[0032] Embodiment 1

[0033] Figure 1A is a flow chart of a control method of a DC microgrid provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention; Figure 1B is a schematic diagram of a target duty cycle determination process provided in the first embodiment of the present invention; Figure 1C Schematic diagram of parallel control structure provided by Embodiment 1 of the present invention; This embodiment is applicable to the case of coordinated control of bus voltage, photovoltaic unit, energy storage unit and grid-connected unit in a microgrid. The method can be executed by a control device of a DC microgrid. The control device of the DC microgrid can be implemented in the form of hardware and / or software. The control device of the DC microgrid can be configured in an electronic device, such as a master control device of a power grid, and executed by a microgrid system, such as Figure 1A As shown, the control method of the DC microgrid includes:

[0034] S101. Construct a hierarchical control architecture corresponding to the DC microgrid according to the dispatch management layer, the bus voltage control layer and the converter control layer.

[0035] Among them, the dispatch management layer is used to predict and dispatch data such as bus voltage in the DC microgrid, and generate dispatch instructions to instruct the bus voltage control layer to coordinate the bus voltage. This level involves long-term dispatch and planning to meet energy demand and market operation, usually at the hour to day level. The bus voltage control layer is mainly used to coordinate the DC bus voltage (DC Bus voltage Signaling, DBS) to maintain bus voltage stability and system power balance. This layer is usually in the short or medium time scale (minute to hour level) to ensure the voltage stability of the node. The converter control layer is used to determine and adjust the converters of the photovoltaic unit, energy storage unit and grid-connected unit, respectively, to achieve coordinated control of the photovoltaic unit, energy storage unit and grid-connected unit. The hierarchical control architecture corresponding to the DC microgrid refers to the hierarchical control architecture based on the physical characteristics of the DC microgrid, which can specifically include the dispatch management layer, bus voltage control layer and converter control layer. The DC microgrid includes photovoltaic units, energy storage units and grid-connected units, and the grid-connected unit includes a grid-connected inverter.

[0036] Optionally, corresponding functions can be configured for the dispatching management layer, the bus voltage control layer and the converter control layer, and a hierarchical control architecture corresponding to the DC microgrid can be constructed based on the structural relationship between the dispatching management layer, the bus voltage control layer and the converter control layer, so as to realize coordinated control of different functional modules in the DC microgrid based on the hierarchical control architecture.

[0037] S102. The bus voltage in the DC microgrid is coordinated and controlled by adopting a corresponding control strategy according to a required threshold range of the bus voltage through the bus voltage control layer in the hierarchical control architecture.

[0038] The threshold range may be a first range, a second range, a third range or a fourth range. The first range may be 720V to 740V, the second range may be 700V to 720V, the third range may be 680V to 700V, and the fourth range may be 660V to 680V. The control strategy refers to a strategy for coordinated control of the operation modes of the grid-connected inverter, the energy storage unit and the photovoltaic unit. Specifically, it may be a strategy for coordinated control of the bus voltage by using at least one of the dominant bus voltages of the photovoltaic unit, the grid-connected inverter and the energy storage unit when connected to the grid and off the grid.

[0039] Optionally, the microgrid system may perform coordinated control operations on the bus voltage in the DC microgrid by calling the bus voltage control layer in the hierarchical control architecture.

[0040] Optionally, according to the required threshold range of the bus voltage, a corresponding control strategy is adopted to coordinate the control of the bus voltage in the DC microgrid, including: according to the required threshold range of the bus voltage, the control strategy for the DC microgrid when connected to the grid and off the grid is determined respectively, so as to coordinate the use of at least one of the photovoltaic unit, the grid-connected inverter and the energy storage unit to dominate the bus voltage and realize the coordinated control of the bus voltage in the DC microgrid.

[0041] Optionally, according to the required threshold range of the bus voltage, the control strategies of the DC microgrid when connected to the grid and when off the grid are determined respectively, so as to coordinate the use of at least one of the photovoltaic unit, the grid-connected inverter and the energy storage unit to dominate the bus voltage and realize the coordinated control of the bus voltage in the DC microgrid, including:

[0042] (1) If the required threshold range of the bus voltage is the first range, the grid-connected inverter and the energy storage unit are monitored respectively when connected to the grid and when off the grid, so as to control the photovoltaic unit to dominate the bus voltage when the corresponding conditions are met;

[0043] Exemplarily, when connected to the grid, if it is detected that the grid-connected inverter has reached its upper limit and the energy storage unit has reached its charging power upper limit, the photovoltaic unit is controlled to reduce power to enter a droop control mode to dominate the bus voltage; when off the grid, if it is detected that the energy storage unit has reached its charging upper limit, the photovoltaic unit is controlled to droop to dominate the bus voltage by limiting power operation.

[0044] (2) If the required threshold range of the bus voltage is the second range, the energy storage unit and the photovoltaic unit are monitored when connected to the grid, so as to control the dominant bus voltage of the grid-connected inverter when the corresponding conditions are met;

[0045] Exemplarily, when connected to the grid, if it is detected that the energy storage unit has reached the upper limit of the charging power and the photovoltaic unit is operating in the maximum power generation power mode (Maximum Power Point Tracking, MPPT), the grid-connected inverter is controlled to operate in the droop control mode, dominating the bus voltage; when off the grid, there is no functional unit that dominates the bus, and the bus voltage drops until it is in the third range.

[0046] (3) If the required threshold range of the bus voltage is the third range, when connected to the grid, the working modes of the photovoltaic unit, the grid-connected inverter and the energy storage unit are controlled to achieve a common dominant bus voltage, and when off-grid, the working modes of the photovoltaic unit and the energy storage unit are controlled to achieve a common dominant bus voltage;

[0047] For example, when connected to the grid, if it is detected that the photovoltaic unit is operating in the maximum power generation mode, the grid-connected inverter and the energy storage unit can be controlled to operate in the droop control mode to jointly dominate the bus voltage; when off the grid, if it is detected that the photovoltaic unit is operating in the MPPT mode, the energy storage unit can be controlled to operate in the droop control mode for charging to dominate the bus voltage.

[0048] (4) If the required threshold range of the bus voltage is the fourth range, then when connected to the grid, the grid-connected inverter is monitored to control the photovoltaic unit and the energy storage unit to dominate the bus voltage when the corresponding conditions are met, and when off-grid, the working mode of the photovoltaic unit and the energy storage unit is controlled to achieve a common dominant bus voltage.

[0049] Exemplarily, when connected to the grid, if it is detected that the grid-connected inverter has reached the upper limit of rectification, the photovoltaic unit is controlled to operate in the MPPT maximum power generation mode, and the energy storage unit is controlled to operate in the droop control discharge mode to achieve dominant bus power generation; when off the grid, the photovoltaic unit is controlled to operate in the MPPT discharge mode, and the energy storage unit is controlled to operate in the droop control discharge mode, so as to jointly dominate the bus voltage.

[0050] It should be noted that, by setting different voltage requirement threshold ranges, the present invention can enable each converter to take on the responsibility of controlling the dominant bus voltage in turn as the DC bus voltage in the microgrid system drops, thereby maximizing photovoltaic power generation and realizing distributed energy voltage regulation and energy-saving operation mode.

[0051] S103, through the converter control layer in the hierarchical control architecture, respectively determine the interface converters corresponding to the photovoltaic unit, energy storage unit and grid-connected unit in the DC microgrid, and use the corresponding interface converters to achieve coordinated control of the photovoltaic unit, energy storage unit and grid-connected unit.

[0052] Among them, the interface converters corresponding to the photovoltaic unit, energy storage unit and grid-connected unit in the DC microgrid can be a boost chopper converter (Boost Chopper), a DC-DC (DC / DC) converter and a voltage-type three-phase bridge inverter circuit respectively.

[0053] Optionally, the DC / DC converter corresponding to the photovoltaic unit needs to have an MPPT mode and a droop control mode; the bidirectional DC / DC converter corresponding to the energy storage unit needs to have a current limiting charging and discharging mode and a droop control mode; the grid-connected inverter needs to have a current limiting inversion / rectification mode and a droop control mode.

[0054] Optionally, the interface converters corresponding to the photovoltaic unit, the energy storage unit and the grid-connected unit in the DC microgrid are respectively determined, and the corresponding interface converters are used to realize the coordinated control of the photovoltaic unit, the energy storage unit and the grid-connected unit, including:

[0055] (1) The interface converter of the photovoltaic unit in the DC microgrid is determined to be a boost chopper BOOST converter, and based on the maximum power point tracking MPPT controller and BOOST converter, the operating point of the photovoltaic array is adjusted to achieve coordinated control of the photovoltaic unit.

[0056] Optionally, based on the maximum power point tracking MPPT controller and the BOOST converter, the operating point of the photovoltaic array is adjusted to achieve coordinated control of the photovoltaic units, including: determining the output voltage and output current of the photovoltaic array by sampling, and determining whether the duty cycle adjustment conditions are met through the MPPT controller based on the output voltage and output current; if so, adjusting the current duty cycle to obtain a target duty cycle, and inputting the target duty cycle into the BOOST converter to adjust the operating point of the photovoltaic array to achieve coordinated control of the photovoltaic units.

[0057] The target duty cycle may be the difference between the current duty cycle Dk and the duty cycle adjustment step Dstp, or may be the sum of the current duty cycle Dk and the duty cycle adjustment step Dstp.

[0058] It should be noted that the output voltage of the photovoltaic array is usually less than the reference value of the DC bus voltage, so it needs to be boosted by a Boost converter to reach or exceed the reference value of the DC bus voltage. This selection is based on the boost characteristics of the Boost converter.

[0059] Exemplarily, the IU relationship at the output end of the photovoltaic array can be expressed as:

[0060]

[0061] Among them, U PV is the input voltage of the Boost converter, i.e. the output voltage of the photovoltaic array; I PV is the input current of the Boost converter, i.e. the output current of the photovoltaic array; I out Represents the output current of the Boost converter; U out represents the output voltage of the Boost converter; D represents the duty cycle in the Boost converter.

[0062] Optionally, the U output of the PV array can be determined by system sampling PV and I PV , and then the duty cycle D is calculated by the MPPT controller and input into the Boost converter, thereby changing the operating point of the photovoltaic array.

[0063] Optional, see Figure 1B The output voltage and output current of the photovoltaic array at the current moment can be determined by system sampling, that is, U k and I kRespectively refers to the output voltage U PV and output current I PV At the current moment, further, according to the output voltage and output current U of the photovoltaic array at the current moment k and I k The product of is used to determine the output power of the photovoltaic array at the current moment, and finally the difference between the output power at the current moment and the output power at the previous moment, that is, the power change ΔP. In addition, according to the output voltage of the photovoltaic array at the current moment and the previous moment, the voltage change ΔU is determined.

[0064] Optionally, after determining the power change ΔP and the voltage change ΔU, it can be determined whether the power change ΔP is equal to 0. If so, the process ends without further processing. If not, it is further determined whether the product of the power change ΔP and the voltage change ΔU is greater than zero. If so, the difference between the current duty cycle Dk and the duty cycle adjustment step Dstp is determined as the duty cycle D at the next moment. k+1 If not, the sum of the current duty cycle Dk and the duty cycle adjustment step Dstp is determined as the duty cycle D at the next moment. k+1 .

[0065] It should be noted that after the target duty cycle is input into the BOOST converter, if the target duty cycle is obtained by summing, that is, when the duty cycle increases, the output voltage of the Boost converter will increase, the output voltage of the photovoltaic array will decrease, and the output current of the photovoltaic array will increase, so that the operating point of the photovoltaic array will move to the left; if the target duty cycle is obtained by difference, that is, when the duty cycle decreases, the output voltage of the Boost converter will decrease, the output voltage of the photovoltaic array will increase, and the output current of the photovoltaic array will decrease, so that the operating point of the photovoltaic array will move to the right, thereby realizing coordinated control of the photovoltaic units.

[0066] (2) Determine that the interface converter of the energy storage unit in the DC microgrid is a DC-DC converter, and based on the DC / DC converter, adopt a droop control mode and a voltage-current dual closed-loop structure to achieve coordinated control of the energy storage unit;

[0067] Among them, the DC / DC converter has two working states: Boost and Buck, which can meet the bidirectional charging and discharging requirements of the energy storage unit.

[0068] For example, based on the control strategy of the droop control mode, the input reference voltage and the photovoltaic output current can be subjected to IV droop control, and then the reference current of the battery charge and discharge current inner loop is output through the PI (Proportion Integration) controller and the limiter. Secondly, the on-off duty ratio of the switch tubes S1 and S2, i.e. D1 and D2, is obtained through the output of the PI controller. At the same time, the battery is introduced to consider its load state (State of Charge, SOC) to prevent the battery from being overcharged or over-discharged.

[0069] Among them, D1 and D2 respectively represent the charging process and discharging process of the battery. By adjusting D1 and D2 to control the on and off time of the switch tube, the efficient operation of the battery in different working conditions can be controlled.

[0070] (3) The interface converter of the grid-connected unit in the DC microgrid is determined to be a voltage-type three-phase bridge inverter circuit. Based on the voltage-type three-phase bridge inverter circuit, a droop control outer loop and a voltage-current dual-loop controller are combined to achieve coordinated control of the grid-connected unit.

[0071] Among them, the grid-connected unit interface design in the present invention includes a voltage-type three-phase bridge inverter circuit and a DC microgrid DC / AC (direct current-alternating current) inverter; specifically, the interface converter of the grid-connected unit is determined to be a voltage-type three-phase bridge inverter circuit, because this inverter can efficiently convert direct current into alternating current, and its output voltage and frequency can be accurately adjusted through a control strategy to achieve synchronous grid connection with the large power grid.

[0072] It should be noted that the voltage-type three-phase bridge inverter circuit, as the interface converter of the grid-connected unit, can efficiently convert DC power into AC power, and output voltage and frequency to achieve synchronization with the large power grid. At the same time, the use of the droop control outer loop and the dq (voltage and current dual-loop controller) current inner loop control can ensure the power quality and load balancing, thereby optimizing the connection and operation of the DC microgrid and the large power grid.

[0073] Optionally, the present invention can also improve the grid-connected efficiency of the grid-connected unit through a parallel control strategy of multiple virtual synchronous generator inverters. Specifically, it includes: constructing a parallel control structure based on at least two virtual synchronous generators VSG; based on the parallel control structure, according to the relationship between the moment of inertia, damping coefficient, active power parameters and reactive power parameters, reasonably distributing the output power of multiple virtual synchronous generators to achieve grid-connected operation of the grid-connected unit.

[0074] The virtual synchronous generator (VSG) refers to a VSG inverter used for grid-connected operation, which is used to improve the dynamic response capability and stability of the microgrid system. The parallel control structure can specifically be a topology structure in which multiple VSG inverters are connected in parallel to the load.

[0075] For example, see Figure 1C , E 1 、E 2 ,…,E n Respectively represent access to VSG 1 、VSG 2 、…、VSG n The input voltage of the port passes through the line resistance reactance R on the VSG side 1 +jX 1 , R 2 +jX 2 , …, R n +jX n After that, it is connected in parallel to the external circuit load, I 1 ,I 2 ,…,I n Respectively represent VSG 1 、VSG 2 、…、VSG n The output port current.

[0076] It should be noted that the connection method of the line of the present invention is not directly connected to the large power grid, but to a variable load, and the microgrid system operates in off-grid mode. In this way, the microgrid system can operate independently of the main power grid, and can rely on the internal distributed power supply (ie, VSG inverter) and the connected load to achieve independent power supply and management.

[0077] Exemplarily, the relationship between the moment of inertia, the damping coefficient, the active power parameter, and the reactive power parameter can be expressed by the following formula:

[0078]

[0079] Among them, J 1 and D 1 They refer to the moment of inertia and damping coefficient of the No. 1 virtual synchronous machine respectively; J 2 and D 2 They refer to the moment of inertia and damping coefficient of the No. 2 virtual synchronous machine respectively; K w1 and K w2 K is the active power parameter of virtual synchronous machine No. 1 and virtual synchronous machine No. 2, that is, the active power-frequency (Pf) link coefficient. v1 and K v2is the reactive power parameter of the No. 1 virtual synchronous machine and the No. 2 virtual synchronous machine, that is, the reactive power-voltage regulation (QE) link coefficient Kv. n is the acceleration factor of the control link. The active power parameter can be the active power-frequency (Pf) link coefficient, and the reactive power parameter can be the reactive power-voltage regulation (QE) link coefficient.

[0080] Optionally, based on the parallel control structure, according to the relationship between the moment of inertia, damping coefficient, active power parameters and reactive power parameters, that is, in the off-grid operation of multiple VSG inverters connected in parallel to the load, the active-frequency (Pf) link coefficient Kw can be set proportional to the moment of inertia J, the damping coefficient D and the system set capacity; the reactive-voltage regulation (QE) link coefficient Kv can be set inversely proportional to the moment of inertia J and the damping coefficient D and the system set capacity.

[0081] For example, the active power-frequency Pf control link coefficient K w It can be determined by the following formula:

[0082]

[0083] Among them, n is the acceleration factor of the control link; C is the power distribution balance control constant; K w K is the active power-frequency Pf control link coefficient; w * is the set value of the active power-frequency control loop.

[0084] Optional, adjustment constant C, active power K w Specifically, when the constant C decreases, the active frequency control coefficient K w The active power K of the virtual synchronous machine also decreases. w1 and K w2 As the damping coefficient D and the moment of inertia J between the two virtual synchronous machines change, the ratio of the damping coefficient D and the moment of inertia J between the two virtual synchronous machines also changes. At the same time, if the damping coefficient is large, it will adjust the output power and suppress power oscillation faster when the load changes; otherwise, it will cause slow response to load changes and less power adjustment. Therefore, the design of the damping coefficient can change the load response and power oscillation capabilities, thereby achieving the expected balance state of the power distribution load between the VSGs.

[0085] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention constructs a hierarchical control architecture corresponding to the DC microgrid according to the dispatch management layer, the bus voltage control layer and the converter control layer; through the bus voltage control layer in the hierarchical control architecture, according to the required threshold range of the bus voltage, a corresponding control strategy is adopted to coordinate the bus voltage in the DC microgrid; through the converter control layer in the hierarchical control architecture, the interface converters corresponding to the photovoltaic unit, energy storage unit and grid-connected unit in the DC microgrid are respectively determined, and the corresponding interface converters are adopted to realize the coordinated control of the photovoltaic unit, energy storage unit and grid-connected unit. By coordinating and controlling different functional units in the microgrid, the operating efficiency of the microgrid can be improved while ensuring the stable operation of the microgrid.

[0086] Embodiment 2

[0087] Figure 2A This is a control flow diagram of a DC microgrid provided by Embodiment 2 of the present invention; Figure 2B It is a schematic diagram of the hierarchical control structure provided in the second embodiment of the present invention; based on the above embodiment, this embodiment provides a preferred solution for coordinating and controlling the microgrid through the scheduling management layer, the bus voltage control layer and the converter control layer.

[0088] like Figure 2A As shown, the method may include the following process:

[0089] Step A: Hierarchical architecture design, specifically constructing the hierarchical control architecture corresponding to the DC microgrid, which includes the dispatch management layer, bus voltage control layer and converter control layer. The dispatch management layer is used to send the results of the forecast dispatch to the bus voltage control layer, and the bus voltage control layer is used to adjust the distribution voltage and output it to the converter control layer. The converter control layer is used to design the parallel control structure of the grid-connected unit.

[0090] Step B: Through the bus voltage control layer, set the voltage threshold and determine the operation mode of each functional unit to perform bus voltage control.

[0091] Step C: Converter control, by determining the interface converters corresponding to the photovoltaic unit, the energy storage unit and the grid-connected unit, to achieve converter control, wherein the photovoltaic unit may include a BOOST circuit, an MPPT and a droop control.

[0092] Optionally, step C may include the following processes: S11, determine that the interface converter of the photovoltaic unit is a BOOST circuit; S12, control the voltage and current output by the photovoltaic array in the photovoltaic unit through MPPT and BOOST circuits. Specifically, the MPPT control process can be used to control the photovoltaic array output voltage UPV, and the droop control method can be used to determine the output voltage. S21, determine that the interface converter of the energy storage unit is a DC / DC converter, and use IV droop control and voltage-current dual closed loops to achieve control of the energy storage unit. S31, determine the interface converter of the grid-connected unit, and use the droop control outer loop and the dq current inner loop to achieve control.

[0093] Step D: Improve the operation performance of the grid-connected unit based on VSG technical support.
