Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of power systems, and more particularly, to a parallel and off-grid switching control method applied to a power conversion device, and a corresponding power conversion device and power supply system. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, with the rapid development of new energy, power conversion systems (PCSs) in new energy microgrids and electrochemical energy storage power stations are widely concerned. According to the connection relationship with the alternating current grid, the PCS has two operating modes of grid connection and off-grid, and in different operating modes, the PCS needs to work in different control modes. When the PCS performs control switching, the switching of the control loop and the instruction will cause the output voltage of the alternating current port of the PCS to change suddenly, thereby causing serious fluctuations in system voltage and current, and further possibly causing serious voltage distortion, too long dynamic regulation time, or even system instability.

[0003] Therefore, how to perform control switching of the PCS, reduce control switching time, and reduce voltage and current fluctuations during switching has become a problem to be solved. SUMMARY

[0004] The present application provides a parallel and off-grid switching control method applied to a power conversion device, which can reduce control switching time and voltage and current fluctuations during switching.

[0005] In a first aspect, a parallel and off-grid switching control method is provided, which is applied to switching between two control modes of a power conversion device, the two control modes being a grid-connected control mode and an off-grid control mode. The grid-connected control mode is to control the power conversion device to convert direct current output by an energy storage system into alternating current and connect the alternating current to an alternating current grid. The off-grid control mode is to control the power conversion device to convert direct current output by the energy storage system into alternating current and supply power to a local load, and the alternating current output by the power conversion device is not connected to the alternating current grid. The method comprises: obtaining grid scheduling information, the grid scheduling information being used to indicate that the power conversion device is switched from the grid-connected control mode to the off-grid control mode; obtaining an output voltage of the power conversion device at a first time, the first time being a time of switching processing of the power conversion device from the grid-connected control mode to the off-grid control mode, or the first time being a receiving time of the grid scheduling information; determining an output voltage of the power conversion device in the off-grid control mode based on the output voltage of the power conversion device at the first time; and a difference between the output voltage of the power conversion device at the first time and the output voltage of the power conversion device in the off-grid control mode within a preset time being less than a set threshold.

[0006] In a possible implementation, the converter device is located in a power supply system formed by a new energy micro-grid or an electrochemical energy storage power station and an alternating current power grid, the converter device is an energy storage converter, and the energy storage system can include a multi-battery system or a coupling of the multi-battery system and a photovoltaic power generation unit.

[0007] It should be understood that a control voltage is generated in the converter device in the embodiment of the application, the control voltage controls the corresponding voltage output by the converter device after being modulated and demodulated, and the output voltage of the converter device at the first moment in the above scheme can include the control voltage for controlling the output voltage of the converter device at the first moment.

[0008] Further, when the converter device connects the energy storage system to the alternating current power grid, the converter device is in a grid-connected operation mode, to improve the active and reactive power instruction following performance of the energy storage system and better participate in the adjustment of the alternating current power grid, the converter device needs to work in a current control mode based on the control voltage output by the controller, that is, the grid-connected control mode in the above scheme is the current control mode. Specifically, in the current control mode, the controller includes a PQ control loop and a current loop, the PQ control loop implements closed-loop following control by executing the active and reactive power instructions output by the converter device, the output current of the PQ control loop is the reference current input to the current loop, the current loop executes closed-loop control of the output current of the converter device, and the control voltage output by the controller is the output voltage of the current loop superimposed on the output voltage of the alternating current port of the converter device.

[0009] When the system is disconnected from the large power grid and only supplies power to the local load, the converter device is in an off-grid operation mode, to improve the voltage and frequency stability and transient support capability of the island system and improve the reliability of the local load power supply, the converter device needs to work in a voltage control mode based on the control voltage output by the controller, that is, the off-grid control mode is the voltage control mode. Specifically, in the voltage control mode, the controller includes a virtual synchronous machine control loop, a voltage reference generator, a voltage loop, and a current loop, the virtual synchronous machine control loop executes virtual synchronous machine control, the voltage reference generator calculates the reference voltage input to the voltage loop according to the voltage amplitude, frequency, and latch value of the latch output by the virtual synchronous machine control loop, and the voltage and current loops respectively execute closed-loop control of the output voltage and current of the converter device, and the output current of the current loop is the reference current input to the voltage loop.

[0010] Based on the above scheme, the difference between the output voltage of the converter device at the first moment and the output voltage of the converter device in the off-grid control mode within a preset time is less than a set threshold, which can reduce the control switching time and the fluctuation of voltage and current in the switching process

[0011] In some implementations of the first aspect, the determining the output voltage of the power conversion device in the off-grid control mode based on the output voltage of the power conversion device at the first time point comprises: setting an output reference voltage of the power conversion device according to a first control voltage, the first control voltage being a control voltage of the power conversion device at the first time point, the control voltage being used to control the output voltage of the power conversion device; obtaining a feedback parameter, the feedback parameter comprising a voltage and a current of alternating current output by the power conversion device; determining the second control voltage based on the output reference voltage of the power conversion device and the feedback parameter; and determining the output voltage of the power conversion device in the off-grid control mode based on the second control voltage.

[0012] It should be noted that the first control voltage as the output reference voltage of the power conversion device means that the amplitude of the first control voltage is used as the initial amplitude of the output reference voltage of the power conversion device, and the phase of the first control voltage is used as the initial phase of the output reference voltage of the power conversion device.

[0013] It should be understood that the output reference voltage of the power conversion device refers to the output voltage of a reference voltage generator in a voltage controller and is the reference voltage of an input voltage loop.

[0014] Based on the above scheme, the first control voltage is saved at the moment when the control switching starts, and is used as the initial value of the amplitude and the phase of the output reference voltage of the power conversion device in the off-grid control mode, so that the control voltage for converting direct current into alternating current by the power conversion device at the moment of control switching does not suddenly change, and the output voltage of the alternating current port of the power conversion device does not suddenly change, thereby reducing the voltage and current distortion and the regulation time in the control switching process. By giving the initial phase value, the circulating current between the power conversion devices in the non-synchronous switching in the power supply system with multiple power conversion devices is avoided.

[0015] In addition, the output reference voltage of the power conversion device is transitioned from the first control voltage to the rated voltage in the steady state operation in the off-grid control mode, so that the control quantity does not suddenly change in the switching transient state, and the voltage and current distortion and the regulation time in the switching process are reduced.

[0016] In some implementations of the first aspect, the determining the output voltage of the power conversion device in the off-grid control mode based on the output reference voltage of the power conversion device and the feedback parameter comprises: generating an intermediate voltage after the output reference voltage of the power conversion device and the feedback parameter pass through a current loop and a voltage loop; and generating the second control voltage by adding the output reference voltage of the power conversion device and the intermediate voltage.

[0017] Specifically, the output reference voltage of the converter and the voltage of the AC power output by the converter are taken as inputs of a voltage loop, the output current of the voltage loop and the current of the AC power output by the converter are taken as inputs of a current loop, the output voltage of the current loop is the intermediate voltage in the above solution, and the output reference voltage of the converter is superimposed on the intermediate voltage as a feedforward quantity to determine the control voltage.

[0018] In the above solution, the output reference voltage of the converter is superimposed on the output voltage of the current loop as a feedforward quantity, so that the hysteresis effect of the PI controller used after the VCM control loop is enabled is avoided, the control voltage cannot be smoothly transitioned, and it is ensured that the voltage of the AC power output by the converter does not suddenly change during the control switching process.

[0019] With reference to the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the method further includes gradually setting the output reference voltage of the converter to a rated voltage at a set step, the rated voltage being an output voltage of the converter when the converter is stably operated in the off-grid control state.

[0020] By setting the step, the voltage change amplitude during the switching process can be controlled, and voltage mutation is avoided.

[0021] With reference to the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the second control voltage satisfies:

[0022]

[0023] V out,m = V out,Inner + V out,ref

[0024] wherein I out represents the current of the AC power output by the converter, V out represents the voltage of the AC power output by the converter, V out,ref represents the output reference voltage of the converter, V out,Inner represents the intermediate voltage, G out (s) represents a transfer function of the voltage loop in the off-grid control mode, G Inner (s) represents a transfer function of the current loop in the off-grid control mode, V out,m represents the second control voltage.

[0025] In the above solution, the output reference voltage of the converter is superimposed on the output voltage of the current loop as a feedforward quantity, so that the hysteresis effect of the PI controller used after the VCM control loop is enabled is avoided, the control voltage cannot be smoothly transitioned, and it is ensured that the voltage of the AC power output by the converter does not suddenly change during the control switching process.

[0026] In combination with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the output reference voltage of the current conversion device satisfies:

[0027]

[0028] where Δt represents a time length from the first time point to a current time point, t0 represents a time length of the first time period, E out,CCM represents a voltage amplitude of the first control voltage, θ out,CCM represents a phase of the first control voltage, E out,VSG represents a voltage amplitude of the rated voltage, ω out,VSG represents an angular frequency of the rated voltage, and f(Δt) is a voltage amplitude switching function.

[0029] In a possible implementation, the voltage amplitude of the rated voltage and the angular frequency of the rated voltage are obtained through simulation of a virtual synchronous machine control loop.

[0030] Based on the above scheme, the amplitude of the output reference voltage of the current conversion device is smoothly transitioned from a given initial value to a rated voltage amplitude in a selected transition curve form in stable operation; the phase of the output reference voltage of the current conversion device is obtained by integrating the angular frequency of the rated voltage as a proportional coefficient with respect to time to obtain the phase of the rated voltage. Further, the above scheme ensures smooth transition of the current conversion device from the grid-connected control mode to the off-grid control mode after control switching, avoids large fluctuations of control quantities in the switching transient state, and reduces voltage, current distortion and regulation time in the switching process.

[0031] In combination with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the voltage amplitude switching function is:

[0032] f(Δt)=e -τ·Δt

[0033] where τ is a constant for adjusting the time length of the first time period.

[0035] f(Δt)=k·Δt

[0036] where k is a constant for adjusting the time length of the first time period.

[0037] In combination with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the method further comprises: obtaining grid fault information, the grid fault information being used to indicate that the AC power grid loses power and to indicate that the current conversion device is switched from the grid-connected control mode to the off-grid control mode.

[0038] In a possible implementation, the power grid fault information is generated by a detection module in the power conversion device after detecting that the AC power grid is out of power.

[0039] In a possible implementation, the power grid fault information is sent by a central controller in communication with the power conversion device. Further, the central controller is in communication with a grid connection switch, one end of which is connected to the power conversion device and the other end of which is connected to the AC power grid, and the state of the grid connection switch is used to determine whether the AC power grid connected to the power conversion device is out of power; or the central controller receives a signal from another power conversion device connected to the AC power grid, and the signal is used to determine whether the AC power grid connected to the power conversion device is out of power.

[0040] Based on the above scheme, in a power supply system with multiple power conversion devices, island state determination and control switching triggering are performed by the detection module and the central processor, so that the single power conversion device can immediately enter the switching state when detecting the island state, and at the same time, the failure of the overall grid-connected / off-grid switching of the cluster due to the fact that some power conversion devices are converted to off-grid VCM operation first and the remaining power conversion devices cannot accurately determine the island state while the system reaches power balance is effectively avoided.

The PCS includes a converter and a control unit. The PCS can control the charging and discharging process of the battery system. Specifically, the control unit of the PCS receives the background control instructions through communication, controls the charging or discharging of the battery system according to the sign and size of the power instruction, so as to realize the adjustment of the active power and the reactive power of the grid. The control unit of the PCS communicates with the battery management system (BMS) through the CAN interface to obtain the battery pack state information, and can realize the protective charging and discharging of the battery to ensure the safe operation of the battery.

[0097] Microgrid: A small power network that can achieve internal power balance, including distributed power generation equipment, power load, monitoring / protection and automation devices, and energy storage equipment when necessary. It can operate in parallel with the external grid or operate independently.

[0101] Current control mode (CCM): Simultaneously monitor voltage and current, adjust PWM duty cycle, ensure stable output voltage and output current within normal range, and prevent overcurrent. The principle of current control mode is to send the voltage on the sampling resistor to the input of the current comparator and compare it with the output of the voltage error amplifier, and then control the size of PWM to realize stable voltage and appropriate current range.

The principle of voltage control mode is to take the voltage at the load end as the input of the error amplifier, and the other input of the error amplifier is the reference voltage. After comparison, it is sent to the input of the PWM controller and processed with the fixed sawtooth wave signal to generate the PWM signal to control the conduction and turn-off of the switch tube, thereby realizing the regulation of voltage.

[0103] Virtual synchronous generator (VSG): VSG is to embed the mathematical model of synchronous generator into the control algorithm of inverter, simulate the operation technology of static power electronic device as rotating machine, and has the functions of damping voltage and frequency rapid fluctuation, automatic power distribution, synchronous grid operation by simulating the primary frequency regulation and voltage regulation of synchronous generator. By embedding the synchronous generator equation in the control system of the converter, the VSG can realize the power exchange between the DC power supply and the system according to the characteristics of the synchronous generator. From the system point of view, if the high frequency component generated by the switching action of power electronic device is ignored, the VSG is equivalent to the synchronous generator.

[0104] It should be understood that the voltage and current in this application are vector descriptions, including the amplitude, phase and angular frequency of the voltage and current. The voltage value refers to the voltage amplitude, which is a scalar, and is not the same as the voltage. The current value is the same.

[0105] Figure 1 is the application scenario of an embodiment of the application. As shown in Figure 1 , the application scenario includes an energy storage system 110, a converter device 120, an AC power grid 130, a local load 140, a central controller 150 and a grid-connected switch 160. Among them, the DC end of the converter device is connected with the energy storage system, the AC end of the converter device is connected with the AC power grid through the grid-connected switch, and the AC end of the converter device is also connected with the local load.

[0106] In some examples, the above-mentioned energy storage system (ESS) can include a multi-battery system, and can also include a coupling of a multi-battery system and a photovoltaic power generation unit.

[0107] In the embodiment of the application, the central controller can communicate with the converter device, and can also communicate with the grid-connected switch. Exemplarily, if the above-mentioned application scenario is a micro-grid scenario, the central controller is a micro-grid central controller; if the above-mentioned application scenario is an energy storage power station scenario, the central controller is an energy storage power station controller.

[0108] It should be understood that the converter device in the present application can be applied to a new energy micro-grid or an electrochemical energy storage power station, and can also be applied to other fields.

[0109] In the embodiments of the present application, when the grid connection switch is closed, the ESS is connected to the AC power grid for operation, and the converter device is in a grid-connected operation mode. In order to improve the active and reactive power instruction following performance of the system and better participate in the grid regulation, the converter device needs to work in a current control mode. When the grid connection switch is opened, the ESS is disconnected from the AC power grid, and only supplies power to the local load, and the converter device is in an off-grid operation mode. In order to improve the voltage and frequency stability and transient support capability, and improve the reliability of local load power supply, the converter device needs to work in a voltage control mode.

[0110] The application scenarios of the embodiments of the present application can include multiple energy storage systems, and correspondingly, multiple converter devices. The AC sides of the multiple converter devices are connected in parallel at a point of common coupling (PCC) to form a converter device cluster. Further, the AC sides of the multiple converter devices are connected in parallel at the PCC through filters to form a converter device cluster. Each converter device is connected to an ESS, the PCC is connected to a local load, the PCC is also connected to an AC power grid through a grid connection switch, and a central controller is also connected to the grid connection switch and each converter device in communication.

[0111] Figure 2 FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a control switching method 200 according to an embodiment of the present application. The method 200 can be applied to a converter device which can be placed in a power supply system. The converter device has at least two control modes. In a grid-connected control mode, the converter device can convert DC power output by an energy storage system into AC power based on a control voltage and connect the AC power to an AC power grid. In an off-grid control mode, the converter device can convert DC power output by an energy storage system into AC power based on a control voltage and supply the AC power to a local load. In the off-grid control mode, the AC power output by the converter device is not connected to the AC power grid.

[0112] In a possible implementation, further, when the converter device connects the energy storage system to the AC power grid, the converter device is in a grid-connected operation mode. In order to improve the active and reactive power instruction following performance of the energy storage system and better participate in the AC power grid regulation, the converter device needs to work in a current control mode, that is, the grid-connected control mode in the above scheme is a current control mode. Specifically, in the current control mode, the controller includes a PQ control loop and a current loop. The PQ control loop implements closed-loop following control by executing active and reactive power instructions output by the converter device. The output current of the PQ control loop is a reference current input to the current loop. The current loop executes closed-loop control of the output current of the current device. The control voltage output by the controller is the output voltage of the current loop superimposed with the output voltage of the AC port of the converter device.

[0113] When the system is disconnected from the large power grid and only supplies power to the local load, the converter device is in an off-grid operation mode. In order to improve the voltage and frequency stability and transient support capability of the island system, and improve the reliability of the local load power supply, the converter device needs to work in a voltage control mode based on the control voltage output by the controller, that is, the off-grid control mode is a voltage control mode. Specifically, in the voltage control mode, the controller includes a virtual synchronous machine control loop, a voltage reference generator, a voltage loop and a current loop. The virtual synchronous machine control loop executes virtual synchronous machine control. The voltage reference generator calculates the reference voltage of the voltage loop according to the voltage amplitude, frequency and latch value of the latch output by the virtual synchronous machine control loop. The voltage loop and the current loop respectively execute closed-loop control of the output voltage and current of the converter device. The output current of the current loop is the reference current of the voltage loop.

[0114] It should be understood that in the embodiments of the present application, the converter device outputs voltage according to the control voltage output by the controller in the converter device, therefore, obtaining the output voltage of the converter device can include obtaining the corresponding control voltage, and correspondingly, determining the control voltage can determine the corresponding output voltage of the converter device.

[0115] It should be understood that in the embodiments of the present application, when the energy storage system is connected to the AC power grid through the converter device, the energy storage system can supply power to the local load together with the AC power grid, and the energy storage system can also store the power of the AC power grid. When the energy storage system is connected to the AC power grid through the converter device, the current device is working in the grid-connected control mode.

[0116] The converter device includes a controller and a power conversion circuit, wherein the controller is used to control the converter device in different modes according to the output control voltage, and the execution subject of the method 200 is the controller in the converter device or the whole converter device.

[0117] In some examples, the direct-current power supply in the power supply system can be a photovoltaic grid-connected power generation system, the alternating-current power grid in the power supply system can be a commercial power network, and the converter device can be a PCS.

[0118] As shown in Figure 2 , the method includes:

[0119] S210, obtaining first indication information, the first indication information being used to indicate that the converter device is switched from the grid-connected control mode to the off-grid control mode.

[0120] In some examples, the converter device can be a PCS or a converter circuit in the PCS.

[0121] In a possible implementation, the first indication information includes grid scheduling information.

[0122] In a possible implementation, the first indication information comprises power grid failure information, and the power grid failure information is from a detection module. Specifically, the detection module determines that the AC power grid connected with the power conversion device is out of power, and sends the power grid failure information. The detection module can be a detection module in the power conversion device, or can be an external detection module, and the application does not limit this.

[0123] Exemplarily, the detection module is an island detection module. When the detection module detects an island state, it can be determined that the AC power grid connected with the power conversion device is out of power, and thus the power grid failure information is sent.

[0124] For ease of understanding, the island state and island detection are described below.

[0125] The island state refers to a self-provided power island phenomenon formed by a photovoltaic grid-connected power generation system installed at each user end supplying power to surrounding loads when the photovoltaic grid-connected power generation system fails to detect a power-off state in time and cannot quickly cut off the power supply from the power grid due to reasons such as failure accidents or power-off maintenance.

[0126] The island detection method can be divided into three categories: passive detection method, active detection method and switch state monitoring method.

[0127] The passive method uses the change of the voltage, frequency, phase or harmonic at the output end of the inverter when the AC power grid is out of power for island detection.

[0128] The active island detection method refers to controlling the inverter to make the output power, frequency or phase have a certain disturbance. When the AC power grid is working normally, the disturbance cannot be detected due to the balance of the power grid. When the AC power grid fails, the disturbance output by the inverter will quickly accumulate and exceed the allowed range, thereby triggering the island detection circuit.

[0129] The switch state monitoring method mainly uses the communication mode to judge the island state by monitoring the state of the grid-connected switch.

[0130] In a possible implementation, the power grid failure information is from a central controller. Specifically, the central processor determines that the AC power grid connected with the power conversion device is out of power, and sends the power grid failure information.

[0131] Exemplarily, the central controller receives information from the grid-connected switch. If the grid-connected switch indicates that the grid-connected switch has been disconnected, the central controller determines that the AC power grid is out of power and sends the power grid failure information.

[0132] Exemplarily, the central controller receives the signal from the power conversion device, judges the signal from the power conversion device, and if it is judged that the AC power grid is out of power, sends the power grid failure information to the power conversion device which establishes communication with the central controller. Specifically, the central controller establishes communication with multiple PCSs, all the PCSs upload their respective Switch_PCS signals to the central controller, if the central controller monitors that there is Switch_PCS=1, it is determined that the AC power grid is out of power, and the central controller sends the power grid failure information to other PCSs which establish communication, so as to ensure that when the AC power grid is out of power, all the PCSs which establish communication with the central controller obtain the power grid failure information.

[0133] S220, obtaining the output voltage of the power conversion device at the first time, the first time being the time of the switching process in which the power conversion device switches the grid-connected control mode to the off-grid control mode, or the first time being the receiving time of the power grid scheduling information.

[0134] It should be noted that obtaining the output voltage of the power conversion device at the first time includes obtaining a first control voltage used for controlling the output voltage of the power conversion device at the first time.

[0135] Specifically, the obtained first control voltage includes saving the amplitude and phase of the first control voltage.

[0136] S230, determining the output voltage of the power conversion device in the off-grid control mode based on the output voltage of the power conversion device at the first time; the difference between the output voltage of the power conversion device at the first time and the output voltage of the power conversion device in the off-grid control mode within a preset time is less than a set threshold.

[0137] Wherein, determining the output voltage of the power conversion device in the off-grid control mode based on the output voltage of the power conversion device at the first time means determining the control voltage of the power conversion device in the off-grid control mode based on the first control voltage of the power conversion device at the first time, and then determining the output voltage of the power conversion device in the off-grid control mode according to the control voltage of the power conversion device in the off-grid control mode.

[0138] Further, in the off-grid control mode, the control voltage is generated by the power conversion device based on the output reference voltage of the power conversion device, and the output reference voltage of the power conversion device meets the rated voltage when the power conversion device is in stable operation.

[0139] Specifically, the output reference voltage of the converter is set according to the first control voltage, and the first control voltage is used as the initial voltage of the output reference voltage of the converter. In some examples, the output reference voltage of the converter is the output voltage of the voltage reference generator in the voltage control mode, which is used to generate the control voltage for controlling the converter to convert the direct current into alternating current in the voltage control mode. The initial voltage amplitude of the output reference voltage of the converter is the voltage amplitude of the first control voltage, and the initial phase of the output reference voltage of the converter is the phase of the first control voltage. Further, the frequency of the first control voltage can also be saved in S220, and the initial frequency of the output reference voltage of the converter is the frequency of the first control voltage.

[0140] In the above process, the first control voltage is saved at the control switching moment, and is used as the initial value of the output reference voltage amplitude and phase of the converter in the off-grid control mode. This ensures that the voltage for controlling the converter to convert the direct current into alternating current does not suddenly change at the control switching moment, and further ensures that the alternating current port output voltage of the converter does not suddenly change, thereby reducing the voltage and current distortion and the regulation time in the control switching process. By giving the initial phase, the circulating current between the converters in the non-synchronous switching of the power supply system with multiple converters is avoided.

[0141] Further, the output reference voltage of the converter is transitioned from the initial voltage to the rated voltage in the first time period.

[0142] The first time period can refer to the time period for completing the control switching process, and the start time of the first time period is the first time, which refers to the time when the converter starts the switching process of switching from the grid-connected control mode to the off-grid control mode, or the receiving time of the first indication information. The first time period can also refer to the time period for completing the entire grid-off switching process of the power supply system, and the start time of the first time period is the time when the grid-connected switch is turned off. It should be understood that the length of the first time period can be set according to the actual application, and the specific setting method of the length of the first time period is not limited in the present application.

[0143] The rated voltage is the output reference voltage of the converter after the control switching is completed and the converter is stably operated in the voltage control mode.

[0144] For example, the specific value of the rated voltage can be determined by an algorithm simulation VSG control loop calculation, and the rated voltage includes the amplitude and angular frequency of the rated voltage.

[0145] In one possible implementation, the output reference voltage of the converter is gradually set to the rated voltage at a set step.

[0146] Specifically, in some examples, when the output reference voltage of the current conversion device is transited from the first control voltage to the rated voltage in the first time period, the output reference voltage of the current conversion device satisfies:

[0147]

[0148] wherein Δt represents a time length from the first time to the current time, t0 represents a time length of the first time period, E out,CCM represents a voltage amplitude of the first control voltage, θ out,CCM represents a phase of the first control voltage, E out,VSG represents a voltage amplitude of the rated voltage, ω out,VSG represents an angular frequency of the rated voltage, and f(Δt) is a voltage amplitude switching function.

[0149] In a possible implementation, the voltage amplitude adopts an exponential transition curve, and the voltage amplitude switching function is:

[0150] f(Δt)=1-e -τ·Δt

[0151] wherein τ is a constant, and is used to adjust the time length of the first time period. Specifically, if it is needed to increase the time length of the first time period, the value of τ can be reduced to achieve; if it is needed to reduce the time length of the first time period, the value of τ can be increased to achieve.

[0152] In a possible implementation, the voltage amplitude adopts a linear transition curve, and the voltage amplitude switching function is:

[0153] f(Δt)=k·Δt

[0154] wherein k is a constant, and is used to adjust the time length of the first time period. Specifically, if it is needed to increase the time length of the first time period, the value of k can be reduced to achieve; if it is needed to reduce the time length of the first time period, the value of k can be increased to achieve.

[0155] In the above process, the amplitude of the output reference voltage of the current conversion device is smoothly transited from a given initial value to the rated voltage amplitude output by the VSG control loop in the form of a selected transition curve; and the phase of the output reference voltage of the current conversion device is obtained by integrating the time with the angular frequency of the VSG control output as a proportional coefficient from a given initial value. The scheme ensures that the current conversion device is smoothly transited from CCM to VCM state based on VSG control after control switching, avoids large fluctuations of control quantity in switching transient state, reduces voltage and current distortion and regulation time in the switching process.

[0156] After the output reference voltage of the current conversion device is determined, a feedback parameter is obtained, a second control voltage is generated according to the output reference voltage of the current conversion device and the feedback parameter, the second control voltage is used to control the current conversion device to convert the direct current into the alternating current in the voltage control mode, and then the output voltage of the current conversion device in the off-grid control mode is determined based on the second control voltage. The feedback parameter includes the voltage and the current output by the alternating current port of the current conversion device, that is, the voltage and the current of the alternating current grid to which the current conversion device is connected.

[0157] Specifically, an intermediate voltage is generated according to the output reference voltage of the current conversion device and the feedback parameter, and the second control voltage is determined by adding the output reference voltage of the current conversion device and the intermediate voltage.

[0158] In a possible implementation, the second control voltage satisfies:

[0159] V out,Inner = G Inner (s) × [G out (s) · (V out,ref -V out )-I out ]

[0160] V out,m = V out,Inner + V out,ref

[0161] wherein I out represents the current of the alternating current output by the current conversion device, V out represents the voltage of the alternating current output by the current conversion device, V out,ref represents the output reference voltage of the current conversion device, V out,Inner represents the intermediate voltage, G out (s) represents a transfer function of a voltage loop in the voltage control mode, G Inner (s) represents a transfer function of a current loop in the voltage control mode, V out,m represents the second control voltage.

[0162] As can be seen from the formula satisfied by the above second control voltage, the output reference voltage of the current conversion device is superimposed on the output voltage of the current loop as a feedforward amount, which avoids the hysteresis effect of the PI controller used after the second control loop is enabled, so that the control voltage cannot be smoothly transitioned, and ensures that the output voltage of the alternating current port of the current conversion device does not suddenly change during the control switching process.

[0163] In the above scheme, the first control voltage is saved at the control switching moment, the output reference voltage of the inverter device in the off-grid control mode is transitioned from the first control voltage to the rated voltage, and the output reference voltage of the inverter device is used to generate the control voltage as a feedforward quantity, so that the voltage of the inverter device for converting the direct current into the alternating current does not suddenly change at the control switching moment, and further, the voltage of the alternating current port of the inverter device does not suddenly change, thereby reducing the voltage, current distortion and regulation time in the control switching process. Meanwhile, in the power supply system with multiple inverter devices, through the given phase initial value, the circulating current between the inverter devices in the non-synchronous switching is avoided.

[0164] In addition, in the power supply system with multiple inverter devices, the island state judgment and the control switching triggering are performed through the detection module and the central processing unit, so that while ensuring that a single inverter device enters the switching state immediately when the island state is detected, the failure of the overall grid-off-grid switching of the cluster due to the fact that the remaining inverter devices cannot accurately judge the island state when the system reaches the power balance after part of the inverter devices are first converted into the off-grid VCM operation is effectively avoided.

[0165] It should be understood that the transfer function of the voltage loop and the transfer function of the current loop in the above formula can be obtained by simulating the voltage loop and the current loop through an algorithm. The following will be described in combination with Figure 3 and Figure 4 The algorithm implementation of the method 200 will be specifically described.

[0166] Figure 3 is a schematic block diagram of the controller algorithm 300 of an embodiment of the present application, and the controller algorithm 300 is a controller algorithm for implementing the above method 200. For the convenience of understanding, the grid-connected control mode in the method 200 is represented by a current control mode, and the off-grid control mode in the method 200 is represented by a voltage control mode. As shown in Figure 3 The current controller, the voltage controller, the switching module and the information extraction module are simulated in the controller algorithm 300, wherein the current controller is used to control the inverter device or the power conversion circuit in the inverter device in the CCM mode, and the voltage controller is used to control the inverter device or the power conversion circuit in the inverter device in the VCM mode.

[0167] When the power supply system in which the inverter device is located is in the grid-connected state, the switching module selects the current controller, the current controller is started, the voltage controller is frozen, and the inverter device is controlled in the CCM mode. The controller algorithm 300 simulates the PQ control loop and the current loop in the current control mode. Specifically, the reference current I out,ref’ is calculated by simulating the PQ control loop, and the reference current is subtracted from the output current value I out, and then the output voltage of the current loop is subtracted from the output voltage value V out of the AC port of the converter device, and the difference is taken as the input current of the current loop, and then the output voltage of the current loop is added to the output voltage value V out,CCM of the AC port of the converter device, and the difference is taken as the input current of the current loop, and then the output voltage of the current loop is added to the reference voltage V out,m as the control voltage V out,m in the CCM mode. Therefore, in the CCM mode, the control voltage V out,CCM satisfies:

[0168] V cur = V out,ref′ + G out (s) * (I out -I cur ) + V out

[0169] wherein G out,CCM (s) represents a current loop transfer function.

[0170] PQ control, also known as active / reactive power control, is a constant power control, which controls the output power to be a given value by controlling the current, and is a current control. PQ control is applied to a grid-connected distributed power generation or microgrid system, in which an AC power grid provides voltage support, and a distributed power generation system is treated as a constant power output. PQ control can ensure the balance between power generation and power consumption on the AC power grid by controlling active power and reactive power.

[0171] When the power supply system in which the converter device is located is in an off-grid state, the switching module selects the voltage controller, the voltage controller is started, the current controller is frozen, and the converter device is controlled in the VCM mode. The controller algorithm 300 simulates a VSG control loop, a reference voltage generator, a voltage loop and a current loop in the voltage control mode.

[0172] Specifically, the reference voltage generator is used to generate a reference voltage V out,ref , and the output voltage value V out of the AC port of the converter device is subtracted from the reference voltage, and the difference is taken as the input of the voltage loop, and the output current I out,ref of the voltage loop is subtracted from the output current value I out of the AC port of the converter device, and the difference is taken as the input of the current loop, and then the reference voltage V out,ref is added to the output of the current loop as the control voltage V out,VCM in the VCM mode, wherein the output voltage of the current loop is the intermediate voltage in the method 200. Therefore, in the VCM mode, the control voltage V out,m satisfies:

[0173] V out,m = G Inner (s) * [G out (s) * V out,ref -Vout )-I out ]+V out,ref

[0174] Among them, G out (s) represents the transfer function of the voltage loop in voltage control mode, G Inner (s) represents the transfer function of the current loop in voltage control mode.

[0175] At the moment when the switching module selects the voltage controller, the information extraction module collects and saves the V value at that moment. out,CCM and extract V out,CCM amplitude E out,CCM and phase θ out,CCM Send it to the reference voltage generator, the reference voltage generator will send E out,CCM and θ out,CCM As a reference voltage V out,ref The initial value. The VSG control loop calculates the rated voltage V of the reference voltage during steady-state operation in VCM mode. out,VSG and the rated voltage V out,CCM The corresponding amplitude E out,VSG and angular frequency ω out,VSG Sending it to the reference voltage generator. The voltage reference generator, after switching modules to select the voltage controller, will send the reference voltage from V for a period of time. out,CCM Transition to V out,VSG This time period is referred to as the first time period. The duration of the first time period can be set according to actual needs. During the first time period, the reference voltage V... out,ref satisfy:

[0176]

[0177] Where Δt represents the duration from the start time of the first time period to the current time, t0 represents the duration of the first time period, and E out,ref The voltage amplitude representing the reference voltage, θ out,ref The phase of the reference voltage is represented by f(Δt), which is the voltage amplitude switching function.

[0178] The voltage amplitude switching function can gradually set the output reference voltage of the converter to the rated voltage in a set step size.

[0179] In one possible implementation, the voltage amplitude uses an exponential transition curve, and the voltage amplitude switching function is:

[0180] f(Δt)=1-e -τ·Δt

[0181] Wherein, τ is a constant, used to adjust the length of the first time period. Specifically, if the length of the first time period needs to be increased, the value of τ can be reduced to achieve; if the length of the first time period needs to be reduced, the value of τ can be increased to achieve.

[0182] In a possible implementation, the voltage amplitude adopts a linear transition curve, and the voltage amplitude switching function is:

[0183] f (Δt) = k · Δt

[0184] Wherein, k is a constant, used to adjust the length of the first time period. Specifically, if the length of the first time period needs to be increased, the value of k can be reduced to achieve; if the length of the first time period needs to be reduced, the value of k can be increased to achieve.

[0185] When the reference voltage transitions to V out,VSG , the control switching process is completed, and the converter operates in the VCM mode. After the control switching process is completed, the amplitude of the reference voltage is equal to the voltage amplitude of the output of the VSG control loop, and the angular frequency of the reference voltage is equal to the angular frequency of the output of the VSG control loop.

[0186] It should be understood that, corresponding to the method 200, the reference voltage in the algorithm 300 refers to the output reference voltage of the converter in the method 200, and the time when the switching module selects the V out,CCM Corresponding to the first control voltage in the method 200, the control voltage V out,m Corresponding to the second control voltage in the method 200.

[0187] In the embodiments of the present application, the switching module can establish communication with the detection module and the central controller. Specifically, if the switching module receives a switching instruction signal from the detection module and / or the central controller, the switching module switches from the current controller to the controller.

[0188] In a possible implementation, if the detection module detects that the AC power grid is out of power, the switching module sends a switching instruction signal to the switching module, and further, the detection module sends fault indication information to the central controller.

[0189] In a possible implementation, the central controller sends switching instruction information to the switching module if it receives an off-grid indication signal from the grid-connected switch and / or receives fault indication information from the detection module. If the power supply system in which the central controller is located includes multiple converter devices connected to the same AC power grid, the central controller sends switching instruction information to the switching modules of all the converter devices if it receives an off-grid indication signal from the grid-connected switch and / or receives fault indication information from the detection module corresponding to any of the converter devices. It should be understood that the connection of the converter device to the AC power grid can be direct or indirect, that is, the connection of the converter device to the AC power grid means that the AC power grid fault will affect the converter device.

[0190] In this application, the switching module can select V out,CCM or V out,VCM as V out,m , and then input V out,m to the modulation module, and send the modulated signal to the converter after modulation, to control the converter to convert the DC power into AC power that can be connected to the AC power grid, wherein V out,m may also be referred to as the modulation wave of the converter device.

[0191] In some examples, the converter device can be a PCS, and the corresponding DC power comes from an energy storage system connected to the PCS.

[0192] It should be understood that the algorithm 300 is an algorithmic implementation of the method 200, and in fact, those skilled in the art can realize that each module in the algorithm 300 can also be implemented by electronic hardware.

[0193] In the above scheme, the output voltage of the current controller at the control switching moment is saved as the initial value of the reference voltage in the voltage controller, and then the reference voltage is transitioned to the rated voltage, and the reference voltage is used as the feedforward amount to generate the output voltage of the voltage controller, which ensures that the voltage for converting the DC power to AC power by the converter device at the control switching moment will not suddenly change, thereby ensuring that the AC port output voltage of the converter device will not suddenly change, thereby reducing the voltage and current distortion and regulation time during the control switching process. At the same time, in a power supply system including multiple converter devices, by giving the phase initial value, the circulating current between the converter devices under asynchronous switching is avoided.

[0194] In addition, in a power supply system including multiple converter devices, island state judgment and control switching triggering are performed by the detection module and the central processor, which ensures that a single converter device enters the switching state immediately when it detects the island state, and effectively avoids the failure of the overall grid-connected / off-grid switching of the cluster due to the fact that some converter devices are the first to run in off-grid VCM, and the remaining converter devices cannot accurately judge the island state, resulting in the failure of the overall grid-connected / off-grid switching of the cluster.

[0195] Figure 4 is a flow chart of the controller algorithm 400 of an embodiment of the present application, which is a controller algorithm for implementing the above-mentioned method 200. For ease of description, the power conversion device in the embodiments of the present application takes the PCS as an example, as shown in the following figure: Figure 4

[0196] S410: the CCM controller is in an enabled state, the VCM controller is in a frozen state, and the PCS modulation wave V out,m is an output variable of the CCM controller out,CCM . This step is a control mode before the PCS turns to off-grid, and is used to generate the modulation wave V out,m for the PWM pulse. The calculation method can refer to the method for calculating the control voltage V out,m in the CCM mode in the algorithm 300, which will not be described herein. This step implements the power scheduling instruction response function of the PCS in the grid-connected mode.

[0197] S420: whether the detection module detects that the AC power grid loses power. This step is used to determine whether the power supply system enters an island state, and the method for detecting the island state can refer to step S210. If the power supply system enters an island state, step S430 is executed; if the power supply system does not enter an island state, step S440 is executed.

[0198] S430: Switch_PCS=1, and Switch_PCS is uploaded to the central controller. Switch_PCS is a PCS island detection flag signal, Switch_PCS=1 in an off-grid state, and Switch_PCS=0 in a grid-connected state. In the case where there are multiple PCSs in the system, if a PCS detects that the main grid loses power, the PCS island detection flag signal Switch_PCS is set to 1, and the value of Switch_PCS is uploaded to the central controller.

[0199] S440: whether Switch_CC is 1. Switch_CC represents an island detection flag signal issued by the central controller to each PCS, Switch_CC=1 in an off-grid state, and Switch_CC=0 in a grid-connected state. If Switch_CC is 1, step S450 is executed; if Switch_CC is 0, step S410 is executed.

[0200] ​S450: Set Switch_off to 1. Switch_off is the on / off switching command. In off-grid mode, Switch_off = 1; in on-grid mode, Switch_off = 0. If the PCS islanding detection flag signal Switch_PCS is 1, or if the system central controller sends a Switch_CC signal of 1, then this PCS immediately enters the on / off switching process and sets the on / off switching command Switch_off to 1. Switch_off is used to drive the PCC controller to freeze the on-grid CCM controller, start the VCM controller, and modulate the V-wave. out,m Value switching and VCM voltage reference amplitude and initial phase value latching.

[0205] Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of a current conversion device 500 according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 5 The current conversion device includes a controller and a power conversion circuit. One end of the power conversion circuit is connected to a direct current power supply (not shown in the figure), and the other end is connected to an alternating current power supply (not shown in the figure). The power conversion circuit converts direct current into alternating current under the action of the voltage output by the controller. The controller is used to implement the functions of the controller in algorithms 300 and 400 or to implement method 200. The controller outputs a voltage V out,CCM to the power conversion circuit in a current control mode if the current conversion device is in a grid-connected state. The controller outputs a voltage V out,CCM to the power conversion circuit in a voltage control mode if the current conversion device is in an off-grid state.

[0206] For example, the controller stores a computer program that can implement the functions of the controller in algorithms 300 and 400 or implement method 200.

[0207] In a possible implementation, the controller receives indication information from a detection module to obtain the state of the current conversion device.

[0208] In a possible implementation, the controller receives indication information from a central controller to obtain the state of the current conversion device.

[0209] In the embodiments of the present application, the current conversion device can further include a detection module. Specifically, if the detection module detects that the alternating current power grid has lost power, the detection module sends first indication information to the controller. The controller determines that the alternating current power grid has lost power according to the first indication information, and that the current conversion device is in an off-grid state. If there are multiple current conversion devices in the power supply system, the detection module further sends second indication information to the central controller. The central controller sends the first indication information to the controller corresponding to each current conversion device, so that the controller of each current conversion device in the power supply system is switched from the current control mode to the voltage control mode.

[0210] Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of a power supply system 600 according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 6As shown, the power supply system 600 includes an energy storage system 610, a plurality of converter devices 620, an AC grid 630, a grid-connected switch 640, a central processor 650, a point of common coupling (PCC) 660, and a local load 670. The AC ends of the plurality of converter devices are connected in parallel at the PCC, and the DC ends are connected to the energy storage system. The PCC is connected to the local load, and the PCC is connected to the AC grid through the grid-connected switch. Further, the power supply system 600 can further include a filter, and each converter device corresponds to a filter, and the plurality of converter devices are connected in parallel at the PCC 160 through the filters to form a converter device cluster.

[0211] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, the converter device 620 is a converter device in the converter device cluster 620, and can realize the functions in 200-400. Figure 5

[0212] In some examples, the energy storage system includes a multi-battery system and / or a photovoltaic power generation unit.

[0213] In the embodiments of the present application, the central controller can communicate with the converter device, and can also communicate with the grid-connected switch. For example, if the above application scenario is a microgrid scenario, the central controller is a microgrid central controller; if the above application scenario is an energy storage power station scenario, the central controller is an energy storage power station controller.

[0214] The central processor can communicate with the grid-connected switch, and specifically, the grid-connected switch can accept the instructions of the system central controller to perform closing and opening actions. When the grid-connected switch identifies that the power grid loses power, it will actively open and notify the central controller.

[0215] The central processor can communicate with the plurality of converter devices, and specifically, the central controller can receive the island detection flag signal sent by each converter device. If the island detection flag signal of a certain converter device or certain converter devices shows that the converter device has determined that the power supply system is in an island state, the central controller rechecks the off-grid switch state and the island detection result. If the off-grid switch state is open or the island detection result shows that the power supply system is in an island state, the central controller sends a grid-connected / off-grid switching instruction to each converter device in the power supply system.

[0216] If the detection module in the converter device determines that the AC grid loses power, i.e., the power supply system is in an island state, or receives a grid-connected / off-grid switching instruction from the central controller, the converter device performs control switching. For specific switching methods, refer to the method 200, which will not be described here.

[0217] It should be understood that the converter device in the present application can be applied to a new energy microgrid or an electrochemical energy storage power station, and can also be applied to other fields. ​

[0218] Figure 7 is a flow chart of a control algorithm 700 of a central controller of an embodiment of the present application. For ease of description, the power conversion device in communication with the central controller is a PCS, such as Figure 7

[0219] S710: Determine whether there is a PCS uploading Switch_PCS=1. All PCSs upload their respective Switch_PCS signals to the central controller, which monitors and determines them in real time. If there is a PCS uploading Switch_PCS=1, step S720 is performed; if there is no PCS uploading Switch_PCS=1, step S710 is performed.

[0220] S720: Determine whether the grid switch state is open. If the Switch_PCS signal of a certain PCS is received as 1, island rechecking is performed, and whether the grid switch is in an open state is determined according to the state feedback of the grid switch. If the grid switch state is open, step S740 is performed; if the grid switch state is closed, step S730 is performed.

[0221] S730: Determine whether the central controller detects that the AC power grid is lost. If the Switch_PCS signal of a certain PCS is received as 1 and the grid switch is not open, it is determined whether the central controller detects that the AC power grid is lost. If the AC power grid is detected to be lost, step S740 is performed; if the AC power grid is not detected to be lost, step S710 is performed.

[0222] S740: Set the value of Switch_CC to 1 and send Switch_CC to each PCS in the power supply system. The central controller determines that the grid switch state is open or detects that the main grid is lost, and then determines that the power supply system needs to perform grid-off-grid switching, sets the value of Switch_CC to 1, and sends it to each PCS in the system. After each PCS detects that the value of Switch_CC jumps to 1, it will immediately perform grid-off-grid switching.

[0223] The above scheme avoids the failure of the overall cluster grid-off-grid switching due to the fact that the remaining PCSs cannot accurately determine the island state after some PCSs are converted to off-grid VCM operation first and the system reaches power balance.
