Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of power supply control of a power generation vehicle. Background Art

[0002] The application fields of power generation vehicles are quite extensive, such as disaster relief, field construction, train power supply, etc., all of which rely on emergency power generation vehicles to provide reliable power sources. In order to ensure the reliable power supply of emergency power generation vehicles, many methods for stable control of power generation vehicles have been proposed. One of the methods is to apply the energy storage system (ESS) to the synchronous generator (SG) inside the power generation vehicle to form a flexible generator set (FG). At present, in order to synchronize the power of each synchronous generator, a centralized control mode is adopted: a lumped ESS corresponds to multiple synchronous generators SG, and information needs to be collected from different power networks and then transmitted to the central processor. The huge amount of data brings communication delays and computing bottlenecks to the processor. In addition, the lumped ESS is required to have a large capacity, and additional control is required to exit the ESS when the system reaches its nominal state. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a distributed power supply control method for a generator vehicle based on a flexible generator set, comprising the following steps:

[0007] Configure an independent MPC control module for each flexible generator set FG;

[0008] The MPC control module collects the operating status parameters of the corresponding subsystem in real time, and performs model predictive control in combination with the reference signal, and outputs the predictive control output to the flexible generator set FG;

[0009] The controller of the flexible generator set FG uses the predicted control output as the power supply control input and outputs power according to the power supply control input.

[0013] The state variable x(k+1) at time k+1 is predicted by the predictive control model and substituted into the dynamic mechanical equations of the flexible generator set FG to calculate the predictive control input vector u(k+1) at time k+1, and the predictive control output is calculated according to the predictive control input vector u(k+1) at time k+1.

[0014] Furthermore, based on the SG dynamic model and the dynamic model of the ESS power controller, the FG dynamic mechanical equations are established:

[0015]

[0017] In the formula, i represents the subsystem number, δ i and ω i are the rotor angle and speed, ω s is the fundamental rotor electrical speed, ω n is the synchronous angular frequency; M is the inertia constant of FG, K Di is the damping coefficient of FG; P i is the total output power of FG; P si Represents the output power of ESS; P mi Represents the mechanical power of the synchronous generator; P ci Indicates the setting value of the turbine speed governor of the synchronous generator; P srefi represents the reference set point of the ESS transmitted active power; T si , T′ si They represent the time constant of ESS transmitting active power and the time constant transient short-circuit value respectively; T gi , R i They represent the time constant and droop coefficient of the turbine governor of the synchronous generator respectively; P ei Represents the output power of the synchronous generator; T doi , T′ doi They represent the time constant and transient short-circuit value of the synchronous generator d axis respectively; E fi Indicates the excitation voltage of the synchronous generator; u fi Represents the output voltage of the synchronous generator; x di, x′ di Represent d-axis synchronous reactance and transient reactance respectively; I di ,I qi Represent the d-axis and q-axis currents of the synchronous generator respectively;

[0018] According to the FG dynamic mechanics equations, we can get the following in the i-th subsystem:

[0019] State variables of the predictive control model: x i =[δ i ,ω i ,P i ,P si ] T ;

[0020] Predictive control input vector of the predictive control model: u i =[P ci ,u fi ,P srefi ] T ;

[0021] The predictive control outputs of the predictive control model include: E fi , P ci , P srefi ; According to E in the FG dynamic mechanics equations fi with u fi The relationship calculation E fi .

[0028] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0029] 1. In the present invention, each FG has its own local controller (MPC control module). The local controller only needs the local subsystem model and local measurement to generate the optimal control behavior, which solves the risk problems of the controller in the centralized control with a single center to solve the optimal control problem: communication delay and computing bottleneck.

[0030] 2. The present invention integrates ESS and SG into one FG. Compared with the lumped ESS, each FG only needs to be equipped with a smaller ESS, and even if some of them are out of service, the remaining ESSs can still work.

[0031] 3. MPC obtains the optimal control parameters of the system at the next moment (predictive control input vector u(k+1)) by real-time collection of system information. The optimal control parameters change in real time with the operation of the system. When a disturbance occurs in the system, the value of the optimal control parameter can be adjusted in time to restore the system to a stable state as soon as possible, thereby improving the transient stability of the system.

[0032] 4. Use ω n , δ ref As a reference signal, each FG of distributed control can maintain power angle synchronization.

[0033] 5. The upper and lower limits in the constraint function are set according to requirements, making MPC control flexible and scalable. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0076]

[0077] Step 3: When the ESS is not running at full load, the FG dynamic model is reformed to obtain:

[0078]

[0079] Step 4: When ESS does not reach its power capacity and reaches its power capacity, the inertia constant and damping coefficient of FG are:

[0080]

[0081] Step 5: Ignoring the angular frequency and mechanical power deviation of the SG after the load change, when the ESS just reaches its power limit, the power output of the ESS is calculated as:

[0082]

[0083] Step 6: Considering that when FG starts at full load, it can have the maximum inertia constant and damping coefficient that the corresponding ESS can provide, the power capacity of ESS is:

[0084]

[0085] Where P N is the nominal active power of SG.

[0086] Step 7: For multiple emergencies, the recovery band of the interconnected system frequency should be within 10 minutes. Considering the bidirectional power flow of ESS, ESS usually retains half of its energy capacity. Therefore, the energy capacity of ESS is: Thereby ensuring the normal operation of the system.

[0087] 4) Determine the MPC control strategy equation group using the FG model

[0098] MPC (Model Predictive Control) applies the first control action in the production sequence to the system and captures updated measurements from the system output. The optimal control problem is updated using the new measurements and the above process is repeated by advancing the prediction time by one step, thereby achieving optimal control of the system and improving the transient stability of the system.
