Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of power electronics technology, and in particular to a STATCOM topology with supercapacitor and its control method. Background Technology

[0002] STATCOMs with supercapacitors possess inertia support capabilities, enabling rapid grid voltage recovery during short-circuit faults. They offer advantages such as high power density, fast charging and discharging speeds, and strong overload capacity, making them a crucial component in supporting the construction of new power systems and ensuring their operational reliability. Supercapacitors, with their low-voltage, high-current characteristics, are suitable for short-term, high-power output applications. However, due to considerations of product design costs and standardization, supercapacitor modules typically have lower voltage ratings, limiting their applicability and making them less compatible with high-voltage power modules. In grid-connected STATCOMs with energy storage components, the frequency regulation characteristics and inertia damping characteristics interact in the active frequency control loop of traditional virtual synchronous generators (VSGs), requiring the design of a reasonable, simple, effective, and easily implementable control strategy. During transient faults, the arm current reference command is large, necessitating the design of reasonable limiting logic to ensure device safety. To address these issues, this invention proposes a grid-connected STATCOM topology with supercapacitors and its control method. Summary of the Invention

The DC-DC circuit in the supercapacitor module adopts a cascaded control method, which enhances the applicability of the supercapacitor module and can be applied to the design of power unit modules with higher voltage levels, saving design costs. The active power frequency control method is improved to avoid mutual interference between frequency modulation characteristics and inertia damping characteristics. The steady-state control accuracy of active power is improved to avoid the influence of high-frequency noise caused by analog sampling and reduce steady-state error. The method is simple, effective, and highly implementable. By using virtual impedance limiting logic and dynamically updating the gain coefficient and time constant of the first-order inertial element, the transient overcurrent problem of the device is limited, thus improving the safety of the product.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention employs the following technical solution:

[0005] A supercapacitor-equipped STATCOM topology is a star-chain STATCOM system. The power units in the star-chain STATCOM system include supercapacitor modules and H-bridge modules, which are connected in parallel.

[0006] The supercapacitor module consists of three cascaded sub-modules. Each sub-module includes a supercapacitor, a filter inductor, and a DC-DC circuit. The DC-DC circuit is composed of two sets of IGBT anti-parallel diodes in a half-bridge structure. One set of IGBT anti-parallel diodes is then connected in parallel with a series circuit of the filter inductor and the supercapacitor, and then connected in series with another set of IGBT anti-parallel diodes.

[0007] A control method for a STATCOM topology with overcapacity includes:

[0008] (1) Calculation of unit phasor of voltage feedforward: A second-order generalized integrator is used for single-phase grid voltage to generate two-phase quadrature signals, thereby calculating the unit phasor of the three-phase grid feedforward voltage and filtering out high-order harmonics.

[0009] (2) Calculation of reactive voltage control and active frequency control of virtual synchronous machine VSG: The amplitude of virtual internal electromotive force is obtained through reactive voltage droop control loop. Limits are added to the integral and output of PI regulator respectively. At the same time, the integral term is cleared to zero during short circuit fault. The phase angle of virtual internal electromotive force is obtained through active frequency control loop.

[0010] (3) Calculation of bridge arm current reference command: Subtract the phasor of the grid voltage and the virtual internal electromotive force, and apply it to the first-order inertial element to obtain the bridge arm current reference command.

[0011] (4) Arm current reference command limiting logic: The virtual impedance limiting logic obtains the voltage deviation by the difference between the three-phase grid voltage and the virtual internal electromotive force, divides it by the maximum limit value of the arm current, and obtains the equivalent impedance of the STATCOM three-phase arm. By selecting the maximum value and dividing it by the rated equivalent impedance, the dynamic limiting coefficient of the equivalent impedance is obtained, thereby changing the time constant and gain coefficient of the first-order inertial element to ensure that the maximum arm current reference command is always less than the maximum withstand current.

[0012] (5) H-bridge module modulation wave command calculation: The difference between the reference command of each phase arm current and the feedback of the arm current is passed through a three-phase independent quasi-proportional resonant regulator to obtain the control voltage of the fundamental current of each phase. After being superimposed with the grid voltage feedforward, the final modulation signal is generated.

[0013] (6) Calculation of modulation wave command for supercapacitor module: The output of AC side voltage control loop of DC-DC circuit in supercapacitor module and active current command of STATCOM are superimposed and subtracted from AC side current of DC-DC circuit in supercapacitor module. The current deviation is superimposed with the compensation amount of balance control output of supercapacitor sub-module through PI regulator to generate the final modulation signal of each sub-module of supercapacitor.

Subtracting them gives the voltage difference; dividing it by the slope gives the voltage deviation between the two. The corresponding reactive power reference value is obtained. And thus related to reactive power feedback value Subtract, and pass through a PI regulator The deviation of the virtual internal electromotive force can be obtained. Among them, the limiting of the integral element in the PI controller is set independently, and the final output limiting of the PI controller is also set independently; the deviation of the virtual internal electromotive force.

[0017] Furthermore, the calculation of the bridge arm current reference command specifically includes: Phase A grid voltage. With virtual internal electromotive force phasor Subtracting the two yields the voltage deviation, which then acts on the first-order inertial element. The reference command for the A-phase bridge arm current is obtained. Then, through a second-order low-pass filter Then, the DC component of the A-phase bridge arm current reference command is obtained. ; Set the A-phase bridge arm current reference command Subtract DC component This yields the A-phase bridge arm current reference command that does not include a DC component.
