Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of flexible direct current (DC) converter valves, and in particular to a test method and related devices for extreme working conditions of an energy self-balancing power module. Background Art

[0002] The only structural difference between the energy-balancing power module in the flexible DC converter valve and the conventional topology power module is that a drain branch is connected in parallel to the positive and negative poles of the module capacitor. This drain branch is composed of a welded IGBT device, a drain resistor, and a connecting copper busbar in series. When a fault causes the module voltage to abnormally rise and exceed the set voltage of the drain branch during operation, the power module control board will promptly trigger IGBT T3 (half-bridge) or IGBT T5 (full-bridge) to open the drain branch and activate the drain resistor R2 (resistance of several ohms), thereby quickly discharging the module capacitor and reducing the module voltage to a safe operating range, ensuring that the power module is not damaged by overvoltage.

[0003] Although the energy self-balancing power module can achieve orderly regulation of the module voltage through the energy discharge branch to avoid overvoltage damage to the module, there is an extreme working condition, namely, "the welded IGBT device of the energy self-balancing power module energy discharge branch is mistakenly turned on and the module bypass switch refuses to operate at the same time"; the actual performance of the energy self-balancing module under the above extreme working condition is directly related to whether the energy self-balancing power module can operate reliably after being put into operation in actual engineering.

[0046] In order to make the purpose, features, and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0047] The experimental principle of the present invention is analyzed and explained as follows:

[0048] The energy self-balancing power module of the flexible DC converter valve includes an energy self-balancing half-bridge power module and an energy self-balancing full-bridge power module. The topological structure diagrams are as follows: Figure 2 、 Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the main components inside the energy self-balancing half-bridge and full-bridge power modules include: press-fit IGBTs, fast recovery diodes, DC capacitors, grading resistors, bypass switches, energy dissipation branch welded IGBT devices, energy dissipation resistors, energy power supply, redundant power supply, module control board, welded IGBT driver board and bypass switch driver board, etc.

[0049] Depend on Figure 2 、 3 It can be seen that the only structural difference between the energy self-balancing half-bridge power module and the energy self-balancing full-bridge power module and the conventional topology power module is that a drain branch is connected in parallel to the positive and negative poles of the module capacitor. The drain branch is composed of a welded IGBT device, a drain resistor, and a connecting copper bus in series. When a fault causes the module voltage to abnormally rise and exceed the set voltage of the drain branch during operation, the power module control board will promptly trigger IGBT T3 (half-bridge) or IGBT T5 (full-bridge) to open the drain branch and turn on the drain resistor R2 (resistance of several ohms), thereby quickly discharging the module capacitor and reducing the module voltage to a safe operating range, ensuring that the power module is not damaged by overvoltage.

[0050] Although the energy self-balancing half-bridge and full-bridge power modules can achieve orderly regulation of module voltage through the energy dissipation branch to avoid overvoltage damage to the module, there is an extreme working condition, namely "the energy self-balancing power module energy dissipation branch welded IGBT device is mistakenly turned on and the module bypass switch refuses to operate at the same time". Under this working condition, the module is locked and the energy dissipation branch is out of control. The surplus energy in the system will continue to be absorbed by the energy dissipation branch resistor of the energy self-balancing module, but the module energy dissipation resistor has a limit energy tolerance value. Once this value is exceeded, the energy dissipation resistor is at risk of bursting. At the same time, the welding IGBT inside the energy dissipation branch also has an energy tolerance upper limit. Once the limit is exceeded, the bonding wire will melt, thereby disconnecting the energy dissipation branch and the energy dissipation resistor will The device is cut off and stops absorbing energy. Therefore, under the above extreme operating conditions, if the internal bond wires of the welded IGBT reach the energy tolerance limit before the energy dump resistor, the energy dump resistor will not be at risk of bursting due to exceeding the energy tolerance limit. It is necessary to observe whether the subsequent module voltage can continue to rise, causing the module bypass thyristor to break down and fail, and then whether the module can be reliably bypassed. However, if the internal bond wires of the welded IGBT reach the energy tolerance limit later than the energy dump resistor, the energy dump resistor is at risk of bursting due to exceeding the energy tolerance limit. In this case, if the module energy dump resistor does burst, it is necessary to observe whether the module's explosion-proof design meets the requirements and whether the subsequent module voltage can continue to rise, causing the module bypass thyristor to break down and fail, and then whether the module can be reliably bypassed. The actual performance of the energy self-balancing module under the above extreme operating conditions is directly related to whether the energy self-balancing power module can operate reliably after being put into operation in actual projects.

[0051] Furthermore, the inventors obtained through experimental observations:

[0052] The extreme operating condition of "the welded IGBT device in the energy dissipation branch of the energy self-balancing power module is mistakenly turned on and the module bypass switch refuses to operate" may occur during the startup charging stage before unlocking the power module (at this time, the current flowing through the power module is small, about tens of amperes), or it may occur during the steady-state operation stage after unlocking (at this time, the current flowing through the power module is large, about several thousand amperes).

[0053] Therefore, the test should be divided into two scenarios: "start-up charging stage (low current)" and "unlocking operation stage (high current)". In each scenario, the test method of energy self-balancing half-bridge power module and energy self-balancing full-bridge power module is the same, only the test objects are different. The specific test process is as follows:

[0054] Example 1:

[0055] See also Figure 1-3 , an embodiment of the present invention provides a test method for an energy self-balancing power module under extreme operating conditions, comprising:

[0056] Step 101: Determine the stage where the extreme operating condition occurs according to the current value of the tested energy self-balancing power module, where the stages include: a start-up charging stage before unlocking and a steady-state operation stage after unlocking of the tested energy self-balancing power module.

[0057] Step 102 : configuring test tools and test environments for testing in the pre-unlocking startup charging phase and the post-unlocking steady-state operation phase, respectively.

[0058] In some embodiments, step 102 includes:

[0059] For the startup charging stage before unlocking, a short-circuited and failed IGBT chip is used to replace a normal IGBT chip in the energy dissipation branch IGBT device of the tested energy self-balancing power module, and the chip is packaged into a complete welded IGBT device. A water cooling system is also configured to cool the tested energy self-balancing power module.

[0060] During the steady-state operation phase after unlocking, the energy-draining branch welded IGBT of the energy-draining branch welded IGBT under test is a normal device, but the driver board of the energy-draining branch welded IGBT is continuously powered by an independent power supply, and is equipped with a communication channel for communicating with the test operation platform, and is configured with a water cooling system for cooling the energy-draining branch welded IGBT under test.

[0061] Step 103: Before unlocking, start the charging phase, construct a first test circuit, place the first test circuit in a corresponding test environment, and output a current to the energy self-balancing power module under test that is the same as the actual charging current during the startup charging phase of the flexible DC project. Determine the total duration of the first test, control the energy self-balancing power module under test to always be in a locked state, and monitor the first operating parameters and the first working state of each component in the energy discharge branch of the energy self-balancing power module under test in real time.

[0062] In some embodiments, constructing a first test loop in step 102 includes:

[0063] The energy self-balancing power module under test is connected in parallel with a controlled current source Is, and the input power supply of the bypass switch driving board of the energy self-balancing module under test is disconnected.

[0064] In some embodiments, in step 102, real-time monitoring of first operating parameters and first working states of components in the energy dissipation branch of the energy self-balancing power module under test includes:

R2 , and observe whether the energy dissipation branch resistor R2 bursts.

[0066] Step 104: Based on the total duration of the first test, according to the first operating parameters and the first working state, the test state of the tested energy self-balancing power module under extreme working conditions is analyzed, and the operating parameters at the corresponding time are recorded to obtain the extreme working condition test data of the tested energy self-balancing power module in the charging stage before unlocking.

[0067] In some embodiments, step 104 includes:

[0068] During the first test duration, based on whether the energy dissipation branch resistor R2 explodes, combined with the energy dissipation branch resistor R2, the module DC capacitor C1, and the voltage U across the module AC port R2 、U C1 、U SCR The value of the energy dissipation branch resistor R2, the surface temperature T R2 , the test state of the tested energy self-balancing power module under extreme working conditions is analyzed, and the operating parameters at the corresponding time are recorded to obtain the extreme working condition test data of the tested energy self-balancing power module in the startup charging stage before unlocking.

[0069] It should be noted that, in the charging phase before unlocking, the test state of the energy self-balancing power module under extreme working conditions is analyzed, as shown in steps A4 to A6 of Example 2 for details.

[0070] Step 105: In the steady-state operation phase after unlocking, construct a second test circuit, place the second test circuit in a corresponding test environment, and control the operating current of the second test circuit to be the same as the actual charging current of the flexible DC project in the unlocking operation phase. Determine the total duration of the second test, control the energy self-balancing power module under test to always be in a locked state, and monitor the second operating parameters and second working state of each component in the energy discharge branch of the energy self-balancing power module under test in real time.

[0071] In some embodiments, constructing the second test loop in step 105 includes:

[0072] The energy self-balancing power module to be tested is installed in the middle position of the test valve section of the valve section operation test platform, where the test valve section is composed of several modules connected in series, and the input power of the bypass switch driver board of the energy self-balancing module to be tested is disconnected.

[0073] In some embodiments, in step 105, real-time monitoring of the second operating parameters and the second working status of each component in the energy dissipation branch of the energy self-balancing power module under test includes:

[0074] Real-time monitoring of the resistance R2 of the energy dissipation branch of the tested energy self-balancing power module, the module DC capacitor C1, and the voltage U at both ends of the module AC port R2 、U C1 、U SCR The surface temperature T of the energy dissipation branch resistor R2 of the energy self-balancing power module under test is monitored simultaneously. R2 , and observe whether the energy dissipation branch resistor R2 bursts.

[0075] Step 106: Based on the total duration of the second test, according to the operating parameters and the second working state, the test state of the tested energy self-balancing power module under extreme working conditions is analyzed, and the operating parameters at the corresponding time are recorded to obtain the extreme working condition test data of the tested energy self-balancing power module in the steady-state operation stage after unlocking.

[0076] In some embodiments, step 106 includes:

[0077] During the second test duration, based on whether the energy dissipation branch resistor R2 explodes, combined with the energy dissipation branch resistor R2, the module DC capacitor C1, and the voltage U across the module AC port R2 、U C1 、U SCR The value of the energy dissipation branch resistor R2, the surface temperature T R2 , the test state of the tested energy self-balancing power module under extreme working conditions is analyzed, and the operating parameters at the corresponding time are recorded to obtain the extreme working condition test data of the tested energy self-balancing power module in the steady-state operation stage after unlocking.

[0078] It should be noted that, in the steady-state operation stage after unlocking, the test state of the energy self-balancing power module under extreme working conditions is analyzed, as shown in steps B4 to B6 of Example 3.

[0079] Example 2:

[0080] Unlocking startup charging stage (low current) extreme working condition test method:

[0081] The test object is no less than one complete energy self-balancing half-bridge power module or one complete energy self-balancing full-bridge power module. The water cooling system needs to be turned on when testing the energy self-balancing power module under test. The energy dissipation branch welded IGBT (T3 for half-bridge and T5 for full-bridge) of the energy self-balancing power module under test adopts a special test device (the IGBT device manufacturer replaces a normal IGBT chip in the IGBT device with a short-circuited and failed IGBT chip, and then encapsulates it into a complete welded IGBT device. The device should be electrically short-circuited but the internal bonding wire connections should be intact and not damaged, so as to simulate the device being mistakenly turned on).

[0082] Step A1: Connect the energy self-balancing power module under test in parallel with a controlled current source Is, disconnect the input power supply of the bypass switch driver board of the energy self-balancing module under test (to simulate the module bypass switch failure), and place the entire test circuit in a closed test space with explosion-proof capability;

[0083] Step A2: First, turn on the water cooling system. After the cooling water inlet temperature of the energy self-balancing power module under test stabilizes (temperature fluctuation does not exceed 2°C), adjust the controlled current source Is connected in parallel with the energy self-balancing power module under test so that its output current I 充电 The actual charging current I charge consistent;

[0084] Step A3: The total test duration is set to Tset. During the test, the energy self-balancing power module under test is always in a locked state. The test is carried out continuously. During the test, the voltage U across the energy self-balancing power module's energy dissipation branch resistor R2, the module's DC capacitor C1, and the module's AC port (that is, across the module's bypass thyristor SCR) is monitored and recorded in real time. R2 、U C1 、U SCR The surface temperature T of the energy dissipation branch resistor R2 of the energy self-balancing power module under test is monitored simultaneously. R2 And observe whether the energy dissipation branch resistor R2 explodes;

[0085] Step A4: If the energy dissipation branch resistor R2 is observed to have exploded within the set total test time Tset and the voltage U across the module energy dissipation branch resistor is R2 The voltage U across the module DC capacitor C1 C1 The values ​​are always equal, indicating that the bonding wires inside the energy dissipation branch welded IGBT device have not exceeded their tolerance energy limit before the energy dissipation branch resistor bursts. At this time, the instantaneous voltage U at which the energy dissipation branch resistor bursts is recorded. R2 、U C1 、U SCR , temperature T R2 Then continue with steps A4.1 to A4.2.

[0086] Step A4.1: Continue to monitor the voltage U across the module energy dissipation branch resistor R2, the module DC capacitor C1, and the module AC port (that is, across the module bypass thyristor SCR) after the energy dissipation branch resistor R2 explodes. R2 、U C1 、U SCRAfter the energy dissipation resistor R2 explodes, it is generally in an open circuit state electrically. At this time, the energy dissipation branch is cut off, and the module capacitor C1 cannot continue to discharge quickly through the energy dissipation branch. At this time, the voltage of the module DC capacitor C1 will continue to rise until it breaks down the module bypass thyristor SCR.

[0093] Unlocking the extreme operating conditions test method during the operation phase (high current):

[0094] The test object is no less than one complete energy self-balancing half-bridge power module or one complete energy self-balancing full-bridge power module. The water cooling system needs to be turned on when the energy self-balancing power module is tested. The energy dissipation branch welded IGBT (T3 for half bridge and T5 for full bridge) of the energy self-balancing power module to be tested adopts normal devices supplied by the project (electrically characterized as an open circuit state when not triggered and electrically characterized as a short circuit state when triggered). However, the energy dissipation branch welded IGBT driver board of the energy self-balancing power module to be tested adopts an independent power supply independent of the module for continuous power supply (not affected by the voltage change of the module). At the same time, the driver board is connected to the operation interface of the valve section operation test platform through an additional pair of communication optical fibers.

[0095] Step B1: Install the energy self-balancing power module under test in the middle of the test valve section (a valve section consists of multiple modules connected in series) of the valve section operation test platform. Disconnect the input power supply of the bypass switch driver board of the energy self-balancing module under test (to simulate the module bypass switch refusing to operate). Place the entire test circuit in a closed test space with explosion-proof capabilities.

[0096] Step B2: First, turn on the water cooling system, start the valve section to run the test platform, set the test parameters through the platform operation interface, and make the platform operating current I flowing through the test module 运行 Unlocking the actual operating current I during the operation phase with the flexible DC project arm Consistent, wait until the voltage of the tested power module is stable at the rated voltage U 额定 After the nearby power-on / power-off is normal and the cooling water inlet temperature of the tested energy self-balancing power module is stable (temperature fluctuation does not exceed 2°C);

[0097] Step B3: The total test duration is set to Tset. During the test, the "on" command is continuously issued to the energy dissipation branch welding IGBT driver board of the energy self-balancing power module under test through the test platform operation interface. The energy dissipation branch welding IGBT will always be in the on state (in order to simulate the device being mistakenly turned on). After receiving the above command, the energy self-balancing power module under test will immediately enter the locked state. The test is carried out continuously. During the test, the voltage U across the energy dissipation branch resistance R2, the module DC capacitor C1, and the module AC port (that is, across the module bypass thyristor SCR) of the energy self-balancing power module under test is monitored and recorded in real time.

At this time, the instantaneous voltage U at which the energy dissipation branch resistor bursts is recorded. R2 、U C1 、U SCR , temperature T R2 Then continue with steps B4.1 to B4.2.

[0099] Step B4.1: Continue to monitor the voltage U across the module energy dissipation branch resistor R2, the module DC capacitor C1, and the module AC port (that is, across the module bypass thyristor SCR) after the energy dissipation branch resistor R2 explodes. R2 、U C1 、U SCR After the energy dissipation resistor R2 explodes, it is generally in an open circuit state electrically. At this time, the energy dissipation branch is cut off, and the module capacitor C1 cannot continue to discharge quickly through the energy dissipation branch. At this time, the voltage of the module DC capacitor C1 will rise rapidly until it breaks down the module bypass thyristor SCR. Record the voltage value U at the moment of bypass thyristor SCR breakdown SCR击穿 , monitor the voltage U across the module energy dissipation branch resistor during this process R2 The voltage U across the module DC capacitor C1 C1 The values ​​should always remain equal;

[0100] Step B4.2: Adjust the output current of the valve section operation test platform to 0, and wait for the voltage U C1 After the voltage drops to 0, enter the closed test space, conduct on-site inspection and record whether there are any solid particles from the internal components of the module flying out around the tested energy self-balancing power module. Then remove the module cover to check and record the status of the energy dissipation resistor after the explosion and whether the explosion of the resistor has caused damage to other components of the module (such as cooling water pipes, etc.). Simultaneously record the status of the module bypass thyristor after the breakdown and whether the breakdown of the thyristor has caused damage to other components of the module (such as cooling water pipes, etc.). Measure and record the impedance value Z at both ends of the module after the breakdown of the bypass thyristor. 击穿 , the experiment ends.

This indicates that the bonding wire inside the IGBT device in the energy dissipation branch has exceeded its tolerance energy limit and melted before the energy dissipation resistor explodes. At this time, the voltage U is recorded when the voltage across the energy dissipation resistor suddenly changes to 0. R2 、U C1 、U SCR , temperature T R2 Then continue with steps B5.1 to B5.2.

[0102] Step B5.1: Continue to monitor the voltage across the energy dissipation branch resistor R2, the module DC capacitor C1, and the module AC port (i.e., the module bypass thyristor SCR) after the voltage across the energy dissipation branch resistor suddenly changes to close to 0V. R2 、U C1 、U SCR The voltage across the energy-discharging resistor suddenly changes to close to 0V, which means that the bonding wire inside the energy-discharging branch welded IGBT device has melted, causing the energy-discharging branch welded IGBT device to electrically switch from a short-circuit state to an open-circuit state. At this time, the energy-discharging branch is cut off, and the module capacitor C1 cannot continue to discharge quickly through the energy-discharging branch. At this time, the voltage of the module DC capacitor C1 will rise rapidly until it breaks down the module bypass thyristor SCR. Record the voltage value U at the moment of bypass thyristor SCR breakdown. SCR击穿 , monitor the voltage U across the module energy dissipation branch resistor during this process R2 It should always be 0V;

[0103] Step B5.2: Adjust the output current of the valve section operation test platform to 0, and wait for the voltage U C1 After the voltage drops to 0, enter the closed test space, conduct on-site inspection and record whether there are any solid particles splashing out of the internal components of the module around the tested energy self-balancing power module, then remove the module cover to check and record the status of the energy dissipation resistor, and simultaneously record the status of the module bypass thyristor after breakdown and whether the thyristor breakdown has caused damage to other components of the module (such as cooling water pipes, etc.), and measure and record the impedance value Z at both ends of the module after the bypass thyristor breakdown 击穿 , the experiment ends.

[0104] Step B6: If the energy dissipation branch resistor R2 is not observed to burst and the voltage U across the module energy dissipation branch resistor is not monitored within the set total test time Tset, R2 The value is always equal to U C1 The voltage suddenly changes to close to 0V and remains at 0V, but the surface temperature T R2 Never exceeds its tolerance upper limit T max, it means that the energy-discharging branch will remain in the on-state during the unlocking operation phase of the project, the energy-discharging resistor R2 will not burst, the entire module will enter a dynamically stable state, and the test is completed.
