the number of the normal sub-modules of the upper bridge arm and the lower bridge arm is ensured to be the same, and the balance of the upper bridge arm and the lower bridge arm is ensured.
In general, F max Not exceeding 15% of the number N of sub-modules.
Let F max Is F a ,F b And F c Is the maximum value of (a). To maintain the voltage across the sub-module at a set levelWithin the counting value, the direct current bus reference voltage V during fault DCF The design is carried out according to the formula (17):
wherein V is DCF Is the reference value of the DC bus voltage during the fault. In this way, the nominal voltage of the submodule capacitor during a fault will be limited to that defined by V CjUn =V DC /(N-F max ) Within the design values given, the most sub-modules in the bridge arm fail at this time. And each phase operates by using symmetrical sub-modules in the upper bridge arm and the lower bridge arm, and the analysis in the normal operation is still effective under the fault-tolerant operation condition of the MMC. A 10% increase or decrease in dc bus voltage is acceptable, depending on the criteria for hvdc transmission.
On the other hand, in order to make the harmonic distortion rate of the MMC output AC voltage within a reasonable range, the reduction range of the DC bus voltage is limited by the modulation ratio m, where m is shown in formula (18) from formula (9), where V jO V is jO Amplitude, v jO Is formed by peak value of + -V DC The M-level alternating voltage generated by MMC of/2 is the measured value.
V DC Is the voltage of the direct current bus under normal operation.
Detecting the voltage of a direct current bus in real time, and when the voltage of the direct current bus is reduced by more than 10 percent and m is more than or equal to 1, reducing the voltage of an alternating current power grid by using an on-load voltage regulating transformer (OLTC) to control the modulation ratio to be within the range of 0.7 < m < 1 so as to realize fault-tolerant operation; when the direct-current voltage rises by more than 10% and m is less than or equal to 0.7, the modulation ratio is controlled within the range of 0.7 < m < 1 by using an on-load voltage regulating transformer OLTC to raise the voltage of the alternating-current power grid so as to realize fault-tolerant operation. As shown in fig. 1, the on-load voltage regulating transformer OLTC is connected in series to the ac side of the MMC converter.
During the step-up or step-down using the on-load tap-changing transformer OLTC, OLTC adjusts the tap position in steps of 2.5%.
The validity of the proposed control strategy is verified by simulation as follows.
The system simulation parameters are shown in table 1.
TABLE 1
The capacitance voltage across each sub-module was 1.6kV, so an Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) device rated at 3.3kV was selected. The capacitance value is selected by limiting the ripple of the dc capacitance voltage of the submodule to within 10%. The generation of second harmonic resonance is avoided by selecting a suitable bridge arm inductance. A recent level modulation method (NLM) with an average switching frequency less than 250Hz is used. As shown in fig. 1, a phase locked loop is used to keep the converter synchronized with the ac grid. Dynamic response ratio V of converter current loop dc1 、P 2 、Q 1 And Q 2 The dynamic response is faster. Therefore, the control structure internally uses a current controller with higher bandwidth for external V dc1 And P 2 A controller with a smaller bandwidth is used. In the simulation, to simulate a fault, a bypass IGBT switch is connected to the output of the submodule. In normal operation, this switch is closed. By detecting v Cjkn Faults can be detected.
Considering the general case of a submodule failure in the controller VSC-1, in the controller VSC-1 there are two submodule failures in the a-phase upper leg (F a =2), there are 1 sub-module faults in the arm on phase b (F b =1), no submodule failure of leg on c-phase (F c =0). The dc voltage waveform is shown in fig. 6. In fig. 6, the HVDC system is operating normally. At t=0.6 s, a fault occurs. As shown in FIG. 6, V DC Reference value of (2)Reduced to (22/24) V DC =0.92V DC . As shown in FIG. 6, V DC The controller uses about 0.06s to correct the voltage to the new reference value of 0.92V DC . Although the three phases of the controller VSC-1 are running at different levels, v a1 、v b1 And v c1 Is unchanged. v a1 、 v b1 And v c1 The THD value of (c) was increased by only 0.1%. a phase capacitance voltage is from V DC N=1.667 kV down to 0.92V DC 0.92 n=1.667 kv, phase b capacitance voltage from V DC N=1.667 kV down to 0.92V DC 0.95n=1.6kv, phase c capacitance voltage from V DC N=1.667 kV down to 0.92V DC N=1.53 kV. In addition, V DC2 The variation of (2) has no effect on the output voltage and line current of the controller 2 region; the d-axis and q-axis components of the VSC-1 and VSC-2 currents are tracking reference values with zero steady state error.
