Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of DC networking operation control, and relates to a SoC-based DC networking coordination control method for photovoltaic power propulsion ships. Background Art

[0002] With the development of global trade and shipping industry, fossil energy is gradually depleted, and the problem of ship pollution emission is becoming increasingly prominent. Distributed power generation technology for ships, which is mainly based on renewable energy power generation, has received widespread attention. Compared with the ship AC networking mode, the ship DC networking has low cost and no frequency, phase and other problems. It is more suitable for the access of renewable energy and has a broad development prospect. Due to cost, safety and technical considerations, multiple battery energy storage units (BESUs) are usually equipped on electric propulsion ships. BESUs are connected to the DC bus in parallel through converters to provide power for the entire ship. The converter controls the output voltage and suppresses the circulation between BESUs. For example, the recently launched pure electric ships such as "Yara Birkeland" and "Junlv" all use this technology. However, due to differences in production process, storage conditions and use, each BESU will have inconsistent SoC problems. When the SoC is seriously unbalanced, some BESUs will exit operation prematurely, accelerate the discharge speed of the remaining BESUs, and affect the life of the energy storage system and the stability of the ship DC networking. Therefore, the power distribution and SoC balance between BESUs have been widely studied.

[0003] Regarding the coordinated control of solar energy and batteries, the literature [1-3] A coordinated control strategy for a DC microgrid system based on bus voltage stratification is proposed to construct a DC microgrid system structure based on solar power generation. However, when the photovoltaic power fluctuates violently, it will cause large bus voltage fluctuations, seriously affecting the power quality and being unfavorable to the stable operation of the DC microgrid. Summary of the invention

[0004] The above technical problems existing in the prior art are solved by a SoC-based DC networking coordinated control method for photovoltaic power storage propulsion ships, comprising:

[0005] By comparing the photovoltaic power of the photovoltaic unit with the power of the load and the sum of the input and output powers of the battery unit, the working mode of the DC network of the photovoltaic power storage propulsion ship is determined, so that when the photovoltaic power output of the photovoltaic unit is different, the battery unit is controlled to charge or discharge according to the load demand.

[0009] Working mode 2: At this time, the state of charge SoC of the battery > 30%, the photovoltaic output power P L -P B1 < P V < P L -0.5P B1 , the photovoltaic unit operates in the MPPT mode, and the battery operates in the discharge mode;

[0010] Working mode 3: When the state of charge of the battery 20% < SoC < 90%, the photovoltaic output power P L < P V < P L +P B2 , the photovoltaic unit operates in the MPPT mode, and the BESUs are charged at a speed less than the maximum charging current I in ;

[0012] Working mode 5: When the state of charge of the battery SoC > 90%, the photovoltaic output power P Lref < P V , at this time, the photovoltaic unit operates in constant voltage mode 2, the photovoltaic unit is responsible for the power consumption of the rated load, and the BESUs operate in the trickle state.

[0013] Further: By comparing the photovoltaic power of the photovoltaic unit with the sum of the power of the load and the input and output power of the battery, the warning state of the DC network of the photovoltaic-storage electric propulsion ship can also be determined, which specifically includes:

[0014] Warning mode 1: When the state of charge of the battery SoC > 20%, P V<P L -P B1 or P L -P B1 <P V <P L -0.5P B1 , when 20% < SoC < 30%, it indicates that the photovoltaic and battery are insufficient to provide the power consumed by the load. Then, unnecessary loads are cut off or some photovoltaic units are turned off to switch the DC network of the electric propulsion ship with energy storage to the normal working mode;

[0015] Early warning mode 2: If 85% < SoC < 90%, P Lref +P B2 <P V , at this time, if the BESUs are charging at the maximum power, increase the load or turn off some photovoltaic units to switch to the stable working mode.

[0062] A coordinated control method for DC networking of a photovoltaic power storage propulsion ship based on SoC, comprising:

[0063] The relationship between the photovoltaic power of the photovoltaic unit, the power of the load and the sum of the input and output powers of the battery unit determines the working mode of the DC networking of the photovoltaic power storage propulsion ship, so that when the photovoltaic power output of the photovoltaic unit is different, the battery unit is controlled to charge or discharge according to the load demand.

[0064] By comparing the photovoltaic power of the photovoltaic unit with the power of the load and the sum of the input and output power of the battery, the warning state of the DC networking of the electric storage propulsion ship can also be determined.

[0065] Figure 1 It is the overall control block diagram of the system adopted by the present invention.

[0066] BESUs and PV units are connected in parallel on the busbar via DC / DC converters.

[0067] BESUs adopts a hierarchical control structure, which is divided into primary control layer and secondary control layer.

[0068] The photovoltaic unit adopts MPPT and CVC control mode (constant voltage mode) to meet the power demand of the photovoltaic power storage propulsion ship to the maximum extent and ensure the safe operation of the ship. Based on the photovoltaic unit power output and the SoC of BESUs, the photovoltaic power storage propulsion ship DC microgrid can be divided into five working modes and two warning states.

[0069] Figure 2 The present invention adopts the division of the coordinated control working mode of the photovoltaic energy storage system; according to the photovoltaic output power and the SoC of the BESUs, combined with the maximum discharge power P B1 and the maximum charging power P B2 , five modes of coordinated control of the output power are proposed as follows:

[0070] The battery discharge mode is as follows:

[0071] Working mode 1: When the state of charge SoC of the battery is less than 20%, and the photovoltaic output power P V < P L , the photovoltaic unit operates in the MPPT mode, but the output power of the photovoltaic unit and the maximum discharge power of the BESUs are not sufficient to support the power consumed by the marine load, and the ship will stop running.

[0072] Working mode 2: When the state of charge SoC of the battery is greater than 30%, and the photovoltaic output power P L -P B1 < P V < P L -0.5P B1 , the photovoltaic unit operates in the MPPT mode, and the battery operates in the discharge mode.

[0073] The battery charging mode is as follows:

[0074] Working mode 3: At this time, 20% < SoC < 90%, and the photovoltaic output power P L < P V < P L +P B2 , the photovoltaic unit operates in the MPPT mode, and the BESUs are charged at a speed less than the maximum charging current.

[0075] Working mode 4: At this time, 20% < SoC < 85%, and the photovoltaic output power P Lref +P B2 < P V , P Lref is the rated load power, the photovoltaic unit will operate in the constant voltage mode 1, and the BESUs are charged with the maximum charging current I in ;

[0076] Working mode 5: At this time, SoC > 90%, and the photovoltaic output power P Lref < P V , at this time, the photovoltaic unit operates in the constant voltage mode 2, the photovoltaic unit is responsible for the power consumption of the rated load, and the BESUs operate in the trickle state.

[0077] The two warning modes are as follows, as shown below:

[0078] Warning Mode 1: If at this time SoC > 20% and P V <P L -P B1 or P L -P B1 <P V <P L -0.5P B1 , when 20% < SoC < 30%, it indicates that the photovoltaic and battery are not sufficient to provide the power consumed by the load, and unnecessary loads need to be cut off or some photovoltaic units need to be turned off to switch the system to the normal working mode, where P V (t) is the power generation power of the photovoltaic unit; P B (t) is the charge and discharge power of the battery; P an (t) is the charging power of the shore power; P L (t) is the power consumed by the load; P a (t) is the power consumed by the regulating resistor R a to coordinate the power balance between the photovoltaic unit and the BESUs; t is the unit time. P Lref is the rated load power;

[0079] Warning Mode 2: If 85% < SoC < 90% and P Lref +P B2 <P V , at this time, if the BESUs are charging at the maximum power, loads need to be increased or some photovoltaic units need to be turned off to switch to the stable working mode.

[0080] Figure 3 is the flowchart of the conductance increment method. When the photovoltaic unit works in the MPPT mode, the relative position between the current power point and the maximum power point is determined by setting the critical value flag. When the working point is far from the maximum power point, a large step size is used to approach the maximum power point; when the working point is close to the maximum power point, a small step size is used instead. At the maximum power point, the voltage remains unchanged.

[0081] When the photovoltaic unit works in the constant voltage mode, the output voltage of the photovoltaic unit is U pv1 and U pv2 , corresponding to different working modes respectively. U pv1 and U pv2 take the following values:

[0082]

[0083]

[0084] where: I in is the maximum charging current, R a is the regulating resistor, is the bus voltage rating, It is the power required by the important equipment to maintain the operation of the ship. Formula (1) and formula (2) respectively represent the expressions of constant pressure mode 1 and constant pressure mode 2;

[0085] Furthermore, the battery unit includes n batteries and n battery energy controllers; the batteries and battery energy controllers are connected; the working process of the battery energy controller is as follows:

[0086] Obtain the output current of n batteries, and obtain the state of charge of each battery based on the ampere-hour integration method;

[0087] Combined with droop control, the average value of all batteries is used to generate the droop coefficient through the state of charge current sharing algorithm;

[0088] The product of the droop coefficient and the current at the output of the DC / DC converter is transmitted to the double closed-loop control layer;

[0089] The difference between the collected bus voltage on both sides of the load and the ideal voltage value is calculated to obtain the difference I used to increase the voltage drop compensation to maintain the bus voltage stability, and the obtained difference I is transmitted to the dual closed-loop control layer;

[0090] By using the obtained droop coefficient and the voltage and current at the output end of the DC / DC converter, a power compensation value is obtained through a power compensation algorithm to eliminate the current sharing error caused by the line impedance, and the value is transmitted to the dual closed-loop control layer;

[0091] The ideal voltage of the bus output voltage and the difference I and the power compensation value are summed, and the sum is subtracted from the droop drop unit and the bus voltage to obtain the difference II;

[0092] The difference II is subjected to voltage and current control to obtain a control signal I;

[0093] The control signal I is modulated by pulse width modulation technology to achieve a stable output voltage and a balanced charge state of multiple batteries to generate a control signal II.

[0094] The photovoltaic unit works in MPPT mode or constant voltage mode

[0095] The working process of the MPPT mode is as follows: the voltage and current on both sides of the photovoltaic unit output are collected and the obtained power is sent to the MPPT controller, the obtained value voltage and current are controlled to obtain a control signal III, and the control signal III is modulated by pulse width modulation technology to obtain a control signal IV.

[0096] The working process of the constant voltage mode is as follows: the collected voltage on both sides of the photovoltaic unit output is subtracted from the voltage setting value, and the difference III is subjected to voltage and current control to obtain a control signal III, and the control signal III is modulated by pulse width modulation technology to obtain a control signal IV.

[0097] The state of charge of each battery is obtained by the ampere-hour integration method as follows:

[0098]

[0099] Among them: SoC i (0) and SoC i (t) is the initial SoC value of the i-th energy storage unit and the SoC value at time t, C Ni is the rated capacity of the ith battery, η i is the charging and discharging efficiency of the i-th battery, which is taken as 1 in this application, and i dci is the output current of the converter.

[0100] Two identical DC / DC converters (Converter I and Converter II) are analyzed. The output current value ratio of the DC / DC converter under traditional droop control is:

[0101]

[0102] Where: i dc1 and i dc2 is the ideal output current of converter I and converter II, R1 and R2 are the line impedances of ESUI and ESUII, R droop1 and R droop2 is the droop coefficient of ESUI and ESUII.

[0103] The output voltage of the battery is the same. If the loss of the converter is ignored, the following equation can be obtained:

[0104] P in-i =P out-i =V dci i dci (5)

[0105] Where: P in-i and P out-i is the input and output power of the ith converter, V dci is the output voltage of the ith converter. Combining equations (1) and (3), the ampere-hour integration method can be written as:

[0106]

[0107]

[0108] Combining (2) and (4), we can get formula (5), which shows that SoC balance is related to the converter line impedance and droop coefficient as well as the rated capacity of the battery. Combining SoC with the droop coefficient, an adaptive droop control method based on SoC is proposed to achieve the current balance target. The improved droop coefficient is shown as follows: When the battery is discharged, the droop coefficient R droopi for:

[0109]

[0110] When the battery is charging:

[0111]

[0112]

[0113] In order to reduce bus voltage deviation and line impedance deviation, a secondary bus voltage compensation control is used, including power compensation and voltage compensation control;

[0114] Line impedance compensation It is superimposed on the reference output voltage of each converter to eliminate the current sharing error caused by line impedance. The specific method is as follows:

[0115]

[0116] in: For line impedance compensation, Ideal unit output voltage, V i * is the output voltage of the i-th unit, k p and k i is the PI value of the PI controller I, V dci is the ideal output voltage of the converter, V dci is the actual output voltage of the converter, ΔV i is the deviation between the expected value and the output voltage, K' p and K′ i is the PI value of PI controller II.

[0117]

[0118]

[0119]

[0120] in: is the unit average output voltage, is the nth unit output voltage, I rate-i is the virtual unit output current, ΔV maxis the maximum allowable voltage deviation, P out-i is the output power of the i-th converter. When (12) is satisfied, the influence of different line resistances on SoC balance can be offset, thereby achieving the purpose of accurate power distribution.

[0121] In summary, we can derive a new droop formula:

[0122]

[0123] It effectively solves the problem of droop control and inconsistent line resistance affecting SoC balance, and can achieve accurate current sharing of bus voltage recovery and load current.

[0124] The virtual control unit corresponding to the battery energy controller includes:

[0125] Photovoltaic unit output module: including the maximum power MPPT mode for tracking photovoltaics and the constant voltage mode for tracking the ideal voltage;

[0126] State of charge acquisition module: used to acquire the output current of multiple batteries and obtain the state of charge of each battery based on the ampere-hour integration method;

[0127] Average value acquisition module: used to utilize the communication between the local state of charge of the battery and the state of charge of its directly adjacent batteries, and adopt an improved consistency algorithm to calculate and obtain the average value of all batteries;

[0128] Droop coefficient generation module: Combined with droop control, the average value of all batteries is used to generate the droop coefficient through the state of charge current sharing algorithm;

[0129] Droop drop unit module: used to calculate the product of the droop coefficient and the current at the output end of the DC / DC converter, and transmit the obtained product value to the dual closed-loop control layer;
