Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of grid-connected converter junction temperature control, and in particular relates to a method and a system for smoothing the junction temperature fluctuation of an IGBT module of a grid-connected converter. Background Art
[0002] The statements in this section merely provide background information related to the present invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.
[0003] The widespread application of power electronic devices benefits from the rapid development of technologies such as renewable energy generation, power transmission, and hybrid vehicles. With the continuous improvement of semiconductor chip manufacturing technology and the maturity of packaging technology, the power level and density of insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBT) are also increasing.
[0004] The grid-connected converter uses the pulse width modulation (SPWM) method to achieve power conversion. Due to the non-ideal conductive characteristics and switching characteristics of the power switching device, the switching device will generate power consumption during operation, resulting in an increase in junction temperature. The greater the power passing through the power switching device, the more heat is generated and the higher the junction temperature. When the IGBT operates under complex conditions such as high power density and cyclic load, its case temperature will rise rapidly, resulting in an increase in device temperature and rapid temperature fluctuations. Data show that thermal fatigue failure caused by material thermal fatigue damage or bonding wire shedding due to excessively high average junction temperature and junction temperature fluctuations accounts for 55% of the factors that cause damage to power switching devices, and is the main factor in damage to power switching devices.
[0005] However, the application of new energy power generation such as wind power and photovoltaic power is characterized by randomness, volatility and intermittency. Due to the frequent changes in input and output power, the average temperature inside the device rises more significantly and the temperature fluctuations become more severe, thereby increasing the risk of power module failure.
[0006] Therefore, in order to improve the stability of IGBT and reduce the operation and maintenance cost of the converter, it is an effective method to take active thermal management control measures, including power device loss calculation and real-time junction temperature monitoring. In this way, the working status of the device can be monitored and measures can be taken to control the temperature, thereby keeping the IGBT operating within a safe temperature range.
[0007] In the grid-connected converter of the renewable energy power generation system, low-frequency junction temperature fluctuations are usually related to changes in environmental conditions, such as wind force level and light intensity affecting input and output power and thus causing junction temperature changes, and air temperature changes directly causing junction temperature fluctuations, etc., and the fluctuation range of low-frequency junction temperature fluctuations is generally large. High-frequency junction temperature fluctuations are related to many factors such as sampling errors and control strategies, and the fluctuation range of high-frequency junction temperature fluctuations is generally small. The active thermal control methods of power devices can be roughly divided into external thermal control and internal thermal control. External thermal control is to add a heat sink outside the device to adjust the device's heat dissipation method and heat dissipation rate. Internal thermal control is to directly control the source of device heat generation, such as adjusting the device switching frequency, driving voltage, etc. Among them, the traditional method of adjusting the switching frequency to smooth junction temperature fluctuations has been widely used.
[0008] However, since the switching frequency is one of the main factors affecting the junction temperature, directly adjusting the switching frequency may cause unnecessary fluctuations or overshoot of the junction temperature. It is difficult to find a balance between speed and accuracy, and it is difficult to smooth both high-frequency and low-frequency junction temperature fluctuations. Summary of the invention
[0009] In order to overcome the deficiencies of the above-mentioned prior art, the present invention provides a method for smoothing the junction temperature fluctuation of the IGBT module of a grid-connected converter. The method of the present invention can reduce the junction temperature fluctuation amplitude while suppressing the increase of the average junction temperature without affecting the total harmonic distortion rate of the grid-connected current, thereby reducing the damage to the IGBT caused by the junction temperature increase and junction temperature fluctuation, and enhancing the reliability of the converter.

The modulation slope is subsequently calculated to generate a loss coefficient to participate in PWM modulation, which is used to smooth high-frequency junction temperature fluctuations with small amplitudes.
[0023] The average frequency of the smoothing loss control parameter PWM is calculated based on the size relationship between the high-frequency component and the high-frequency difference and the proportional limiting formula. The average frequency directly controls the average frequency of the output PWM and is used to smooth low-frequency junction temperature fluctuations with large amplitude.
[0024] As a further technical solution, it also includes a low-frequency difference judgment step to determine whether the low-frequency difference is less than or equal to 0 or greater than or equal to the set total loss. If neither of the two is satisfied, the low-frequency difference is within the adjustable range. If one of the two is satisfied, the low-frequency difference exceeds the adjustable range.
[0025] As a further technical solution, it also includes a high-frequency difference judgment step to judge whether the absolute value of the high-frequency difference is less than or equal to the set total loss. If it is satisfied, then f b No adjustment is required, f b Continue to maintain the last controlled value f pre If not, determine whether the high-frequency difference is less than the set total loss or greater than or equal to the difference between the theoretical maximum loss and the total loss that meet the fundamental frequency and envelope intercept conditions under the current junction temperature and output current conditions. If neither of the two conditions is met, the high-frequency difference is within the adjustable range. If one of the two conditions is met, the high-frequency difference exceeds the adjustable range.

The smoothing loss control parameter generation module runs once per second to generate an average frequency favg and a modulation slope k. Here, these two parameters generated in the previous second are received.
[0048] Among them, P ref_k Subtract P loss Get the high frequency loss difference ΔP k ;P ref_f Subtract P loss Get the low frequency loss difference ΔP f .
[0049] Step (2): Receive P ref_k , ΔP k , P ref_f , ΔP f Among them, according to P ref_k and ΔP k The smooth loss control parameter modulation slope k is calculated by the relationship between the size of P and the proportional limiting formula; ref_f and ΔP f The average frequency f of the smoothing loss control parameter PWM is calculated by the size relationship and proportional limit formula avg The modulation slope k is then calculated to generate the loss coefficient C s Participate in PWM modulation to smooth high-frequency junction temperature fluctuations with small amplitude; average frequency f avg Directly control the average frequency of the output PWM to smooth out large low-frequency junction temperature fluctuations.
[0050] It should be noted that the average frequency f avg It is not directly used as the switching frequency of pulse width modulation, but only as the average reference value of the switching frequency of pulse width modulation. In actual operation, it needs to be processed as in step (3-2) to obtain the actual switching frequency of pulse width modulation.
[0051] Step (3): Receive modulation slope k and average frequency f avg , the real-time phase θ generated by the grid voltage phase-locked subsystem and the sinusoidal modulation wave S generated by the current and voltage control subsystem. The modulation slope k and the real-time phase θ are calculated in each control cycle of the grid-connected converter microcontroller to obtain the loss coefficient C s Sinusoidal modulation wave S and loss coefficient C sThe value of the modulation wave is generated after calculation and transmitted to the comparison register of the pulse width modulation module of the grid-connected converter microcontroller. The average frequency f avg and loss coefficient C s The cycle count value of the carrier is generated through calculation and transmitted to the time base cycle register of the pulse width modulation module of the microcontroller of the grid-connected converter.
[0052] About the grid voltage phase-locked subsystem: The grid voltage is a sinusoidal waveform, and its phase changes periodically between 0-2*pi. The grid voltage phase-locked subsystem will calculate the phase of the grid voltage at the current moment based on the sampled grid voltage value.
[0053] Current and voltage control subsystem: It generates the corresponding sinusoidal modulation wave according to the sampled grid voltage and supplies it to the pulse width modulation module to generate PWM wave. The sinusoidal modulation wave generated by it is used here.
[0054] Step (4): Compare the value of the comparison register with the value of the time base period register to generate a PWM signal for controlling the operation of the inverter IGBT.
[0055] The control block diagram of step (1) is as follows Figure 2 As shown, the specific steps include:
[0056] Step (1-1): After receiving the real-time junction temperature of the IGBT sampled by the sampling subsystem, calculate the forward conduction voltage drop V of the IGBT at this time ce0 (T j ) and internal resistance r ce (T j ):

[0071] In this step, whether to smooth the high-frequency junction temperature fluctuation and whether the high-frequency junction temperature fluctuation can be smoothed are determined according to the value of the high-frequency loss difference.
[0072] Determine ΔP f Is the absolute value of less than or equal to 0.05P loss If it satisfies, then f avg No adjustment is required, f b Continue to maintain the last controlled value f pre, f pre f generated in the last second avg If not satisfied, judge ΔP f Is it less than -0.05P? loss Or greater than or equal to the theoretical maximum loss P that meets the fundamental frequency and envelope intercept conditions under the current junction temperature and output current conditions loss_max With P loss If neither of the two conditions is satisfied, that is, ΔP f If it is within the adjustable range, then go to step (2-2); if one of the two conditions is met, that is, ΔP f If it exceeds the adjustable range, go to step (2-3).
[0073] In the above, whether to smooth the low-frequency junction temperature fluctuation and whether the low-frequency junction temperature fluctuation can be smoothed are determined based on the value of the low-frequency loss difference.
[0074] Step (2-2): Calculate the value of the modulation slope k according to the ratio:
[0075]
[0076] where k max To control the maximum modulation slope allowed.
[0077] Calculate the average frequency f according to the ratio avg Values:
[0078]
[0079] where f min is the minimum IGBT switching frequency for the converter to meet the grid current harmonic standard, fmax is the rated maximum switching frequency of the IGBT.
[0080] Step (2-3): If ΔP k Less than or equal to 0, then
[0081] k=k max
[0082] If ΔP k Greater than or equal to 0.05P loss ,but
[0083] k=0
[0084] If ΔP f Less than -0.05P loss ,but
