Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of new energy grid connection technology, and in particular to a coordinated inertia response control method and system for offshore low-frequency wind power systems. Background Technology
[0002] With the strategic goal of "carbon neutrality and carbon peaking" being proposed, offshore wind power has received widespread attention and is playing an increasingly important role in my country's clean energy system. Large-scale transmission of offshore wind power is a prerequisite for the rapid development of the wind power industry. Compared to current flexible DC transmission systems, offshore low-frequency wind power systems improve transmission efficiency by reducing the transmission frequency. Furthermore, offshore low-frequency wind power systems only require the construction of onshore converter stations to transmit the generated electricity to the onshore power grid, saving construction costs and providing an efficient and feasible solution for grid connection of offshore wind power.
[0003] However, in offshore low-frequency wind power systems, due to the presence of the onshore converter station M3C and the back-to-back converters of the wind turbines, the low-frequency frequency of the offshore low-frequency wind power system is decoupled from the onshore power grid frequency. Under normal rated wind speed, the wind turbines always operate in maximum power point tracking mode. When the grid frequency is disturbed, the offshore low-frequency wind farm cannot actively provide frequency support for the onshore power grid. Furthermore, the overall inertia level of the system is reduced due to the large-scale wind power integration, which seriously affects the stability of the system frequency. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention provides a coordinated inertia response control method and system for offshore low-frequency wind power systems, effectively solving the problems in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this invention is: a coordinated inertia response control method for offshore low-frequency wind power systems, comprising the following steps:
[0006] Step 1: Based on the frequency response model of the offshore low-frequency wind power system, analyze the influence of the system inertia level on the frequency response and the dynamic characteristics of the DC capacitor of the onshore converter station M3C. Based on the analysis results of the influence of the inertia level on the frequency response and the dynamic characteristics of the DC capacitor, determine the virtual inertia control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C. The offshore low-frequency wind power system includes an offshore low-frequency wind farm, the onshore converter station M3C and the onshore power grid connected in sequence. The onshore converter station M3C is decoupled into the power frequency side and the low-frequency side for separate control.
[0007] Step 2: Detect the current frequency of the onshore power grid. The power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C executes inertia response based on the current frequency of the onshore power grid and in combination with the virtual inertia control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C.
[0008] Step 3: Based on the inertial response results executed by the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C uses the frequency conversion control strategy of the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C to transmit the frequency change information of the onshore power frequency grid to the offshore low-frequency wind farm.
[0009] Step 4: The offshore low-frequency wind farm executes inertial response based on the frequency change information of the onshore power grid and the virtual inertial control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C, and together with the onshore converter station M3C, provides frequency support for the onshore power grid.
[0010] Furthermore, the offshore low-frequency wind farm is composed of permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbine units, which include wind turbines, synchronous generators, and back-to-back converters.
[0011] The back-to-back converter is formed by connecting a machine-side converter and a grid-side converter back-to-back. The machine-side converter is connected to the wind turbine, and the wind turbine directly drives the rotor of the synchronous generator through the rotation of the rotor. The electrical energy generated by the synchronous generator is controlled and regulated by the machine-side converter. The machine-side converter controls the rotor speed of the wind turbine to maintain the optimal tip speed ratio for maximum wind energy capture. The grid-side converter is connected to the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C. The grid-side converter realizes the effective power delivery of the permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbine through a constant DC capacitor voltage.
[0012] Furthermore, in step 1, the onshore power frequency grid consists of synchronous generator sets and active and reactive loads, and the synchronous generator sets in the onshore power frequency grid are connected to the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C.
[0013] Furthermore, in step 1, the onshore converter station M3C decouples and converts the power frequency side and the low frequency side for separate control, specifically as follows:
[0014] The power frequency side control of the onshore converter station M3C adopts a constant DC capacitor voltage control method. The control objective of the constant DC capacitor voltage control method is to keep the total DC capacitor voltage of the onshore converter station M3C constant and to perform reactive power interaction with the onshore power frequency grid.
[0015] The low-frequency side control of the onshore converter station M3C adopts a VF control mode with constant AC voltage amplitude and frequency. The VF control mode with constant AC voltage amplitude and frequency actively establishes the low-frequency AC power supply for the offshore low-frequency wind farm.
[0016] Furthermore, in step 2, the determination of the virtual inertia control strategy for the onshore converter station M3C is as follows:
[0017] Based on the dynamic characteristic analysis results of the DC capacitor of the onshore converter station M3C, the dynamic characteristics of the DC capacitor of the onshore converter station M3C are compared with the rotor motion equation of the synchronous generator set in the onshore power frequency grid. Based on the comparison results of the rotor motion equation, the virtual inertia control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C is determined.
[0018] Furthermore, in step 2, the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C performs an inertial response based on the current frequency of the onshore power grid and in conjunction with the virtual inertial control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C, specifically as follows:
[0019] Based on the virtual inertia control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C, a droop control method for DC capacitor voltage is designed.
[0020] By detecting the current frequency of the onshore power grid, the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C performs inertial response based on the current frequency of the onshore power grid, combined with the droop control mode of the DC capacitor voltage, and by utilizing the energy stored in the DC capacitor in the onshore converter station M3C.
[0021] Furthermore, in step 3, the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, based on the inertial response results executed by the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, transmits the frequency change information of the onshore power grid to the offshore low-frequency wind farm through the frequency conversion control strategy of the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, specifically:
[0022] Based on the virtual inertia response results of the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, the onshore converter station M3C introduces a droop control mode, and performs frequency conversion control in combination with the frequency conversion control strategy of the low frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C.
[0023] The frequency converter control on the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C is used to adjust the output frequency on the power frequency side, so that the frequency changes of the onshore converter station M3C and the onshore power frequency grid are synchronized, frequency matching is achieved, and the coupling relationship between the low-frequency frequency of the offshore low-frequency wind power system and the power frequency frequency of the onshore power frequency grid is established.
[0024] Furthermore, the power frequency side virtual inertia response result of the onshore converter station M3C includes the current DC voltage amplitude of the onshore converter station M3C;
[0025] The current DC voltage amplitude of the onshore converter station M3C is detected. Based on the current DC voltage amplitude of the onshore converter station M3C and the reference value of the differential element, the voltage deviation of the reference value is determined.
[0026] The required adjustment amount is calculated based on the voltage deviation of the reference value. The low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C performs frequency conversion control based on the required adjustment amount and the frequency conversion control strategy of the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, changing the frequency of the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C so that the low-frequency side frequency can directly follow the frequency of the onshore power grid, realizing the transmission of frequency information.
[0027] Furthermore, in step 4, the offshore low-frequency wind farm executes an inertial response based on the frequency change information of the onshore power grid obtained from the onshore power grid, combined with the virtual inertial control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C, and together with the onshore converter station M3C, provides frequency support for the onshore power grid. This includes: the permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbine units in the offshore low-frequency wind farm execute the inertial response of the offshore low-frequency wind farm based on the frequency change information of the onshore power grid obtained from the offshore low-frequency wind farm, through the virtual inertial control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C, so as to jointly provide frequency support for the onshore power grid with the onshore converter station M3C.
[0028] Furthermore, the permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbines in offshore low-frequency wind farms, based on the frequency change information of the onshore power grid obtained from the offshore low-frequency wind farm, execute the inertial response of the offshore low-frequency wind farm through the virtual inertial control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C, so as to jointly provide frequency support for the onshore power grid with the onshore converter station M3C. Specifically:
[0029] In offshore low-frequency wind farms, permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbines use phase-locked loop (PLL) technology to detect the current frequency of the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C. By comparing the detected current frequency of the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C with the preset frequency, the low-frequency deviation is obtained.
[0030] Based on the virtual inertia control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C, and by introducing the proportional relationship of the droop control loop, the low-frequency deviation is converted and calculated to obtain the required additional power value.
[0031] Based on the calculated additional power value, the control system of the offshore low-frequency wind farm adjusts the active power output of the permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbine.
[0032] By adjusting the active power output of the permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbine, the turbine releases the rotational kinetic energy stored in the wind turbine blades to provide frequency support for the onshore power grid.
[0033] This invention proposes a coordinated inertia response control system for offshore low-frequency wind power systems, comprising:

[0037] Coordinated Inertia Response Module: The offshore low-frequency wind farm executes inertia response based on the frequency change information of the onshore power grid and the virtual inertia control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C, and together with the onshore converter station M3C, provides frequency support for the onshore power grid.
[0038] Furthermore, the offshore low-frequency wind farm is composed of permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbine units, which include wind turbines, synchronous generators, and back-to-back converters.
[0039] The back-to-back converter is formed by connecting a machine-side converter and a grid-side converter back-to-back. The machine-side converter is connected to the wind turbine, and the wind turbine directly drives the rotor of the synchronous generator through the rotation of the rotor. The electrical energy generated by the synchronous generator is controlled and regulated by the machine-side converter. The machine-side converter controls the rotor speed of the wind turbine to maintain the optimal tip speed ratio for maximum wind energy capture. The grid-side converter is connected to the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C. The grid-side converter realizes the effective power delivery of the permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbine through a constant DC capacitor voltage.
[0040] Furthermore, the onshore power frequency grid consists of synchronous generator sets and active and reactive loads, and the synchronous generator sets in the onshore power frequency grid are connected to the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C.
[0041] Furthermore, the onshore converter station M3C decouples and controls the power frequency side and low frequency side separately, specifically as follows:
[0042] The power frequency side control of the onshore converter station M3C adopts a constant DC capacitor voltage control method. The control objective of the constant DC capacitor voltage control method is to keep the total DC capacitor voltage of the onshore converter station M3C constant and to perform reactive power interaction with the onshore power frequency grid.
[0043] The low-frequency side control of the onshore converter station M3C adopts a VF control mode with constant AC voltage amplitude and frequency. The VF control mode with constant AC voltage amplitude and frequency actively establishes the low-frequency AC power supply for the offshore low-frequency wind farm.
[0044] Furthermore, the process for determining the virtual inertia control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C is as follows:

[0046] Furthermore, in step 2, the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C performs an inertial response based on the current frequency of the onshore power grid and in conjunction with the virtual inertial control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C, specifically as follows:
[0047] Based on the virtual inertia control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C, a droop control method for DC capacitor voltage is designed.
[0048] By detecting the current frequency of the onshore power grid, the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C performs inertial response based on the current frequency of the onshore power grid, combined with the droop control mode of the DC capacitor voltage, and by utilizing the energy stored in the DC capacitor in the onshore converter station M3C.
[0049] Furthermore, in step 3, the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, based on the inertial response results executed by the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, transmits the frequency change information of the onshore power grid to the offshore low-frequency wind farm through the frequency conversion control strategy of the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, specifically:
[0050] Based on the virtual inertia response results of the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, the onshore converter station M3C introduces a droop control mode, and performs frequency conversion control in combination with the frequency conversion control strategy of the low frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C.
[0051] The frequency converter control on the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C is used to adjust the output frequency on the power frequency side, so that the frequency changes of the onshore converter station M3C and the onshore power frequency grid are synchronized, frequency matching is achieved, and the coupling relationship between the low-frequency frequency of the offshore low-frequency wind power system and the power frequency frequency of the onshore power frequency grid is established.
[0052] Furthermore, the power frequency side virtual inertia response result of the onshore converter station M3C includes the current DC voltage amplitude of the onshore converter station M3C;
[0053] The current DC voltage amplitude of the onshore converter station M3C is detected. Based on the current DC voltage amplitude of the onshore converter station M3C and the reference value of the differential element, the voltage deviation of the reference value is determined.
[0054] The required adjustment amount is calculated based on the voltage deviation of the reference value. The low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C performs frequency conversion control based on the required adjustment amount and the frequency conversion control strategy of the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, changing the frequency of the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C so that the low-frequency side frequency can directly follow the frequency of the onshore power grid, realizing the transmission of frequency information.
[0055] Furthermore, in step 4, the offshore low-frequency wind farm executes an inertial response based on the frequency change information of the onshore power grid obtained from the onshore power grid, combined with the virtual inertial control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C, and together with the onshore converter station M3C, provides frequency support for the onshore power grid. This includes: the permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbine units in the offshore low-frequency wind farm execute the inertial response of the offshore low-frequency wind farm based on the frequency change information of the onshore power grid obtained from the offshore low-frequency wind farm, through the virtual inertial control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C, so as to jointly provide frequency support for the onshore power grid with the onshore converter station M3C.

[0076] The coordinated inertia response control method for offshore low-frequency wind power systems in this invention includes the following steps:
[0077] Step 1: Based on the frequency response model of the offshore low-frequency wind power system, analyze the influence of the system's inertia level on the frequency response and the dynamic characteristics of the DC capacitor of the onshore converter station M3C. Based on the analysis results of the influence of the inertia level on the frequency response and the dynamic characteristics of the DC capacitor, determine the virtual inertia control strategy for the onshore converter station M3C. The offshore low-frequency wind power system includes an offshore low-frequency wind farm, the onshore converter station M3C, and the onshore power grid. The offshore low-frequency wind farm is responsible for wind power collection and initial conversion, the onshore power grid is the final power consumption network, and the onshore converter station M3C is the core of the entire system. The M3C, the core device for AC / AC conversion and power transmission, lacks a DC link for direct AC-AC frequency conversion. As a result, the onshore converter station is composed of cascaded H-bridge modules with nine arms. The direct coupling of two different frequencies within the M3C increases control complexity, necessitating decoupling of internal electrical quantities. Furthermore, the M3C is decoupled so that the power frequency side and low-frequency side are controlled separately. Therefore, the M3C can be equivalent to a combination of two voltage source inverters, enabling the use of classic voltage and current dual closed-loop control.
[0078] Specifically, the onshore power grid consists of synchronous generator sets and active and reactive loads. The synchronous generator sets in the onshore power grid are connected to the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C. The offshore low-frequency wind farm consists of permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbine sets, which include wind turbines, synchronous generators, and back-to-back converters. The back-to-back converters are formed by connecting the turbine-side converter and the grid-side converter back-to-back. The turbine-side converter is connected to the wind turbine. The wind turbine directly drives the rotor of the synchronous generator to rotate through the rotor rotation. The electrical energy generated by the synchronous generator is controlled and regulated by the turbine-side converter. The turbine-side converter controls the wind turbine rotor speed to maintain the optimal tip speed ratio for maximum wind energy capture. The grid-side converter is connected to the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C. The grid-side converter achieves effective power delivery of the permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbine sets through a constant DC capacitor voltage, ensuring a stable power supply to the grid. By controlling back-to-back converters, reactive power support can be provided, improving grid voltage stability and power quality. For example... Figure 1 As shown, a typical offshore low-frequency wind farm is applied in a grid-connected structure via an onshore converter station M3C: the wind farm's voltage is stepped up by a 690V / 35kV transformer, and then connected to the external 35kV AC grid via a 50km submarine cable through the onshore converter station M3C. The wind farm consists of 50 wind turbines with a rated capacity of 2MW.
[0079] In step 1, the onshore converter station M3C is decoupled and converted into separate control of the power frequency side and the low frequency side. Specifically, the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C adopts a constant DC capacitor voltage control mode. The control objective of the constant DC capacitor voltage control mode is to keep the total DC capacitor voltage of the onshore converter station M3C constant and to perform reactive power interaction with the onshore power frequency grid system.
[0080] Offshore low-frequency wind farms are similar to passive networks and require a synchronous power source to transmit power. Therefore, the low-frequency side control of the onshore converter station M3C adopts a VF control mode with constant AC voltage amplitude and frequency. The VF control mode with constant AC voltage amplitude and frequency actively establishes a low-frequency AC power source for the offshore low-frequency wind farm and supplies power to the offshore low-frequency wind farm.
[0081] Through the above control methods, a steady-state operation control scheme for offshore low-frequency wind power systems can be established. That is, the offshore low-frequency wind farm generates low-frequency power through maximum power point tracking, and the onshore converter station M3C converts the low-frequency power into power frequency power through AC / AC conversion and integrates it into the power grid system, thereby achieving efficient and reliable transmission of offshore wind power.
[0082] Step 2: Detect the current frequency of the onshore power grid. The power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C executes inertia response based on the current frequency of the onshore power grid and in combination with the virtual inertia control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C.
[0083] In step 2, the determination of the virtual inertia control strategy for the onshore converter station M3C is carried out as follows:
[0084] Based on the dynamic characteristic analysis results of the DC capacitor of the onshore converter station M3C, the dynamic characteristics of the DC capacitor of the onshore converter station M3C are compared with the rotor motion equation of the synchronous generator set in the onshore power frequency grid. Based on the comparison results of the rotor motion equation, the virtual inertia control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C is determined.
[0085] In a further proposed scheme, the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C performs inertial response based on the current frequency of the onshore power grid and in conjunction with the virtual inertial control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C. Specifically, based on the virtual inertial control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C, a droop control method for the DC capacitor voltage is designed. By detecting the current frequency of the onshore power grid, the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C performs inertial response according to the current frequency of the onshore power grid, in conjunction with the droop control method for the DC capacitor voltage, and by utilizing the capacity stored in the DC capacitor in the onshore converter station M3C.
[0086] When the frequency of the power grid changes, the onshore converter station M3C uses a virtual inertia control strategy and a DC capacitor voltage droop control method to utilize the energy stored in the DC capacitor to respond quickly to the frequency change of the onshore power grid, release or absorb energy, and provide necessary inertial support to maintain the stability of the grid and the frequency, improve the grid's adaptability to renewable energy fluctuations, and enhance the overall stability of the grid.
[0087] The specific implementation plan for the virtual inertia control of the M3C converter at the onshore converter station in step 2 is as follows:
[0088] In a power system, inertia can be represented as the ability of various frequency regulation resources to maintain a constant frequency or resist frequency changes when the system experiences active power imbalance, using kinetic, chemical, and electrical energy. The inertia of a traditional power system is mainly provided by the rotor kinetic energy of synchronous generators in onshore power grids. Because the rotor speed of the synchronous generator is directly coupled to the power grid frequency, when a disturbance occurs and the system experiences active power imbalance, the rotor speed changes accordingly, providing inertia to resist changes in the system frequency. For synchronous generators in onshore power grids, the per-unit equation of their rotor motion can be expressed as:
[0089]
[0090] In the formula: H SGP is the inertial time constant of the synchronous machine; f and f0 are the actual frequency and rated frequency of the power frequency system, respectively; m P e These are the mechanical power input to the prime mover and the electromagnetic power output to the generator, respectively; ΔP g This represents the imbalance between mechanical power and electromagnetic power.
[0091] When the onshore converter station M3C is operating normally, its capacitor voltage remains constant. To achieve active frequency support for the onshore converter station M3C, this invention utilizes the DC capacitor voltage to simulate the change in rotor speed of the synchronous generator to achieve inertial response. The low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C is connected to the offshore low-frequency wind farm, and the power frequency side is connected to the onshore power frequency grid. When the active power on both sides is unbalanced, the dynamic equation of the DC capacitor voltage is:
[0092]
[0093] Where: ΔP C The electrostatic energy absorbed or released by a DC capacitor; C eq P is the equivalent capacitance of the onshore converter station M3C; in P represents the active power input to the equivalent capacitance of the low-frequency wind field. out The active power released by the equivalent capacitance; U dc Let be the DC voltage of the equivalent capacitance. Equation 2 describes the dynamic characteristics of the DC capacitor voltage. According to the formula, the energy released or absorbed by the DC capacitor is related to the rate of change of the capacitor voltage, dU. dc / dt related.
[0094] To enable the onshore converter station M3C to have inertial response capability, both sides of Equation 2 are simultaneously divided by the rated power S of the onshore converter station M3C. M3C And cause the unbalanced power ΔP of the DC capacitor to be... C Unbalanced power ΔP with synchronous machine g Equal to this, we can obtain the DC capacitor configuration for the M3C converter station on shore:
[0095]
[0096] In the formula: Let be the inertial response time constant of the onshore converter station M3C.
[0097] Equation 3 establishes the coupling relationship between the DC capacitor voltage of the onshore converter station M3C and the power frequency system frequency. By integrating both sides of Equation 3, the model of the DC capacitor voltage-frequency of the onshore converter station M3C is derived. Since the DC capacitor voltage fluctuation is usually limited to about 15%, the higher-order terms in the integral equation can be ignored, resulting in:
[0098]
[0099] In the formula: U dc0 This is the reference value for the DC capacitor voltage; ΔU dc Δf and Δf represent the deviations of DC voltage and frequency, respectively. According to Equation 5, the virtual inertia control equation for the onshore converter station M3C is:
[0100]
[0101] In the formula: k M3C This represents the droop control coefficient in the virtual inertia control equation. Based on Equation 6, the virtual inertia controller for the onshore converter station M3C is designed. By substituting the values of the onshore converter station M3C's inertia time constant, rated power, and equivalent capacitance into Equation 6, the droop control coefficient for the onshore converter station M3C can be obtained. For example... Figure 2 As shown, when a change in the frequency of the onshore power grid system is detected, the frequency deviation is introduced into the control equation of the onshore converter station M3C to obtain the reference value of the DC capacitor voltage of the onshore converter station M3C. The DC capacitor then releases or absorbs energy to provide virtual inertia for the system to prevent the frequency from changing too quickly.
[0102] This invention uses the DC capacitor energy of the onshore converter station M3C to support frequency by simulating the inertial response of a synchronous generator. When the load suddenly increases and the frequency changes abruptly, the virtual inertial control of the onshore converter station M3C can respond quickly and immediately release the electrostatic energy stored in the DC capacitor, thereby slowing down the rapid frequency drop and effectively reducing the risk of system frequency instability.
[0103] Step 3: Based on the inertial response results executed by the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C transmits the frequency change information of the onshore power frequency grid to the offshore low-frequency wind farm through the frequency conversion control strategy of the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C.
[0104] In step 3, the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, based on the inertial response results executed by the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, transmits the frequency change information of the onshore power frequency grid to the offshore low-frequency wind farm through the frequency conversion control strategy of the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, thereby realizing frequency information transmission. Specifically:
[0105] The M3C at the onshore converter station senses the current frequency of the onshore power grid. Based on the frequency change of the power grid, the DC capacitor of the M3C at the onshore converter station implements a virtual inertial response. The amplitude of the DC capacitor can respond to the frequency change of the onshore power grid, and the DC capacitor contains information about the frequency change of the power grid.
[0106] Based on the virtual inertia response results of the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, droop control is introduced into the onshore converter station M3C. Combined with the frequency conversion control strategy of the low frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, frequency conversion control is executed.
[0107] By adjusting the output frequency of the power frequency side based on the frequency converter control on the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, the frequency changes of the onshore converter station M3C and the onshore power frequency grid are synchronized, achieving frequency matching and establishing a coupling relationship between the low-frequency frequency of the offshore low-frequency wind farm and the power frequency frequency of the onshore power frequency grid. This coupling relationship allows the offshore low-frequency wind power system to indirectly respond to the frequency changes of the onshore power frequency grid through the onshore converter station M3C.
[0108] In the preferred embodiment, the virtual inertia response result of the onshore converter station M3C on the power frequency side includes the current DC voltage amplitude of the DC capacitor in the onshore converter station M3C; detecting the current DC voltage amplitude of the onshore converter station M3C, and determining the voltage deviation of the reference value based on the current DC voltage amplitude of the onshore converter station M3C and the reference value of the differential element; deducing the amount to be adjusted based on the voltage deviation of the reference value, and performing frequency conversion control on the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C according to the amount to be adjusted and the frequency conversion control strategy of the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, changing the frequency of the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C so that the low-frequency side frequency can directly follow the frequency of the onshore power grid, realizing the transmission of frequency information. Frequency conversion control refers to matching the offshore wind power frequency with the onshore power grid frequency by adjusting the operating frequency of the power electronic equipment. Frequency conversion control enables the transmission of frequency information between offshore low-frequency wind farms and onshore power grids, allowing wind power systems to adjust their output frequency according to grid demands and thus better integrate into the grid.
[0109] The specific implementation plan for frequency information transmission in step 3 is as follows:
[0110] The offshore low-frequency wind farm is connected to the onshore converter station M3C via an offshore cable. Because the onshore converter station M3C isolates the onshore power grid frequency and decouples it from the low-frequency frequency of the offshore low-frequency wind power system, the offshore low-frequency wind farm cannot know the information on the frequency changes of the onshore power grid, and therefore cannot actively provide frequency support for the onshore power grid.
[0111] Currently, there are two methods for offshore low-frequency wind farms to receive frequency change information from the onshore power grid: remote communication and coordinated control. As offshore wind power continues to expand into the mid-to-far sea, the latency issues associated with remote communication are becoming increasingly severe, and the installation of communication equipment incurs additional costs. Therefore, this paper chooses the coordinated control scheme, utilizing the M3C frequency converter control at the onshore converter station to transmit information about frequency changes from the onshore power grid.
[0112] The onshore converter station M3C is a power electronic device used for AC / AC conversion in offshore low-frequency wind power systems. After decoupling conversion, the low-frequency side and the power frequency side can be controlled separately. The power frequency side uses a constant capacitor voltage control scheme to maintain a constant DC capacitor voltage and ensure stable operation of the onshore converter station M3C. The low-frequency side uses a constant AC voltage amplitude and frequency control scheme to establish an offshore low-frequency AC power supply to power the offshore low-frequency wind farm. When performing active grid connection control on the low-frequency side, its frequency needs to be given. After passing through the integrator controller, the low-frequency power supply phase angle is obtained. The phase angle should be between 0 and 2π; if it exceeds 2π, it is reset to 0 and recalculated. The formula for calculating the low-frequency power supply phase angle is:
[0113] θ l =∫2πf l0 dt (7)
[0114] In the formula: θ l The phase angle of the low-frequency power supply; f l0 For the given low frequency. Figure 3 This is the phase control diagram for the low-frequency AC power supply. As shown in Equation 7, the low-frequency side frequency of the M3C converter station on shore depends on a given value f. l0 To ensure that offshore low-frequency wind farms receive information about frequency changes in the onshore power grid, the low-frequency side frequency needs to be adjusted. As previously mentioned, the onshore converter station M3C utilizes the DC capacitor voltage for inertial response, and this capacitor voltage contains information about frequency changes. Therefore, the rate of change of the DC capacitor voltage is directly detected through a differentiating element, amplified by a proportional gain, and added to the initial given frequency to obtain the reference value of the low-frequency side frequency. The overall control equation is:
[0115]
[0116] In the formula: k l This is the proportional coefficient in frequency converter control. Figure 4 The diagram shows the block diagram of the frequency converter control. To filter out noise interference from the DC capacitor voltage, a first-order transfer function is added to the control loop for filtering. In summary, the above control establishes a connection between the land-based power frequency and the marine low-frequency frequency, realizing the transmission of frequency information.
[0117] This invention directly transmits onshore power grid frequency information through M3C frequency converter control at an onshore converter station. Firstly, the frequency converter control scheme can quickly adjust the frequency to respond, avoiding the communication equipment costs and latency issues associated with remote communication schemes, thus achieving better frequency modulation results. Secondly, in the initial stage of frequency change, the dynamic performance of the entire system's frequency response is dominated by the system's inertial response. When the frequency exceeds the primary frequency modulation threshold, the system will perform a frequency modulation. The additional power of the inertial response is related to the system's frequency change rate. This invention primarily focuses on the initial stage of disturbance, preventing rapid frequency changes and reducing the power grid system's frequency change rate by coordinating the inertial response. Therefore, differential control is used in the frequency control stage to transmit frequency conversion rate information, providing greater inertia to the system at the initial stage of frequency modulation.
[0118] Step 4: The offshore low-frequency wind farm executes inertial response based on the frequency change information of the onshore power grid and the virtual inertial control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C, and together with the onshore converter station M3C, provides frequency support for the onshore power grid.
[0119] In step 4, the offshore low-frequency wind farm executes an inertial response based on the frequency change information of the onshore power grid and the virtual inertial control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C. Together with the onshore converter station M3C, it provides frequency support for the onshore power grid. This includes: the permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbines in the offshore low-frequency wind farm execute the inertial response of the offshore low-frequency wind farm based on the frequency change information of the onshore power grid and the virtual inertial control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C, so as to provide frequency support for the onshore power grid together with the onshore converter station M3C.
[0120] Since step 2 achieves the information transmission of the onshore power frequency, the low-frequency of the offshore low-frequency wind power system changes with the power frequency system frequency. Therefore, to achieve inertia support for the offshore low-frequency wind farm, the specific steps are as follows: First, the permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbine in the offshore low-frequency wind farm detects the current frequency of the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C through phase-locked loop (PLL) technology. The detected current frequency of the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C is compared with the preset frequency to obtain the low-frequency deviation. According to the virtual inertia control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C and introducing the proportional relationship of the droop control loop, the low-frequency deviation is converted and calculated to obtain the required additional power value. Based on the calculated additional power value, the control system of the offshore low-frequency wind farm adjusts the active power output of the permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbine. By adjusting the active power output of the permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbine, the permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbine releases the rotational kinetic energy stored in the wind turbine blades, providing frequency support for the onshore power grid.
[0121] This invention achieves inertia support for offshore low-frequency wind farms by designing a droop control mechanism. Since the onshore converter station M3C transmits information about the rate of frequency change, the additional power value can be obtained by directly controlling the detected low-frequency deviation through the droop control mechanism. The offshore low-frequency wind farm can then rapidly adjust its active power output and utilize rotor kinetic energy to provide instantaneous power support to the onshore power frequency system. Compared to releasing energy through DC capacitors, offshore low-frequency wind farms can provide greater power, effectively relieving the pressure on onshore synchronous generator units, significantly improving the inertia level of the offshore low-frequency wind power system, and enhancing the system's frequency stability.
[0122] The specific implementation plan for virtual inertia control of offshore low-frequency wind farms in step 4 is as follows:
[0123] The M3C low-frequency side of the onshore converter station transmits frequency information through frequency conversion control. When the power frequency system is disturbed and the frequency changes, the frequency of the M3C low-frequency side of the onshore converter station will also change accordingly.
[0124] Under normal circumstances, wind turbines in offshore low-frequency wind farms achieve maximum power output by capturing maximum wind energy.
[0125] When the grid frequency is disturbed, the onshore converter station M3C correspondingly changes the low-frequency side frequency. In the offshore low-frequency wind farm, the wind turbines detect the low-frequency side frequency f through a phase-locked loop (PLL). l The change in frequency is used to introduce the deviation between the detected frequency value and the reference value into the proportional controller to obtain the reference value of the additional power of the offshore low-frequency wind farm, thereby changing the output of the wind turbines to achieve a frequency response. Taking a single wind turbine in the wind farm as an example, the specific control strategy is as follows:
[0126]
[0127] In the formula: The reference active power for the wind turbine during maximum power point tracking; k wt,i This is the proportional control coefficient; This is the new active power reference value after adding the additional power. By adding the additional power of all wind turbines in the wind farm, the active power for the inertial response of the offshore low-frequency wind farm can be obtained as follows:
[0128]
[0129] As shown in Equation 10, when the active power of the system is no longer balanced due to disturbance, the wind turbines in the wind farm release the rotational kinetic energy stored in the rotor through virtual inertia control to provide inertial response, thereby reducing the frequency regulation burden of onshore synchronous wind turbines and avoiding rapid frequency changes. Compared with the virtual inertia control of the M3C converter station on shore, the permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbines in offshore low-frequency wind farms have a larger inertial time constant, and due to the limitation of DC capacitor voltage fluctuations, the rotor kinetic energy is more suitable as a frequency regulation resource to provide more inertia for the system.
[0130] In summary, the offshore low-frequency wind farm, composed of permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbines, generates low-frequency AC power through maximum power point tracking. This power is then boosted and transmitted to the onshore converter station M3C. The onshore converter station M3C achieves AC-AC conversion through decoupling transformation. At this point, the DC capacitor voltage is kept constant by the power frequency side control, thus enabling the effective transmission of offshore low-frequency wind power. The low-frequency power is converted into power frequency power and integrated into the onshore power frequency grid.
[0131] As offshore wind turbines replace some synchronous generators in the onshore power grid, the presence of onshore converter stations (M3C) and full-power converters for wind turbines causes decoupling between low-frequency and power grid frequencies. This reduces the inertia level of the entire system, leading to the risk of frequency instability and seriously affecting the safe operation of the power system.
[0132] Therefore, this invention proposes a coordinated inertial response control scheme for the aforementioned marine low-frequency system. This cascaded control strategy is as follows: Figure 6 As shown, the specific process is as follows:
[0133] When a sudden increase in load or a generator trip occurs in the onshore power system, the active power in the system is no longer balanced. The rotor speed of the onshore synchronous generator decreases to compensate for the active power deficit in the system by releasing rotor kinetic energy. Since the rotor speed of the synchronous generator is directly coupled with the power grid frequency, the grid frequency drops rapidly.
[0134] When the onshore converter station M3C detects a frequency change in the onshore power grid, based on the coupling relationship between DC capacitor voltage and frequency, the reference value of the DC capacitor voltage will change accordingly through virtual inertia control of the onshore converter station M3C. This releases the electrostatic energy stored in the DC capacitor of the onshore converter station M3C to provide frequency support for the system. Due to the limitations of DC capacitor voltage fluctuations, the energy provided by the DC capacitor is limited, requiring offshore low-frequency wind farms to provide more energy.
[0135] To this end, a frequency converter control loop for the M3C onshore converter station was designed. When the DC capacitor voltage changes, the frequency converter control of the M3C onshore converter station will change the low-frequency side frequency value accordingly, thereby realizing the transmission of frequency information.
[0136] When an offshore low-frequency wind farm detects frequency changes via a phase-locked loop (PLL), it releases the rotational kinetic energy stored in the turbine blades through virtual inertia control. This adjusts the active power output of the offshore wind turbine to provide inertial support to the onshore power grid. This is the entire process of coordinating inertia in the offshore low-frequency wind power system. By combining DC capacitor energy with rotor kinetic energy through a coordinated control strategy, the system's frequency regulation process is improved, providing inertial support and effectively enhancing its inertia level. This avoids frequency instability caused by rapid frequency changes and improves the system's frequency stability.
[0137] The present invention also provides a coordinated inertia response control system for an offshore low-frequency wind power system, comprising:
[0138] Analysis Module: Based on the frequency response model of the offshore low-frequency wind power system, the influence of the system inertia level on the frequency response and the dynamic characteristics of the DC capacitor of the onshore converter station M3C are analyzed. Based on the analysis results of the influence of the inertia level on the frequency response and the dynamic characteristics of the DC capacitor, the virtual inertia control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C is determined. The offshore low-frequency wind power system includes an offshore low-frequency wind farm, the onshore converter station M3C and the onshore power grid connected in sequence. The onshore converter station M3C is decoupled into a power frequency side and a low-frequency side for separate control.
[0139] Inertia Response Module: Detects the current frequency of the onshore power grid. The power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C executes the inertia response based on the current frequency of the onshore power grid and in conjunction with the virtual inertia control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C.
[0140] Coupling relationship establishment module: Based on the inertial response results executed by the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, the low frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C transmits the frequency change information of the onshore power frequency grid to the offshore low frequency wind farm through the frequency conversion control strategy of the low frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C.
[0141] Coordinated Inertia Response Module: The offshore low-frequency wind farm executes inertia response based on the frequency change information of the onshore power grid and the virtual inertia control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C, and together with the onshore converter station M3C, provides frequency support for the onshore power grid.
[0142] Specifically, offshore low-frequency wind farms consist of permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbine units, which include wind turbines, synchronous generators, and back-to-back converters.
[0143] The back-to-back converter consists of a turbine-side converter and a grid-side converter connected back-to-back. The turbine-side converter is connected to the wind turbine, which directly drives the synchronous generator's rotor through rotor rotation. The electrical energy generated by the synchronous generator is controlled and regulated by the turbine-side converter. The turbine-side converter controls the wind turbine rotor speed to maintain the optimal tip speed ratio for maximum wind energy capture. The grid-side converter is connected to the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C. The grid-side converter achieves effective power delivery of the permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbine through a constant DC capacitor voltage.
[0144] The onshore power frequency grid consists of synchronous generator sets and active and reactive loads. The synchronous generator sets in the onshore power frequency grid are connected to the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C.
[0145] In the preferred embodiment, the onshore converter station M3C is decoupled and converted into separate control for the power frequency side and the low frequency side, specifically:
[0146] The power frequency side control of the onshore converter station M3C adopts a constant DC capacitor voltage control method. The control objective of the constant DC capacitor voltage control method is to keep the total DC capacitor voltage of the onshore converter station M3C constant and to perform reactive power interaction with the onshore power frequency grid.
[0147] The low-frequency side control of the onshore converter station M3C adopts a VF control mode with constant AC voltage amplitude and frequency. The VF control mode with constant AC voltage amplitude and frequency actively establishes the low-frequency AC power supply for the offshore low-frequency wind farm.
[0148] The confirmation process for the virtual inertia control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C is as follows:
[0149] Based on the dynamic characteristic analysis results of the DC capacitor of the onshore converter station M3C, the dynamic characteristics of the DC capacitor of the onshore converter station M3C are compared with the rotor motion equation of the synchronous generator set in the onshore power frequency grid. Based on the comparison results of the rotor motion equation, the virtual inertia control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C is determined.
[0150] Furthermore, the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C executes inertial response based on the current frequency of the onshore power grid and in conjunction with the virtual inertial control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C, specifically as follows:
[0151] Based on the virtual inertia control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C, a droop control method for DC capacitor voltage is designed.
[0152] By detecting the current frequency of the onshore power grid, the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C performs inertial response based on the current frequency of the onshore power grid, combined with the droop control mode of the DC capacitor voltage, and by utilizing the energy stored in the DC capacitor in the onshore converter station M3C.
[0153] To establish the coupling relationship between the low-frequency frequency of offshore wind power and the power frequency of the onshore power grid, the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, based on the inertial response results executed by the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, transmits the frequency change information of the onshore power grid to the offshore low-frequency wind farm through the frequency conversion control strategy of the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, thereby realizing frequency information transmission. Specifically:
[0154] Based on the virtual inertia response results of the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, a droop control mode is introduced for the onshore converter station M3C. Combined with the frequency conversion control strategy of the low frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, frequency conversion control is executed. Based on the frequency conversion control of the low frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, the output frequency of the power frequency side is adjusted to synchronize the frequency changes of the onshore converter station M3C with the onshore power frequency grid, thereby achieving frequency matching and establishing the coupling relationship between the low frequency frequency of the offshore low frequency wind farm and the power frequency frequency of the onshore power frequency grid. In addition, the virtual inertia response results of the power frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C include the current DC voltage amplitude of the DC capacitor in the onshore converter station M3C; detecting the current DC voltage amplitude of the onshore converter station M3C, determining the voltage deviation of the reference value based on the current DC voltage amplitude of the onshore converter station M3C and the reference value of the differential element; calculating the amount that needs to be adjusted based on the voltage deviation of the reference value; and performing frequency conversion control on the low frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C according to the amount that needs to be adjusted and the frequency conversion control strategy of the low frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C to change the frequency of the low frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C, so that the low frequency side frequency can directly follow the frequency of the onshore power grid and realize the transmission of frequency information.
[0155] In this invention, the offshore low-frequency wind farm, based on the frequency change information of the onshore power grid obtained from the onshore power grid, and in conjunction with the virtual inertia control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C, executes an inertia response, and together with the onshore converter station M3C, provides frequency support for the onshore power grid. This includes: the permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbine units in the offshore low-frequency wind farm, based on the frequency change information of the onshore power grid obtained from the offshore low-frequency wind farm, execute the inertia response of the offshore low-frequency wind farm through the virtual inertia control strategy of the onshore converter station M3C, so as to jointly provide frequency support for the onshore power grid with the onshore converter station M3C. Specifically:
[0156] In offshore low-frequency wind farms, permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbines use phase-locked loop (PLL) technology to detect the current frequency of the low-frequency side of the onshore converter station M3C. The detected current frequency is compared with a preset frequency to obtain the low-frequency deviation. A proportional relationship is introduced into the droop control loop to convert and calculate the low-frequency deviation, yielding the required additional power value. Based on this calculated additional power value, the control system of the offshore low-frequency wind farm adjusts the active power output of the permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbines. By adjusting the active power output, the permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbines release the rotational kinetic energy stored in the turbine blades, providing frequency support for the onshore power grid.
[0157] This system, through coordinated control of the offshore low-frequency wind farm and the onshore converter station M3C, combines the DC capacitor energy of the onshore converter station M3C with the kinetic energy of the wind turbine rotor. By releasing the energy stored in the wind turbine and the onshore converter station M3C, the system participates in the inertial response process, thereby achieving active frequency support from the onshore converter station M3C, improving the system's inertial level, reducing the risk of frequency instability, and enhancing the stability of the system's frequency.
[0158] This invention also provides an electronic device, which includes a processor and a memory. The processor executes steps of a coordinated inertia response control method by calling programs or instructions stored in the memory. These steps include: Step 1: Based on the frequency response model of the offshore low-frequency wind power system, analyzing the influence of the system's inertia level on the frequency response and the dynamic characteristics of the DC capacitor of the onshore converter station M3C, and determining the virtual inertia control strategy for the onshore converter station M3C based on the analysis results of the influence of the inertia level on the frequency response and the dynamic characteristics of the DC capacitor. The offshore low-frequency wind power system includes an offshore low-frequency wind farm, the onshore converter station M3C, and an onshore power grid connected sequentially. The onshore converter station M3C is decoupled into a power frequency side and a low-frequency side, and the control strategies are implemented separately.

This invention combines the DC capacitor energy of the onshore converter station M3C with the kinetic energy of the wind turbine rotor through coordinated control of the offshore low-frequency wind farm and the onshore converter station M3C. By releasing the energy stored in the wind turbine and the onshore converter station M3C to participate in the system's inertial response process, the onshore converter station M3C actively supports the frequency, improves the system's inertial level, reduces the risk of frequency instability, and improves the stability of the system's frequency.
