Superconductive energy storage system

Abstract

The energy storage system includes multilevel tandem type inverter, asymmetry type current regulator, superconductive magnet, and control system. The magnet is connected to current source inverter of the current regulator. DC output ends of multiple voltage source inverters of the current regulator are connected to DC input ends of multiple inversion units of multilevel inverter. After being connected to bidirectional thyristor, exit at AC side of the multilevel type inverter is connected to electrical network. The current regulator converts large current in superconductive magnet to steady DC voltage to supply DC end of inverter, and the AC end of the inverter is connected to electrical network. Voltage unit of the current regulator is in mode of phase shift control. Switch off at zero current is realized in phase change of current. Phase shift SPWM mode is adopted for switch control. Features are: reducing switching loss, and prolonging service life of switch tube.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a superconducting energy storage circuit of a transmission and distribution network. Background technique [0002] Due to the particularity of electric energy itself, the power system has always lacked energy storage and power control links. With the development of large-scale systems and the requirements of the power market, power systems increasingly need links that can be flexibly controlled. The current energy storage methods mainly include battery energy storage, supercapacitor energy storage and pumped hydro storage. The charging and discharging speed of battery energy storage is slow, cannot meet the instantaneous high power exchange, and has environmental pollution problems; the energy storage capacity of supercapacitor is small, and the number of charge and discharge times is limited; pumped energy storage is limited by the environment, and its efficiency is too low. Superconducting energy storage has high energy sto...

Problems solved by technology

The problem that exists is: charge and discharge not only need two sets of equipments, and if the charging equipment should not only keep the magnet current constant but also complete the fast charging function, then the capacity is very large, such as U.S. Patent 6,157,094 "superconducting magnet and its power supply device"; discharge equipment , Figure 1 shows the US2002 / 0030952 superconducting magnet Discharging method and device", 10 and 11 in the specific structure diagram are the magnet part, 19 is the magnet charging power supply, and the other parts are the discharge part, that is, the chopper, which directly converts the current of the superconducting magnet into a voltage

In order to meet the requirements of high power, this will inevitably require the capacity of the switch tube to be very large, and even require the switch tube to be connected in series and parallel, which will inevitably affect the stability of the inverter and is not conducive to maintenance.

Moreover, since in the case of high power, the frequency of the switching tube cannot be very high, so the harmonics cannot be effectively suppressed.
