Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of superconducting microgrids, and particularly relates to a composite superconducting microgrid system applied to offshore wind power and a working method. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the process of rapid global industrialization today, the contradiction between energy demand and environmental pollution has become a problem that needs to be solved urgently. Renewable energy is the key to solving the energy crisis and realizing sustainable development. Wind power has become the third largest renewable energy generation method after hydropower due to its advantages such as easy development and low construction cost. Offshore wind power has advantages such as abundant resources, high power utilization rate, and proximity to power load centers for easy power consumption, and is becoming a global focus.

[0003] The intermittent and random nature of wind power generation results in poor power quality. Because energy storage has the characteristics of bidirectional power and flexible adjustment capability, configuring energy storage is a solution to the system instability and other problems caused by wind power generation. Energy storage technology can be divided into energy storage (pumped storage, fuel cells, etc.) and power storage (superconducting energy storage, supercapacitor energy storage, etc.). Energy storage systems have long discharge time, large capacity density, but relatively slow power response speed and are not suitable for frequent and fast charging and discharging. Power storage has the advantages of fast response speed and large power density. Therefore, combining the two types of energy storage can reduce costs and provide good power quality.

[0004] Among many energy storage technologies, hydrogen energy storage uses excess power generated by wind power to electrolyze water to produce hydrogen, and stores hydrogen. When needed, hydrogen is used to generate electricity through fuel cells or gas turbines. Hydrogen energy generation has the advantages of long discharge time and no pollution, and can be used to smooth wind power fluctuations. It can also be used as an effective means of energy consumption, significantly reducing carbon emissions. Superconducting energy storage technology uses the zero-resistance current-carrying characteristics of superconducting materials below the critical temperature to construct a magnet coil to store electromagnetic energy. Through a current transformer, power exchange with the grid is achieved, and the technology has the advantages of fast response and independent four-quadrant operation.

[0005] At present, most offshore wind farms adopt high-voltage alternating current grid connection mode, but need to install reactive power compensation device to solve the problem of alternating current cable capacitance charging current, so under the rapid development of high-power power electronic devices, flexible direct current transmission is widely recognized due to its advantages of less harmonic content, no commutation failure and independent power regulation. The offshore wind power grid connection structure based on flexible direct current transmission includes offshore wind turbine, step-up transformer, alternating current submarine cable, offshore converter station, direct current submarine cable, onshore converter station and main power grid. The traditional doubly-fed induction generator and permanent magnet synchronous generator are difficult to meet the problem of large-scale offshore wind turbine capacity, when the high-temperature superconducting generator is used, the wind turbine generator is direct-driven, which increases the reliability and reduces the maintenance cost, and due to the light weight and small size, the design requirements of offshore wind turbine support structure and the like are reduced, and the construction cost of the wind farm is reduced. The carrying capacity of the traditional submarine cable is insufficient and a large amount of electric energy is lost, so the superconducting cable is used to replace the traditional submarine transmission line to meet the large-capacity load center. If the step-up transformer also uses a superconducting transformer, the weight of the transformer can be effectively reduced, the noise is reduced, the service life of the transformer is also prolonged in the low-temperature environment, the construction and maintenance costs are reduced, and the influence on the surrounding marine organisms is small.

[0006] Since all superconducting devices need to work in a low-temperature environment, the temperature of liquid hydrogen is about 20K and is obtained by electrolysis of water to produce hydrogen, so the superconducting cable can be installed in the liquid hydrogen transmission pipeline, and the magnet in the superconducting transformer and the superconducting energy storage device is immersed in the Dewar containing liquid hydrogen. However, during the operation of the system, the superconducting transformer and the superconducting energy storage device will inevitably have thermal disturbance and certain heat leakage, and the liquid hydrogen pipeline end of the superconducting submarine cable connected in the room temperature environment will also have heat loss. SUMMARY

[0007] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of the present application is to provide a composite superconducting microgrid system and working method applied to offshore wind power, which combines hydrogen energy storage and superconducting energy storage to better realize the regulation of grid voltage, frequency, active and reactive power, and at the same time, combines various superconducting devices to increase transmission capacity and reduce loss, and further reduces cost.

The offshore converter station converts the AC power into DC power and transmits the DC power to a DC bus of an onshore converter station through a liquid hydrogen-superconducting hybrid submarine DC cable. The onshore converter station inverts the DC power into AC power and connects the AC power to a main power grid and a water electrolysis hydrogen production device, thereby realizing centralized grid connection of offshore wind turbine based on flexible DC power transmission.

[0015] Further, the hydrogen of the fuel cell is derived from hydrogen gas stored in a gas tank after water electrolysis hydrogen production.

Not only is the composite superconducting system placed in a low-temperature environment of liquid hydrogen, but also the raw material for the fuel cell is supplemented.

[0018] Preferably, the superconducting energy storage device and the fuel cell control their respective choppers to charge or discharge according to the electrical characteristics of the DC bus, thereby realizing power fluctuation suppression of offshore wind power generation.

[0019] Preferably, the liquid tank is connected to the liquid hydrogen transmission pipeline in the liquid hydrogen-superconducting hybrid submarine AC / DC cable through a liquid hydrogen pump, and finally connected to the superconducting booster transformer, and the controller on the liquid hydrogen relay booster station determines whether the liquid hydrogen pump is needed to supplement the insufficient liquid hydrogen in the pipeline by monitoring the flow rate of the liquid hydrogen in the liquid hydrogen transmission pipeline, thereby avoiding the loss of superconductivity of the liquid hydrogen-superconducting hybrid submarine AC / DC cable due to insufficient liquid hydrogen.

[0020] Preferably, the liquid hydrogen in the liquid tank enters the Dewar through the liquid inlet pipe to cool the superconducting energy storage device, and the heat generated by the superconducting energy storage magnet in the superconducting energy storage device during operation vaporizes the liquid hydrogen in the Dewar to produce hydrogen gas, which enters the gas tank through the exhaust pipe.

[0021] Preferably, the liquid level in the annular Dewar of the superconducting booster transformer changes when the transformer is working, and when the liquid level drops to a certain extent, the liquid hydrogen pump of the refrigerator sends liquid hydrogen into the Dewar through the liquid inlet pipe of the transformer, and the hydrogen gas after vaporization enters the liquid hydrogen pump through the exhaust pipe of the transformer and becomes liquid hydrogen after passing through the heat exchanger to continue to circulate and use, thereby improving the utilization rate of hydrogen energy.

[0022] Preferably, the liquid level in the Dewar of the superconducting energy storage device changes during operation of the superconducting energy storage device, and the intelligent control switch on the liquid inlet pipe controls the opening and closing of the liquid inlet pipe according to the signal sensed by the liquid level sensor in the Dewar, and the intelligent control switch on the exhaust pipe controls the opening and closing of the exhaust pipe according to the gas pressure sensed by the pressure sensor in the Dewar, so that the liquid surface in the Dewar is always above the superconducting energy storage magnet, thereby providing a low-temperature environment for the superconducting energy storage device by using the gas-liquid conversion of hydrogen, and realizing the mixed use of liquid hydrogen and superconducting energy storage.

In the drawings, the same reference signs represent the same or similar functional devices or equipment throughout. The described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, and the described content and directional words are not limited to the embodiments, but are detailed explanations of the present application rather than limitations.

[0044] In one broad embodiment of the present application, a composite superconducting microgrid system for smoothing offshore wind power fluctuations is shown in FIG. 1. Figure 1 characterized in that it comprises an offshore superconducting generator set 1, a superconducting booster transformer 2, a liquid hydrogen-superconducting hybrid submarine AC cable 3, an offshore converter station 4, a liquid hydrogen relay booster station 5, a liquid hydrogen-superconducting hybrid submarine DC cable 6, an onshore converter station 7, a main power grid 8, a superconducting energy storage device 9, a fuel cell 10, water electrolysis hydrogen production equipment 11 and hydrogen liquefaction equipment 13. The offshore superconducting generator set 1, the superconducting booster transformer 2, the liquid hydrogen-superconducting hybrid submarine AC and DC cables 3, 6 and the superconducting energy storage device 9 constitute a composite superconducting system.

[0045] The AC power output by the offshore superconducting wind turbine 1 is boosted by the superconducting booster transformer 2 and gathered on the AC bus 18, transmitted to the offshore converter station 4 through the liquid hydrogen-superconducting hybrid submarine AC cable 3, converted into DC power by the offshore converter station 4 and transmitted to the DC bus 17 of the onshore converter station 7 through the liquid hydrogen-superconducting hybrid submarine DC cable 6, and then inverted into AC power by the onshore converter station 7 and connected to the main power grid 8 and the water electrolysis hydrogen production equipment 11, realizing offshore wind power grid connection based on flexible DC power transmission; the superconducting energy storage device 9 and the fuel cell 10 control the respective DC choppers 15, 16 to charge and discharge according to the electrical characteristics on the DC bus 17, thereby stabilizing the power fluctuation of the offshore wind power generation device.

[0047] The structure of the superconducting booster transformer 2 is shown in Fig. 2. Figure 2 The superconducting booster transformer 2 is composed of a current lead 208, a spiral high-temperature superconducting winding 209, a ring-shaped Dewar 210 which only cools the transformer winding, a three-phase laminated iron core 211, and a refrigerator 212 which uses liquid hydrogen to cool the superconducting winding. The liquid level of the liquid hydrogen in the ring-shaped Dewar 210 changes during the operation of the transformer. When the liquid level drops to a certain extent, the liquid hydrogen pump 204 of the refrigerator will send liquid hydrogen into the Dewar through the liquid inlet pipe 207, and the hydrogen gas after gasification will enter the heat exchanger 205 through the exhaust pipe 206 and then become liquid hydrogen for continuous circulation. When the liquid hydrogen in the Dewar 203 of the transformer refrigerator drops to the lowest set value, the liquid outlet valve 202 is opened to supplement the liquid hydrogen in the Dewar. When the liquid hydrogen in the liquid tank 201 of the transformer drops to the lowest set value, the liquid inlet valve on the liquid tank is opened and the liquid hydrogen pump on the liquid hydrogen relay booster station is used to supplement the liquid hydrogen.

[0051] The structure of the superconducting energy storage device is as shown in the accompanying Figure 5 The liquid hydrogen in the liquid tank 14 enters the Dewar 901 through the liquid inlet pipe 19 to cool the superconducting energy storage device so that the superconducting energy storage magnet 902 is in a superconducting state, but the heat generated by the superconducting energy storage magnet 902 during operation will vaporize the liquid hydrogen in the Dewar to produce hydrogen gas, which enters the gas tank through the exhaust pipe 20, so the liquid level and pressure in the Dewar will also change, the intelligent control switch 903 on the liquid inlet pipe 19 controls the opening and closing of the liquid inlet pipe according to the signal sensed by the liquid level sensor in the Dewar, and the intelligent control switch 904 on the exhaust pipe 20 controls the opening and closing of the exhaust pipe according to the gas pressure sensed by the pressure sensor in the Dewar, so that the liquid level in the Dewar 901 always covers the superconducting energy storage magnet 902.

[0052] The application also provides a specific step of the composite superconducting microgrid system for smoothing offshore wind power fluctuation as described above, which comprises:

[0053] S1, power generation, the offshore superconducting generator set 1 converts wind energy into electrical energy, the electrical energy is boosted by the superconducting booster transformer 2 and transmitted to the offshore converter station 4 by the liquid hydrogen-superconducting hybrid submarine AC cable 3, realizing the conversion of offshore wind energy and electrical energy;

[0057] In S2, due to the long transmission distance of the liquid hydrogen-superconducting hybrid submarine DC cable 6, the liquid hydrogen pump 21 may not be able to completely deliver the liquid hydrogen to the superconducting booster transformer 2, so the liquid hydrogen relay booster station 5 is added, when the flow rate of the liquid hydrogen in the liquid hydrogen transmission pipeline is lower than the lower threshold, the liquid hydrogen pump on the liquid hydrogen relay booster station 5 is started to supplement the insufficient liquid hydrogen in the pipeline;

[0059] In S4, when the liquid level of liquid hydrogen in Dewar 901 is lower than the minimum threshold, the signal sensed by the liquid level sensor will open the intelligent control switch 903 on the liquid inlet pipe 19 to let liquid hydrogen into the superconducting energy storage device 9. Liquid hydrogen is easily vaporized by the heat generated when the superconducting energy storage device is running. When the hydrogen pressure in Dewar 901 is higher than the maximum threshold, the intelligent control switch 904 on the exhaust pipe 20 controls the exhaust pipe according to the gas pressure sensed by the pressure sensor in Dewar 901 to open the on-off switch to let hydrogen into the gas tank.
