[0002] With the continuous rise of new energy penetration rate, the power system is gradually evolving from the traditional synchronous machine dominated architecture to the structure taking power electronic converters as the core. In the scenario of high proportion of new energy access, power electronic devices have become the key support for power grid operation. However, due to the lack of rotational inertia in essence, the converter is difficult to provide effective frequency and voltage support when the power grid is disturbed, resulting in a significant decrease in the stability of the power grid after being disturbed. Therefore, as a new generation of power electronic device, the network construction type converter, which has voltage source characteristics and self-synchronization capability, becomes an important technology in high proportion of new energy power grid.
[0003] At present, the inner loop control of the network construction type converter usually adopts a voltage and current double loop control structure, in which the outer loop voltage controller is responsible for tracking the reference voltage generated by the active ring and the reactive ring, and the inner loop current controller is used to track the current instruction. However, the existing voltage controller mostly adopts a symmetric structure, and the damping capacity is limited. In addition, the traditional voltage controller is easy to introduce a resonance peak in the low frequency band, which aggravates the risk of low frequency oscillation of the network construction type converter and reduces the stability margin of the system.
[0004] In view of the above problems, the application provides an asymmetric damping voltage controller for a network construction type converter and a control method thereof. SUMMARY
