Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of parallel technology of resonant converter, and particularly relates to a control method of parallel resonant converter with adaptive droop coefficient. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the development of economy, the demand for power supply capacity and function is increasing, such as electric vehicle charging and server base station construction. For example, the electric vehicle charging technology requires multiple charging modes such as constant current, constant voltage and constant power for power supply. The emergence of distributed system architecture has accelerated the development of modular technology of direct current power supply and the expansion and iterative update of power supply products. Compared with the centralized power supply system with poor safety and reliability, the distributed power supply system based on the combination of standard power supply modules in series and parallel has more outstanding advantages, which are as follows:
[0003] (1) Safety and reliability: the series-parallel system reduces the requirements for the withstand voltage, current and thermal stress of power devices. Compared with the centralized power supply system, the power of each module in the multi-module series-parallel combination system is small, which can prolong the service life of each module and improve the safety and reliability of the entire system.
[0004] (2) Redundancy: the redundancy technology between series-parallel combination modules can enhance the stability of the entire power supply system and avoid system paralysis and direct economic loss caused by single module failure in high-power application scenarios.
[0005] (3) Flexibility: the series-parallel combination method facilitates the standardization of direct current power supply modules and is more flexible in configuring system capacity according to load demand.
[0006] (4) Volume and weight: the upgrade of switching power devices makes the single-module direct current power supply gradually high-frequency, effectively reducing the size of the filter in the circuit topology, reducing the volume of the direct current power supply module and the weight of the direct current power supply.
[0007] Among the many methods of parallel power supply control technology, droop control has been widely studied by scholars due to its characteristics of achieving power sharing among LLC resonant converters without sharing current sharing information. However, the complex application environment in modern industrial environment requires more functions of power supply, which means that droop control needs to be improved to adapt to these new functions.
[0008] Although the current source mode CC and the current source mode CC have been realized in a single converter and master-slave control or other interconnected type converters, there are few applications of design in the mode of droop control. This is because the droop control is based on the improvement of the single closed loop of output voltage, and it is not easy to realize the working mode of current source. And the droop control itself will bring the instability of the output external characteristics caused by the change of load, which leads to the less application of the droop control in some occasions which require higher output voltage and need to realize constant current and constant power charging. If multiple sets of control programs are adopted to realize different functions, the difficulty of digital control and software design will be increased. SUMMARY

At the same time, based on the adaptive droop coefficient under the condition of load change, the load switching in the current source mode CC and the voltage source mode CV can have the characteristics of low output voltage regulation rate and output current, and the advantages of the output current balance of each LLC resonant converter under the control of the droop control are retained, which is suitable for the current sharing control of the IPOP type resonant converter and other DC converter parallel control system.

Detailed Implementation
[0045] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:
[0046] Please see Figures 1 to 7 The diagram illustrates a parallel control method for resonant converters with adaptive droop coefficients according to the present invention, comprising: multiple LLC resonant converters and a mode hysteresis comparator.
[0047] like Figure 1As shown, the LLC resonant converter includes a full-bridge switching circuit, a resonant capacitor Cr1, a resonant inductor Lr1, a magnetizing inductor Lrm1, a transformer T1, and a rectifier. The full-bridge switching circuit consists of a first switch Q11, a second switch Q12, a third switch Q13, and a fourth switch Q14. The first switch Q11 and the third switch Q13 are connected in series, and the second switch Q12 and the fourth switch Q14 are connected in series. They are then connected in parallel with the first capacitor Cr1 at the power input terminal. The magnetizing inductor Lrm1 is connected in parallel with the transformer T1. The resonant inductor Lrm1 is connected in parallel with the transformer T1. The inductor Lr1 is connected in series between the magnetizing inductor Lrm1 and the first switching transistor Q11. The resonant capacitor Cr1 is connected in series between the magnetizing inductor Lrm1 and the fourth switching transistor Q14. The rectifier consists of the first rectifier diode D11, the second rectifier diode D12, the third rectifier diode D13, and the fourth rectifier diode D14. The first rectifier diode D11 and the third rectifier diode D13 are connected in series, and the second rectifier diode D12 and the fourth rectifier diode D14 are connected in series. Then, they are connected in parallel with the second capacitor C01 at the power output terminal, and the output terminal is connected to the load RL.
[0048] like Figure 1 As shown, each LLC resonant converter is connected in parallel at both the input and output to form an IPOP-type DC-DC converter parallel control system. By adjusting the droop coefficient, each LLC resonant converter switches between current source mode (CC) and voltage source mode (CV), solving the problem that traditional droop control cannot achieve current source mode (CC). Furthermore, based on the adaptive load change of the droop coefficient, it can achieve low output voltage regulation and low output current during load switching between current source mode (CC) and voltage source mode (CV), while retaining the advantage of balanced output current across modules under droop control. This system is suitable for current sharing control of IPOP-type resonant converters and other IPOP-type DC-DC converter parallel control systems. In the IPOP-type DC-DC converter parallel control system, the output currents of multiple LLC resonant converters are compared using hysteresis. This is used to determine the conditions for the power supply to enter current source mode (CC) and voltage source mode (CV), preventing oscillations at the mode switching edge that could cause instability in the parallel system. For the parallel control system of IPOP-type DC-DC converters, phase-shifting and frequency-modulation control methods can be used for current sharing control. However, phase-shifting control has a large return power and cannot achieve zero-current switching of the secondary rectifier unit, resulting in low conversion efficiency of each LLC resonant converter. Therefore, frequency modulation is used to control each LLC resonant converter. By setting an appropriate frequency modulation range and the dead time of the upper and lower transistors in the same bridge arm, the zero-voltage turn-on (zvs) of the primary-side switching transistors of each LLC resonant converter is ensured, thus guaranteeing system efficiency. Setting an appropriate frequency modulation range allows each LLC resonant converter to operate in a state where the primary-side switching transistor is turned on at zero voltage and the secondary-side rectifier diode is turned off at zero current, improving the system's operating efficiency.
[0049] The primary side switch tube comprises a first switch tube Q11, a second switch tube Q12, a third switch tube Q13 and a fourth switch tube Q14.
[0050] The secondary side rectifier diode comprises a first rectifier diode D11, a second rectifier diode D12, a third rectifier diode D13 and a fourth rectifier diode D14.
