[0033] In the following description, specific details such as specific system structures and technologies are presented for the purpose of illustration rather than limitation, so as to thoroughly understand the embodiments of the present invention. However, those skilled in the art should clearly understand that the present invention can also be implemented in other embodiments without these specific details. In other cases, detailed descriptions of well-known systems, devices, circuits, and methods are omitted to avoid unnecessary details from interfering with the description of the present invention.

[0034] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, the following will be described through specific embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0035] Refer to Figure 1 , which shows a flowchart for implementing a control method for a three-phase PFC circuit provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Among them, the execution subject of the control method for the three-phase PFC circuit can be a terminal, and this terminal can be a controller.

[0036] Refer to Figure 1 , and the control method for the three-phase PFC circuit is described in detail as follows:

[0037] In S101, working parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit are obtained.

[0038] In this embodiment, the working parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit can be obtained in real time, and whether the three-phase PFC circuit is in a light load state can be judged by detecting the working parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit, so as to judge whether one or two phases can stop working.

[0039] Among them, the working parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit can include at least one of the input current, input voltage, output current, and output voltage of the three-phase PFC circuit.

[0040] In S102, if the working parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit meet the first preset condition, then control one phase of the three-phase PFC circuit to stop working, and at the same time control the remaining two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit to continue working;

[0041] Among them, one phase of the three-phase PFC circuit is any one phase of the three-phase PFC circuit or one phase determined according to the first preset rotation order.

[0042] In this embodiment, if it is detected that the operating parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit meet the first preset condition, it can be determined that the three-phase PFC circuit is in a light load state. At this time, one phase of the three-phase PFC circuit can be controlled not to work, and the other two phases continue to work to supply power to the load through the remaining two phases. Exemplarily, the U phase can be controlled not to work, and the V phase and the W phase can be controlled to continue working.

[0043] In a possible implementation manner, if the operating parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit meet the first preset condition, any one phase of the three-phase PFC circuit is selected, and this phase is controlled not to work, while the remaining two phases are controlled to continue working.

[0044] In a possible implementation manner, if the operating parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit meet the first preset condition, one phase is selected according to the first preset rotation order, and this phase is controlled not to work, while the remaining two phases are controlled to continue working.

[0045] Among them, the first preset rotation order can be set according to actual requirements. For example, it can be the order of U, V, W, or the order of U, W, V, etc., and no specific limitation is made here.

[0046] Through the first preset rotation order, different phases can be controlled not to work each time, so that the corresponding devices of each phase can take turns to rest, improving their service life. Exemplarily, assuming that the first preset rotation order is the order of U, V, W, then the U phase is selected to stop working this time, and the V phase is selected to stop working according to this order next time, and so on.

[0047] As can be seen from the above description, in this embodiment, by obtaining the operating parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit, when it is detected that the operating parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit meet the first preset condition, one phase of the three-phase PFC circuit is controlled to stop working, and at the same time, the remaining two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit are controlled to continue working. Thus, when the three-phase PFC circuit is in a light load, one phase can be controlled not to work, and the load is powered by two phases, which can save energy. Moreover, by making a certain phase not work, the service life of the corresponding device of this phase can be improved; in addition, any one phase of the above three-phase PFC circuit is any one phase of the three-phase PFC circuit or one phase determined according to the first preset rotation order. Selecting a certain phase that stops working according to the first preset rotation order can make each phase take turns not to work, ensuring the balanced service life of the corresponding devices of each phase and improving the availability of the three-phase PFC circuit.

[0048] In some embodiments, the "controlling one phase of the three-phase PFC circuit to stop working and at the same time controlling the remaining two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit to continue working" in S102 above may include:

[0049] If the three-phase PFC circuit is a three-phase four-wire PFC circuit, stop sending drive signals to the switching tubes corresponding to one of the three phases of the three-phase PFC circuit, and at the same time continue to send drive signals to the switching tubes corresponding to the remaining two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit;

[0050] If the three-phase PFC circuit is a three-phase three-wire PFC circuit, stop sending drive signals to the switching tubes corresponding to one of the three phases of the three-phase PFC circuit, and at the same time adjust the duty cycles of the drive signals of the switching tubes corresponding to the remaining two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit to adjust the current phases of the remaining two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit, so that the remaining two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit operate in the single-phase PFC mode.

[0051] The three-phase four-wire PFC circuit is a three-phase PFC circuit with a neutral line (N line), and its structure is as Figure 2 shown. The three-phase four-wire PFC circuit includes ports U, V, W, and N for connecting to the input power supply, inductors L1, L2, and L3, capacitors C1, C2, C3, C4, and C5, and switching tubes S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, and S6. Both ends of capacitor C4 are connected to BUS+ and NBUS respectively, and both ends of capacitor C5 are connected to NBUS and BUS- respectively. The specific connection relationship of this circuit can be referred to Figure 2 , and will not be elaborated here.

[0052] Since each phase of the three-phase four-wire PFC circuit can form a loop with the neutral line, therefore, the three phases do not affect each other, and any one phase or any two phases can be controlled to stop working, and the remaining two phases or the remaining one phase can be controlled to continue working, and it can work normally without adjusting the phase.

[0053] The three-phase PFC circuit needs to continuously send drive signals to the switching tubes corresponding to each phase to make each phase work. Therefore, when the three-phase PFC circuit is a three-phase four-wire PFC circuit, only need to stop sending drive signals to the switching tubes corresponding to one of the three phases of the three-phase PFC circuit, then this phase will stop working, and continue to send drive signals to the switching tubes corresponding to the remaining two phases, then the remaining two phases can continue to work. Among them, in the three-phase four-wire PFC circuit, the drive signals sent to each switching tube corresponding to the remaining two phases can remain the same as the drive signals sent to this switching tube when the three phases work together, and no adjustment is required.

[0054] Refer to Figure 2 , the switching tubes corresponding to phase U are S1 and S2, the switching tubes corresponding to phase V are S3 and S4, and the switching tubes corresponding to phase W are S5 and S6. When controlling phase V not to work, stop sending drive signals to S3 and S4, and continue to send drive signals to S1, S2, S5, and S6.

[0055] It should be noted that continuing to send drive signals to the switching tubes corresponding to the remaining two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit does not mean sending the same drive signals to the switching tubes corresponding to the remaining two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit. It is just a way of saying the opposite of stopping sending drive signals.

[0056] The three-phase three-wire PFC circuit is a PFC circuit without a neutral line, and its structure is as Figure 3 shown. The three-phase three-wire PFC circuit includes ports U, V, and W for connecting to the input power supply, inductors L1, L2, and L3, capacitors C1, C2, C3, and C4, and switching tubes S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, and S6. The two ends of capacitor C4 are respectively connected to BUS+ and BUS-. The specific connection relationship of this circuit can be referred to Figure 3 , and will not be elaborated here.

[0057] Since the three-phase three-wire PFC has no neutral line, at least two phases are required to form a loop. That is to say, the three-phase three-wire PFC can control at most one phase to stop working and cannot control two phases to stop working. After controlling two of the three phases of the three-phase three-wire PFC circuit to stop working, the circuit can no longer work normally.

[0058] In the three-phase three-wire PFC circuit, controlling one phase to stop working and the remaining two phases to continue working not only requires turning off the drive of the phase to be stopped, but also requires adjusting the duty cycle of the drive signals of the switching tubes corresponding to the remaining two phases, so as to adjust the current phase of the remaining two phases and make the remaining two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit work in the single-phase PFC mode. The single-phase PFC mode refers to the working mode of the single-phase PFC. In the working mode of the single-phase PFC, the drive signals sent to each switching tube to be working are different from those sent to the switching tube to be working in the working mode of the three-phase PFC. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the duty cycle of the drive signals of the switching tubes corresponding to the remaining two phases.

[0059] Refer to Figure 3 , assuming that the V phase stops working and the U and W phases continue to work. At this time, the three-phase three-wire PFC circuit is equivalent to a single-phase PFC composed of UW and needs to work in the single-phase PFC mode. For example, the U phase can be regarded as the L line and the W phase can be regarded as the N line. At this time, it is equivalent to a single-phase PFC of L-N.

[0060] Refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 On the left is the current phase of the three phases when all three phases of the three-phase three-wire PFC circuit are working, Figure 4 On the right is the current phase of the single-phase PFC composed of the U and W phases after the V phase is turned off. Compared with the original current phase of the U phase, this current phase has changed by 30 degrees. This change can be achieved by adjusting the duty cycle of the corresponding drive signals, and specific adjustments can be made using existing methods, which will not be elaborated here.

[0061] In some embodiments, the operating parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit include the input current of the three-phase PFC circuit;

[0062] The first preset condition is that the input current of the three-phase PFC circuit is less than the first preset current threshold.

[0063] In this embodiment, it is determined whether the three-phase PFC circuit is in a light load state by the input current. When the input current is less than the first preset current threshold, it is determined that the three-phase PFC circuit is in a light load state, and one phase of the three-phase PFC circuit is controlled to stop working, while the remaining two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit are controlled to continue working.

[0064] Among them, the first preset current threshold can be set according to actual needs without specific limitation.

[0065] In some embodiments, the first preset condition is that the input current of the three-phase PFC circuit is less than the first preset current threshold, and the duration for which the input current of the three-phase PFC circuit is less than the first preset current threshold is greater than the first preset duration.

[0066] In this embodiment, in order to prevent misjudgment or prevent one phase from repeatedly switching between the working state and the non-working state, on the basis of determining that the input current is less than the first preset current threshold, an additional condition is added, and at the same time, it is determined whether the duration for which the input current is less than the first preset current threshold is greater than the first preset duration. If both are satisfied, it is determined that the three-phase PFC circuit is in a light load state, and one phase of the three-phase PFC circuit is controlled to stop working, while the remaining two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit are controlled to continue working.

[0067] Among them, the first preset duration can be set according to actual needs. For example, it can be 5 seconds, 10 seconds, etc.

[0068] In some embodiments, after obtaining the operating parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit, the control method of the three-phase PFC circuit further includes:

[0069] If the operating parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit meet the second preset condition and the three-phase PFC circuit is a three-phase four-wire PFC circuit, then two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit are controlled to stop working, while the remaining one phase of the three-phase PFC circuit is controlled to continue working;

[0070] Among them, two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit are any two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit or two phases determined according to the second preset rotation order.

[0071] When the operating parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit meet the second preset condition, the three-phase PFC circuit is in a light load state to a different extent from when the operating parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit meet the first preset condition. The load rate of the three-phase PFC circuit when its operating parameters meet the second preset condition is less than the load rate of the three-phase PFC circuit when its operating parameters meet the first preset condition.

[0072] For example, when the operating parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit meet the first preset condition, the load rate of the three-phase PFC circuit is 50%; when the operating parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit meet the second preset condition, the load rate of the three-phase PFC circuit is 30%.

[0073] Since the three-phase four-wire PFC circuit can retain only one phase for operation, when the circuit meets the second preset condition, two of the three phases of the circuit can be controlled to stop working, and at the same time, the remaining one phase can be controlled to continue working.

[0074] Among them, the second preset rotation sequence and the first preset rotation sequence can be the same or different, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0075] In some embodiments, controlling two of the three phases of the three-phase PFC circuit to stop working and at the same time controlling the remaining one phase of the three-phase PFC circuit to continue working includes:

[0076] Stop sending drive signals to the switching tubes corresponding to two of the three phases of the three-phase PFC circuit, and at the same time continue to send drive signals to the switching tubes corresponding to the remaining one phase of the three-phase PFC circuit.

[0077] According to the foregoing description, any two phases of the three-phase four-wire PFC circuit do not affect each other. Therefore, to control two of the phases to stop working, it is only necessary to directly turn off the drive of the switching tubes corresponding to these two phases, and the drive of the switching tubes of the remaining one phase continues to be maintained.

[0078] See Figure 5 , Figure 5 On the left are the current phases of the three phases when all three phases of the three-phase four-wire PFC circuit are working. Figure 5 The implementation arrow on the right is the current phase of phase U of the three-phase four-wire PFC circuit after phases V and W are turned off. Since there is a neutral line, turning off phases V and W does not affect the current phase of phase U, and the current flows from U to N.

[0079] In some embodiments, the operating parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit include the input current of the three-phase PFC circuit;

[0080] The second preset condition is that the input current of the three-phase PFC circuit is less than the second preset current threshold. At this time, the first preset condition is that the input current of the three-phase PFC circuit is less than the first preset current threshold and not less than the second preset current threshold.

[0081] Among them, the second preset current threshold is less than the first preset current threshold. The second preset current threshold can be set according to actual requirements and is not specifically limited herein.

[0082] In some embodiments, the second preset condition is that the input current of the three-phase PFC circuit is less than the second preset current threshold, and the duration for which the input current of the three-phase PFC circuit is less than the second preset current threshold is greater than the second preset duration. At this time, the first preset condition is that the input current of the three-phase PFC circuit is less than the first preset current threshold and not less than the second preset current threshold, and the duration for which the input current of the three-phase PFC circuit is less than the first preset current threshold and not less than the second preset current threshold is greater than the first preset duration.

[0083] The first preset duration and the second preset duration may be equal or may not be equal, without specific limitation. The second preset duration can be set according to actual requirements. For example, it can be 5 seconds, 10 seconds, etc.

[0084] In a possible implementation manner, after controlling two of the three phases of the three-phase PFC circuit to stop working and simultaneously controlling the remaining one phase of the three-phase PFC circuit to continue working, the control method of the three-phase PFC circuit further includes:

[0085] If the three-phase PFC circuit is a three-phase four-wire PFC circuit, and the operating parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit do not meet the second preset condition, and the operating parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit meet the first preset condition, then control any one of the two phases that have stopped working to resume working, or control both of the two phases that have stopped working (two of the three phases of the three-phase PFC circuit) to resume working, and simultaneously control the one phase that is working (the remaining one phase of the three-phase PFC circuit) to stop working;

[0086] If the three-phase PFC circuit is a three-phase four-wire PFC circuit, and the operating parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit do not meet the second preset condition, and the operating parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit do not meet the first preset condition, then control both of the two phases that have stopped working to resume working, that is, control all three phases to work.

[0087] In a possible implementation manner, after "controlling one of the three phases of the three-phase PFC circuit to stop working and simultaneously controlling the remaining two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit to continue working" in the above S102, the control method of the three-phase PFC circuit further includes:

[0088] If the operating parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit do not meet the first preset condition, and the operating parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit do not meet the second preset condition, then control the one phase that has stopped working of the three-phase PFC circuit to resume working, that is, control all three phases to work.

[0089] It should be understood that the sequence numbers of the steps in the above embodiments do not indicate the order of execution. The execution order of each process should be determined according to its function and internal logic, and should not constitute any limitation to the implementation process of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0090] The following is an apparatus embodiment of the present invention. For details not described in detail, reference may be made to the corresponding method embodiments above.

[0091] Figure 6 The structural schematic diagram of the control device of the three-phase PFC circuit provided by the embodiment of the present invention is shown. For the sake of convenience of description, only the parts related to the embodiment of the present invention are shown and are described in detail as follows:

[0092] As Figure 6 shown, the control device 100 of the three-phase PFC circuit includes: an acquisition module 101 and a first control module 102.

[0093] The acquisition module 101 is used to acquire the working parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit;

[0094] The first control module 102 is used to control one phase of the three-phase PFC circuit to stop working and at the same time control the remaining two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit to continue working if the working parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit meet the first preset condition;

[0095] Wherein, one phase of the three-phase PFC circuit is any one phase of the three-phase PFC circuit or one phase determined according to the first preset rotation order.

[0096] In a possible implementation manner, the first control module 102 is specifically used for:

[0097] If the three-phase PFC circuit is a three-phase four-wire PFC circuit, stop sending a driving signal to the switching tube corresponding to one phase of the three-phase PFC circuit, and at the same time continue to send a driving signal to the switching tubes corresponding to the remaining two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit;

[0098] If the three-phase PFC circuit is a three-phase three-wire PFC circuit, stop sending a driving signal to the switching tube corresponding to one phase of the three-phase PFC circuit, and at the same time adjust the duty cycle of the driving signals of the switching tubes corresponding to the remaining two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit to adjust the current phases of the remaining two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit, so that the remaining two phases of the three-phase PFC circuit work in the single-phase PFC mode.

[0099] In a possible implementation manner, the working parameters of the three-phase PFC circuit include the input current of the three-phase PFC circuit;

[0100] The first preset condition is that the input current of the three-phase PFC circuit is less than the first preset current threshold.

[0101] In a possible implementation, the first preset condition is that the input current of the three-phase PFC circuit is less than the first preset current threshold, and the duration for which the input current of the three-phase PFC circuit is less than the first preset current threshold is greater than the first preset duration.
