Abstract

The invention discloses a sub-module circuit for a three-phase modular multilevel converter. The sub-module circuit is composed of two energy storage capacitors, twelve power switch tubes with reversediodes and six power diodes. When the sub-module circuit replaces six half-bridge type sub-modules close to the positive electrode of the direct current side, a first capacitor of the sub-module circuit is connected with one ends of collectors of a first switch tube, a second switch tube and a third switch tube to be connected with the positive electrode of the direct current side, and emitters of a fourth switch tube, a fifth switch tube and a sixth switch tube are connected with the remaining sub-modules of the three-phase modular multilevel converter. And when the sub-module circuit replaces six half-bridge sub-modules close to the cathode of the direct current side, the second capacitor is connected with one end of emitters of the tenth, eleventh and twelfth switching tubes to be connected with the cathode of the direct current side, and emitters of the fourth, fifth and sixth switching tubes are respectively connected with the remaining sub-modules of the three-phase modular multilevel converter. Under the condition that original functions are kept unchanged, the number of capacitors can be reduced by four, and the size and cost of the converter are reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of modular multilevel converters, in particular to a sub-module circuit for three-phase modular multilevel converters. Background technique [0002] In order to meet the requirements of large-capacity power transmission and enhance the controllability of the power grid, flexible DC transmission technology is showing a momentum of rapid development. As the core technology of the flexible DC transmission project, the modular multilevel converter (MMC) has been widely used. Existing MMC converters, especially in the high-voltage field, are mostly hybrid MMC converters including various sub-modules. In the whole MMC converter, half-bridge sub-modules account for a larger part. Although compared with traditional rectifiers and inverters, modular multilevel converters have the advantages of modularization, low switching frequency, small switching losses, and low voltage stress on switching devices, but the appli...
