Problems solved by technology

However, in the case of using a plurality of power converters with different power capacities, under the condition of low power, it is more difficult to use a plurality of power converters with a small power capacity than to use a single power converter with a large power capacity. Hi

Example Embodiment

[0030] Embodiment 1.

[0031] figure 1 It is a figure which shows an example of the structure of the power conversion device of Embodiment 1 of this invention.

[0032] As shown in the figure, the power conversion device includes a power sharing regulator 3, and the power converter units 2 are connected in parallel at the output position. The power sharing regulator 3 adjusts each power converter unit (for example, Adjust the power value shared by each power converter unit). The power sharing regulator 3 has a function of acquiring power information corresponding to the rated efficiency point, the highest efficiency point, and the allowable efficiency point of the power converter unit 2 used in the power conversion device. The requested power uses the value input from the external device to the power sharing regulator 3, the control calculation result corresponding to the AC load or the flow power (refer to the dotted line connecting the load and the power sharing regulator 3 in t...

[0104] Implementation mode 2.

[0105] Figure 8 It is a figure which shows the structural example of the operation mode selection process of Embodiment 2 of this invention. In the power conversion device of the second embodiment, compared to the first embodiment, a high-efficiency charge and discharge function that does not require the second power threshold and the third power threshold can be realized. Figure 8 Shows a flowchart for realizing this function. That is, by using a predetermined ratio to the first power threshold to determine the second power threshold and the third power threshold of the plurality of power converter units 2 operated by the power sharing regulator 3, it is possible to achieve a comparison with the embodiment 1 Simplified high-efficiency charge and discharge function. For example, in Figure 8 Medium, set to P 2 =0.6P 1 , P 3 =0.4P 1 .

[0107] Implementation mode 3.

[0108] Picture 9 It is a figure which shows the structural example of the operation mode selection flow in Embodiment 3 of this invention. In the power conversion device of the third embodiment, in addition to the configuration of the first embodiment, it is assumed that the power conversion efficiency corresponding to the first power threshold to the third power threshold and the power conversion efficiency corresponding to the first power threshold and the second power threshold are used. The efficiency characteristic η obtained by linear approximation of the power conversion efficiency corresponding to the power threshold 1 And the efficiency characteristic η obtained by linearly approximating the power conversion efficiency corresponding to the second power threshold and the third power threshold 2 To achieve high-efficiency charging and discharging functions. In addition, for the linear approximation of the efficiency characteristic from the ...

Abstract

This power conversion apparatus has: DC power sources; power converter units; and a power contribution adjuster that individually adjusts power of the power converter units, wherein when the power converter units having the DC power sources connected thereto on the input sides are connected in parallel on the output side, power contribution of each of the power converter units is adjusted by the power contribution adjuster such that the efficiency of the apparatus overall improves, by utilizing three thresholds regarding rated power, maximum efficiency power, and permissible efficiency power from among efficiency characteristics of each of the power converter units.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to improving the efficiency of electrical conversion in a power conversion device in which power converter units are multiplexed in parallel at an input side or an output side. Background technique [0002] In recent years, the market for power storage devices such as solar power generation devices, electric vehicles, and emergency power supplies has expanded, and devices that combine these devices are used in zero-energy houses and zero-energy houses where the power purchased from the power system is zero. The technological development of the building has attracted attention. However, when a plurality of different power storage devices are multiplexed and used in parallel, there may be a problem in restricting the power storage devices according to the charging and discharging power compared to charging and discharging all the power storage devices with the same ratio of power sharing. Conditions for higher efficiency wh...
