[0058] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0059] For easier understanding, please refer to Figure 1 An embodiment of a UPFC control method considering line N-1 faults provided in this application includes:

[0060] Step 101: Collect real-time electrical quantities on the UPFC installation line, and simultaneously acquire the status signals of the circuit breaker and disconnector. The real-time electrical quantities include line active power, line reactive power, current amplitude, and bus voltage.

[0061] This embodiment uses a hybrid measurement system for multi-source data acquisition. The hybrid measurement system includes a data acquisition device, a monitoring and control system (SCADA), and a phasor measurement unit (PMU). The system can synchronously acquire real-time electrical quantities of the UPFC installed line, and can also receive circuit breaker and disconnector status signals (Boolean values, 1 indicates closed, 0 indicates open) sent by the power grid energy management system (EMS).

[0062] Real-time electrical quantities include line active power. (Unit: MW), Line reactive power (Unit: Mvar), Current Amplitude (Unit: kA) and bus voltage (Unit: kV). To ensure data timescale consistency, this embodiment uses the IEEE 1588 Precision Clock Protocol (PTP) to synchronize the clocks of all measurement units in the system, with a synchronization accuracy better than 1 millisecond.

[0063] Step 102: Analyze and identify the operating status of the UPFC system based on real-time electrical quantities to obtain the operating status category, which includes normal status, overload status and short-circuit fault status.

[0064] Further, step 102 includes:

[0065] Calculate the line power surge of UPFC based on real-time electrical quantities;

[0066] If the power surge of the line is greater than the power surge threshold, and the circuit breaker of the associated line is determined to be in the open state based on the status signal, then the operating status category is determined to be N-1 interruption overload.

[0067] Calculate the load rate of the critical line in UPFC based on real-time electrical quantities;

[0068] If the load rate of each critical UPFC line is less than the lower limit of the load rate and no N-1 interruption overload occurs, the operating status is determined to be normal.

[0069] If at least one UPFC critical path has a load rate greater than the lower load rate limit, and the total load rate of all UPFC critical paths is less than the upper load rate limit, then the operating state category is determined to be a normal overload state.

[0070] If the current amplitude is greater than the short-circuit current threshold, or if the load rate of at least one critical UPFC line is greater than the upper limit of the load rate, the operating status is determined to be a short-circuit fault state.

[0071] In this embodiment, the system where the UPFC is located is first analyzed based on real-time electrical quantities to determine whether an N-1 fault has occurred. After determining that the N-1 fault is interrupted, a detailed status analysis is then performed based on real-time electrical quantities to determine whether the fault is caused by an overload or a short circuit.

[0072] A comprehensive logical judgment based on the line power surge and circuit breaker status can determine whether an N-1 interruption fault has occurred in the system; the line power surge can be calculated as follows:

[0073]

[0074] in, The sampling interval is typically 20-100 milliseconds. An N-1 interruption fault, i.e., an N-1 interruption overload, is determined to have occurred when both of the following conditions are met simultaneously: First, ,in, The first step is to determine the power surge threshold, typically 15%-30% of the line's rated power. Secondly, based on the acquired switch status signals, it is determined that the circuit breaker of the associated line closely related to the UPFC installation line is in the open state, i.e., the switch status signal. The trip signal changes from 1 to 0. At this point, it is determined that an N-1 fault has occurred in the system, and the operating status is determined to be N-1 overload.

[0075] Then, the load rate of the UPFC critical line can be calculated based on the data in the real-time electrical quantities:

[0076]

[0077] in, This indicates the maximum current-carrying capacity of the line, expressed in kA.

[0078] For normal state If the load rate of each UPFC critical path All ,in, This is the lower limit of the load rate, also known as the light load threshold, which is usually set to 0.7; and the detection determines that no N-1 interruption fault has occurred.

[0079] For overload conditions If there is at least one UPFC critical path with a load factor Greater than the lower limit of load rate ,Right now At this point, an overload can be identified. It should be noted that if at least one UPFC critical line has a load factor... Greater than or equal to the lower limit of load rate However, if no N-1 interruption overload occurs, the current operating state is a normal overload state, not an N-1 interruption overload state caused by an N-1 interruption fault, and it is still treated as an overload state; but if an N-1 interruption overload occurs, and the total load rate of all UPFC critical lines is... Less than the upper limit of load rate ,Right now At the same time, there is a load factor of at least one UPFC critical line. Greater than the lower limit of load rate ,Right now This is also known as the overload alarm threshold, typically set to 0.9, at which point it is determined to be an N-1 interruption overload. In other words, the overload conditions in this embodiment include two types: N-1 interruption fault overload and general overload.

[0080] For short circuit fault conditions If the collected current amplitude Exceeding the short-circuit current threshold ,Right now pu, meaning the short-circuit current characteristic value exceeds the threshold. ; or at least one line has a load factor exceeding the load factor limit, i.e. If the system exhibits a short-circuit fault state, then the system is determined to be in a short-circuit fault state.

[0081] Step 103: If the operating state category is overload state, calculate the optimal regulation voltage of UPFC based on the preset power regulation model using the sensitivity analysis method.

[0082] Further, step 103 includes:

[0083] If the operating status category is overload, calculate the power difference of the overloaded lines;

[0084] A preset power regulation model is constructed with the goal of minimizing the power difference.

[0085] The optimal regulation voltage of the UPFC is calculated based on a preset power regulation model using sensitivity analysis.

[0086] Overload conditions The following lines It can calculate the actual active power of the line. With safe power limits The power difference between them:

[0087]

[0088] It refers to the safe power limit considering the thermal stability limit of the line and the transient stability constraint of the system, in MW, which is usually provided by offline calculation or online safety analysis module.

[0089] Under overload conditions, the primary objective is to eliminate overload on critical lines; therefore, this embodiment focuses on adjusting the power difference. With minimization as the objective, a pre-defined power regulation model is constructed:

[0090]

[0091] The above optimization problem is solved using sensitivity analysis:

[0092]

[0093] in,

[0094]

[0095] The power-voltage sensitivity coefficient is obtained through real-time linearized power flow equations. This is the step size factor, used to ensure convergence; This is the optimal adjustment value for UPFC, which is the optimal adjustment voltage for UPFC.

[0096] Step 104: If the operating status is a short-circuit fault, adjust the equivalent impedance current limiting of the UPFC series transformer to trigger the UPFC parallel converter to perform reactive power regulation and output the voltage reference value.

[0097] If it is in a short circuit fault state The UPFC immediately switches to fault ride-through mode, using fast power electronic switches such as thyristors to activate a preset bypass current-limiting reactor. The unit is pu, which stands for equivalent impedance. Working in conjunction with the UPFC series transformer, it limits the short-circuit current below the equipment's withstand level. Simultaneously, the parallel converter exits active power control and switches to reactive power support mode, and its output voltage reference value... Determined by the following formula:

[0098]

[0099] in, The initial reference voltage, The droop coefficient is... This is the rated voltage of the busbar. The strategy involves raising the voltage during voltage dips. This forces the parallel converters to generate capacitive reactive power to support the bus voltage near the fault point. .

[0100] It should be noted that if it is a non-fault state, that is, a normal state In this case, UPFC can be controlled normally using the traditional dual-closed-loop vector control strategy. The outer-loop power controller generates the inner-loop current reference value. Taking active power control as an example, its PI control is as follows:

[0101]

[0102] in, This is the reference value for the d-axis current of the converter, in kA. For planned trend value, and The proportional and integral coefficients of the controller are tuned according to the system short-circuit capacity and control response requirements. The inner-loop current controller then tracks the circuit rapidly. Finally, the output voltage reference value of the UPFC series-side converter is generated through PWM modulation. .

[0103] Step 105: Based on the control coefficients of the inner loop controller and the linear weighting method, UPFC adaptive regulation is achieved according to the optimal adjustment voltage or voltage reference value.

[0104] Further, step 105 includes:

[0105] The control coefficients are obtained by dynamically adjusting the proportional and integral coefficients of the inner-loop controller using the pole placement method.

[0106] Based on the linear weighting method, a smooth transition command is generated according to the optimal regulation voltage or voltage reference value to obtain the control voltage reference value;

[0107] UPFC adaptive regulation is achieved based on control coefficients and control voltage reference values.

[0108] It should be noted that, in order to avoid power oscillations caused by switching between different control modes, this embodiment uses a linear weighting method to smoothly transition the control command. Within N control cycles of mode switching, typically N=5~10, the final control voltage reference value, i.e., the output control command, is determined. for:

[0109]

[0110] in, To switch the control command from the previous moment, The control command calculated for the new mode after switching, the optimal regulation voltage or voltage reference value calculated; transition coefficient. Decays linearly from 1 to 0: .

[0111] To adapt to different power grid operating modes, such as changes between strong and weak power grids, the parameter proportional coefficient of the UPFC inner loop current controller... Integral coefficient Online adjustments are required. This embodiment employs a pole placement method, based on the real-time estimated system equivalent impedance. The controller parameters are recalculated so that the closed-loop poles controlled by the inner-loop controller are always located in the desired region of the left half of the complex plane, thus ensuring the speed and stability of the control.

[0112] It should be noted that, based on the already defined operational status categories... During the actual execution phase, the current primary control objective of UPFC can be dynamically configured, that is, the controller can be given priority to trigger the control mechanism:

[0113] like The control objective is precise power flow tracking, i.e., minimizing... ;

[0114] like The control objective is to eliminate line overload, i.e., minimize it. ;

[0115] like The control objective is to suppress short-circuit current. ,in, To the maximum withstand value of the equipment and to support the bus voltage. .

[0116] Furthermore, step 105, followed by:

[0117] The control voltage reference value is input into the pulse width modulation unit of the UPFC for safe operation verification, and the verification result is obtained.

[0118] The control voltage reference value can be used as the output control command. A safety check is performed before the pulse width modulation (PWM) generator in the UPFC is input. The check process includes:

[0119] Does the voltage amplitude limit meet? ,in It is determined by the DC voltage of the UPFC converter and the turns ratio of the AC-side transformer.

[0120] Does the current limit meet? Through feedforward calculations, ensure the corresponding converter output current is met. satisfy ;in, This indicates the maximum safe operating current of the UPFC converter.

[0121] If any of the above conditions are not met, then for Amplitude limiting is applied.

[0122] Furthermore, step 105, followed by:

[0123] The UPFC controller sends the current operating mode of the system and the reference value of the control voltage to the relay protection information system.

[0124] The braking coefficient of the line longitudinal differential protection is dynamically adjusted by the relay protection information system based on the received information and the preset correlation matrix.

[0125] At the control implementation level, existing solutions mostly rely on threshold judgments of preset parameters, which are difficult to adapt to the time-varying operation mode of urban power grids and lack a coordination mechanism with local line protection, posing a risk of protection malfunction. Therefore, this embodiment provides a UPFC control method that can adaptively adjust control objectives and strategies according to the real-time operating status of the power grid and coordinate with system protection devices.

[0126] This embodiment forms a complete fault defense closed loop through deep coordination between UPFC control and relay protection, as well as a system recovery strategy after fault clearance. First, the UPFC controller sets its current operating mode... (For example, Trend control Overload elimination (Fault current limiting / voltage support) is transmitted in real time to the station control layer relay protection information substation via the communication gateway. This signal is related to key outputs of the UPFC, such as the control voltage reference value. They are encapsulated together in a GOOSE message to ensure transmission speed; end-to-end latency <10ms.

[0127] Then, the line protection device receives the UPFC operation mode signal. .when At this time, the protection device dynamically adjusts its longitudinal differential braking characteristics based on a preset correlation matrix. For example, it adjusts the braking coefficient... From normal values Temporarily adjusted to ,in For example, 1.2. This is because the UPFC changes the phase of the fault current in current-limiting mode, and increasing the braking coefficient can prevent the protection from maloperating due to current phase distortion when there is a fault outside the zone.

[0128] In addition, during UPFC operation, especially during bypass activation, auxiliary criteria are added to help the protection correctly determine the fault location; the differential value of the fault current can also be calculated. ,like Exceeding the set threshold and accompanied by a drastic change in the bus voltage phase θ This strengthens the judgment weight of faults within the zone, resulting in a newly adjusted weight value. This criterion, together with the aforementioned differential protection mechanism, forms an "AND" logic, enhancing the selectivity of the protection under complex operating conditions.

[0129] Furthermore, the short-circuit current of the system containing the UPFC can be continuously monitored. and bus voltage When the following conditions are met: ,in, This is the normal load current value; and If the short circuit fault persists for more than 100 milliseconds, it is considered cleared. UPFC then automatically exits fault current limiting mode. Disconnect the bypass switch and the current-limiting reactor. Exiting operation, the control mode is preparing to return to normal.

[0130] Furthermore, after the fault is cleared, the UPFC is not immediately restored to the optimal power flow point, but rather restored gradually. In the first recovery phase, typically within 1-2 seconds, the UPFC is controlled to increase the power of the non-faulty lines to the device's safe limit. Next, ensure the system is out of emergency mode. In the second recovery phase, which takes place over the next few tens of seconds or even minutes, optimized power flow instructions can be reissued from the dispatch center. Slowly adjust the UPFC output to gradually restore the system to a new optimal operating point. During this process, monitor the load rate of critical lines to prevent further overload.

[0131] Finally, after the UPFC control event ends, all key indicators of the control process can be recorded, and an evaluation report can be generated, such as voltage recovery time. From the time of fault clearing to The time taken for the load to remain stable above 0.95 PU; load recovery rate :

[0132]

[0133] in For loads whose power is restored after a fault, The power loss load is caused by a fault.

[0134] Alternatively, based on a historical event database, parameter self-learning methods, such as gradient descent-based optimization algorithms, can be used to fine-tune the threshold parameters throughout the process, thereby improving the system's performance when dealing with similar events.
