Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of aviation electrics, and particularly relates to a stability design method for a high-voltage DC power generation system based on a small-signal model. Background Art

[0002] The aircraft energy system is currently developing towards a more electric / all-electric direction. When the original secondary energy sources such as gas and liquid are gradually developed into electrical energy, the types of aircraft electrical loads will become more diverse, resulting in an impact on the stable and reliable operation of the aircraft power supply system. With the gradual increase in the power of airborne equipment, aviation electrical energy has evolved from low-voltage DC, constant-frequency AC / variable-frequency AC power supplies to high-voltage DC. The three-stage synchronous generator has been widely used as the main high-voltage DC power source in the power supply systems of model aircraft due to its reliable excitation adjustment ability and simple motor topology. When the aircraft airborne equipment is converted from a mechanical pump to an electric pump and mechanical actuation to electric actuation, its typical load characteristics are power electronic devices. Power electronic devices, due to their constant power output, exhibit non-energy dissipative devices with respect to the external impedance. Their different operating conditions will introduce problems such as renewable energy feedback and high-frequency pulse current modulation that affect the power supply stability of the airborne high-voltage DC power source. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The object of the present invention: to propose a stability design method for a high-voltage DC power generation system based on a small-signal model, establish an equivalent output impedance model of a three-stage synchronous generator, establish a stability determination criterion based on Nyquist impedance analysis, and formulate a stability design method applicable to constrained loads according to the stability criterion.

[0004] The technical solution of the present invention: To achieve the above object of the invention, the present invention proposes a stability design method for a high-voltage DC power generation system based on a small-signal model, including the following steps:

[0005] Step 1: Construct a simplified model of a three-stage synchronous generator to obtain an equivalent output impedance model of the generator;

[0006] Step 2: Obtain the stability characteristics of the equivalent output impedance of the synchronous generator;

[0007] Step 3: According to the Nyquist stability criterion, propose a stability criterion for the high-voltage DC power generation system with a constant power load;

[0008] Step 4: According to the stability criterion, by constraining the amplitude of the load impedance to be greater than the amplitude of the equivalent output impedance of the generator by a certain stability margin, as the input basis for load design, realize the stable operation of the high-voltage DC power generation system.

[0009] Furthermore, in the above Step 1, constructing the output impedance model of the generator includes:

[0010] Convert the electrical parameters of the rotor part of the main generator and the excitation motor to the stator side, and obtain the equivalent circuit diagrams of the main generator and the excitation motor in the rotating coordinate system;

[0011] Utilize the equivalent circuit diagrams of the main generator and the excitation motor to obtain the equivalent models of the main generator and the excitation motor;

[0012] Equivalent the permanent magnet machine to a constant voltage source;

[0013] Equivalent the generator voltage regulation circuit to a chopper circuit, and combine it with the equivalent constant voltage source of the permanent magnet machine to obtain the equivalent circuit at the front end of the exciter;

[0014] According to the equivalent circuit models of the permanent magnet machine, the exciter, the main generator, and the voltage regulation module, obtain the small-signal output impedance model of the three-stage synchronous generator.

[0015] Furthermore, in the second step, define the stability characteristic of the equivalent output impedance of the synchronous generator as that the phase angle of the output impedance is within [-90, 90] in the frequency range of [1, 10000], that is, its impedance characteristic shows a constant positive resistance characteristic.

[0016] Furthermore, in the third step, the stability criterion of the high-voltage DC power generation system with a constant power load obtained according to the Nyquist stability criterion: in the frequency range of [1, 10000], the equivalent output impedance of the three-stage synchronous motor shows a constant positive impedance, and the amplitude of the output impedance is less than the amplitude of the equivalent input impedance of the constant power load, then the high-voltage DC power generation system is stable.

[0017] Furthermore, in the fourth step, by restricting the magnitude of the load impedance, a general stability design method applicable to different load conditions is given, including:

[0018] Establish the equivalent output impedance model of the synchronous generator;

[0019] Calculate the amplitude of the equivalent output impedance of the synchronous generator at different frequencies;

[0020] Restrict the equivalent input impedance of the load and the equivalent output impedance of the generator to satisfy the following formula

[0021] |Z i |-Z o >GM(dB)

[0022] where GM is the amplitude margin of the impedance, generally selected as 6dB.

[0023] Furthermore, in the general stability design method: the amplitude of the load equivalent impedance should be greater than the power supply equivalent impedance and the amplitudes of both should exceed 6dB.

[0040] To avoid problems such as grid impact and instability caused by constant power load electrical equipment, the present invention proposes a stability design method for a high-voltage DC power generation system based on a small-signal model, which is used to analyze the load-carrying stability of a typical aircraft high-voltage DC power generation system and reasonably restrict the load characteristics of airborne electrical equipment to ensure the reliable operation of the airborne high-voltage DC power generation system.

[0041] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, a stability design method for a high-voltage DC power generation system based on a small-signal model is carried out according to the following steps:

[0042] Step 1: Construct a simplified model of a three-stage synchronous generator to obtain an equivalent output impedance model of the generator;

[0043] Specifically, according to Figure 2 the equivalent circuit diagram of the exciter and the main motor stator side of the three-stage synchronous generator shown in the rotating coordinate system, the small-signal model of the main generator stator and rotor circuits in the synchronous rotating coordinate system is obtained:

[0044]

[0045]

[0046] In the specific implementation process, according to Figure 2 the equivalent circuit diagram shown, the small-signal model of the exciter is analogously obtained as:

[0047]

[0048] where: the superscript ME represents the exciter parameters

[0049] In the specific implementation process, according to Figure 3 the permanent magnet machine and generator voltage regulation chopper circuit diagram shown, the small-signal models of the permanent magnet machine and the chopper circuit are obtained:

[0050]

[0051] where kpv and kiv are the proportional coefficient and differential coefficient of the PI link respectively

[0052] Based on the small-signal models of the permanent magnet machine, exciter, main generator and voltage regulation module, the small-signal impedance model of the generator can be solved as:

[0053]

[0054] where ZMG is the impedance of the three-stage synchronous generator, vdc and idc are the output DC voltage and DC current of the three-stage synchronous generator respectively, and Cf is the DC filter capacitor of the generator;

[0055] Step 2: Obtain the stability characteristics of the equivalent output impedance of the synchronous generator;

[0056] Specifically, the stability characteristic of the equivalent output impedance is that the phase angle of the output impedance within the time-frequency range is located in [-90, 90], that is, its impedance characteristic shows a constant positive resistance characteristic; if the impedance characteristic is a positive resistance characteristic, it indicates that the equivalent output impedance is stable by itself, proving that the synchronous generator can operate stably by itself.

[0057] Step 3: According to the Nyquist stability criterion, propose the stability criterion for the HVDC power generation system with a constant power load;

[0058] Specifically, the generalized Nyquist criterion defines that the system is stable when the Nyquist locus of the minimum loop gain composed of the closed-loop system does not enclose (-1, j0)

[0059] In the specific implementation process, according to the generalized Nyquist criterion, specifically for a high-voltage DC power generation system composed of a power supply and a load, its stability definition can be clearly stated as follows: If the equivalent output impedance of a three-level synchronous motor exhibits a constant positive impedance and the magnitude of the output impedance is less than the magnitude of the equivalent input impedance of a constant-power load, then the high-voltage DC power generation system is stable.

[0060] In the specific implementation process, according to the small-signal model described in Step 1, the small-signal impedance models of a 65kW DC generator and a DC / DC converter are obtained respectively and plotted as Bode plots, as Figure 4 shown; according to Figure 4 shown, it can be clearly seen that the stability characteristics of both the 65kW DC generator and the DC / DC satisfy the conditions described in Step 2 and Step 3. Therefore, the closed-loop system composed of the 65kW generator and the DC / DC converter is stable;

[0061] In the specific implementation process, a simulation analysis of the stability of a high-voltage DC power generation system composed of a 65kW DC generator and a DC / DC converter is carried out, as Figure 5 shown. By detecting the output voltage and current of the 65kW DC generator and the output voltage and current of the DC / DC converter, a consistency verification of the model is performed. The results prove that the closed-loop system is consistent with the model analysis conclusion, and the high-voltage DC power generation system can operate stably.

[0062] Step 4: According to the stability criterion, by restricting the magnitude of the load impedance, a general stability design method applicable to different load conditions is given.

[0063] Specifically, taking a 65kW DC generator as an example, an equivalent output impedance model of the synchronous generator is established

[0064] In the specific implementation process, as Figure 4 shown, it is proved that the stability characteristic of the output impedance of the 65kW generator is stable. The magnitude of the equivalent output impedance of the synchronous generator at different frequencies is obtained using the Bode plot

[0065] Restrict the equivalent input impedance of the load and the equivalent output impedance of the generator to satisfy the following formula

[0066] |Z i |-Z o >GM(dB)

[0067] where GM is the magnitude margin of the impedance. Generally, considering the safety threshold, the magnitude margin is selected as 6dB.

[0068] As Figure 6 shown, design the magnitude of the equivalent load impedance to fall within the Figure 6 area indicated by the frame line, and the system can operate stably.

[0069] In the specific implementation process, simulation analysis was carried out on a 65kW DC generator with 20kW constant power load, 30kW constant power load, and 40kW constant power load to verify the stability design method. As Figure 6 shown, it is proved that the high-voltage DC power supply system remains stable under different levels of constant power load conditions, and it is proved that when the load impedance is greater than the generator equivalent impedance by more than 6dB safety threshold, it can operate stably. The stability design method of the high-voltage DC power generation system based on the small-signal model proposed by the present invention is reasonable, correct, and feasible.

Those parts not described in detail are regarded as conventional technical means or common general knowledge in the art. It can be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that: based on the design concept of this application, it should be possible to make adaptive modifications to the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing implementation manners, or make equivalent replacements for some or all of the technical features.
