Abstract

The application discloses a topology structure and a modulation method of a partial power control type energy storage system. The topology structure of a second full-bridge converter in an existing isolated DC / DC converter is improved, and the dead time of a switch tube in the second full-bridge converter is improved to be the overlapping conduction time of the switch tube. In the time, the upper and lower switches of the half-bridge are simultaneously conducted, so that the freewheeling path for the charging and discharging current of the energy storage system is ensured during the alternate conduction of the switch tubes of the second full-bridge converter. The characteristic that the overall phase shift of the driving signals of the isolated DC / DC converter on the energy storage branch will cause the same phase shift angle of the ripple current of the filter inductor is utilized. By adjusting the overall phase shift angle of the driving signals of the isolated DC / DC converter on each energy storage branch, the occurrence time intervals of the current peak value or the valley value of the filter inductor of each energy storage branch are distributed in the switching period Ts, the current wave peak and the wave valley among the energy storage branches are cancelled, and the DC bus current ripple is reduced.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of energy storage system control technology, and in particular to the topology and modulation method of a partial power control type energy storage system. Background Technology

[0002] Under the "dual carbon" background, my country is accelerating the construction of a new power system based on renewable energy. With the increasing penetration rate of new energy sources, the randomness, volatility, and intermittency of wind and solar power output are having a growing impact on the safe, stable, and efficient operation of the power system. Energy storage is a key technology for solving these problems. Energy storage systems can not only effectively mitigate the volatility caused by large-scale renewable energy grid integration and promote the balance of power sources and loads in power system operation, but also enhance the peak-shaving capacity of the distribution network, reduce the impact on the distribution network, and promote the efficient local consumption of distributed renewable energy.

[0003] Existing power-controlled energy storage systems consist of multiple energy storage branches and DC / AC converters, such as... Figure 1 As shown, each energy storage branch consists of a battery cluster, an isolated DC / DC converter, and a filter inductor. The filter inductor, the output of the isolated DC / DC converter, and the battery cluster are connected in series. Multiple energy storage branches are connected in parallel to form a common DC bus for the energy storage system. The common DC bus serves as the input to the isolated DC / DC converters within the multiple energy storage branches and achieves grid-connected operation of the energy storage system through a DC / AC converter. This energy storage system uses an isolated DC / DC converter as a partial power controller. This partial power controller has advantages such as simple modulation method and topology, high stability, and low system cost. However, existing partial power control type energy storage systems rely on the output capacitor C of the partial power controller to provide a freewheeling path for the charging and discharging current of the energy storage system. Figure 2 As shown, there are problems such as high cost and high stress on components. At the same time, common DC bus energy storage systems often use multiple energy storage branches in parallel to increase the power level. The DC bus current suffers from the problem of peak-to-peak value doubling due to the overlapping of the peaks and troughs of the currents of multiple energy storage branches. The DC bus current has large ripple, resulting in large DC bus voltage ripple. Suppressing the DC bus voltage ripple requires increasing the value of the filter inductance of the energy storage branch or the DC bus capacitor value, which is costly. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The partial power control type energy storage system to which this invention applies consists of a DC / AC converter and multiple energy storage branches. The AC side of the DC / AC converter is connected to the power grid, and multiple energy storage branches are connected in parallel to the main DC bus of the DC / AC converter. Each energy storage branch consists of a filter inductor, an isolated DC / DC converter, and a battery pack. The filter inductor, the output terminal of the isolated DC / DC converter, and the battery pack are connected in series and then connected in parallel as a whole to the main DC bus of the DC / AC converter. The input terminals of each isolated DC / DC converter are connected in parallel to the main DC bus or one of the multiple DC buses of the DC / AC converter. When the input terminals of each isolated DC / DC converter are connected in parallel to one of the multiple DC buses, the input terminals of each isolated DC / DC converter are evenly connected in parallel to each DC bus to balance the input and output power of each DC bus.

[0005] The present invention proposes an isolated DC / DC converter topology for a partially power controlled energy storage system with unipolar output voltage, as follows: Figure 3As shown. This topology consists of two full-bridge converters interconnected by an isolation transformer. The first full-bridge converter F1, connected to the primary side of the isolation transformer, is composed of a first half-bridge H1 and a second half-bridge H2. The first switch T1 and the second switch T2 form the first half-bridge H1, and the third switch T3 and the fourth switch T4 form the second half-bridge H2. The second full-bridge converter F2, connected to the secondary side of the isolation transformer, is composed of a third half-bridge H3 and a fourth half-bridge H4. The fifth switch T5 and the sixth switch T6 form the third half-bridge H3, and the seventh switch T7 and the eighth switch T8 form the fourth half-bridge H4. The source of the first switch T1 and the drain of the second switch T2 are interconnected, forming the first half-bridge H3 on the primary side of the isolation transformer. A first AC connection point P1 on the primary side of the isolation transformer is directly connected to one end of the primary side of the isolation transformer, or connected in series with a capacitor. The source of the third switch T3 and the drain of the fourth switch T4 are connected to each other, forming the second AC connection point P2 on the primary side of the isolation transformer. The second AC connection point P2 on the primary side of the isolation transformer is directly connected to the other end of the primary side of the isolation transformer, or connected in series with a capacitor. The source of the fifth switch T5 and the drain of the sixth switch T6 are connected to each other, forming the third AC connection point S3 on the secondary side of the isolation transformer. The third AC connection point S3 on the secondary side of the isolation transformer is directly connected to one end of the primary side of the isolation transformer, or connected in series with a capacitor. A series capacitor is connected to one end of the secondary side of the isolation transformer; the source of the seventh switch T7 and the drain of the eighth switch T8 are connected to each other to form the fourth AC connection point S4 of the secondary side of the isolation transformer. The fourth AC connection point S4 of the secondary side of the isolation transformer is directly or connected to the other end of the secondary side of the isolation transformer via a series capacitor; the drain of the first switch T1 and the drain of the third switch T3 are connected to each other to form the first input point I1 of the isolated DC / DC converter; the source of the second switch T2 and the source of the fourth switch T4 are connected to each other to form the second input point I2 of the isolated DC / DC converter; the fifth switch... The drains of switch T5 and the seventh switch T7 are interconnected to form the first output point O1 of the isolated DC / DC converter. The sources of switch T6 and the eighth switch T8 are interconnected to form the second output point O2 of the isolated DC / DC converter. Switches T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6, T7, and T8 are controllable switches with anti-parallel diodes, such as MOSFETs and IGBTs. The charge / discharge modulation method for this isolated DC / DC converter is as follows: Figure 4As shown, in the isolated DC / DC converter, the angle of each switch in one cycle is 2*π. The first switch T1 and the second switch T2 of the first half-bridge H1 are complementary in conduction angle π, and a dead zone is inserted to prevent shoot-through. The third switch T3 and the fourth switch T4 of the second half-bridge H2 are complementary in conduction angle π, and a dead zone is inserted to prevent shoot-through. The fifth switch T5 and the sixth switch T6 of the third half-bridge H3 are complementary in conduction angle π, and an overlapping conduction time is inserted to ensure the freewheeling path of the energy storage system's charging and discharging current. The seventh switch T7 and the eighth switch T8 of the fourth half-bridge H4 are complementary in conduction angle π, and an overlapping conduction time is inserted to ensure the freewheeling path of the energy storage system's charging and discharging current. The first full-bridge converter F1 uses phase-shift control to generate a bipolar AC square wave voltage Ut on the primary side of the isolation transformer. The second full-bridge converter F2 rectifies the bipolar AC square wave voltage on the secondary side of the isolation transformer into a unipolar AC square wave voltage Uo. The phase shift angle between the first switch T1 and the third switch T3 is θ = Y * π, where θ is the phase shift angle, Y is the phase shift ratio, and the phase shift ratio is a value between 0 and 1. A reference 0 point for the drive signal is set. The falling edge of the first switch T1 leads the reference 0 point of the drive signal by θ / 2, the falling edge of the third switch T3 lags the reference 0 point of the drive signal by θ / 2, the falling edges of the fifth switch T5 and the eighth switch T8 lead the reference 0 point of the drive signal by π / 2, and the falling edges of the sixth switch T6 and the seventh switch T7 lag the reference 0 point of the drive signal by π / 2. Compared with existing isolated DC / DC topologies, this invention eliminates the need for a freewheeling capacitor C connected in parallel between the first output point O1 and the second output point O2 of the isolated DC / DC converter, saving system costs. Compared with existing modulation methods, this invention improves the dead time Td of the switching transistors in the second full-bridge converter modulation method to an overlapping conduction time To. During this time, the fifth switch T5 and the sixth switch T6 are simultaneously turned on, and the seventh switch T7 and the eighth switch T8 are simultaneously turned on, thereby ensuring that a freewheeling path is always provided for the charging and discharging current of the energy storage system during the alternating conduction of the switching transistors of the second full-bridge converter. Compared with the existing modulation methods of partially power-controlled energy storage systems, its significant difference lies in avoiding the use of the freewheeling capacitor C at the output end of the isolated DC / DC converter, further reducing system costs and component stress.

This modulation method utilizes the characteristic that a phase shift in the overall phase of the drive signal of the isolated DC / DC converter on the energy storage branch will cause the ripple current of the filter inductor to exhibit the same phase shift angle. By performing an overall phase shift on the drive signals of the first switch T1, second switch T2, third switch T3, fourth switch T4, fifth switch T5, sixth switch T6, seventh switch T7, and eighth switch T8 of the isolated DC / DC converter, the timing of the peak and trough of the filter inductor current within the switching period Ts is changed. By adjusting the overall phase shift angle of the drive signals of the isolated DC / DC converter on each energy storage branch, the peak or trough current of the filter inductor in each energy storage branch is distributed at equal time intervals within the switching period Ts. When the number of energy storage branches connected in parallel to the common DC bus is n, the angle of each switch of the isolated DC / DC converter in one cycle is 2*π. Therefore, the energy storage branch... The reference 0 point of the drive signal of the internally isolated DC / DC converter in energy storage branch 2 is phase-shifted by 1 / n*π relative to the reference 0 point of the drive signal of the internally isolated DC / DC converter in energy storage branch 1; the reference 0 point of the drive signal of the internally isolated DC / DC converter in energy storage branch 3 is phase-shifted by 2 / n*π relative to the reference 0 point of the drive signal of the internally isolated DC / DC converter in energy storage branch 1; the reference 0 point of the drive signal of the internally isolated DC / DC converter in energy storage branch 4 is phase-shifted by 3 / n*π relative to the reference 0 point of the drive signal of the internally isolated DC / DC converter in energy storage branch 1; and so on, the reference 0 point of the drive signal of the internally isolated DC / DC converter in energy storage branch n is phase-shifted by (n-1) / n*π relative to the reference 0 point of the drive signal of the internally isolated DC / DC converter in energy storage branch 1. This modulation method can achieve the cancellation of current peaks and troughs between energy storage branches and suppress the current ripple of the common DC bus. It solves the problems of the DC bus current peak-to-peak value doubling and large ripple caused by the overlap of current peaks and troughs in multiple energy storage branches, and significantly reduces the volume of the filter inductor in the energy storage branch, thereby reducing the cost of the energy storage system.

[0037] Example 1: Some power-controlled energy storage systems according to embodiments of the present invention, such as... Figure 1As shown, the energy storage system consists of multiple energy storage branches and a DC / AC converter. Each energy storage branch comprises a battery cluster, an isolated DC / DC converter, and a filter inductor. The filter inductor, the output of the isolated DC / DC converter, and the battery cluster are connected in series. Multiple energy storage branches are connected in parallel to form a common DC bus for the energy storage system. This common DC bus is used to construct positive and negative DC buses through two split capacitors. The positive or negative DC buses are alternately used as the inputs to the isolated DC / DC converters within the multiple energy storage branches. The common DC bus enables grid-connected operation of the energy storage system through a DC / AC converter. A unipolar output voltage isolated DC / DC converter topology is shown in the figure. Figure 3As shown, this topology consists of two full-bridge converters interconnected by an isolation transformer. The first full-bridge converter F1, connected to the primary side of the isolation transformer, consists of a first half-bridge H1 and a second half-bridge H2. The first switch T1 and the second switch T2 form the first half-bridge H1, and the third switch T3 and the fourth switch T4 form the second half-bridge H2. The second full-bridge converter F2, connected to the secondary side of the isolation transformer, consists of a third half-bridge H3 and a fourth half-bridge H4. The fifth switch T5 and the sixth switch T6 form the third half-bridge H3, and the seventh switch T7 and the eighth switch T8 form the fourth half-bridge H4. The source of the first switch T1 and the drain of the second switch T2 are interconnected, forming the first AC connection point P1 on the primary side of the isolation transformer. The first AC connection point P1 is directly or connected in series with a capacitor to one end of the primary side of the isolation transformer. The source of the third switch T3 and the drain of the fourth switch T4 are interconnected, forming the second AC connection point P2 on the primary side of the isolation transformer. The second AC connection point P2 is directly or connected in series with a capacitor to the other end of the primary side of the isolation transformer. The source of the fifth switch T5... The drains of the sixth switch T6 are interconnected to form the third AC connection point S3 on the secondary side of the isolation transformer. The third AC connection point S3 on the secondary side of the isolation transformer is directly or connected in series with a capacitor to one end of the secondary side of the isolation transformer. The source of the seventh switch T7 and the drain of the eighth switch T8 are interconnected to form the fourth AC connection point S4 on the secondary side of the isolation transformer. The fourth AC connection point S4 on the secondary side of the isolation transformer is directly or connected in series with a capacitor to the other end of the secondary side of the isolation transformer. The drains of the first switch T1 and the third switch T3 are interconnected to form the first input point I1 of the isolated DC / DC converter. The source of the second switch T2 and the source of the fourth switch T4 are interconnected to form the second input point I2 of the isolated DC / DC converter. The drains of the fifth switch T5 and the seventh switch T7 are interconnected to form the first output point O1 of the isolated DC / DC converter. The source of the sixth switch T6 and the source of the eighth switch T8 are interconnected to form the second output point O2 of the isolated DC / DC converter. Switches T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6, T7, and T8 are controllable switches with anti-parallel diodes, such as MOSFETs and IGBTs. This unipolar isolated DC / DC converter structure has the advantages of simple modulation methods and topology, high stability, and low system cost.

[0038] Example 2: A modulation method for a single isolated DC / DC converter with a unipolar output voltage applicable to the partially power-controlled energy storage system described in Example 1, as follows: Figure 4As shown, the improved modulation method is as follows: the angle of each switch in the isolated DC / DC converter is 2*π per cycle. The first switch T1 and the second switch T2 of the first half-bridge H1 are complementary in conduction angle π, and a dead zone is inserted to prevent shoot-through. The third switch T3 and the fourth switch T4 of the second half-bridge H2 are complementary in conduction angle π, and a dead zone is inserted to prevent shoot-through. The fifth switch T5 and the sixth switch T6 of the third half-bridge H3 are complementary in conduction angle π, and an overlapping conduction time is inserted to ensure the freewheeling path of the charging and discharging current. The seventh switch T7 and the eighth switch T8 of the fourth half-bridge H4 are complementary in conduction angle π, and an overlapping conduction time is inserted to ensure the freewheeling path of the charging and discharging current. The first full-bridge converter F1 uses phase-shift control to generate a bipolar AC square wave voltage Ut on the primary side of the isolation transformer. The second full-bridge converter F2 rectifies the bipolar AC square wave voltage on the secondary side of the isolation transformer into a unipolar AC square wave voltage Uo. The phase shift angle between the first switch T1 and the third switch T3 is θ = Y * π, where θ is the phase shift angle, Y is the phase shift ratio, and the phase shift ratio ranges from 0 to 1. A reference 0 point for the drive signal is set. The falling edge of the first switch T1 leads the reference 0 point of the drive signal by θ / 2, the falling edge of the third switch T3 lags the reference 0 point of the drive signal by θ / 2, the falling edges of the fifth switch T5 and the eighth switch T8 lead the reference 0 point of the drive signal by π / 2, and the falling edges of the sixth switch T6 and the seventh switch T7 lag the reference 0 point of the drive signal by π / 2. This invention improves the F2 modulation method of the second full-bridge converter in an isolated DC / DC converter. The dead time Td of the switching transistors in the existing F2 modulation method is changed to an overlapping conduction time To. During this time, the fifth switch T5 and the sixth switch T6 are simultaneously turned on, and the seventh switch T7 and the eighth switch T8 are simultaneously turned on. This ensures that a freewheeling path is always provided for the charging and discharging current of the energy storage system during the alternating conduction of the switching transistors in the second full-bridge converter. Compared with existing energy storage system charging and discharging modulation methods, its significant difference lies in avoiding the use of the freewheeling capacitor C at the output of part of the power controller, i.e., the isolated DC / DC converter, further reducing system cost and component stress.
