Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of contactor control, and in particular to a contactor control method for energy storage. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, electrochemical energy storage has developed rapidly. As one of the key electrical components of energy storage systems, AC / DC contactors have attracted extensive attention in research related to contactors. Energy storage contactors use the "rated voltage" of the contactor coil during the closing process. In addition to mechanical wear, the closing collision and closing moment will also produce harsh closing noise, affecting the working state of the controller ADC sampling; in addition, it is easy to cause violent contact bounce, resulting in "arcing" of the contacts, causing electrical erosion of the contacts, seriously affecting the service life of the contactor. Closing collision loss and contact bounce loss are mainly caused by violent closing collision. At the same time, the "rated voltage" is much greater than the required holding voltage, which causes energy waste. During the contactor shutdown process, a voltage spike much greater than the power supply voltage will appear in the electromagnetic mechanism when the inductive load is powered off, threatening the circuit safety.

[0003] In general, there are several problems with current energy storage contactors: 1. The energy storage contactor uses the "rated voltage" of the contactor coil during the closing process, and the dynamic and static iron cores collide violently. During the closing process, the control voltage of the contactor coil lacks reasonable and effective control, which can easily cause the dynamic and static iron cores to collide violently, causing strong suction noise at the moment of closing, and causing wear of the main contacts, accelerating contact erosion and damage, and also causing problems such as voltage drop of the energy storage auxiliary power supply and ADC sampling interference, increasing the failure rate of the energy storage system; 2. The energy storage contactor consumes a lot of power and has a high temperature rise during the holding process. The actual contactor's holding state only requires a small electromagnetic suction force to maintain. If energy-saving operation is not considered in the drive control, a large amount of power will be wasted, and the contactor will have a high temperature rise in the energy storage system; 3. The voltage spike at the moment of the energy storage contactor being turned off is too high. The too-fast opening of the contactor electromagnetic mechanism at the moment of turning off will generate a voltage spike several times higher than the power supply voltage, causing electromagnetic radiation interference, which can easily threaten the contactor drive circuit, ADC sampling and system control power supply voltage impact.

[0004] The current contactors for energy storage have problems such as pull-in noise, contact damage, control voltage source drop, ADC sampling interference; high energy consumption and temperature rise during the holding process; contactor shutdown voltage spikes, ADC sampling interference and electromagnetic radiation. These problems increase the failure rate of the energy storage system. Summary of the invention

[0022] The present invention is further described in detail below by examples, which are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0023] A method for controlling a contactor for energy storage comprises the following steps: S1: Multiple power supplies are input to the flyback power supply 1, which supplies power to the chip 2 through the power supply circuit. The flyback power supply 1 supplies power to the contactor drive circuit (24V power output) through the rectifier filter circuit 3. The chip 2TMS320F28335+EPM570F256C5N collects the contactor status control PWM and output control contactor according to the needs of the energy storage system; S2: The energy storage contactor control includes two control signal circuits, PWM_Drive and RELAY_Control_DO. The contactor can only be closed when both signals are satisfied at the same time. The energy storage contactor control circuit mainly includes PWM drive circuit, Boost circuit, Boost feedback circuit (overvoltage protection circuit) and control action output circuit. The drive PWM signal is generated by the control chip. The Boost circuit controls the closing process voltage and holding voltage of the energy storage contactor. The rated closing voltage of the contactor is DC24V. S3: At time T0, contactor 5 is in the open state; (energy storage) contactor 5 receives the closing signal at time T1, and the control chip loads the EPwm1Regs.CMPA register data according to the duty cycle to generate an increasing PWM_Drive to drive the Boost circuit to boost the voltage. At the same time, RELAY_Control_DO=1 outputs a high level. The control circuit adds the Boost voltage to both ends of the energy storage contactor coil. As the voltage increases, the current increases, and the magnetic field attraction increases, pulling the moving iron core to accelerate the closing; at time T2, when the contactor is about to close (before closing), the PWM_Drive drive changes from "increasing" to "rapidly decreasing" to reduce the speed of the moving iron core , effectively reducing the collision intensity of the dynamic and static iron cores; at time T3, the contactor is closed and in the holding process, PWM_Drive drives EPwm1Regs.CMPA=0 to close, and the energy storage contactor is held at low voltage DC12V (50%Un), reducing the holding power consumption of the energy storage contactor, improving the efficiency of the energy storage system, and greatly reducing the working temperature rise of the energy storage contactor; at time T4, the contactor opening command is received, the control chip controls RELAY_Control_DO=0 to output a low level, and the energy storage contactor begins to shut down; at time T5, the energy storage contactor completes the opening.

[0024] The core idea of ​​this program is: 1) PWM_Drive control based on high-speed controller: Based on the PWM control of the controller, the closing process and holding voltage of the energy storage contactor, the "increasing" PWM_Drive drive can suppress the power drop of the energy storage system control power supply during the closing process of the energy storage contactor, and reduce the interference effect on ADC sampling; the "decreasing" PWM_Drive drive can effectively reduce the violent collision of the dynamic and static iron cores, reduce the damage to the dynamic and static iron cores, extend the service life of the contactor, and increase the trouble-free operation time of the energy storage system; the contactor coil 50%Un during the holding process can reduce the power consumption of the energy storage contactor, reduce the temperature rise of the contactor, and also reduce the contactor shutdown peak voltage.

[0025] 2) Based on Boost control and output control hardware circuit: The present invention adopts 150MHz high-speed control chip TMS320F28335+EPM570F256C5N to control the Boost circuit voltage output, flexibly adjust the energy storage contactor coil voltage between 50%Un--100%Un, reduce the impact of the contactor closing process on the energy storage system control power supply and the power consumption of the holding process; the contactor closing must be during the Boost circuit voltage output & control circuit RELAY_Control_DO signal output, which can effectively avoid contactor malfunction and bounce; when on, a diode and a resistor are connected in parallel at both ends of the inductive load coil to provide a discharge circuit for the energy stored in the electromagnetic coil, thereby suppressing the transient shutdown voltage of the coil.

[0026] This solution aims at the wear of the dynamic and static contacts, the drop of the energy storage control power supply, and the abnormal ADC sampling during the closing process of the energy storage contactor. The present invention adopts the PWM voltage regulation control type with increasing and decreasing duty cycle adjustment, which can effectively reduce the violent collision of the dynamic and static iron cores, reduce the impact of the energy storage control power supply drop and ADC sampling, and greatly improve the service life of the energy storage contactor and the trouble-free operation time (MTBF) of the energy storage equipment; In view of the large energy consumption and high temperature rise of the energy storage contactor during the holding process, the present invention adopts a voltage reduction and holding (voltage reduction and half-voltage holding) method for energy storage power supply during the holding process. By voltage reduction and holding (half-voltage holding) of energy storage power supply during the holding process, the power consumption and temperature rise of the contactor during the holding process are reduced to achieve energy-saving control of the contactor. In view of the instantaneous voltage spike when the energy storage contactor is turned off and the ADC sampling interference, the present invention adopts the diode freewheeling method, connects a diode in parallel at both ends of the inductive load coil, and provides a discharge circuit for the energy stored in the electromagnetic coil, thereby reducing the transient voltage of the coil. The diode is connected in series at both ends of the electromagnetic coil to assist in eliminating the voltage spike when the coil is turned off.

[0027] This solution controls the coil voltage during the core closing process based on the PWM_Drive drive signal to suppress closing collision; during the holding process, half-voltage is maintained to control the coil current to achieve energy-saving control; during the opening process, diodes and resistors are connected in parallel at both ends of the coil to suppress the transient turn-off voltage spike of the coil; and it also has overvoltage protection.
