Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the research field of coordinated control of distributed DC microgrids, and in particular relates to a DC microgrid non-communication bus voltage recovery control method. Background Art

[0002] As environmental problems and energy crises become more and more serious, smart microgrid technology based on renewable energy such as solar energy and wind energy has received more and more attention and application. At present, smart microgrids are mainly divided into two categories: AC microgrids and DC microgrids. Among them, DC microgrids have been favored by more and more scholars in recent years due to their advantages such as simple topology and control strategy.

[0003] One of the important goals of DC microgrid coordinated control is to achieve the output power of each distributed generation unit in proportion to its rated capacity. Among various control methods, droop control is the most widely used due to its simple structure, no need for communication, and high reliability. However, droop control has the disadvantage of mutual restraint between power sharing effect and bus voltage drop. In order to solve this problem, secondary control is widely used, and its control goal is to eliminate the bus voltage drop caused by droop control.

[0004] Some literature has proposed a method of using a central controller to send voltage compensation instructions to parallel converters synchronously. The central controller collects bus voltage information, calculates a unified voltage compensation signal, and sends it to each converter through the interconnection line to achieve synchronous compensation of voltage deviations between converters. However, the use of a central controller increases the cost and complexity of the system, and there is also a risk of single point failure.

[0005] Some literature has proposed a bus voltage compensation method that uses a distributed controller to replace a central controller. Each distributed unit communicates only with adjacent units, and uses a consensus algorithm to obtain the average value of the port voltage of each parallel converter. Then, each distributed unit uses the average value of the port voltage to compensate for the bus voltage deviation. Compared with the control method based on the central controller, the distributed control method increases the reliability of the system to a certain extent, but it has the following three shortcomings:

[0006] 1) It is a communication-based control strategy, which has the problems of high cost, high control complexity and low system reliability;

[0007] 2) The recovered quantity is the average value of the port voltage of each converter, which cannot compensate for the bus voltage drop caused by line resistance during long-distance transmission;

[0008] 3) The secondary control loop of each parallel converter utilizes an integrator. When an integration error occurs in the integrator, it will cause the port voltage command compensation value output by the converter secondary control loop to be different, thereby affecting the power sharing characteristics of the droop control;

[0009] In summary, proposing a communication-free bus voltage recovery control method for DC microgrid will have stronger engineering application value. Summary of the invention

[0010] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings and provide a DC microgrid non-communication bus voltage recovery control method, which provides a good reference value for engineering applications.

[0072] Specifically, the present invention verifies the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy based on the Matlab / Simulink simulation platform.

[0073] Based on the Matlab / Simulink simulation platform, a DC microgrid simulation model in an island state is built. The model includes two parallel buck converters with exactly the same rated power, and the load is a resistive load with a resistance of 20Ω. The main circuit parameters of the parallel buck converter are shown in Table 1.

[0074] Table 1 Circuit parameters of two parallel buck converters in the simulation model

[0075]

[0076] The controller parameters of the two parallel converters are exactly the same. All controller parameters used in the simulation experiment are shown in Table 2.

[0077] Table 2 Controller parameters of two parallel buck converters in the simulation model

[0078]

[0079] In order to verify the effectiveness of the present invention, the simulation experiment of the present invention includes two groups of comparative experiments and one group of feasibility verification experiments of the present invention. The comparative experiments include: first, the traditional droop control experiment; second, on the basis of the traditional droop control, adding secondary control to analyze the situation of directly using the line resistance estimation value with errors to directly restore the bus voltage;

[0080] 1) Experiment 1: The first set of comparative experiments

[0081] The first set of comparative experiments is a simulation experiment based on traditional droop control. The controller structure is shown in the figure below. Figure 3 The simulation results are shown in Figure 4 As shown in Figure 2. Among them, the simulated waveforms of the output currents of the two converters are shown in Figure 2. Figure 4 As shown in (a), in steady state, the output current i of converter 1 o1 =2.62A, the output current i of converter 2 o2 =1.97A, the ratio of the output current of the two converter ports is i o1 :io2 =1.3299. The bus voltage simulation waveform is as follows Figure 4 As shown in (b), in steady state, the bus voltage is 91.93V, which is consistent with the bus voltage command value In comparison, the deviation is 8.07V.

[0082] 2) Experiment 2: The second comparative experiment

[0083] The second set of comparative experiments adds secondary control to the traditional droop control and directly uses the estimated line resistance to restore the bus voltage. The controller structure is shown in the figure below: Figure 5 As shown. According to the current research on the line resistance estimation method in DC microgrid, it is difficult to accurately estimate all line resistances. Therefore, it is assumed here that the estimated value of the line resistance of converter 1 is r e1 =0.9Ω, the estimated value of the line resistance of converter 2 is r e2 =2.1Ω. The simulated waveforms of the output currents of the two converter ports are as follows: Figure 6 As shown in (a), the simulation waveforms of the output voltage of the two converter ports and the bus voltage are as follows: Figure 6 As shown in (b), it can be seen that due to the influence of the line resistance estimation error, the bus voltages estimated by the two converters using local information are different. Under the action of the secondary control integrator, the error continues to accumulate, eventually causing the system to diverge.

[0084] 3) Experiment 3: Feasibility verification experiment of the present invention

[0085] The third group of experiments is a feasibility verification experiment of the present invention. Among them, the bus voltage used for secondary control is the result calculated using the estimated value of line resistance and the converter port voltage; the simulation results are as follows Figure 7 As shown in Figure 2. Among them, the simulated waveforms of the output currents of the two converter ports are shown in Figure 2. Figure 7 As shown in (a), in steady state, the output current i of converter 1 o1 =2.62A, the output current of converter 2 is i o2 =2.38A, the ratio of the output currents of the two converters is i o1 :i o2 =1.100. The simulation waveform of bus voltage is as follows: Figure 7 As shown in (b), in steady state, the bus voltage DC bias is 100V, which is consistent with the bus voltage command Compared with the above, the complete recovery is basically achieved. The simulation waveforms of the voltage command compensation of the two converter ports are as follows: Figure 7 As shown in (c), it can be seen that under the regulation of the proposed control strategy, the outputs of the secondary control links of the two converters are exactly the same in steady state. During the regulation process, the simulation waveforms of the small signal reactive power of the two converters are as follows: Figure 7 (d) as shown.

[0086] In summary, in order to verify the feasibility of the control method, the author built a DC microgrid simulation model in an island state based on the Matlab / Simulink simulation platform, including two parallel buck converters, and the load is a pure resistance load. The simulation experiment results show that compared with the traditional control strategy, the present invention can effectively realize the non-communication bus voltage recovery while optimizing the power sharing effect of multiple parallel converters. The control strategy is correct and reliable, and provides a good reference value for engineering applications.
