Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of inertia assessment, specifically relating to a method for assessing the equivalent inertia of inertia response load taking into account RoCoF. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, the proportion of new energy sources in my country has been continuously increasing. Traditional synchronous generators are gradually being replaced, while new energy sources connected to the grid via converters decouple power and frequency, leading to a gradual decrease in the power system's inertia level. When a low-inertia system experiences a fault, it is highly susceptible to a rapid drop in system frequency, a deterioration in the RoCoF index, exceeding the response capabilities of various frequency control and recovery measures, and ultimately resulting in a grid-wide collapse. RoCoF has become an important indicator for evaluating the operational safety of the power grid after a fault. Summary of the Invention

[0021] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0022] Please see Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a method for evaluating the equivalent inertia of the inertia response load (IRL) taking into account RoCoF, including the following steps:
[0023] Step 1: First, establish an IRL response model considering RoCoF, and then establish a power system frequency response model with IRL participation based on the IRL response model.
[0024] The process of establishing the IRL response model for RoCoF includes:
[0025] The IRL response model divides the action threshold into n equally spaced levels, such as Figure 2 As shown, at RoCoF values of |df / dt|1, |df / dt|2, ..., |df / dt| n When to engage in action. Figure 2 The middle vertical axis represents the IRL response quantity ΔP L The horizontal axis represents different RoCoF response threshold levels |df / dt|. When RoCoF is detected to be lower than the set value (indicating an active power deficit in the power system), the grid-connected IRL will automatically disconnect the power supply for a period of time to prevent the grid frequency from dropping too quickly. The IRL response is positively correlated with the detected RoCoF. Since RoCoF is usually maximum at the beginning of the fault and then gradually decreases, the IRL response is also maximum at the beginning of the fault. When the inertial response phase ends and the system enters primary frequency regulation, the IRL also gradually decreases as RoCoF decreases, eventually fully recovering operation. The IRL response model expression is as follows:
[0026]
[0027] In the formula, n is the total number of action thresholds in the IRL response model; ΔP L The value of the IRL response is denoted by ; m represents any threshold value in the action threshold range; P L This represents the maximum response size of the IRL.
[0028] Based on the IRL response model, the specific response process is as follows:
[0029] 1) In the initial stage of a fault, |df / dt| is extremely large. After the fault, a certain response time margin needs to be reserved for the IRL. Therefore, when the grid's |df / dt| is detected to be greater than |df / dt|, n When this happens, a short response delay is allowed for the IRL, during which the response quantity is 0;
[0030] 2) As RoCoF gradually decreases, when the detected grid |df / dt| is lower than the threshold |df / dt| in the response strategy... m When (1≤m≤n-1), the IRL starts providing a size of mP. L / n response;
[0031] 3) When RoCoF drops to |df / dt|0, power on all IRLs and they start working. At this point, the IRLs no longer provide a response, and RoCoF will approach 0, ending the inertia response phase.
[0032] The process of establishing a power system frequency response model with the participation of IRL includes:
[0033] The ultimate goal of IRL's participation in inertial response is to achieve coordinated control of RoCoF by load-side and generator-side inertial response resources. Therefore, the established inertial response model needs to simultaneously include the inertial response components of both the IRL and the synchronous machine. The traditional power system frequency response (SFR) model expression is as follows:
[0034]
[0035] In the formula, F H T is the reheat coefficient; R D is the time constant of the reheat generator unit; H is the damping factor; K is the inertial constant; m The mechanical power gain factor is Δω(s); the frequency deviation in the Laplace domain is Δω(s); P step (s) represents the system power deficit.
[0036] Based on the established IRL response model considering RoCoF, the discrete response strategy is transformed into a continuous response strategy through linear fitting. The fitted IRL response model is expressed as follows:
[0037] ΔP L (s)=k L sΔω(s)
[0038] In the formula, k L This represents the slope corresponding to the IRL response strategy.
[0039] By incorporating the fitted IRL into the SFR model, we can obtain the SFR model involving the IRL, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the model is specifically expressed as follows:
[0040]
[0041] Step 2: Then, based on the power system frequency response model with IRL participation established in Step 1, establish the power system frequency response model inertia evaluation model with IRL participation. Finally, based on the established power system frequency response model inertia evaluation model with IRL participation, establish the IRL equivalent inertia evaluation model.
[0042] The total inertia of the system can be calculated by the ratio of the system disturbance power to the RoCoF at a certain moment of the disturbance. Therefore, in the SFR model involving IRL, the system inertia is evaluated, and the equivalent inertia evaluation model is established as follows:
[0043]
[0044] In the formula, RoCoF max The RoCoF value at a certain moment is a perturbation; f N The standard frequency is 50Hz; H sysThe total inertia of the SFR model system involving IRL; ΔP step This represents a system power deficit. In the system RoCoF... max To match the power deficit ΔP in the power grid step Given that the equivalent inertial constant H of the system is... sys It can be calculated.
[0045] Given that the inertia of the synchronous generator in the system is known, the equivalent inertia H of the IRL can be obtained using the following formula. L Size:
[0046]
[0047] In the formula, Q sys Total system capacity; Let I be the capacity of the i-th synchronous generator in the system; I is the total number of generators in the system. The inertial constant of the i-th synchronous generator in the system; Q L H represents the grid-connected capacity of the IRL in the system. L It is the equivalent inertial constant of IRL.
[0048] Based on the established power system frequency response model inertia assessment model involving IRL, the parameter H can be obtained. sys The size, and at the same time in parameter Q sys , Q L Given that everything is known, the IRL equivalent inertia evaluation model can be obtained, as follows:
[0049]
[0050] To verify the accuracy of the IRL equivalent inertia assessment method proposed in this invention and its applicability to existing thermal power unit inertia measurement systems, two models are set up for simulation comparison, as shown in Table 1:
[0051] Table 1. Design of Two Comparative Models
[0052]
[0053] Ensure that the total system inertia of Model 1 and Model 2 in Table 1 is the same, where the IRL equivalent inertia H in Model 2 is... L The evaluation method proposed in this invention is used to obtain the results. If the two models have the same RoCoF under the same power grid fault scenario and within the same observation time window, it proves that the IRL equivalent inertia evaluation method is accurate. The comparison results obtained by the two models are shown in Table 2.
[0054] Table 2. RoCoF error considering the IRL equivalent inertia assessment method
[0055]
[0056] Table 2 shows the effects of two models with different system inertia on the RoCoF index under the same fault scenario, as well as the RoCoF error considering the IRL equivalent inertia assessment method. As can be seen from Table 2, in the SFR+IRL model using the IRL equivalent inertia assessment method, the simulation RoCoF error is less than 1% compared to the SFR model. Therefore, the IRL equivalent inertia assessment method proposed in this invention can be incorporated into the existing thermal power unit inertia measurement system and has high accuracy.
