Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of DC converter modeling, and more specifically, relates to a method for modeling the input impedance of an ISOP-DAB type DC transformer. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of power electronics technology and the soaring demand for new energy grid connection, medium and low voltage DC distribution systems are gradually becoming a hot topic in future power grid architecture. DC transformers are widely used in DC distribution networks, primarily to connect medium-voltage and low-voltage DC buses to achieve bidirectional power flow conversion. However, in long-distance distribution lines, the interaction between the input impedance of the DC transformer and the non-negligible equivalent impedance on the distribution line can lead to weak damping or oscillations in the system. In other words, the input impedance characteristics of the DC transformer during operation are crucial to the stable operation of the DC distribution network under steady-state conditions.

[0003] The input impedance model of a DC transformer is the basis for analyzing system stability and the theoretical support for system stability optimization. For input-series output-parallel dual-active bridge (ISOP-DAB) DC transformers, existing input impedance modeling methods still have the following shortcomings: ① The actual control quantity of the DAB is the phase shift angle. Existing models of ISOP-DAB are all based on the phase shift angle, only considering the impedance modeling problem of each submodule operating under single-phase-shift modulation. Different modulation methods and operating conditions will correspond to different phase shift angles, failing to address impedance modeling problems under other modulation methods such as double-phase shift and extended phase shift, thus lacking model universality; ② The generalized average modeling method using state variables involves complex matrix transformations, resulting in large computational loads and a complex process; ③ The modeling process only retains the first-order components after Fourier decomposition, making it difficult to guarantee the accuracy of the model. Therefore, the input impedance modeling problem of ISOP-DAB DC transformers urgently needs to be solved. Summary of the Invention

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of this invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0039] In this invention, the terms "first," "second," etc. (if present) in the invention and the accompanying drawings are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.

[0040] Figure 1 A flowchart illustrating the input impedance modeling method for an ISOP-DAB type DC transformer provided in this embodiment of the invention. (See also...) Figure 1 , combined Figures 2-4The input impedance modeling method of the ISOP-DAB type DC transformer in this embodiment is described in detail. The method includes operations S1-S5.

[0041] Operation S1 establishes a small-signal model of the DC bus input current and a small-signal model of the total output current of the transformer, using the power of each DAB submodule in the transformer as a parameter.

[0042] See Figure 2 The topology of the ISOP-DAB type DC transformer (hereinafter referred to as the transformer) includes: a medium-voltage side DC voltage source V DC It has an equivalent reactance L BUS and equivalent resistance R BUS The medium-voltage side input bus, M (M≥2) DAB submodules (SM) connected by ISOP type connection structure, and the low-voltage side filter capacitor C o and equivalent load resistance R o Among them, M DAB submodules are connected in series at the medium-voltage side port and in parallel at the low-voltage side load port.

[0044] Based on the direct power control principle of DAB and the current source characteristics of DAB, the input current i of each DAB submodule of the ISOP-DAB type DC transformer is... in_j and output current i o_j The per-unit transmission power p of this submodule pu_j Proportional. For each DAB submodule in the transformer, based on its per-unit transmission power p pu_j Establish its input current i in_j Output current i o_j The model:

[0047] Furthermore, small-signal perturbation processing is applied to formulas (1)-(2) to obtain the input current i. in_j Output current i o_j Small signal model:

[0048]

[0049]

[0050] Since the output sides of the ISOP-DAB are connected in parallel, its total output current is the sum of the output currents of each DAB submodule. Based on formula (4), a small-signal model of the total output current of the transformer is established:

[0051]

[0052] in, This is the small signal of the transformer's total output current. Let G be the small signal of the output current of the j-th DAB submodule, M be the number of DAB submodules in the transformer, and G be the small signal of the output current of the j-th DAB submodule. pio_sub This is the transfer function between the per-unit transmitted power and the output current of the DAB submodule. G is the small signal of the per-unit transmission power of the j-th DAB submodule. vi The transfer function between the output voltage and input current of the DAB submodule. Let G be the small signal of the input voltage of the j-th DAB submodule. It should be noted that G... vi It is also the transfer function between the input voltage and output current of the DAB submodule.

[0053] On the input series side, the total input bus current i bus It can be expressed as the sum of the input current of any DAB submodule and the charging current of its input capacitor. Therefore, based on formula (3), a small-signal model of the DC bus input current is established:

[0054]

[0055] The small-signal model of the DC bus input current can be further extended to:

[0056]

[0057] By summing and averaging equation (7), an average small-signal model of the DC bus input current can be established, which serves as the final small-signal model of the DC bus input current:

[0059] in, A small signal for the DC bus input current. Let be the small signal of the input current of the j-th DAB submodule. G represents the small signal of the current on the input capacitor of the j-th DAB submodule. piin This is the transfer function between the per-unit transmitted power and the input current of the DAB submodule. Z represents the small signal of the transformer's total output voltage. C This is the equivalent impedance of the input capacitor.

[0060] Operation S2 establishes the first small-signal model of the sum of power commands of all DAB submodules and the second small-signal model of the sum of input voltages of all DAB submodules.

[0061] In this embodiment, a small-signal model of the power command for each DAB submodule is established:

[0062]

[0063] Furthermore, based on formula (9), the first small signal model is established:

[0064]

[0065] in, This is the transfer function of the output voltage closed-loop controller. This is the transfer function of the input equalization closed-loop controller.

[0066] Since the input sides of the ISOP-DAB are connected in series, the total input voltage is the sum of the input voltages of all DAB submodules. The established second small-signal model is as follows:

[0067]

[0068] Operation S3 substitutes the first and second small-signal models into the transformer total output current small-signal model to update it, and establishes the transformer total output voltage small-signal model based on the updated transformer total output current small-signal model.

[0069] Substituting formulas (10)-(11) into formula (5) updates the small-signal model of the total output current of the transformer. The updated small-signal model of the total output current of the transformer is as follows:

[0070]

[0071] in, For the small signal of the updated transformer's total output current, G is the small signal of the DC bus input voltage. pio This is the transfer function between the per-unit transmitted power and the total output current of the DAB submodule.

[0072] Since the output voltage of ISOP-DAB is the sum of the output current and the open-loop output impedance Z, out The product of , then, according to formula (12), establish the small-signal model of the total output voltage of the transformer:

[0073]

[0074] Among them, Z out This is the open-loop output impedance.

[0075] Operation S4: Based on the small-signal model of the total output voltage of the transformer, derive the small-signal model of the input voltage of the DC bus.

[0076] Based on formula (13), the small-signal model of the DC bus input voltage is derived:

[0077]

[0078] Operation S5 calculates the ratio of the small-signal model of the DC bus input voltage to the small-signal model of the DC bus input current, thus obtaining the input impedance model of the transformer.

[0079] Based on the ratio of formula (14) and formula (8), the input impedance model of the transformer is obtained:

[0080]

[0081] Among them, Z in_ISOP G is the input impedance of the transformer. pio This is the transfer function between the per-unit transmitted power and the total output current of the DAB submodule.

[0082] The specific definitions of parameters such as the transfer function used in the above formula are as follows:

[0083] Z out = R o / (R o C o s+1) (16)

[0084] G piin = NV o / 8f s L t (17)

[0085] G vi = NP pu / 8f s L t (18)

[0086] G pio_sub = NV bus / 8Mf s L t (19)

[0087] G pio = NV bus / 8f s L t (20)

[0088] Z c = 1 / sC in (twenty one)

[0089] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the method further includes: establishing an equivalent small-signal control model of the transformer based on the small-signal model of the transformer's total output voltage and the small-signal model of the DC bus input current. Specifically, based on formulas (8) and (13), an equivalent small-signal control model of the transformer is established as follows: Figure 4 The equivalent small-signal control model shown is based on, for example, Figure 4 The equivalent small-signal control model shown controls the ISOP-DAB type DC transformer.

[0090] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the ISOP-DAB type DC transformer can be controlled based on the input impedance model obtained above to achieve DC-DC conversion under various modulation methods and operating conditions.
