Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of power distribution network technology, and more specifically, to a commutation soft-switching system and evaluation method for mitigating current imbalance in power distribution networks. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, my country is accelerating the construction of a new power system based on new energy sources, vigorously developing new energy, and gradually phasing out traditional energy sources on the basis of safe and reliable replacement by new energy, thus accelerating the decarbonization of the power industry and promoting a clean energy transition. However, with the introduction of high-proportion clean energy units, such as wind power and hydropower, the randomness and volatility of distribution network operation have become more significant, and the power output imbalance between the three phases has also increased. At the same time, the distribution of single-phase loads at the terminal of the distribution network is often unbalanced, which exacerbates the current imbalance in the distribution network, leading to problems such as reduced output efficiency of distribution transformers and increased network line losses. Intelligent soft switching, as a new type of power electronic device, can actively control the transfer of power flow between different nodes. Compared with traditional tie lines, it has advantages such as real-time control, no switching action, and rapid response. However, current intelligent soft switching devices can only achieve power flow transfer between the same phase, and it is difficult to achieve current balance between different phases. The improvement effect on the current imbalance problem is limited, and there is a lack of an evaluation method for intelligent soft switching devices with commutation to address the current imbalance problem.
