[0048] In order to make the purpose, features, and advantages of the invention of this application more obvious and easy to understand, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0049] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the embodiments of the present application, the meaning of "multiple" is two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0050] In the embodiments of the present application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected", "fixed" and the like should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral one; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0051] In the embodiments of the present application, Figure 6 As shown in FIG. 1 , the converters in the multi-terminal flexible DC system are mostly full-half-bridge hybrid structures, and the hybrid modular multilevel converter MMC also follows the topological structure of the MMC, such as Figure 7 As shown in the figure, the power module of each bridge arm is composed of a part of half-bridge power modules and a part of full-bridge power modules. The DC fault clearing capability and step-down operation capability of the hybrid modular multilevel converter MMC are related to the proportion of full-bridge power modules. The higher the proportion of full-bridge power modules, the better the DC fault clearing capability and the stronger the step-down operation capability.

[0052] like Figure 8 In the topological structure of the half-bridge modular multilevel converter MMC shown in the figure, when the DC line fails, the transient current development of the half-bridge MMC converter valve is divided into two stages, namely before the IGBT tube is locked and after the IGBT is locked. Before the IGBT tube is locked, the equivalent circuit of the converter valve is as follows: Fig. 9 As shown in the figure, at this stage, the power module discharges to the short-circuit fault point through the turned-on IGBT tube. The discharge current rise rate is very high, so that the bridge arm current of the converter valve can exceed the maximum repeatable shutdown current of the IGBT tube within a few milliseconds or even hundreds of microseconds. Therefore, it is generally necessary to lock the converter valve as soon as possible to ensure that the IGBT tube can be reliably shut down to avoid damage to the converter valve. The equivalent circuit of the converter valve after the IGBT tube is locked is as follows Fig.10As shown in the figure, at this stage, the AC system, the anti-parallel diode of the power module, and the DC short-circuit fault point form a path, as shown in the dotted line path in the figure; at this stage, the anti-parallel diode not only needs to withstand a large short-circuit current stress, the peak value generally reaches more than ten kiloamperes, but also must have sufficient melting thermal energy value I2t capacity. Therefore, the diode needs to be specially designed, and existing projects generally use auxiliary thyristors for shunting or increase the current carrying capacity of the diode.

[0053] Since the AC system of the flexible DC can still feed short-circuit current to the fault point through the anti-parallel diode after the half-bridge MMC is locked, the AC circuit breaker must be tripped to isolate the electrical connection between the AC power supply and the fault point to clear the DC fault and restore the insulation of the fault point. During the restart phase of the DC system of the flexible DC after the fault is cleared, it is necessary to go through the stages of closing and charging the AC circuit breaker, exiting the starting resistor, and unlocking the converter valve, which takes a long time, generally several minutes or even dozens of minutes. Figure 7 As shown, the biggest advantage of the full-bridge MMC power module over the half-bridge power module is that it is more flexible in operation and can output negative voltage levels. The full-bridge MMC has a wider DC voltage regulation range and can achieve continuous and smooth rise and fall of the DC voltage between the negative rated value and the positive rated value. This feature meets the requirements of 70%, 80% or even lower step-down operation of long-distance DC transmission and rapid step-down restart after DC faults.

[0054] In the locked state, the equivalent circuit of the full-bridge MMC is as follows: Fig.11 Taking phases A and C as an example, at this time, regardless of the forward bridge arm current or the reverse bridge arm direction, the voltage applied to the anode and cathode of diodes D1~D4 is: , where U ac_peak is the peak value of the AC line voltage, U c It is the sum of the capacitor voltages of all power modules in each bridge arm of the full-bridge MMC. In the design phase of the main circuit parameters of the converter station, U ac_peak Less than 0.866U c , so diodes D2 and D3 will be cut off due to the reverse voltage. It is precisely because of this characteristic that the full-bridge MMC has the ability to self-clear DC faults.

[0055] The full-bridge MMC uses its own blocking characteristics to provide a back electromotive force with the opposite polarity to the AC power supply voltage in the blocking state, promoting the rapid attenuation of the DC fault current. The entire process does not require the AC circuit breaker to be tripped, and there is no mechanical switch operation, so the fault clearing speed is relatively fast. During the restart phase of the flexible DC system, the converter is unlocked again and the DC voltage is gradually established. This process also does not require mechanical switch operation, so a fast restart can be achieved.

[0056] The embodiments of the present application provide a fault clearing device and a method, device and equipment for clearing faults on the DC side of ultra-long-distance multi-terminal transmission, which solves the technical problem that the existing flexible DC uses a full half-bridge hybrid structure to clear DC faults, but this method has the problem of converter tripping and causing unstable operation of flexible DC transmission.

[0057] Embodiment 1:

[0058] Figure 1 This is a topological diagram of the connection between the multi-terminal flexible DC system and the fault clearing device according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 Schematic diagram of a circuit of a fault clearing device according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0059] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a fault clearing device, which is applied to a multi-terminal flexible DC system. The multi-terminal flexible DC system includes multiple sending modules 2, each sending module 2 includes two converter stations 21 and a grounding electrode line 22, and the two converter stations 21 are respectively connected to the grounding electrode line 22 and then connected to the grounding electrode 23. The fault clearing device includes a grounding unit 24 connected to the grounding electrode line 22, and the grounding unit 24 includes a transformer 241, a lightning arrester 242 and a resistor 243. The primary side of the transformer 241 is respectively connected to the grounding electrode 23 and the grounding electrode line 22, and the lightning arrester 242 is connected in series with the resistor 243 and then connected to the secondary side of the transformer 241; the lightning arrester 242 is used to control the input and removal of the resistor 243; the resistor 243 is used to consume energy.

[0060] It should be noted that the grounding unit 24 is installed between the grounding electrode line 22 and the grounding electrode 23 of the multi-terminal flexible DC system. The grounding unit 24 uses an AC transformer 241. When a stable DC current is connected to the multi-terminal flexible DC system, the secondary side of the transformer 241 will not induce voltage and current, thereby not causing the action of the lightning arrester 242. However, during the transient operation of the multi-terminal flexible DC system, the transient process can be induced to the secondary side through the magnetic field of the transformer 241, and the secondary side of the transformer 241 generates a higher voltage, causing the lightning arrester 242 to act, thereby putting the resistor 243 into operation to damp the fault current.

[0061] In the embodiment of the present application, the grounding unit 24 uses the primary side of the transformer 241 to be connected between the grounding electrode 23 and the grounding electrode line 22, and the secondary side of the transformer 241 is connected in series with a lightning arrester 242 and a resistor 243. Since a large DC current flows into the primary side of the transformer 241, it is very easy to cause saturation of the ferromagnetic material, so the transformer 241 adopts a hollow structure, that is, only the magnetic field coupling between the air is used. In addition, the turns ratio of the primary side winding and the secondary side winding of the transformer 241 is N: 1, N = 0.01 ~ 0.05, thereby effectively increasing the secondary side AC voltage of the transformer 241 and reducing the secondary side AC current of the transformer 241.

[0062] In the embodiment of the present application, the lightning arrester 242 is used to control the switching on and off of the resistor 243 to prevent the resistor 242 from affecting the multi-terminal flexible DC system when it is switched on in a stable state.

[0063] In the embodiment of the present application, the resistor 243 is used to consume transient energy.

[0064] The present application provides a fault clearing device, which is applied to a multi-terminal flexible DC system. The multi-terminal flexible DC system includes multiple sending modules, each sending module includes two converter stations and a grounding electrode line, the two converter stations are respectively connected to the grounding electrode line and then connected to the grounding electrode, the fault clearing device includes a grounding unit connected to the grounding electrode line, the grounding unit includes a transformer, a lightning arrester and a resistor, the primary side of the transformer is respectively connected to the grounding electrode and the grounding electrode line, the lightning arrester is connected in series with the resistor and then connected to the secondary side of the transformer; the lightning arrester is used to control the input and removal of the resistor; the resistor is used to consume energy. The fault clearing device is connected to the sending module of the multi-terminal flexible DC system in a high-resistance grounding manner. After a DC fault occurs in the multi-terminal flexible DC system, due to the existence of the high grounding resistance, the fault current is reduced, and the energy after the fault is quickly consumed by the resistor, thereby achieving the purpose of clearing the fault current, solving the problem that the existing flexible DC uses a full half-bridge hybrid structure to clear DC faults, but this method has the technical problem of unstable operation of flexible DC transmission caused by converter tripping.

[0065] Embodiment 2:

[0066] Figure 3 This is a flowchart of the steps of the method for clearing DC side faults for ultra-long-distance multi-terminal transmission described in an embodiment of the present application.

[0067] like Figure 3 As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides a method for clearing a DC side fault with ultra-long-distance multi-terminal transmission, which is applied to the above-mentioned fault clearing device. The DC side fault clearing method includes the following steps:

[0068] S1. Obtain the electrical quantity parameters of the multi-terminal flexible DC system and the operating status of each transmission module.

[0069] It should be noted that the content of the fault clearing device has been described in Example 1, and the content of the fault clearing device will not be described again in this embodiment. In step S1, the electrical quantity parameters of the multi-terminal flexible DC system and the operating status of each sending module are obtained to provide data for subsequent steps. In this embodiment, the electrical quantity parameters include the fault current reduction multiple, the length of the grounding electrode line, the inductance per unit length of the grounding electrode, the mutual inductance value, the fault current drop time, the safety factor, the transformation ratio, the transformer primary winding self-inductance, the fault current rise rate, the maximum DC current, the rated DC voltage, and the total length of the DC transmission line, the inductance per unit length, and the capacitance per unit length to the ground.

[0070] S2. Determine the operating parameters of the grounding unit according to the electrical quantity parameters, the operating parameters including the rated voltage of the lightning arrester and the maximum operating power and resistance value of the resistor.

[0071] It should be noted that in step S2, the operating parameters of the grounding unit connected to the multi-terminal flexible DC system in a high-resistance grounding manner are first determined according to the electrical quantity parameters obtained in step S1 to provide data for subsequent steps.

[0072] S3. Control the grounding unit corresponding to the sending module according to the operating status to determine whether it works according to the operating parameters.

[0073] It should be noted that in step S3, it is determined whether the grounding unit connected to the corresponding sending module is working according to the operating status of the sending module obtained in step S1.

[0074] S4. If the operation state is a stable operation state, the corresponding grounding unit is controlled not to work; if the operation state is a transient operation state, the grounding unit is controlled to work according to the operation parameters to consume energy.

[0075] It should be noted that in step S4, the operation is performed according to the result of the judgment in step S3 to ensure the stability of the operation of the multi-terminal flexible DC system. In this embodiment, controlling the grounding unit to work according to the operating parameters to consume energy includes: controlling the arrester of the grounding unit to start at the rated voltage, and the resistor to work at the maximum operating power and resistance value to consume energy.

[0076] The present application provides a method for clearing faults on the DC side of ultra-long-distance multi-terminal transmission, which is applied to the above-mentioned fault clearing device.

After a DC fault occurs in the multi-terminal flexible DC system, the DC side fault clearing method of ultra-long-distance multi-terminal transmission reduces the fault current due to the presence of the grounding unit, and quickly consumes the energy after the fault, thereby achieving the purpose of clearing the fault current, solving the technical problem that the existing flexible DC uses a full half-bridge hybrid structure to clear DC faults, but this method has the problem of unstable operation of flexible DC transmission due to converter tripping.

[0077] In one embodiment of the present application, determining the operating parameters of the grounding unit according to the electrical quantity parameters includes:

[0079] The resistance value of the resistor is obtained by calculating the maximum DC current, rated DC voltage, total length, inductance per unit length and capacitance per unit length to ground of the DC transmission line.

[0080] The maximum operating power of the resistor is calculated based on the fault current reduction multiple of the electrical quantity parameters, the grounding electrode line length, the grounding electrode inductance per unit length, the mutual inductance value and the fault current drop time.

[0081] It should be noted that the fault current reduction factor can be 4 to 5, the safety factor can be 0.8 to 0.9, and the transformation ratio can be 0.01 to 0.05.

[0082] In the embodiment of the present application, the rated voltage of the arrester is calculated by using the voltage formula according to the safety factor of the electrical quantity parameters, the transformation ratio, the self-inductance of the primary winding of the transformer, and the fault current rise rate; the resistance value of the resistor is calculated by using the resistance formula according to the maximum DC current, the rated DC voltage, and the total length of the DC transmission line, the inductance per unit length, and the capacitance per unit length to the ground of the electrical quantity parameters; the maximum operating power of the resistor is calculated by using the power formula according to the fault current reduction multiple, the grounding electrode line length, the grounding electrode inductance per unit length, the mutual inductance, and the fault current drop time of the electrical quantity parameters.
