Abstract

The invention provides a modular multilevel converter test method, device and system. Power modules in a first modular multilevel converter and a second modular multilevel converter are firstly charged, the output voltage of the second modular multilevel converter is then adjusted, whether the second modular multilevel converter works normally is finally determined, and test on the second modularmultilevel converter is realized. The unlocking charging process adopts a soft start control strategy combining DC chopper and a ramp function, the duty cycle of the first modular multilevel converterand the second modular multilevel converter is gradually reduced through modulation waves in a ramp function form, the current of the power module rises slowly, the impact current during the chargingprocess can be effectively reduced, the process is simple and convenient, realization is easy, and the test cost is greatly reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of power electronics, in particular to a testing method, device and system for a modular multilevel converter. Background technique [0002] At present, Voltage Source Converter based High Voltage Direct Current (VSC-HVDC) is widely used in renewable energy grid connection, power supply to passive network, urban grid power supply and asynchronous AC grid interconnection and other occasions, among which , Voltage Source Converter (Voltage Source Converter, VSC) is the core component of VSC-HVDC. At present, the VSC-HVDC that has been put into operation mostly uses two-level converters or three-level converters, but both two-level converters and three-level converters have the following deficiencies: 1) Multiple IGBTs connected in series will Increase the difficulty of static and dynamic voltage equalization of devices; 2) High switching frequency will lead to relatively high switching loss of VSC; 3) Two-lev...
