Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of flexible DC grid technology, and more specifically, to a method and system for collaborative optimization configuration of current limiting device parameters in a DC grid. Background Technology
[0002] With the large-scale integration of new energy power sources and their increasing application demands in various scenarios of new power systems, DC power grids, characterized by "low inertia," face severe challenges in short-circuit fault protection. Specifically, fault currents rise rapidly, have high amplitudes, and lack zero-crossing points, requiring relay protection and circuit breakers to interrupt high-amplitude DC currents of several kA or even tens of kA within hundreds of microseconds. This far exceeds the technical capabilities of existing relay protection and circuit breakers. Therefore, it is necessary to add fault current-limiting devices to restrict short-circuit fault currents.
[0003] Currently, commonly used fault current limiting devices in DC power grids include current limiting reactors (CLRs), fault current limiters (FCLs), and direct current circuit breakers (DCCBs). To ensure the DC power grid still has power transmission capacity after a fault occurs, DC circuit breakers should be installed on both sides of the line; when a fault occurs, the faulty line is disconnected, ensuring the normal operation of the non-faulty parts of the grid. However, relying solely on DC circuit breakers to interrupt fault current leads to excessively large opening capacities and high costs. Generally, current limiting reactors and fault current limiters are added to suppress fault current and reduce the cost of DC circuit breakers.
[0004] In current engineering projects, the differences in parameters such as converter stations and transmission lines are generally not considered. A simple average allocation strategy is often adopted. At the same time, the parameter configuration of current-limiting reactors and fault current limiters are generally considered separately, without considering the coordinated design and optimization of the parameters of the two current-limiting devices. This also means that there is still room for optimization in the total cost of current-limiting devices in the current DC power grid.
[0005] To reduce the cost of protection equipment while ensuring the reliability of DC power grid operation, it is necessary to study the coordinated optimization configuration of various fault current limiting devices. Currently, using existing electromagnetic transient simulations to obtain short-circuit current characteristics for the coordinated design of DC power grid fault current limiting device parameters is slow and inefficient. Therefore, a method for coordinated optimization configuration of current limiting device parameters is needed. Summary of the Invention

[0048] Figure 1 A flowchart illustrating the collaborative optimization configuration 100 of current limiting device parameters for a DC power grid according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the method for collaborative optimization configuration of current limiting device parameters in a DC power grid provided by this invention considers the collaborative operation of different current limiting devices. Under the premise of ensuring the reliability of DC power grid operation, it selects the configuration scheme with the lowest total cost of current limiting reactors, fault current limiters, and DC circuit breakers as the optimal configuration scheme for DC power grid current limiting devices, thus reducing the cost of protection equipment. It has a certain degree of versatility and can be applied to different types of fault current limiting device configurations under different DC power grid topologies. The collaborative optimization configuration method is simple to implement and easy to expand and promote. The method 100 for collaborative optimization configuration of current limiting device parameters in a DC power grid provided by this invention starts from step 101. In step 101, the actual topology of the DC power grid is obtained, and a numerical solution model of the DC power grid is established based on the actual topology.
[0049] Preferably, the establishment of a numerical solution model for the DC power grid based on the actual topology includes:
[0050] Based on the actual topology, the converter, transmission line, DC current limiting device, and fault branch are all equivalent to RLC branches, and the current equations of each mesh are written based on the mesh node current method to construct a numerical solution model for the DC power grid.
[0051] Preferably, in the equivalent case, the capacitor parameters of the converter are determined based on the equivalent capacitance correction model; the transmission line uses a lumped parameter model; the current-limiting reactor corresponding to each converter station is simplified to a single value, and the fault current limiter is simplified to a single value; the DC current limiting device is equivalent to an equivalent circuit model that varies with time based on the operating time; for the fault branch, when an inter-pole short-circuit fault occurs, the fault branch is equivalent to a resistor connected between the two fault poles, and each converter station corresponds to one fault point.
[0052] In this invention, firstly, based on the actual topology of the DC power grid, the converter, transmission line, DC current limiting device, and fault branch are all equivalent to RLC branches, and the current equations of each mesh are written using the mesh node current method to establish a numerical solution model for the DC power grid.
[0053] In the equivalent process, the converter is equivalent to an RLC series branch, and the converter's capacitance parameters are determined using an equivalent capacitance correction model. A lumped parameter model is used for the transmission line. Since the equivalent capacitance values of the line parameters are much smaller than those of the converter valves, the calculation error after line equivalence is within 5%. For ease of calculation, due to the topological symmetry of each converter station, the current-limiting reactor corresponding to each converter station is simplified to a single value, and the fault current limiter is also simplified to a single value. When equivalencing the DC current limiting device, its operating time should be considered, and it should be equivalent to a time-varying equivalent circuit model. The fault branch here only considers the most severe fault scenario, i.e., an inter-pole short-circuit fault in the DC grid. In the event of an inter-pole short-circuit fault, the fault branch is equivalent to a small resistor connected between the two faulty poles. Each converter station corresponds to one fault point.
[0054] In step 102, based on the numerical solution model of the DC power grid, the fault current of the DC power grid under different current-limiting reactor values is calculated. The upper limit of the fault current is determined according to the lower limit of the converter station blocking current. The current-limiting reactor value corresponding to the upper limit of the fault current is selected as the lower limit of the current-limiting reactor value. The upper limit of the current-limiting reactor value is determined according to the dynamic performance requirements of the power grid.
[0055] Combination Figure 2As shown, in this invention, without considering the fault current limiter, the value of the current-limiting reactor is modified, and an approximate numerical solution for the fault current in the DC grid under different current-limiting reactor values is calculated based on the constructed DC grid numerical solution model. Then, according to the DC grid parameters, a lower limit for the converter station blocking current is set, and the current-limiting reactor value corresponding to the fault current in the DC grid being the lower limit of the converter station blocking current is selected as the lower limit for the current-limiting reactor value. Furthermore, an upper limit for the current-limiting reactor value is determined based on the dynamic performance requirements of the grid. Finally, the reference range for the current-limiting reactor value in the current-limiting design scheme is determined based on the lower and upper limits of the current-limiting reactor value.
[0056] In step 103, the maximum breaking current of the DC circuit breaker is determined, the value of the current limiting reactor is initialized based on the lower limit of the current limiting reactor value, and the reference value of the current limiting reactor is determined.
[0057] In step 104, based on the DC grid numerical solution model, the DC grid fault current is calculated under the current current limiting reactor reference value and different fault current limiter values, and the fault current limiter configuration scheme when the DC grid fault current is less than or equal to the maximum breaking current is obtained.
[0058] In step 105, the cost of different configuration schemes is calculated, and the configuration scheme with the lowest cost is selected as the alternative scheme.
[0059] Combination Figure 2 As shown, in this invention, the maximum breaking current of the DC circuit breaker is determined based on the breaking capacity and cost requirements of existing DC circuit breakers. The value L of the current-limiting reactor is determined based on the lower limit of the current-limiting reactor value. CLR This serves as a benchmark value. Based on this benchmark value, the parameters L for the fault current limiter within the power grid are then designed. FCL Set the boundary condition to the maximum breaking current of the DC circuit breaker, and calculate the DC grid fault current under different fault current limiter parameters according to the DC grid numerical solution model in step 101. Obtain the DC grid fault current limiter parameter configuration scheme that makes the fault current no greater than the maximum breaking current of the DC circuit breaker. Then compare the costs of the different fault current limiter parameter configuration schemes obtained, and select the configuration scheme with lower cost as the alternative scheme.
[0060] In this invention, in order to better fit actual engineering conditions and reduce the complexity of equipment manufacturing, the current limiting inductor in the fault current limiter is an integer multiple of 5mH, and the current limiting reactor is an integer multiple of 10mH.
[0061] In step 106, the reference value of the current limiting reactor is increased by a preset step size, the reference value of the current limiting reactor is updated, and it is determined whether the updated reference value of the current limiting reactor is greater than the upper limit of the current limiting reactor value. If it is, proceed to step 107; otherwise, proceed to step 104 to recalculate.
[0062] In step 107, the optimal solution is selected from the alternative solutions based on the configuration requirements, and the parameters are configured based on the optimal solution.
[0063] Preferably, the fault current limiter value is an integer multiple of 5mH; the reference value of the current limiting reactor value is an integer multiple of 10mH.
[0064] Combination Figure 2 As shown, in this invention, according to L CLR =L CLR The value of the current-limiting reactor is increased by +10mH in a fixed step size. It is then determined whether the updated baseline value of the current-limiting reactor is greater than the upper limit of the current-limiting reactor value. If yes, proceed to step 107; otherwise, return to step 104 and repeat the calculation to obtain fault current limiter parameter configuration schemes under different current-limiting reactor values. Finally, based on overall current-limiting performance, operating costs, and other configuration requirements, one parameter configuration scheme is selected as the optimal scheme from the alternative schemes under different current-limiting reactor parameters, and parameter configuration is performed based on the optimal scheme.
[0065] The method of this invention is applicable to the coordinated optimization configuration of current limiting device parameters in DC power grids, and its main advantages are:
[0066] 1. By considering the coordinated operation of different current limiting devices, this invention selects the configuration scheme with the lowest total cost of current limiting reactor, fault current limiter and DC circuit breaker as the optimal configuration scheme of DC grid current limiting device under the premise of ensuring the reliability of DC grid operation, thereby reducing the cost of protection equipment.
[0067] 2. In the calculation process, the method of the present invention establishes a numerical model of the DC power grid, quickly calculates the fault current inside the DC power grid, and obtains the corresponding fault current level under different values of the current limiting device. Based on this, the parameters of the current limiting device are optimized and configured, resulting in high calculation efficiency.
[0068] 3. The method of the present invention has a certain degree of versatility and can be applied to different types of fault current limiting device configurations under different DC grid topologies.
[0069] 4. The method for collaborative optimization configuration of current limiting device parameters proposed in this invention is simple to implement and easy to expand and promote.
[0070] The following specific examples illustrate the embodiments of the present invention.
[0071] In an embodiment of the present invention, the step of collaboratively optimizing the parameters of the current limiting device of the DC power grid within a certain time period includes:
[0072] Step 1: Input DC grid parameters. Based on the actual topology of the DC grid, the converter, transmission line, DC current limiting device, and fault branch are all equivalent to RLC branches. Using the mesh node current method, write the current equations for each mesh and establish a numerical solution model for the DC grid.
[0073] The power grid structure in this example is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the system consists of four overhead DC transmission lines, interconnected by metal return lines mounted on the same pole. DC circuit breakers are used to quickly clear line faults and isolate faulty poles; the circuit breakers operate within 5ms. The metal return lines are grounded at converter station 4 via a 15Ω resistor. Key simulation parameters are shown in Table 1.
[0074] Table 1 Key parameters of each converter station in the system
[0075] Converter Station 1 Converter Station 2 Converter Station 3 Converter Station 4 Submodule capacitance value (mF) 15 8 8 15 Bridge arm reactance (mH) 50 100 100 50 Transformer rated capacity (MVA) 1700 850 850 1700 Transformer turns ratio (kV) 230 / 291 230 / 291 525 / 291 525 / 291 Pole-line current-limiting reactor (mH) 150 150 150 150 Neutral current-limiting reactor (mH) 300 300 300 300
[0076] For the power grid structure in this example, a total of 8 fault points are set. For each different fault point, the DC power grid is simplified. The equivalent circuit model of the DC power grid fault corresponding to each fault point is as follows: Figure 4 As shown. Each specific part is equivalent to the following description.
[0077] Without the converter being locked out, the modular multilevel converter (Modular) can be used.
[0078] Multilevel Converter (MMC) is simplified to Figure 5 The structure shown is as follows. Where:
[0079]
[0080] In the formula, N SM r and r are the total number of capacitors in a bridge arm and the on-resistance of the switching device, respectively; C0 is the capacitance of a single bridge arm capacitor; R0 and L0 are the resistance and inductance of a bridge arm, respectively; ε is the equivalent capacitance parameter.
[0081]
[0082] m represents the modulation ratio. Depending on the actual situation, the value of the modulation ratio can be selected, thereby calculating ε as the equivalent parameter of the capacitor.
[0083] The transmission line uses a lumped parameter model. Since the equivalent capacitance value of the line parameters is much smaller than the equivalent capacitance value of the converter valve, the calculation error after the line is equivalent is within 5%.
[0084] When a DC current limiting device is equivalent, it should be considered as an equivalent circuit model that varies with time, based on its operating time.
[0085] by Figure 6 Taking the DC current limiting device with the structure shown as an example, we analyze the specific equivalent circuit model of the DC current limiting device. In the figure, D1, D2, D3, and D4 are diodes, G1 is a solid-state switching device, mov is a surge arrester, RS is a buffer resistor, and Cs is a buffer capacitor.
[0086] When the current limiting device is not activated, G1 is in the open state and can be equivalent to a small resistor.
[0087] After the fault occurs, during the initial shutdown phase of G1, the DC current limiting device is equivalent to L. FCL
[0088] After G1 is turned off for a period of time, the voltage across the current limiting device is greater than the reference voltage of the surge arrester. At this time, the current is transferred to the surge arrester branch, and the DC current limiting device is equivalent to a single surge arrester.
[0089] A faulty branch can be equivalent to a fault resistor of different resistance values depending on the actual fault situation. After the equivalence is completed, the different components after equivalence are combined to form the fault.
[0090] In the event of an inter-pole short-circuit fault, an equivalent circuit of the DC power grid is established between the two faulty poles after the short-circuit fault occurs. For example... Figure 7 As shown.
[0091] according to Figure 4 The equivalent circuit model shown is used to write the current equations for each mesh using the mesh node current method, and then organize them to form a set of differential equations for the entire network.
[0092] It can be represented as
[0093]
[0094] In the formula, L is the inductance matrix, R is the resistance matrix, C is the capacitance matrix, and U... FCL This is the voltage matrix across the current limiting device. It can be represented as:
[0095]
[0096] In the formula, R g The on-state impedance of the current limiting device is generally negligible, C. FCL For the buffer branch capacitor, u movThe voltage across the surge arrester in the energy-absorbing branch needs to be determined based on the characteristics of the MOV (Medium-Voltage Transformer) and its corresponding VA (Voltage Amplifier) characteristic curve. The settings are then configured according to this curve. t0 is the time when the current-limiting device switches off, and t1 is the time when the current is completely transferred to the energy-absorbing branch. In this algorithm, to facilitate calculation and improve efficiency, the current is considered to have completely transferred to the energy-absorbing branch when the voltage of the buffer branch is equal to the residual voltage of the surge arrester in the energy-absorbing branch.
[0097] i = [i a (t),i1(t),i b (t),i R1 (t)] T Let u be the line current vector, u = [u a (t),u1(t),u b (t),u R1 (t)] T U is the voltage vector of the equivalent capacitance of the converter station. s and I s These are the second-nearest steady-state input vectors, respectively. Represented as...
[0098]
[0099] The system of equations can be rearranged into the form dx = AX + B, where A is the circuit parameter matrix of the DC power grid, B is the steady-state excitation matrix of the DC power grid, X is the state parameter matrix to be determined, and dx represents the differential matrix of X. In the equation, X = [i, u] T Matrix A and B are shown below.
[0100]
[0101] The differential equations were then solved using the 4th-order 5th-level Runge-Kutta method in MATLAB, where matrix A is a time-varying matrix.
[0102] Step 2: Without considering the fault current limiter, modify the value of the current-limiting reactor and use the fault current calculation method described in Step 1 to calculate the approximate numerical solution of the fault current in the DC grid under different current-limiting reactor values. The value of the current-limiting reactor is reflected in the L matrix of Equation (1). Based on the DC grid parameters, set the lower limit of the converter station blocking current, and constrain the lower limit of the current-limiting reactor value accordingly. Based on the dynamic performance requirements of the grid, set the upper limit of the current-limiting reactor value. Use this as the reference range for the current-limiting reactor value in the current-limiting design scheme.
[0103] In this example, the maximum allowable current of the converter arm is set to 6kA. Through calculation, the lower limit of the current-limiting reactor value is set to 100mH. Since an excessively large reactor value can lead to system instability, in order not to affect the dynamic performance of the DC grid, the upper limit of the current-limiting reactor is set to 300mH in this example.
[0104] Step 3: Determine the maximum breaking current of the DC circuit breaker based on its breaking capacity and cost requirements. According to common capacity values for DC circuit breakers in existing projects, the maximum breaking current of the DC circuit breaker in this example is set to 15kA.
[0105] Set the value of the current-limiting reactor to the lower limit, i.e., 100mH. Based on the DC grid numerical solution model in step 1, calculate the DC grid fault current under different fault current limiter parameters. Obtain a DC grid fault current limiter parameter configuration scheme that ensures the fault current does not exceed the maximum breaking current of the DC circuit breaker.
[0106] Step 4: Compare the costs of different fault current limiter parameter configuration schemes and prioritize the current limiting scheme with lower cost.
[0107] The cost of a current limiting device includes the cost of the current limiting reactor and the cost of the fault current limiter. The total cost of the current limiting device can be approximately expressed as C = C CLR +C FCL The cost of a current-limiting reactor is approximately proportional to its value. The cost of a fault current limiter is mainly concentrated in the high-power IGBT module, and is related to L... FCL Given the low correlation, the current-limiting reactor should be as small as possible, and the number of fault current limiters should be as few as possible.
[0108] Step 5: Increase the value of the current-limiting reactor by a fixed step size, and repeat steps 2-5 to obtain the optimal parameter coordination configuration scheme for the fault current-limiting device under different current-limiting reactor values. The lowest-cost coordinated parameter configuration scheme for the fault current-limiting device can then be selected using a computer.

[0111] In this example, the four lowest-cost schemes under different current-limiting reactor values are shown in the table below. The cost difference between the four schemes is not significant. Designers can select the final scheme from several current-limiting design schemes according to actual needs. If it is desired to reduce the impact of excessive current-limiting reactor values on the steady state of the power grid, current-limiting scheme 1 can be selected. If it is desired to reduce the number of new current-limiting devices, current-limiting scheme 4 can be selected. Scheme 2 can be considered as a compromise between the two.
