[0073] The second abc / dq conversion module is used for converting the three-phase output current of the inverter into current values in the dq coordinate system.

[0074] For example, the conversion formula is as follows: Wherein, i a , i b , i c are the three-phase output currents of the inverter, i d , i q are the values of the three-phase currents in the dq coordinate system, and θ1 is the included angle between the d axis and the phase reference axis.

[0078] An exemplary expression of the inverter modulation signal is: wherein m d is a d-axis modulation amount of the inverter modulation signal, m q is a q-axis modulation amount of the inverter modulation signal, k p_di is a value of a proportional controller of a d-axis current loop PI regulator, k i_di is a value of an integral controller of the d-axis current loop PI regulator, k p_qi is a value of a proportional controller of a q-axis current loop PI regulator, k i_qi is a value of an integral controller of the q-axis current loop PI regulator, i d_ref is a d-axis instruction value of the inverter current loop, i q_ref is a q-axis instruction value of the inverter current loop, i q_ref = 0, i d is a value of the inverter output three-phase current in the d-axis, i q is a value of the inverter output three-phase current in the q-axis.

[0079] The dq / abc conversion module is configured to convert the modulation amounts of the d-axis and the q-axis in the inverter modulation signal into modulation amounts of three-phase voltages, and maintain stability of a direct-current side voltage.

[0080] An exemplary expression of the modulation amounts of the three-phase voltages of the inverter modulation signal can be obtained by combining the calculation formula of the second control module and the inverter direct-current voltage stabilization current control block diagram shown in Figure 6 , and the expression of the modulation amounts of the three-phase voltages of the inverter modulation signal is: wherein m a , m b , and m c are modulation amounts of the inverter output voltages in an abc three-phase coordinate system, m d is the d-axis modulation amount of the inverter modulation signal, m q is the q-axis modulation amount of the inverter modulation signal, and θ1 is an included angle between the d-axis and a phase reference axis.

[0081] It can be seen from Figure 7 and Figure 8 that when the power grid fluctuates and the grid point voltage significantly increases, the output power of the photovoltaic inverter using the traditional linear active voltage control curve changes little, the support effect is poor, the voltage deviation is still large, the power quality decreases, and the normal operation of equipment in the power grid is affected.

[0082] From Figure 9 , Figure 10 ,Figure 11 and Figure 12 It can be seen that, through the control of the application, when the power grid fluctuates, the photovoltaic inverter calculates the power instruction value according to the segmented active power / voltage control curve, quickly changes the port output voltage through the linear approximation curve, realizes the power output tracking instruction, when the voltage amplitude is large, the photovoltaic output power drops more, and the grid point voltage amplitude fluctuates less, when the voltage amplitude is small, the photovoltaic inverter outputs the maximum power, which guarantees the power quality of the load voltage while improving the efficiency, improves the stability of the power grid operation and the economy of the photovoltaic operation.
