Electric arc furnace has many advantages in smelting in the steel industry, such as the main source of materials is obsolete waste, which greatly reduces the initial cost, saves space and occupies a small area, and has high product manufacturing efficiency. New equipment is constantly updated and iterated, and the types of electric arc furnaces, generation efficiency, and product quality have all been significantly improved.

[0004] However, the commissioning of a large number of arc furnace equipment has led to flicker and harmonic pollution in the power grid, reduced the power quality of the public power grid, affected the safe operation of the power system, and caused a series of varying degrees of impact on the normal operation of electrical equipment in the power grid, causing disorder in the power system, affecting the normal production of enterprises, and causing unnecessary economic losses. Summary of the invention

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] A supercapacitor-based STATCOM flicker suppression method includes the following contents:

[0008] 1) Grid outer loop control: The virtual synchronous machine (VSG) control algorithm is adopted, including reactive power and voltage control, active power and frequency control, to decouple the frequency modulation characteristics and inertia damping characteristics, simulate the swing equation of the synchronous generator, fully simulate the power frequency regulation characteristics of the synchronous generator, and synchronize the internal three-phase stator electromotive force with the grid voltage;

[0011] 2) Fundamental current control and harmonic current control: The fundamental current is controlled by the reference voltage e abc * Harmonic current control reference voltage Vref Har Superimposed on the feedforward voltage V g On the top, the modulation wave S is generated Mode , the modulation wave S Mode Generate gate control signals for fully controlled devices and send them to cascaded power unit control modules;

[0012] The harmonic current control adopts a control strategy combining open loop and closed loop. The open loop control uses a second-order bandpass filter to extract the fundamental frequency signal, and the closed loop control uses a first-order differential link and a second-order low-pass filter cascade as a correction link.

[0013] Furthermore, the reactive power and voltage control is performed by calculating the reactive power given value Q ref Reactive power Q at the point of common connection e Passed through a second-order low-pass filter Output Q eLPF The deviation value is obtained through the PI regulator, and the voltage deviation value is compared with the VSG rated output voltage VSG e0 The final output voltage VSG is adjusted by superposition e , i.e. the internal electromotive force amplitude, is combined with the internal electromotive force phase VSG_θ to generate the internal electromotive force VSG_E;

[0014] Among them, the reactive power given value Q ref The command value is 0MVar, A n is the filter passband gain, ω n is the transfer function cutoff frequency, s is the transfer function complex frequency operator, and ξ is the filter damping coefficient.

[0015] Furthermore, the active power and frequency control is the internal stator electromotive force VSG e With the grid voltage V g The difference is applied to the virtual stator impedance On, where R V is the virtual stator resistance, L V is the virtual stator inductance; generates the current command VSG_I, multiplies it with the internal electromotive force VSG_E to get the output electromagnetic power VSG_P, and divides it by the rated capacity base value S BaseGenerate per-unit value VSG_P_PU. Use second-order low-pass filter to extract the stable component in VSG_P_PU. After removing the stable component from the original signal VSG_P_PU, the high-frequency component ΔP_PU of the arc furnace active power to be suppressed by the grid-type STATCOM is obtained;

[0017] Furthermore, the current command signal of the open-loop control link comes from the EAF load current i load , a second-order bandpass filter is used to extract the fundamental frequency signal, and the load current i load Subtract the fundamental frequency signal to obtain the load current harmonic component i load_Har ;

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0022] 1) The traditional virtual synchronous machine VSG control algorithm is improved, the frequency modulation characteristics and inertia damping characteristics are decoupled, the power frequency regulation characteristics of the synchronous generator can be fully simulated, and the decoupling control of the primary frequency modulation and damping oscillation functions is realized. The method is simple and has strong feasibility, which effectively improves the controllability and operation performance of the grid-type STATCOM. Supercapacitors are used as energy storage elements. Through the rapid charge and discharge control of supercapacitors, the high-frequency fluctuation of active power caused by the operation of the arc furnace is suppressed, which is an effective means of flicker suppression;

[0023] 2) The load current of the arc furnace has random changes and nonlinear characteristics, especially in the melting period, which produces randomly changing harmonic currents. To address this problem, the grid-type STATCOM load harmonic current adopts a control strategy that combines open-loop and closed-loop control. The open-loop control ensures the response speed, and the closed-loop control improves the control accuracy. The combination of the two achieves the optimal control effect and significantly improves the harmonic compensation rate. The first-order differential link and the second-order low-pass filter cascade are used as the correction link to improve the open-loop control gain and suppress the resonance between the passive filter and the power grid. It has good compensation characteristics. The second-order low-pass filter link is added to the reactive power of the common connection point (PCC point), thereby dividing the dynamic response into two processes: "fast" and "slow". The purpose is to avoid the fundamental reactive power compensation speed being too fast, which conflicts with the harmonic fast compensation link and causes harmonic amplification problems.
