[0002] To address global climate change, the penetration rate of new energy power generation such as wind power and photovoltaics is increasing daily, and photovoltaic power generation is developing towards large-scale and grid-connected centralization. Dual active DC / DC converters (DABs) have enormous application potential in large-scale photovoltaic power generation due to their advantages such as bidirectional power flow, electrical isolation, and high operating efficiency. Improving the power density and reducing the cost of DABs, and optimizing their operating efficiency through soft switching are key. Traditional single-phase-shift control (SPS) is prone to soft-switching failure when there is voltage mismatch across the DAB, significantly increasing device switching losses, reducing conversion efficiency, and increasing the cost of the cooling system. While dual-phase-shift control (DPS) can extend the soft-switching operating range, it increases the complexity of the control algorithm. Summary of the Invention

[0031] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0032] Example 1

[0033] With the increase in DC voltage of photovoltaic modules, photovoltaic converter units are increasingly adopting three-level topology. The three-level half-bridge can naturally output a voltage square wave with an adjustable duty cycle. The DAB with a three-level half-bridge in the front stage and an H-bridge in the back stage also has dual control degrees of freedom, which can optimize the operation of the DAB. Figure 1 The DAB circuit structure for photovoltaic applications uses an active neutral-point clamped three-level circuit (ANPC) on the primary side and an H-bridge circuit on the secondary side. The two sides are connected by a high-frequency transformer. The primary side is connected to the photovoltaic panel, and the secondary side is connected to the DC unit of the grid-connected device. L1 represents the commutation inductance, which includes the equivalent leakage inductance of the high-frequency transformer and the sum of the auxiliary inductance. U1 and U2 represent the ANPC and H-bridge square wave voltages on the photovoltaic side of the transformer, respectively.

[0034] Figure 2 The operating voltage and current waveforms of the DAB converter in this embodiment of the invention are shown below. Figure 2 It can be seen that controlling the duty cycle and shift ratio can adjust the average value of the inductor current, thereby controlling the DAB transmission power.

[0035] Figure 3For different voltage matching condition coefficients k, the DAB operates in the soft-switching power region, with U1 as the reference and U2 represented by k. The power is expressed as the maximum power P. n Using this as a reference, the power boundary values ​​for different k are obtained as follows:

[0036]

[0037] In the formula P min This represents the soft-switching power boundary value when k < 1. Below this value, soft switching will fail. edg This represents the power switching boundary between the two soft-switching modes when k>1. Considering a maximum photovoltaic voltage of 1500V and an output voltage of 1000V, photovoltaic systems can generally operate in a soft-switching state.

[0038] To achieve soft-switching operation across the entire photovoltaic operating range, this invention optimizes the duty cycle of the ANPC half-bridge and the phase shift angle of the voltage waveforms on both sides, enabling the DAB to achieve high-efficiency operation. The soft-switching domain optimization control method for the DAB converter provided in this invention includes, for example... Figure 4 As shown, it includes:

[0039] Step S11: Based on the photovoltaic voltage reference value, the real-time acquisition of the voltage divider capacitor voltage on the primary side of the DAB converter and the output voltage on the secondary side, calculate the boundary value of the soft-switching region control quantity, the zero-voltage duty cycle and the shift ratio.

[0040] Optionally, the DAB converter consists of an ANPC converter, a high-frequency transformer, and an H-bridge converter. The ANPC converter and the H-bridge converter are connected through the high-frequency transformer. The process of calculating the boundary values ​​of the control quantity in the soft-switching region includes:

[0041] (1) Collect the voltage of the primary side voltage divider capacitor and the secondary side output voltage of the DAB converter.

[0042] (2) Calculate the voltage matching coefficients on both sides of DAB based on the voltage of the voltage divider capacitor, the output voltage on the secondary side and the turns ratio of the high-frequency transformer.

[0043] Specifically, the voltage U of the voltage divider capacitor on the primary side of the DAB is collected. c1 and U c2 Output voltage U dc2 Calculated photovoltaic voltage U pv The sum of the voltage divider capacitors and the voltage matching coefficient k across DAB are expressed as follows:

[0044]

[0045] In the formula, n represents the turns ratio of the secondary side to the primary side of the high-frequency transformer.

[0046] (3) Based on the dead time of the internal devices of the DAB converter, the switching frequency and the voltage matching coefficient on both sides of the DAB, calculate the boundary values ​​of the control quantity in the soft switching region. The boundary values ​​of the control quantity in the soft switching region include: the upper boundary value of the shift ratio, the upper boundary value of the duty cycle and the lower boundary value of the duty cycle.

[0047] Specifically, the boundary values ​​of the control quantity in the soft-switching region are calculated based on the voltage matching coefficient k, and the dual control quantity is defined as follows:

[0048]

[0049] In the formula, D α D β These are the zero-voltage duty cycle and the shift ratio, respectively.

[0050] The boundary expression for the control quantity is:

[0051]

[0052] In the formula, t d f represents the device dead time. s D represents the switching frequency. αmin D is the lower boundary value of the duty cycle. αedg D is the upper boundary value of the duty cycle. βedg The shift is compared to the upper boundary value.

[0053] Optionally, the process of calculating the zero-voltage duty cycle and the shift phase includes:

[0054] (1) Collect the voltage of the two voltage divider capacitors on the primary side of the DAB converter and the output voltage on the secondary side.

[0055] (2) Calculate the photovoltaic voltage based on the voltage of the two voltage divider capacitors on the primary side of the DAB converter and the output voltage on the secondary side.

[0056] (3) By proportionally integrating the difference between the photovoltaic voltage reference value and the photovoltaic voltage, the zero voltage duty cycle D is obtained. α1 By inverting the difference between the photovoltaic reference value and the photovoltaic voltage and then performing proportional integration, the shift ratio D is obtained. β1 .

[0057] Specifically, Figure 5 This is a block diagram of the DAB optimized control strategy of the present invention, with the photovoltaic voltage reference value U. pvref With the actual value of photovoltaic voltage U pv The difference is used to obtain the error ΔU pv The input PI controller generates the control input, where PI controller I generates a zero-voltage duty cycle D. α1 The PI controller II generates a reverse shift compared to -D β1 .

[0058] Step S12: Based on the boundary values ​​of the soft-switching region control quantity, the zero-voltage duty cycle, and the shift ratio, and combined with the hysteresis control method, determine the duty cycle command and shift ratio command of the DAB converter.

[0059] Specifically, in this embodiment of the invention, to avoid displacement compared to D β1 At the upper boundary D of the shift ratio βedg When there are fluctuations in the vicinity, the calculated duty cycle command and shift ratio command of the DAB converter change frequently. Hysteresis is used to avoid the above situation.

[0060] Optionally, the process of determining the duty cycle command and shift ratio command of the DAB converter based on the boundary value of the soft-switching region control quantity, the zero-voltage duty cycle and the shift ratio, combined with the hysteresis control method, includes: (1) using the boundary value of the soft-switching region control quantity to divide the DAB converter into two operating modes corresponding to different operating powers; (2) selecting the corresponding operating mode based on the shift ratio, the boundary minimum of the shift ratio, the boundary value of the soft-switching region control quantity, and the hysteresis control parameters, so as to determine the duty cycle command and shift ratio command of the DAB converter.

[0061] Optionally, selecting the corresponding operating mode to determine the duty cycle command and shift ratio command of the DAB converter includes:

[0062] (1) Based on the minimum value added to the boundary of the shift ratio, determine whether the shift ratio is within the preset range of the upper boundary value of the shift ratio.

[0063] Specifically, by using zero voltage shift ratio D β1 The boundary of the shift ratio is supplemented with a minimum value Δ and the hysteresis width to determine the zero-voltage shift ratio D. β1 Is it at the boundary value D of the shift ratio? βdeg Nearby, where two hysteresis loops are set, the process of calculating the hysteresis control parameters includes:

[0064] ①The sum of the minimum value of the upper boundary value of the shift phase and the boundary value of the zero voltage shift phase is taken as the first parameter of the upper hysteresis; the sum of the first parameter of the upper hysteresis and the hysteresis width is taken as the second parameter of the upper hysteresis.

[0065] ②The difference between the minimum value of the upper boundary value of the shift phase and the boundary value of the zero voltage shift phase is taken as the first parameter of the lower hysteresis; the difference between the first parameter of the lower hysteresis and the hysteresis width is taken as the second parameter of the lower hysteresis.

[0066] Specifically, if the hysteresis width is set to h, then D β1 The expressions for the upper and lower hysteresis loops when crossing the boundary are:

[0067]

[0068] In the formula, Δ is to ensure Dβ It can operate at a minimum of its boundary values, where h′1 is the first parameter of the lower hysteresis loop, h1 is the second parameter of the lower hysteresis loop, h′2 is the first parameter of the upper hysteresis loop, and h2 is the second parameter of the upper hysteresis loop.

[0069] (2) When the shift ratio is not within the preset range of the upper boundary value of the shift ratio, compare the size of the shift ratio with the upper boundary value of the shift ratio, and determine the duty cycle command and shift ratio command of the DAB converter based on the comparison result.

[0070] Specifically, when the shift is compared to D β1 The shift ratio of the DAB converter is not at the upper boundary value D. βdeg When the location is nearby, the process of determining the duty cycle command and shift ratio command of the DAB converter includes:

[0071] ① When the shift ratio is greater than the upper boundary value of the shift ratio, the lower boundary value of the duty cycle is used as the duty cycle command of the DAB converter, and the shift ratio is used as the shift ratio command of the DAB converter.

[0072] ② When the shift ratio is less than the upper boundary value of the shift ratio, the upper boundary value of the duty cycle is used as the duty cycle instruction of the DAB converter, and the shift ratio is used as the shift ratio instruction of the DAB converter.

[0073] ③ When the shift ratio is equal to the upper boundary value of the shift ratio, the zero voltage duty cycle is used as the duty cycle command of the DAB converter, and the upper boundary value of the shift ratio is used as the shift ratio command of the DAB converter.

[0074] Specifically, according to D β1 Select DAB operating mode based on the relationship between D and the size of the control boundary: If D β1 >D βedg Then take the shift ratio of the DAB converter to D βref =D β1 The duty cycle D of the DAB converter αref =D αmin If D β1 <D βedg Then take D. βref =D β1 D αref =D αedg If D β1 =D βedg Then take D. βref =D βedg D αref =D α1 To prevent ANPC from directly accessing the half-bridge, D αref Minimum amplitude at D αmin .

[0075] (3) When the shift ratio is within the preset range of the upper boundary value of the shift ratio, the soft switching duty cycle command and the soft switching shift ratio command of the DAB converter are determined according to the hysteresis control parameters.

[0076] Specifically, when the shift is compared to D β1 The boundary value D is shifted relative to the upper boundary value. βedg When the location is nearby, the process of determining the duty cycle command and shift ratio command of the DAB converter includes:

[0077] ① When the upper hysteresis loop is in the high position, the lower boundary value of the duty cycle is used as the duty cycle instruction of the DAB converter, and the shift ratio is used as the shift ratio instruction of the DAB converter.

[0078] ②When the current hysteresis is in the low position, the upper boundary value of the duty cycle is used as the duty cycle instruction of the DAB converter, and the shift ratio is used as the shift ratio instruction of the DAB converter.

[0079] ③ When the upper hysteresis is not in a high position and the lower hysteresis is not in a low position, the zero voltage duty cycle is used as the duty cycle command of the DAB converter, and the shift ratio is used as the upper boundary value as the shift ratio command of the DAB converter.

[0080] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, to prevent D β1 In D βedg When the near-terminal fluctuations occur, the mode frequently switches. Two hysteresis loops are introduced for mode switching. When the lower hysteresis loop H1 is at a low level, D αref =D αedg The shift ratio of the DAB converter compared to the instruction D βref =D β1 When the upper hysteresis loop H2 is at a high level, D αref =D αmin The shift ratio of the DAB converter compared to the instruction D βref =D β1 The remaining states will be D β1 Frozen in D βedg And D αref =D α1 .

[0081] Step S13: Based on the real-time acquisition of the voltage divider capacitor voltage on the primary side of the DAB converter, the duty cycle command of the DAB converter is corrected using a voltage balancing method.

[0082] Optionally, to prevent imbalance of the ANPC voltage divider capacitor, a voltage balancing strategy is added to the duty cycle, including:

[0083] ① Collect the voltage of the two voltage divider capacitors on the primary side of the DAB converter.

[0084] ②After proportional and limiting control of the voltage difference between the two voltage divider capacitors, the duty cycle fine-tuning amount is obtained.

[0085] ③ Use duty cycle fine-tuning to correct the duty cycle commands for the positive and negative levels of the ANPC converter.

[0086] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the voltage difference between the upper and lower voltage divider capacitors is processed by the P controller to obtain the duty cycle fine-tuning amount ΔD. The expression for the duty cycle of the upper and lower bridges is:

[0087]

[0088] In the formula, D αpref D αnref Corrected duty cycle of ANPC upper and lower bridge arm devices, k b This is the proportional coefficient of the P controller.

[0089] Step S14: Based on the corrected duty cycle command and shift ratio command of the DAB converter, the switch trigger signal of the DAB converter is obtained using a preset modulation method. The switch trigger signal is used to control the operating state of the DAB converter.

[0090] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, D αpref D αnref and D βref All inputs are to the ANPC modulation module, and the secondary H-bridge modulation module outputs a constant 50% voltage square wave modulation signal as a reference.

[0091] It should be noted that the ANPC half-bridge DAB soft-switching region optimization control strategy provided in this embodiment of the invention is not limited to DAB modules used in the photovoltaic power generation field, but can also be used for DAB modules belonging to other converters such as DC transformers; the full-condition soft-switching region representation method includes, but is not limited to, topologies such as ANPC half-bridge DAB converters and two-sided H-bridge DAB converters.
