Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of current control of a grid-type converter, and in particular to an inverse time current limiting method, device and medium based on a grid-type converter. Background Art

[0002] Traditional renewable energy generation (RES) is integrated into the system using grid-following control to maximize the conversion of primary energy into electrical energy for transmission to the grid. With the increase in RES penetration, the inherent inertia of the power system decreases, which deteriorates the operational stability of the power system. To solve this problem, the grid forming converter (GFM) control technology with inertia simulation, frequency construction and voltage support capabilities has attracted widespread attention. After the grid is disturbed, the converter using GFM needs to output a large current to maintain a constant voltage amplitude and phase. However, since the overcurrent capacity of the power electronic converter is usually only 1.1~1.5 times its rated capacity, the GFM is very likely to enter the current limiting mode after the disturbance.

[0003] In the prior art, such as the current limiting method and device (CN117937916A), different control strategies are adopted for the positive-sequence component, negative-sequence component and zero-sequence component in the output current and voltage of the converter, and multiple limiting controls are performed on the dq-axis positive-sequence current component and the dq-axis negative-sequence current component, so as to achieve the control target that the three-phase current reference value output by the converter is less than the overcurrent point, which is beneficial to avoid converter failure caused by overcurrent and maintain the safe and stable operation of the power grid.

[0004] However, in the related art, a preset current threshold is used to limit the output current of the grid-type converter. The preset current threshold is set according to the steady-state overcurrent capacity of the grid-type converter, and the overcurrent capacity of the grid-type converter is not fully utilized.

[0089] Build in PSCAD / EMTDC Figure 2 The simulation model of the grid-type centralized energy storage power supply single load shown in the figure sets the simulation time to 5.0 s, and a three-phase metallic ground short circuit occurs at the grid connection point, and the fault lasts for 0.1 s. Figure 3 shown.

[0091] Depend on Figure 4 Analysis shows that compared with the traditional current limiter, the voltage drop at the grid connection point (PCC) is alleviated after the inverse time limiting method of the present invention is adopted. This improvement is due to the fact that the grid-connected converter injects more reactive power into the system during the transient period to support the grid connection point voltage. After adopting the inverse time limiting method, the minimum PCC voltage is 0.216 pu, while it is 0.122 pu when the traditional current limiter is used. After adopting the inverse time limiting method, the PCC voltage is greatly increased by 92.3%.

[0092] The current amplitude limit of the existing grid-type converter usually adopts the steady-state value amplitude limit, which does not take into account that when a short-circuit fault occurs, the current flowing through the converter will increase, resulting in increased converter losses and increased heat generation. Therefore, the overcurrent capacity of the converter will decrease in proportion to the increase in junction temperature, thereby showing an inverse time characteristic. The present invention utilizes this characteristic to increase the overcurrent limit value of the converter in the initial stage when the GFM touches the amplitude limit, thereby improving the transient stability margin of the grid-type converter.
