BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0051] Figure 1 The present invention is a flow chart of a method.

[0052] Figure 2 This is a system structure diagram of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0053] In order to more clearly illustrate the embodiments of the invention or the technical solutions in the prior art, the following briefly introduces the drawings required for use in the embodiments or the description of the prior art. Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of the invention. For ordinary technicians in this field, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without paying any creative work.

[0054] like Figure 1 As shown, a static VAR generator control method includes the following contents:

[0055] Step S1: Set and measure reactive power, set the required reactive power as Qref,

[0056] Step S2: Reactive power measurement, measuring the actual three-phase current and voltage through current sensors and voltage sensors;

[0057] Step S3: Reactive power calculation, calculating the actual reactive power Q based on the measured current and voltage, and calculating the error between the required reactive power and the actual reactive power;

[0058] Step S4: converting the reactive power error into a current reference value Iref, and decomposing the current reference value Iref into d-axis and q-axis components;

[0059] Step S5: Convert the circuit errors of the d-axis and q-axis into PWM modulation signals Ud and Uq;

[0060] Step S6: Convert the d-axis and q-axis control signals Ud and Uq into three-phase PWM modulation signals to control the power electronic switches of the static VAR generator, and adjust the output power of the static VAR generator by adjusting the amplitude and phase of the output current of the static VAR generator.

[0061] Assume that the static VAR generator is connected to a three-phase balanced AC grid. The grid voltage is expressed in vector form as V=Vm∠0︒, and the required reactive power is Qref.

[0062] The reactive power Q can be calculated as follows:

[0063] , where Vm is the peak voltage, Im is the peak current, and θ is the phase difference between current and voltage;

[0064] If the goal is to increase reactive power output (i.e., the SVG operates as a reactive power source), the positive value of sin(θ) needs to be increased. If the goal is to reduce reactive power output or absorb reactive power (i.e., the SVG operates as a reactive load), sin(θ) needs to be reduced or made negative.

[0065] The reactive power error is: eQ=Qref-Q.

[0066] Control strategy:

[0067] The outer loop first determines the required reactive power, Qref. Based on Qref and the actual measured reactive power, Q, the error, eQ = Qref - Q, is calculated. This error is then converted to a current reference, Iref, using a PI controller or other type of controller.

[0068] The current reference value of the outer loop control is calculated as:

[0069] ,

[0070] Where, Iref: This is the current reference value, which is the target current value obtained after processing by the PI controller and is used to guide the SVG on how to adjust its output current to match the desired reactive power demand.

[0071] Kp: Proportional gain coefficient. This is a constant that determines the degree to which the current reactive power error, eQ, affects the current reference. Proportional gain directly affects the control system's response speed.

[0072] eQ: Reactive power error, defined as the difference between the set reactive power reference value Qref and the actual measured reactive power Q, that is, eQ = Qref - Q. This error reflects the gap between the actual performance of the SVG in the current state and its expected target.

[0073] Ki: The integral gain factor, a constant that determines the impact of the accumulated reactive power error over all past time points on the current reference. The integral term eliminates steady-state errors, allowing the system to stabilize over long timescales.

[0074] This is an integral term of the reactive power error eQ from the initial time 0 to the current time t, which represents the cumulative effect of the reactive power error in the entire process from the beginning to now.

[0075] The current reference value Iref is decomposed into d-axis and q-axis components in the following way:

[0076] ,

[0077] ,

[0078] Where, is the phase angle, usually set to 0 degrees.

[0079] In the inner loop control, another PI controller is used to convert the current reference value 𝐼ref into a PWM modulation signal to control the power electronic switches in the SVG. This step ensures that the current output by the SVG can quickly and accurately track the reference value.

[0080] The circuit errors of the d-axis and q-axis are converted into PWM modulation signals Ud and Uq in the following way:

[0081] ,

[0082] ,

[0083] Where K p,d is the d-axis proportional gain, K i,d is the integral gain, K p,q is the q-axis proportional gain, K i,q is the q-axis integral gain, I d is the actual d-axis current, I q is the actual q-axis current.

[0084] Converting the d-axis and q-axis control signals Ud and Uq into three-phase PWM modulation signals to control the power electronic switches in the SVG is an important step in the SVG control system. This process usually involves the following steps:

[0085] 1. Inverter model

[0086] Assuming that the SVG uses a three-phase voltage source inverter, its output voltage can be controlled by PWM modulation. The output voltage of the inverter can be expressed as:

[0087] V=Vdad+Vqaq,

[0088] Where ad and aq are the unit vectors of the d-axis and q-axis, corresponding to the direct and quadrature axis directions, respectively.

[0089] 2. Coordinate Transformation

[0090] The d-axis and q-axis control signals Ud and Uq are converted into voltage signals ua, ub, and uc in a three-phase stationary coordinate system. This is usually achieved through an inverse Park transform (also known as a dq0 to abc transform).

[0091] Inverse Park transform formula:

[0092] ,

[0093] Where θ is the voltage phase angle.

[0094] Based on the generated PWM signal, the output power of the static VAR generator (SVG) is adjusted by adjusting the amplitude and phase of the SVG output current. The specific steps are as follows:

[0095] 1. Generate PWM signal

[0096] First, three-phase PWM signals are generated according to the method described above. These signals will be used to control the power electronic switches (such as IGBTs) in the SVG.

[0097] 2. Control power electronic switches

[0098] The generated PWM signal is applied to the power electronic switches in the SVG. The specific steps are as follows:

[0099] PWM signal input: The generated three-phase PWM signals pwma, pwmb, and pwmc are input into the drive circuit of the inverter.

[0100] Driver circuit: The driver circuit converts the PWM signal into appropriate drive signals to control the on and off of the IGBTs. These drive signals are usually high-voltage pulses that can quickly switch the IGBTs on and off.

[0101] IGBTs control: IGBTs switch rapidly according to the received drive signal, thereby changing the amplitude and phase of the SVG output current.

[0102] 3. Adjust the amplitude and phase of the output current

[0103] By controlling the switching state of IGBTs, the amplitude and phase of the SVG output current can be adjusted, thereby regulating the output power of the SVG.

[0104] Adjust the amplitude

[0105] PWM duty cycle: The duty cycle of the PWM signal determines the amplitude of the inverter output voltage. By adjusting the duty cycle of the PWM signal, the amplitude of the SVG output current can be changed.

[0106] Control strategy: In the inner loop control, the duty cycle of the PWM signal is adjusted through the PI controller so that the amplitude of the SVG output current tracks the reference value Iref.

[0107] Adjust Phase

[0108] Phase angle: By adjusting the phase angle of the PWM signal, the phase of the SVG output current relative to the grid voltage can be changed.

[0109] Control strategy: In the outer loop control, the PI controller is used to adjust the phase angle of the PWM signal so that the reactive power Q output by the SVG tracks the reference value Qref.

[0110] 4. Real-time monitoring and feedback

[0111] To ensure that the SVG's output current accurately tracks the reference value, real-time monitoring and feedback are required:

[0112] Current sensor: The current sensor installed at the output end of the SVG measures the output current ia, ib, ic in real time.

[0113] Voltage sensor: The voltage sensor installed on the grid side measures the grid voltage va, vb, vc in real time.

[0114] Data acquisition: Transmits the measured current and voltage data to the control unit.

[0115] Error calculation: The control unit calculates the error between the actual output current and the reference value and adjusts the PWM signal according to the error.

[0116] 5. Dynamic Adjustment

[0117] In actual operation, grid conditions may change, so it is necessary to dynamically adjust the control parameters:

[0118] Adaptive control: Dynamically adjust the parameters of the PI controller according to changes in grid conditions to maintain system stability and response speed.

[0119] Fault detection and protection: Real-time monitoring of system status, detection of faults such as overvoltage and overcurrent, and implementation of protective measures to ensure safe operation of the SVG.

[0120] PWM modulation

[0121] The three-phase voltage signals ua, ub, and uc are converted into PWM signals to control the power electronic switches (such as IGBTs) in the inverter. Common PWM modulation methods include sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) and space vector modulation (SVPWM).

[0122] Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation

[0123] In SPWM, each phase voltage ua, ub, uc is compared with a triangular carrier signal to generate the corresponding PWM signal. The specific steps are as follows:

[0124] Generate a triangular carrier signal: Select an appropriate triangular carrier frequency and amplitude.

[0125] Comparison: Compare each phase voltage ua, ub, uc with the triangular carrier signal.

[0126] Generate PWM signal: when the phase voltage is greater than the triangular carrier, the output is high level; when the phase voltage is less than the triangular carrier, the output is low level.

[0127] Space Vector Modulation

[0128] SVPWM is a more efficient modulation method that can improve inverter utilization and output waveform quality. The specific steps are as follows:

[0129] Calculate sector: Determine the sector where the current voltage vector is located.

[0130] Calculate the action time: Calculate the action time of each basic voltage vector based on Ud and Uq.

[0131] Generate PWM signal: Generate corresponding PWM signal according to the calculated action time to control the switching state in the inverter.

[0132] 4. Control inverter

[0133] Based on the generated PWM signal, the power electronic switches (such as IGBTs) in the inverter are controlled to adjust the amplitude and phase of the SVG output current so that it tracks the reference value.

[0134] like Figure 2 As shown, a static VAR generator control system includes the following contents:

[0135] The main circuit unit, consisting of a power electronic converter, is the core of the SVG, responsible for converting DC power to AC power with the same frequency as the grid, and vice versa. Depending on the application scenario, the main circuit can adopt different topologies, such as two-level, three-level, or multiplexed structures.

[0136] The control unit monitors grid conditions (such as voltage and current) and calculates the amount of reactive power required to be generated or absorbed. This information then generates corresponding control signals to adjust the operating conditions of the power electronic devices in the main circuit. Control strategies can be highly complex, including but not limited to instantaneous value control and predictive control.

[0137] Detection unit: This unit collects grid-related parameters, such as voltage and current, in real time and transmits this information to the control unit. Accurate and reliable detection is crucial for achieving precise control.

[0138] Protection unit: Ensures the safe operation of the SVG and the grid it is connected to. When an abnormal situation is detected (such as overvoltage, undervoltage, overcurrent, etc.), timely protection measures can be taken.

[0139] Human-machine interface: Provides an interactive interface between the operator and the SVG, making it easy to monitor the operating status of the SVG and make necessary settings adjustments.
