Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The invention belongs to the technical field of flexible DC transmission of power systems, and particularly relates to a converter control method and device.

BACKGROUND

Flexible DC power transmission is an important technical means for realizing mass multi-point collection of renewable energy, efficient utilization of clean energy and flexible consumption, and is an important technical support for rapid development of energy Internet. In the case of networking realized by flexible DC transmission systems, stable operation under island or weak systems is of great importance for fulfilling flexible networking and consumption of renewable energy.

Flexible DC transmission projects which have been put into operation at present generally adopt one converter or two converters having AC sides connected in parallel. In consideration of the requirements for the reliability and stability of continuous operation of the systems, bipolar flexible DC transmission systems formed by two converters having the AC sides connected in parallel are the future development direction of flexible DC transmission.

The flexible DC transmission systems are more suitable for being accessed to a new-energy island or passive system thanks to their power transmission flexibility; in this case, the bipolar flexible DC transmission systems is required to provide a stable AC voltage having a stable AC voltage magnitude and frequency, and thus, a converter station on the new-energy island side generally adopts voltage-frequency droop control. However, by adoption of such control method, the power input to the AC side of the converter from a new-energy station is uncontrollable, which may lead to overload of the converter due to excessive power from the new energy station, and if this is the case, the active power supplied by the converter to a DC power grid should be quickly decreased, which may otherwise cause converter blocking due to an excessively high voltage of the DC power grid and may even, in severe cases, result in damage to the converter and various expensive switch devices on a DC circuit.

In consideration of the above problems and existing immature methods for controlling converters accessed to new-energy island weak power grids or passive systems for engineering applications, it is necessary to develop a technical control scheme combining island control and overload control for engineering applications.

The protection scope of the invention is not limited to the following embodiments.

According to a converter control method of the invention, the AC sides of two converters are connected in parallel, and the specific topological structure of the two converters is shown in FIG. 1. Each converter serves as a pole, and the two converters constitute a bipolar flexible DC system. In the island operation embodiment shown in FIG. 2, the AC bus sides of the two converters are connected with a new-energy island wind power plant. To guarantee stable operation of new-energy islands, each polar converter in the bipolar flexible DC system adopts voltage-frequency droop control, and a stable AC voltage magnitude and frequency are supplied to the new-energy island wind power plant.

The converters in the bipolar flexible DC transmission system in FIG. 2 absorb active power provided by the wind power plant, and the two converters are respectively referred to as a converter 1 and a converter 2. In this embodiment, power absorbed by the converters from the AC sides is defined as positive power and is displayed by a per-unit value, the reference value of the per-unit value is the rated capacity of each converter, and the limit value of active power absorbed by the AC sides of the converters is set as P_lim. During stable operation, the measured active power absorbed by the AC side of the converter 1 meets P_s1<P_lim and the measured active power absorbed by the AC side of the converter 2 meets P_s2<P_lim.

If the output of the wind power plant constantly increases, the converter 1 will be overloaded first, and at this moment, as illustrated by FIG. 3 which is an overload control block diagram, the control mode of the converter 1 is automatically switched to active-wattless power control from voltage-frequency droop control, and the converter 2 is stilled maintained at voltage-frequency droop control. In this case, the maximum active power P_lim absorbed by the AC side of the converter 1 is the rated capacity of the converter 1, that is, P_lim=1 pu, and the maximum permissible wattless power to be exchanged under the active power P_lim is Q_lim according to a power circle diagram. If the active overload limit reference value of the converter 1 is set as P_{ref_oll1}=P_set1=0.5 pu<P_lim and the wattless overload limit reference value is set as Q_{ref_oll1}=Q_set1=0 pu, and the measured active power absorbed by the AC side of the converter 1 is finally stabilized to P_s1=0.5 pu. At this embodiment, the converter 2 is still maintained at voltage-frequency droop control, and after the converter 1 is overloaded and an overload logic is executed, the converter 2 is made to work in any one of the following three conditions, and the control mode of the overload logic in this embodiment is introduced below:

At this moment, the active power absorbed by the converter 2 is 1 pu, the converter 2 is not overloaded, the converter 1 may exit from the overload logic, and the control mode of the converter 1 may be switched to voltage-frequency droop control from active-wattless power control.

(2) The converter 2 is overloaded and the total active power absorbed by the AD sides meets P_oll=1.9 pu≤2 pu

At this moment, the active power absorbed by the converter 2 is 1.4 pu, the converter 2 is overloaded, the overload logic of the converter 1 is maintained, that is the converter 1 is maintained at active-wattless power control, the active overload limit reference value of the converter 1 is adjusted to meet P_{ref_oll1}=P_set1+(P_oll−P_s1−P_lim)=0.5+(1.9-0.5-1)=0.9 pu<P_lim, and the active power absorbed by the converter 2 is decreased to 1 pu. After the two converters become stable, the measured active power absorbed by the AC side of the converter 1 meets P_s1=0.9 pu, and the measured active power absorbed by the AC side of the converter 2 meets P_s2=1 pu. At this moment, the converter 1 may exit from the overload logic, and the control mode of the converter 1 may be switched to voltage-frequency droop control from active-wattless power control.

(3) The converter 2 is overloaded and the total active power absorbed by the AC sides meets P_oll=2.1 pu>2 pu

At this moment, the active power absorbed by the converter 2 is 1.6 pu, the converter 2 is overloaded, the overload logic of the converter 1 is maintained, that is, the converter 1 is maintained at active-wattless power control, and the active overload limit reference value of the converter 1 is adjusted to meet P_{ref_oll1}=P_lim=1 pu: after adjustment, the active power absorbed by the converter 2 is decreased to 1.1 pu, if the output of fans decreases in this period, the active power P_s2 absorbed by the AC side of the converter 2 restores to a normal power range and is kept stable, then the converter 1 may exit from the overload logic, and the control mode of the converter 1 may be switched to voltage-frequency droop control from active-wattless power control; otherwise, a part of the fans are removed after an AC-side energy dissipation device is nm, and then, so as to decrease the active power P_oll absorbed by the AC side of the converter to be less than 2 pu.

The control mode switching logic unit consists of an active-wattless power reference value setting sub-unit and a system voltage phase control calculation sub-unit and is used for switching the converter 1 to an active-wattless power control strategy from the voltage-frequency droop control strategy. In this embodiment, the active-wattless power reference value setting sub-unit obtains an active-wattless reference value P_{ref_oll1}=P_set1=0.5 pu<P_lim and a wattless overload limit reference value Q_{ref_oll1}=Q_set1=0 pu by processing of a second reference input limit sub-unit, and the measured active power absorbed by the AC side of the converter 1 is finally stabilized to P_s1=0.5 pu. At this moment, the converter 2 is stilled maintained at voltage-frequency droop control; after the converter 1 is overloaded and the overload logic is executed, the total active power acquisition unit detects that the total active power absorbed by the AC sides meets P_oll=1.9 pu, if the reference input limit unit detects that the active power absorbed by the converter 2 is overloaded, assume the active power absorbed by the converter 2 is 1.4 pu, the overload logic of the converter 1 is maintained, the reference input limit sub-unit adjusts the active load limit reference value of the converter 1 to meet P_{ref_oll1}=P_set1+(P_oll−P_s1−P_lim)=0.5+(1.9−0.5−1)=0.9 pu<P_lim, and the active power absorbed by the converter 2 is decreased to 1 pu. After the two converters become stable, the measured active power absorbed by the AC side of the converter 1 meets P_s1=0.9 pu, and the measured active power absorbed by the AC side of the converter 2 meets P_s2=1 pu. The control system for the converter 1 enters into the overload restoration determining subunit and executes a second unit of the overload limit exit logic unit, and the control mode of the converter 1 is switched to voltage-frequency droop control from active-wattless power control.
