[0020] In the field of wind power generation, grid-connected wind turbines refer to wind turbine units that use grid-connected control methods to achieve synchronization with the power grid. Their external characteristics are similar to those of a voltage source, hence they are also called "voltage source wind turbines." Grid-following wind turbines refer to wind turbine units that use phase-locked loops to monitor the grid phase to achieve synchronization with the power grid. Their external characteristics are similar to those of a current source, hence they are also called "current source wind turbines."

[0021] In wind power generation using voltage source (i.e., grid-connected) wind turbines, when a low-voltage fault is detected in the grid, the control mode of the grid-side converter is typically switched from voltage source control mode to current source (i.e., grid-connected) control mode. Then, when the low-voltage fault ends, it switches back from current source control mode to voltage source control mode. Thus, during a low-voltage fault, the wind turbine exhibits current source characteristics externally, unable to provide strength support to the power system. Furthermore, this control method is not feasible in islanded application scenarios.

[0022] In view of the difficulties in the existing technology, this invention proposes a converter control strategy for voltage source wind turbines, which can be executed during low voltage faults in the power grid. Under the premise of ensuring that the wind turbine does not disconnect from the grid abnormally, it can make full use of the effective capacity of the wind turbine to improve the transient stability of the power system.

[0030] Figure 1 This is a voltage source control block diagram of a grid-side converter according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0031] like Figure 1As shown, the grid-side converter 101 of the wind turbine can adopt a voltage source control strategy. The grid-side converter 101 is connected to the power grid 102. In the control module of the grid-side converter 101, the synchronization unit 103 outputs the angular frequency and phase angle θ of the virtual internal potential. p The reactive power / voltage control unit 104 outputs the amplitude U of the virtual internal potential. p Then, having angular frequency and phase angle θ p and amplitude U p The virtual internal potential is input to the current command generation stage 105. The current command generation stage 105 uses virtual impedance for control. The virtual internal potential is applied to the virtual impedance, and the virtual internal potential divided by the virtual impedance yields the output virtual current command. The virtual current command is then limited by the selectable current command limiter 106. Finally, after current closed-loop processing by the current loop 107 and modulation processing by SVPWM (Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation) 108, voltage source control of the grid-side converter 101 is achieved.

[0032] In this way, voltage source control of the wind turbine can be achieved, that is, a voltage source type wind turbine can be realized. The converter control method according to this disclosure can be used to control grid-side converters, but this disclosure is not limited to this and can also be applied to the control of other types of converters.

[0033] Figure 2 This is a flowchart of a converter control method for a voltage source type wind turbine according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0034] A grid low-voltage fault can be identified when the grid-side voltage of the converter is too low (e.g., less than or equal to a predetermined grid-side voltage threshold). To avoid the series of problems caused by grid low-voltage faults, converter control needs to be performed in voltage source control mode without switching to current source control mode.

[0035] For example, in response to the grid-side voltage of the converter being less than or equal to a predetermined grid-side voltage threshold, the amplitude and angular frequency of the virtual internal potential associated with the converter are maintained at steady-state amplitude and steady-state angular frequency, respectively, wherein the virtual internal potential is used to control the converter.

[0036] like Figure 2 As shown, it can be determined whether the grid-side voltage of the converter is less than or equal to a predetermined voltage threshold by monitoring the grid-side voltage of the converter (step S21). In embodiments of this disclosure, the predetermined grid-side voltage threshold may be determined based on the rated grid-side voltage and is less than the rated grid-side voltage, for example, 0.9 times or less of the rated grid-side voltage.

[0037] In response to the grid-side voltage of the converter being less than or equal to a predetermined grid-side voltage threshold, the amplitude and angular frequency of the virtual internal potential associated with the converter are maintained at steady-state amplitude and steady-state angular frequency, respectively (step S22), wherein the virtual internal potential is used to control the converter. As shown above, the voltage source control of the converter is achieved using the virtual internal potential.

[0038] In embodiments of this disclosure, the steady-state amplitude and steady-state angular frequency can be the amplitude and angular frequency of the virtual internal potential when the grid-side voltage is within the steady-state grid-side voltage range, respectively, where the steady-state grid-side voltage range is higher than a predetermined grid-side voltage threshold. For example, the predetermined grid-side voltage threshold is 0.9 times the rated grid-side voltage, and the steady-state grid-side voltage range is greater than 0.9 times the rated grid-side voltage and less than 1.1 times the rated grid-side voltage. In other words, the steady-state grid-side voltage range can include the grid-side voltage under normal grid operation conditions, and the steady-state amplitude and steady-state angular frequency can represent the amplitude and angular frequency under normal operation conditions before or during a grid low-voltage fault. Thus, by locking the steady-state amplitude and steady-state angular frequency, it is possible to prevent low-voltage faults from causing the various control components of the wind turbine to malfunction under normal conditions.

[0039] After locking the steady-state amplitude and steady-state angular frequency, the virtual impedance to which the virtual internal potential is applied can be adjusted according to the grid-side voltage and the virtual internal potential (step S23).

[0040] In embodiments of this disclosure, the virtual impedance can be adjusted based on a target virtual impedance value determined according to the grid-side voltage and the virtual internal potential. The following will combine... Figure 3 Describe it.

[0041] Figure 3 This is a flowchart of a converter control method for a voltage source type wind turbine according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0042] like Figure 3 As shown, when adjusting the virtual impedance to which the virtual internal potential is applied based on the grid-side voltage and the virtual internal potential, the target value of the virtual impedance can be determined based on the grid-side voltage, the virtual internal potential and the maximum withstand current of the converter (step S31).

[0043] For example, the virtual impedance target value can be calculated according to the following formula (1):

[0044]

[0045] Among them, R v X represents the virtual resistance. v U represents virtual reactance. p and θ p U represents the magnitude and phase (i.e., phase angle) of the virtual internal potential, respectively. g and θg These represent the amplitude and phase of the voltage at the wind turbine's grid connection point, respectively; I MAX This indicates the maximum withstand current value of the converter.

[0046] After determining the target value of the virtual impedance, the virtual impedance can be adjusted according to the target value (step S32).

[0047] Due to faults such as a drop in grid voltage, the wind turbine's output current increases rapidly. The current indicated by the grid-side current command may reach the upper limit of the limiting circuit, i.e., the upper limit of the predetermined current range. At this time, the wind turbine will exhibit current source characteristics. In order to enable the wind turbine to overcome the low-voltage fault with voltage source characteristics, it is necessary to adjust control parameters such as virtual impedance to reduce the current indicated by the grid-side current command, so that the grid-side current command exits the limiting state.

[0048] For example, after adjusting the virtual impedance to which the virtual internal potential is applied based on the grid-side voltage and the virtual internal potential, the virtual impedance can be adjusted according to the grid-side current command of the converter so that the amplitude of the grid-side current is within a predetermined current range.

[0049] Figure 4 This is a flowchart of a converter control method for a voltage source type wind turbine according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0050] like Figure 4 As shown, the grid-side current command of the converter can be obtained (step S41). For example, the grid-side current command can be obtained from the converter's controller. During the converter's control process, the converter's controller outputs a grid-side current command to the converter so that the converter outputs current according to the grid-side current command. However, the current indicated by the grid-side current command may exceed the converter's maximum withstand current value, causing the grid-side current command to be in a "limited state". To remove the grid-side current command from the limited state, the virtual impedance needs to be adjusted.

[0051] Therefore, according to the grid-side current command of the converter, the virtual impedance is adjusted so that the amplitude of the grid-side current is within a predetermined current range (step S42). In embodiments of this disclosure, the upper limit of the predetermined current range can be the maximum withstand current value of the converter. For example, the maximum withstand current value can be more than one times the rated grid-side current.

[0052] Furthermore, the lower limit of the predetermined current range can be determined based on the upper limit of the current and the predetermined current margin. For example, the difference between the upper limit of the current and the lower limit of the predetermined current range can be less than or equal to the predetermined current margin, which can be determined based on the rated grid-side current. For example, the predetermined current margin can be 0.02 times or less of the rated grid-side current.

[0053] As mentioned above, by adjusting the virtual impedance according to the grid-side current command of the converter, the amplitude of the grid-side current can be ensured to be within a predetermined current range. The following section combines... Figure 5 Further describe how to adjust the virtual impedance.

[0054] Figure 5 This is a flowchart of a converter control method for a voltage source type wind turbine according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0055] like Figure 5 As shown, it can be determined whether the current indicated by the grid-side current command is greater than the upper limit of the predetermined current range (step S51).

[0056] In practical applications, due to deviations introduced by sampling and control processes, the grid-side current command may remain in a shallowly limited state (e.g., the current value indicated by the grid-side current command (e.g., 1.22 times the rated grid-side current) is slightly greater than the converter's maximum withstand current (e.g., 1.2 times the rated grid-side current)) or a deeply limited state (e.g., the current value indicated by the grid-side current command (e.g., 3 times the rated grid-side current) is much greater than the converter's maximum withstand current (e.g., 1.2 times the rated grid-side current)). Therefore, the virtual impedance needs to be further adjusted based on whether the grid-side current command is in a limited state.

[0057] When adjusting the virtual impedance, the virtual impedance can be increased or decreased according to a predetermined slope. In embodiments of this disclosure, the predetermined slope represents a ramp-like slope rather than a step-like slope to avoid the virtual impedance changing too rapidly. For example, the predetermined range can be greater than zero and less than or equal to a predetermined slope value.

[0058] If it is determined that the current indicated by the grid-side current command is greater than the upper limit of the predetermined current range, the virtual impedance can be increased at a slope within the predetermined range (step S53). By slowly increasing the virtual impedance, the current value indicated by the grid-side current command or the amplitude of the grid-side current is reduced, thereby causing the grid-side current to exit the limiting state. When it is determined that the current indicated by the grid-side current command is less than or equal to the upper limit of the predetermined current range, the next step can be executed.

[0059] Further, it can be determined whether the current indicated by the grid-side current command is less than the lower limit of a predetermined current range (step S52). If it is determined that the current indicated by the grid-side current command is less than the upper limit of a predetermined current range, the virtual impedance can be reduced according to the slope of a predetermined range (step S54). By slowly reducing the virtual impedance, the current value indicated by the grid-side current command or the amplitude of the grid-side current is increased, thereby improving the short-circuit current level.

[0060] During low-voltage grid faults, wind turbines must be able to provide a large short-circuit current to support the fault; therefore, it is necessary to maximize the utilization of turbine capacity. Consequently, the virtual impedance needs to be adjusted based on grid-side current commands and a lower current limit determined by a predetermined current margin to enhance grid strength support.

[0061] Thus, by adjusting the virtual impedance, the current indicated by the grid-side current command can be kept within a predetermined current range; that is, the amplitude of the grid-side current can be kept within a predetermined current range. This part of the processing can end when it is determined that the current indicated by the grid-side current command is greater than or equal to the upper limit of the predetermined current range.

[0062] The following is combined with Figure 6 and Figure 7 A converter control device and control equipment are described that can perform the converter control method described above.
