Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of direct current microgrid protection, and in particular to a direct current microgrid grounding fault protection method and system for adaptive distributed energy and load plug-and-play. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous increase in energy demand and the enhancement of environmental protection awareness, the application of distributed energy systems and DC microgrids in the energy field is becoming more and more common. Today's society is facing increasingly severe challenges in energy security and environmental protection, which has promoted the widespread application and development of renewable energy. In particular, the rapid development of distributed energy resources such as solar energy and wind energy has made the position of microgrid technology increasingly prominent in the energy system. As a small-scale power system, microgrids have the ability to operate autonomously and be isolated from the main power grid, and can provide reliable power supply to areas far away from traditional power grids. Compared with traditional large-scale power grids, microgrids are more flexible and can better adapt to local energy resources and load requirements, providing new solutions for the sustainable development of energy systems.

[0003] In the continuous development and application of microgrids, DC microgrids as an emerging form have gradually attracted attention. DC microgrids have the advantages of low energy loss, fast system response, and easy interface with DC loads and distributed energy, and are considered to be one of the important development directions of future energy systems. However, unlike AC microgrids, the protection problem of DC microgrids is particularly complex and critical due to their special working principles and components. Traditional AC protection schemes cannot be directly applied to DC systems. Therefore, it is urgent to develop an innovative and adaptable DC microgrid protection method to deal with various faults and abnormal conditions that may occur in the system and ensure the safe operation and stability of the system. Due to the complex topological structure and dynamic operation characteristics of DC microgrids, their protection problems are becoming increasingly prominent.

[0004] Existing protection methods are often fixed. The transient process of DC microgrids is relatively complex, and dynamic changes make it difficult for DC microgrid protection to apply the protection methods of DC distribution networks. Nowadays, the access of a large number of constant power load devices such as charging piles has further led to a decrease in the stability of DC microgrids. Overcurrent and other protections can generally only identify ground faults with smaller transition resistances. Distance protection cannot adapt to DC microgrids with shorter lines, and cannot adapt to the location of ground faults with different transition resistances. Therefore, a plug-and-play DC microgrid ground fault location protection method that is suitable for a variety of occasions is designed to provide new theoretical and technical support for the protection of DC microgrids, which is of great significance for promoting the development of DC microgrids. Summary of the invention

When the regional fault grounding current and power change rate meet the protection start-up criteria, the fault area is determined according to the fault area location information, and a tripping command is sent to the DC circuit breaker connected to the fault area. The DC circuit breaker is disconnected after receiving the tripping command.

[0105] The structure of the DC microgrid is as follows: Figure 2 As shown in the figure, there are X photovoltaic areas, Y energy storage areas and Z constant power loads (CPL).

However, when a ground short circuit fault occurs in the DC microgrid, the power electronic equipment in the converter of the DC microgrid increases the high-frequency harmonic content of the DC bus voltage and line current, making the overcurrent protection unable to detect the fault, so this feature is used to achieve fault detection.

[0137]

[0138] Where V a1~X 、V b1~Y 、V c1~Z It is the comprehensive judgment information value of whether a fault occurs in the area, and its value is 1 or -1; 1 means a fault occurs in the area, and -1 means a fault occurs outside the area.

[0139] The protection start criterion is: through the fault state of each circuit breaker in X photovoltaic areas, Y energy storage areas, and Z load areas and the local stable operation state, the power change rate and the regional fault grounding current change rate are detected to determine whether the transient change exceeds the set value and then determine whether the protection is started.

[0140] A specific implementation of the protection start criterion is:

[0141]

[0142] In the formula, represents the power change rate, Indicates the rate of change of regional fault ground current, Δp set Indicates the setting value of the power change rate, Δi setIndicates the setting value of the current change rate. The regional power change rate and current change rate are used as the protection start-up criterion to avoid the protection system from malfunctioning due to the interference of constant power load.

[0143] Embodiment 2

[0144] The present invention proposes a DC microgrid grounding fault protection system based on the method described in Example 1, such as Figure 3 As shown, it includes: a protection comprehensive judgment device, a protection communication device and a DC circuit breaker;

[0145] The DC circuit breaker corresponds to each photovoltaic area, energy storage area and load area, and is used to collect high-frequency information, regional power and current, and isolate the fault area by disconnecting itself;

[0146] The protection comprehensive judgment device communicates with the DC circuit breaker through the protection communication device; when a fault occurs, the protection comprehensive judgment device will collect and analyze the results of the high-frequency harmonic change of each DC circuit breaker, and calculate the fault area positioning information in real time. When the regional fault grounding current and power change rate meet the protection start-up criterion, the fault area is determined according to the fault area positioning information, and a tripping command is sent to the DC circuit breaker connected to the fault area. The DC circuit breaker is disconnected after receiving the tripping command.

[0147] The implementation method of the functions of each device in the system is completely consistent with the steps of the method in Example 1, so it will not be repeated here.

[0148] Embodiment 3

[0149] The present invention proposes an electronic device, comprising: a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor. When the processor executes the computer program, the DC microgrid grounding fault protection method as described in Embodiment 1 is implemented.

[0150] Embodiment 4

[0151] The present invention provides a computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program, wherein the computer program enables a computer to execute the DC microgrid grounding fault protection method as described in the first embodiment.

[0152] The protection effect was verified by building a simulation in Matlab / Simulink. Figure 2 The DC microgrid source-storage system shown in the figure generates a disturbance in a photovoltaic area within the system at 1s, and a high-resistance grounding fault occurs at 2s. Figure 5 It indicates the current generated in a constant power load area when the bus voltage drops to 90% of the rated voltage. This current far exceeds the setting value, causing the ordinary overcurrent protection to malfunction. Figure 6As shown, BK1-3 represent the DC circuit breaker status quantities of 1-X photovoltaic areas, 1-Y energy storage areas and a certain load area respectively. The circuit breaker status of the load non-fault area is the same as the circuit breaker status of the photovoltaic energy storage area. Figure 7 It represents the power change rate of the constant power load when it receives a short-term disturbance under different bus voltage drops. It can be seen that when the bus voltage drops slightly, it means that the constant power load is subjected to a small disturbance. At this time, the power change rate generated is much smaller than the power change rate when a fault occurs. Therefore, the design of the protection criterion setting value avoids the normal disturbance range caused by the bus voltage drop, and the protection does not malfunction. Figure 8 For the comparison between the overcurrent protection and the method of extracting the high-frequency harmonic energy of the fault, after a ground fault with a large transition resistance occurs, the change in the current extracted by the overcurrent protection is too small to operate, while the extraction of the high-frequency harmonic energy of the fault can be used as an effective fault judgment criterion, and the protection information can still be calculated for precise positioning.

Whether these functions are performed in hardware or software depends on the specific application and design constraints of the technical solution.

All technical solutions under the concept of the present invention belong to the protection scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, some improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of the present invention should be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
