Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of electronic equipment technology, and in particular to a control method for a voltage compensation device in a hybrid power distribution network. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of technology, the role of modern power distribution networks has evolved from simply distributing electricity to a platform encompassing multiple functions such as power transmission, distribution, storage, and trading, while also undertaking the responsibility of absorbing distributed energy resources. However, the generation capacity and load of distributed energy resources exhibit random characteristics, leading to frequent voltage fluctuations in the distribution network. This can even result in voltage amplitude exceeding limits both upwards and downwards within a single day, severely impacting the quality of power supply. Therefore, it is necessary to employ appropriate voltage compensation devices to compensate for voltage fluctuations in the distribution network.

[0003] Compared to conventional electromagnetic and power electronic voltage compensation devices, hybrid voltage compensation devices combine the advantages of both, achieving both cost minimization and efficiency maximization through reasonable capacity configuration. However, current control methods only support individual electromagnetic and power electronic voltage compensation devices. Therefore, research is needed on control methods for hybrid voltage compensation devices to enable their coordinated operation. Summary of the Invention

The multi-winding transformer is responsible for coarse adjustment of large capacity voltage compensation in the power distribution network process, while the UPFC is responsible for fine adjustment of small capacity voltage compensation. The control module includes an electromagnetic control strategy submodule, a power electronic control strategy submodule, and a compensation component generation submodule. In the control module control method, the compensation component generation submodule provides compensation voltage components to the electromagnetic and power electronic control strategy submodules.

[0018] When generating the compensation components, the control module first converts v... ar v br and v cr With v a1 v b1 and v c1 Subtracting them gives the difference v. ae v be and v ce Secondly, v ae v be and v ce The peak value divided by N+1 and rounded off gives D. a D b and D c Where N is the number of tap positions in each phase of a multi-winding transformer;

[0019] Based on the D obtained above a D b and D c By combining the relationship between the peak value of the phase voltage before the compensation point and the peak value of the rated voltage, the corresponding tap changer position can be selected.

[0051] Then G n The transfer functions of notch filters with center frequencies of 50Hz and 100Hz are shown in the following formulas.

[0052]

[0053] Where ω0 and ω c This indicates the grid angular frequency and the notch filter bandwidth;

[0054] G1 and G2 are proportional-integral controllers, and their transfer functions are shown in the following equation.

[0055]

[0056] Where k px and k ix (x = 1, 2) represents the proportionality coefficient and the integral coefficient;

[0057] G3 and G4 are proportional-quasi-resonant controllers, and their transfer functions are shown in the following equation.

[0058]

[0059] Where k px and k rx (x=3,4) represents the proportional coefficient and the resonance coefficient; K1 represents the turns ratio between the primary winding and the secondary winding connected to the three-phase rectifier in a multi-winding transformer; LM is the limiter;

[0060] When generating the compensation components, the control module first converts v... ar v br and vcr With v a1 v b1 and v c1 Subtracting them gives the difference v. ae v be and v ce Secondly, v ae v be and v ce The peak value divided by N+1 and rounded off gives D. a D b and D c Where N is the number of tap positions in each phase of a multi-winding transformer;

[0061] Based on the D obtained above a D b and D c By combining the relationship between the peak value of the phase voltage before the compensation point and the peak value of the rated voltage, the corresponding tap changer position can be selected.

[0062] Figure 2 This diagram illustrates the topology of the object to which this invention is applied. The excitation winding is connected in a star configuration to the medium-voltage distribution network requiring voltage compensation. Each phase's secondary winding comprises two windings, one connected to the input of the rectifier and the other a tapped winding. The three-phase secondary windings of the three-phase rectifier are connected in a star configuration. Three single-phase inverters are connected to the DC bus of the three-phase rectifier and distributed to the three-phase distribution network. The output of each inverter is connected in series with the tapped secondary winding of each phase in the multi-winding transformer, and then connected in parallel to the primary winding of a single-phase transformer. The secondary winding of this transformer is connected to the distribution network in series.

[0063] To verify the compensation effect of the device, a simulation model of a medium-voltage distribution network was built using MATLAB / Simulink simulation software. The effectiveness of the control method provided by this invention is verified through two sets of comparative experiments. The first set only performs phase voltage compensation of the distribution network, while the second set performs both phase voltage compensation and three-phase imbalance compensation.

[0064] The results of the first group of experiments are as follows: Figures 3 to 5 As shown, from Figure 3 It can be seen that the current on the AC side of the rectifier is three-phase balanced. This is because three-phase imbalance compensation was not performed in this experiment. Figure 3 The peak current shown is -64A, which is due to Figure 2 The standard specifies that the positive direction of the AC current on the rectifier side is from the rectifier to the transformer. However, in this experiment, the rectifier operates in rectification mode, therefore the current is negative. Figure 4It can be observed that without compensation, the peak voltage of the distribution network is only 6670V, lower than the rated peak voltage of 8165V, while the peak currents of the three-phase distribution network are 87.9A, 79.8A, and 75.8A respectively, indicating a clear imbalance in the three-phase load; from Figure 5 It can be seen that after compensation by the hybrid distribution network voltage compensation device, the peak voltage of the distribution network has been restored to the rated value, thus verifying the effectiveness of the device and control method.

[0065] The results of the second group of experiments are as follows: Figures 6 to 8 As shown, this group of experiments added three-phase imbalance compensation control, from Figure 6 It can be observed that the current on the AC side of the rectifier is in a three-phase unbalanced state. This is due to the three-phase unbalance compensation control implemented by the rectifier. Figure 7 The peak currents of the three-phase distribution network changed to 83.8A, 80.9A, and 78.5A respectively. Compared with the first group, it can be seen that the three-phase load imbalance of the distribution network has been improved, thus verifying the effectiveness of the three-phase imbalance compensation control in the control method proposed in this invention. The incomplete compensation of the three-phase imbalance is due to the rectifier capacity limitation. Furthermore, similar to the first group of experiments, from... Figure 8 It can be seen that after compensation by the hybrid distribution network voltage compensation device, the voltage peak of the distribution network also returned to the rated value, which once again verified the effectiveness of the device and control method.

Any changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, or simplifications made without departing from the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be considered equivalent substitutions and shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.

Various modifications and improvements made by those skilled in the art to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit of the present invention should fall within the protection scope defined by the claims of the present invention.
