mathematical model of a
cascade multi-
level converter, and calculating the
capacitor voltage fluctuation components of sub-modules under different working conditions; the method comprises the following steps: detecting a frequency change rate in a power
system frequency event, determining a cascaded multilevel converter sub-module
capacitor voltage safety regulation domain according to sub-module
capacitor voltage fluctuation components under different working conditions, and determining a sub-module
capacitor voltage maximum regulation quantity; constructing a droop control link, and multiplying the
frequency deviation of the power
system by a droop coefficient to serve as a sub-module
capacitor voltage change reference value; predicting the load variation of the power
system by combining the
inertia identification result of the power system, and solving the optimal droop coefficient by taking the condition that the
capacitance voltage variation reference value of the sub-module is equal to the maximum
capacitance voltage regulating variable of the sub-module as a constraint condition; through droop control,
voltage control, current control and modulation links, the
capacitor voltage of the cascaded multilevel converter sub-module is adjusted, and
inertia support is provided for a power system. The device comprises a frequency change rate calculation module, a load prediction module, a droop control module, a
voltage control module, a current control module and a modulation module. According to the
cascade multi-
level converter inertia support control method and device disclosed by the invention, capacitor voltage out-of-limit caused by capacitor voltage
double frequency fluctuation during inertia support can be avoided, and the inertia support capability of the cascade multi-level converter is improved through optimal droop coefficient selection.
