Abstract

This invention discloses a quasi-single-stage three-phase pulse power supply and its control method. The quasi-single-stage three-phase pulse power supply includes a three-phase T-type three-level rectifier and a synchronous rectifier converter. By injecting a zero-sequence component into the three-phase modulation wave, the power transferred from the T-type three-level rectifier to the low-voltage port is adjusted. Part of the energy is directly transferred to the load by the T-type three-level rectifier, achieving maximum power single-stage transmission and improving energy transmission efficiency. Furthermore, the wide-range fluctuation of the capacitors at the high-voltage and low-voltage output terminals of the T-type three-level rectifier compensates for the instantaneous power difference between input and output, suppressing the impact of pulse power on the AC power grid. Simultaneously, the synchronous rectifier converter compensates for voltage fluctuations at the low-voltage output terminal capacitor, providing a stable voltage to the pulse load. This invention achieves input-output power decoupling, suppresses the impact of pulse loads on the AC power grid, and improves energy transmission efficiency by maximizing power single-stage transmission, making it suitable for applications with pulse loads.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a quasi-single-stage three-phase pulse power supply and its control method, belonging to the field of power electronic converters, particularly the field of AC-DC power conversion technology. Background Technology

[0002] Pulsed power supplies have a wide range of applications, including materials processing, medical and health care, radar, and high-energy physics research. However, the periodicity, abrupt changes, and high peak-to-average power ratio of pulsed power pose challenges to the stable operation of power grids.

[0003] Traditional pulse power supplies employ passive power decoupling, using passive components such as supercapacitors as instantaneous power support. By increasing the capacitance, they maintain voltage stability, which increases the size and weight of the power supply and reduces power density.

[0004] Three-phase AC / DC power supply systems can be classified into single-stage and multi-stage types based on the number of power conversion stages. Single-stage architectures have relatively fewer power devices and lower converter costs. Due to the single-stage power conversion, efficiency is higher. However, sudden additions and removals of pulsed power loads cause a series of problems in three-phase uncontrolled rectified AC / DC power supply systems, including harmonic pollution, frequency fluctuations, and voltage flicker, affecting the long-term stability of the power supply system. Patent (Publication No.: CN108377102A) proposes a two-stage architecture consisting of a non-isolated PFC converter, a controlled current source, and an isolated DC / DC converter. The controlled current source, composed of a non-isolated bidirectional converter, acts as an energy storage unit. When there is no pulse, energy is stored in the bidirectional converter capacitor; when a pulse occurs, the bidirectional converter discharges to compensate for the energy. This structure controls the input current based on the power conservation principle, achieving decoupling of the pulse current and reducing the PFC bus capacitance. However, since all energy undergoes two stages of conversion, energy transfer efficiency is reduced. Furthermore, the bidirectional converter needs to be designed according to the pulse peak value. Summary of the Invention
