Description

Five-level ANPC full-bridge isolation DC-DC converter and control method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of direct current-direct current converters, and particularly relates to a five-level ANPC full-bridge isolation DC-DC converter and a control method thereof.
Background
A dual active bridge (Double Active Bridge, DAB) isolated DC-DC converter is one of the preferred circuits for constructing DC transformers. The bridge arm structure of the traditional DAB isolation DC-DC converter is usually an H-bridge circuit, and the voltage stress born by each switch tube is the DC bus voltage. The bidirectional DC-DC converter with the structure is difficult to realize application under high-pressure conditions under the limitation of the voltage-resistant level of a switching tube. In addition, the high-voltage-resistant switching tube has the problems of high switching loss and low switching frequency, and the improvement of the performance and the efficiency of the converter is limited.
In high voltage high power applications, DAB converters employ multi-level topologies. The five-level active neutral point clamped (5Level Active Neutral Point Clamped,5L-ANPC) full bridge topology is capable of reducing voltage stress and has excellent performance in medium-voltage high-power applications. The 5L-ANPC full-bridge topology is introduced into the DAB converter, so that more control degrees of freedom can be provided, the control flexibility is enhanced, and the DAB performance is improved. The 5L-ANPC DAB converter needs to perform balance control of the midpoint potential. Because of the parameter dispersion of the switch device and the direct current side capacitor and the influence of external disturbance, the midpoint voltage of the direct current bus of the converter is easy to diverge, and if no measures are taken, the circuit cannot work normally, and even the circuit is damaged. In addition, if the DAB converter (5L-ANPC DAB) is constructed directly using the 5L-ANPC full-bridge topology, there is a dead zone effect in the dead zone time at two adjacent half-cycles, resulting in a jump from zero level to non-zero level in the ac output voltage of the 5L-ANPC full-bridge, and an increase in system electromagnetic interference (Electromagnetic Interference, EMI). Therefore, it is necessary to introduce a new topology to acquire more switching states to eliminate such dead zone effects and to ensure that the midpoint potential of the circuit stabilizes at half the dc bus voltage.

In the present invention, the terms "first," "second," and the like in the description and in the drawings, if any, are used for distinguishing between similar objects and not necessarily for describing a particular sequential or chronological order.

Referring to fig. 1, in conjunction with fig. 2 to 9, a detailed description will be given of the five-level ANPC full-bridge isolated DC-DC converter in this embodiment.
Referring to fig. 1, the five-level ANPC full-bridge isolated DC-DC converter includes a main circuit and a control drive unit. The main circuit comprises a transformer and active bridges respectively connected to two sides of the transformer, and a 5L-ANPC full-bridge circuit is arranged in at least one active bridge.
In the full-bridge circuit of 3,5L-ANPC, a switching tube S which is sequentially connected in series in the forward direction is arranged between the positive electrode and the negative electrode of a DC side bus 9 、S 1 、S 2 、S 3 、S 4 And S is 10 A switching tube S which is sequentially connected in forward direction in series is arranged between the E1 and the E2 5 And S is 6 A switching tube S which is sequentially connected in forward series is arranged between F1 and F2 7 And S is 8 E1 is S 1 And S is 2 E2 is S 3 And S is 4 F1 is S 9 And S is 1 F2 is S 4 And S is 10 Is connected to the connecting point of (c).
See5A-5C, the 5L-ANPC full-bridge circuit has three zero states, an O1 state, an O2 state, and an O3 state. S in O1 state 1 -S 10 The switch states of (a) are as follows: 0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,1,1, as shown in fig. 5A. S in O2 state 1 -S 10 The switch states of (a) are as follows: 1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,1, as shown in fig. 5B. S in O3 state 1 -S 10 The switch states of (a) are as follows: 1,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,0,0, as shown in fig. 5C. Wherein 0 represents an off state and 1 represents an on state.
The control driving unit is used for controlling the on-off of each switching tube, so that the O3 state in the 5L-ANPC full-bridge circuit is an intermediate state for switching between the O1 state and the O2 state, and the switching between the zero state and the non-zero state is realized through the O1 state and the O2 state.
FIG. 2 is a topology of a five-level active neutral point clamped full bridge circuit commonly used in converters, which, unlike the 5L-ANPC full bridge circuit of the present embodiment, does not include a switching tube S 9 And S is 10 Its switch tube S 1 、S 4 Is directly connected with the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the direct current side bus respectively.

By such zero shapeThe state switching mode effectively eliminates dead zone effect and reduces electromagnetic interference of the system on one hand; on the other hand, the current in the O3 state has two parallel flow paths, so that the loss of the switching tube is reduced to a certain extent, and the O3 state is taken as a main zero state, so that the system loss can be reduced, and the efficiency is improved.

Will output V O The switching state of a level is referred to as zero state, and the switching state of the other level output is referred to as non-zero state. In the 5L-ANPC full-bridge circuit, the PP state is shown in FIG. 6A, the P1 state is shown in FIG. 6B, the P2 state is shown in FIG. 6C, the P3 state is shown in FIG. 6D, the NN state is shown in FIG. 6E, the N1 state is shown in FIG. 6F, the N2 state is shown in FIG. 6G, and the N3 state is shown in FIG. 6H.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the control driving unit is configured to control and drive a switching process of a switching state of the 5L-ANPC full-bridge circuit in one period to: o3- & gtO 1- & gtP 2- & gtP 3- & gtP 1- & gtPP- & gtP 1- & gtP 3- & gtP 2- & gtO 1- & gtO 3- & gtO 2- & gtN 3- & gtN 1- & gtNN- & gtN 1- & gtN 3- & gtN 2- & gtO 3. Under the modulation strategy, the modulation waveform of each switch tube is shown in FIG. 7, wherein G 1 -G 10 Representing a switching tube S 1 -S 10 T is set as the driving signal of (1) s Representing an output period, T hs Representing half of the output period.
All switching processes between different switch states of the same output voltage level, including O1-O3-O2, P1-P3-P2, N1-N3-N2, can be considered as switching processes between a single current path state and a dual current path state. Taking O1-O3-O2 switching as an example, when the zero state is switched from O1 to O3, the switching tube S is turned off first 2 、S 9 And S is 10 Then turn on S 1 、S 5 、S 7 . During the handover process, S 2 、S 9 And S is 10 Is zero current off (zero current switching turn-off, ZCS-off). And at S 1 、S 5 、S 7 If the influence of parasitic capacitance of the switching tube is considered in the switching-on process, the switching-on speed of the low-voltage tube is higherFast S 1 、S 5 Will precede the high-pressure tube S 7 Turn on, thus S 7 Is approximately zero voltage on (zero voltage switching turn-on, ZVS-on); in high power applications, the parasitic capacitance of the switch tube is generally negligible, S 1 、S 5 、S 7 Are ZVS-on. When the switching state O3 is switched to O2, the switching tube S is turned off first 4 、S 6 And S is 8 Then turn on the switching tube S 3 、S 9 And S is 10 。S 4 、S 6 And S is 8 During shutdown, the tube drop remains at 0, thus turning off at zero voltage (zero voltage switching turn-off, ZVS-off). If neglecting the influence of parasitic capacitance of the switching tube, the switching tube S 3 、S 9 And S is 10 The current remains zero during the turn-on process, thus turning on for zero current (zero current switching turn-on, ZCS-on). The switching process of P1-P3-P2 and N1-N3-N2 can be analyzed in a similar way, so that the switching process between the single current path state and the double current path state can realize the soft switching action of the switching tube without generating switching loss.
For switching process between switching states of different output voltage levels, including O1-P2, P1-PP, O2-N2, N1-NN, only in switching tube S 5 And S is 6 There is a hard switching loss on the upper. Therefore, under this modulation strategy, the switching tube S is switched on 5 And S is 6 The switching tube is arranged as a SiC tube, and the rest of the switching tubes are arranged as Si tubes. On the one hand, when the zero level and the non-zero level are output, the current flows through the switch tube S 5 And S is 6 Thus S 5 And S is 6 The on-state loss generated on the silicon carbide is more remarkable than that of other low-voltage switching tubes, and the SiC device generally has better on-state performance than that of the Si device and is used for S 5 And S is 6 The on-state loss can be reduced to the greatest extent; on the other hand, based on the modulation strategy, switching losses are concentrated in S during all switching processes 5 And S is 6 In this way, the hard switching operation is concentrated on the SiC device, and switching loss can be greatly reduced.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the control driving unit is used for controlling and driving the 5L-ANPC full-bridge circuitThe switching process of the switch state in one period is as follows: o3- & gtO 1- & gtP 3- & gtPP- & gtP 3- & gtO 1- & gtO 3- & gtO 2- & gtN 3- & gtNN- & gtN 3- & gtO 2- & gtO 3. Under the modulation strategy, five levels can be output when the converter operates normally, and meanwhile, the operation performance of the converter is improved. In the respective switching states given in table 1, I always has two current paths in the P3, N3 and O3 switching states, with lower on-state losses, regardless of the direction of the output current I. Therefore, in the present modulation strategy, the P3 switch state is selected as the output V P The main switching state of the level is N3 switching state as output V N The main switching state of the level is selected from the O3 switching state as the output V O The main switching state of the level.
Under the two modulation strategies, the high-voltage switch tube S 7 、S 8 、S 9 And S is 10 All are soft switching operations, so DAB converters can still achieve higher switching frequencies even in high voltage class applications.
Taking the experimental parameters shown in table 2 as an example, the five-level ANPC full-bridge isolation DC-DC converter based on the 5L-ANPC full-bridge circuit is taken to describe the performance of the converter in this embodiment. When the provided converter works in a steady state, the experimental result is shown in fig. 8, and it can be seen that the five-level voltage waveform without level jump can effectively reduce electromagnetic interference. By applying the modulation strategy in this embodiment, the midpoint potential waveforms of the B1 and B2 sides are shown in fig. 9, and it can be seen that the midpoint potential on both sides is stably controlled to be about 200V and 160V, the stabilizing effect is good, the midpoint potential ripple on the primary side is lower than 1V, and the midpoint potential ripple on the secondary side is lower than 7V.
TABLE 2
