[0053] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG1 , a test device for a controllable phase-changing valve is provided, the device comprising: a current source circuit 10, a voltage source circuit 20, an active shutdown circuit 30, and a processing module 40, wherein:

[0054] The current source circuit 10 is connected to the controllable phase-changing valve 50 and is used to provide an on-state current to the controllable phase-changing valve 50 when the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is in an on state.

[0055] Among them, the current source circuit 10 can provide a steady-state DC current for the controllable phase-changing valve 50, thereby simulating the current flowing through the controllable phase-changing valve 50 when it is in a normal conduction state, simulating the actual working conditions, and facilitating testing of the controllable phase-changing valve 50.

[0056] Exemplarily, the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is turned on for at least one third of the time (6.67 ms) in one power frequency cycle (eg, 20 ms). The on-state current provided by the current source circuit 10 may be 1000A-7000A.

[0057] Among them, the controllable phase-commutated commutator valve 50 may include at least one reverse-resistance integrated gate commutated thyristor (IGCT), and may also include multiple reverse-resistance IGCTs connected in series. Commutation failure is one of the common faults on the inverter side of the DC transmission system. It will cause adverse consequences such as reduced DC voltage, reduced transmission power, increased current, damage to DC converter station equipment, and overvoltage of the AC system on the inverter side. In a multi-input DC system, a single AC fault can cause multiple DC commutation failures in a large range, resulting in a power shock of tens of millions of kilowatts, which seriously threatens the safe operation of the power grid. The controllable phase-commutated commutator valve 50 can achieve controllable active shutdown. It not only has the characteristics of large capacity and low loss of thyristors, but also has the ability of active shutdown, so that it can actively shut down under AC faults to achieve controllable commutation, which essentially solves the problem of commutation failure.

[0065] Among them, the processing module 40 can control the working status of the current source circuit 10 and the voltage source circuit 20, so as to simulate the switching disconnection test condition for the controllable phase-changing valve 50, that is, the current and voltage stress that the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is subjected to during the entire process of normal switching disconnection, and then collect the electrical parameters (such as voltage, current, disconnection timing, etc.) of the controllable phase-changing valve 50 during the entire process to see whether they match or are consistent with the theoretically preset electrical parameters, so as to verify the reliability and performance of the controllable phase-changing valve 50.

[0066] Among them, the processing module 40 can control the working state of the current source circuit 10, the voltage source circuit 20, and the active shutdown circuit 30, so as to simulate the active shutdown test condition for the controllable phase-changing valve 50, that is, the controllable phase-changing valve 50 combines the active shutdown process with the normal phase-changing disconnection process, simulates the current and voltage stress it bears in this process, and then collects the electrical parameters (such as voltage, current, opening and closing timing, etc.) of the controllable phase-changing valve 50 in the whole process to see whether they match or are consistent with the theoretical preset electrical parameters, so as to verify the reliability and performance of the controllable phase-changing valve 50. Through the control of the processing module 40, a single working condition or a mixed working condition can be simulated for the controllable phase-changing valve 50 to conduct a mixed operation test.

[0067] In this embodiment, by providing the current source circuit 10, the on-state current can be provided for the controllable phase-switching valve 50, so as to facilitate the simulation of the current received by the controllable phase-switching valve 50 when it is normally turned on, thereby simulating the normal on-state working condition for the controllable phase-switching valve 50.

[0076] The first controllable valve V1 is used to be turned on during the process of testing the active shut-off performance of the controllable phase-changing valve 50, so that the first capacitor C1 discharges to the controllable phase-changing valve 50 through the first inductor L1 to provide a shut-off test current.

[0077] Among them, the first inductor L1, as the switching inductor of the controllable phase-changing valve 50, is a variable inductor, and its inductance value can be adjusted according to the number of reverse resistance type IGCT devices connected in series specifically included in the controllable phase-changing valve 50, so as to simulate a more realistic switching inductance value under actual operating conditions for the controllable phase-changing valve 50. Using an active shutdown test circuit to simulate the operating condition of active shutdown during the operation of the controllable phase-changing valve 50 requires that the current, voltage waveform and shutdown energy are equivalent to the actual situation of the controllable phase-changing valve 50. Therefore, for controllable phase-changing valves 50 with different series connection numbers, in order to ensure the equivalence of shutdown energy, the first inductor L1 needs to be adjustable and can be adjusted based on the number of reverse resistance type IGCT devices connected in series specifically included in the controllable phase-changing valve 50.

[0078] Among them, the second inductor L2 is used as a discharge inductor, and its inductance value is fixed. This is because the pulse width is fixed (the resonant circuit composed of the second inductor L2 and the first capacitor C1, the values ​​of L2 and C1 determine the resonant period), and the safety of the test must also be considered (it is safer when the inductance is large and the capacitance is small, so that the short-circuit current of the controllable phase-changing valve 50 when it fails is small). Therefore, the first inductor L1 and the second inductor L2 are designed in series to increase the loop inductance. At the same time, the second inductor L2 is anti-parallel connected with a freewheeling diode D1. When the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is actively turned off, the current on the second inductor L2 is continued. The controllable phase-changing valve 50 only needs to consume the current on the first inductor L1. The shutdown state is highly equivalent to the actual situation, and the simulated working condition is more realistic.

[0079] The controllable phase-changing valve 50 is used to actively shut down when the amplitude of the shut-off test current reaches a first set value. The first set value may be a value pre-set according to actual test requirements.

[0080] In this embodiment, by designing the first inductor L1 and the second inductor L2, the safety during the active shutdown test is improved, and the design of the first inductor L1 can be adjusted according to the number of reverse resistance type IGCT devices in series included in the controllable phase-changing valve 50, thereby improving the authenticity of the active shutdown test conditions.

[0081] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG3 , the voltage source circuit 20 includes: a second DC power supply 21, a second switch unit 22, a voltage polarity reversal unit 23, a second energy storage unit 24, a phase change unit 25, a second discharge output unit 26, and a third energy storage unit 27. The positive electrode of the second DC power supply 21 is connected to the first end of the second switch unit 22, the second end of the second switch unit 22 is connected to the first end of the voltage polarity reversal unit 23, the negative electrode of the second DC power supply 21 is respectively connected to the second end of the voltage polarity reversal unit 23 and the negative electrode of the controllable phase-changing valve 50, the second energy storage unit 24 is connected in parallel with the voltage polarity reversal unit 23, the phase change unit 25 is connected in series between the second energy storage unit 24 and the positive electrode of the controllable phase-changing valve 50, the second discharge output unit 26 is connected in series between the second energy storage unit 24 and the positive electrode of the controllable phase-changing valve 50, and the third energy storage unit 27 is connected in parallel with the controllable phase-changing valve 50.

[0082] The voltage polarity reversing unit 23 is used to adjust the polarity of the voltage on the second energy storage unit 24. The phase switching unit 25 is used to adjust the polarity of the voltage applied to the controllable phase switching valve 50.

[0083] In this embodiment, a specific structure of a voltage source circuit 20 is provided, which can provide a switching voltage of different polarities to the controllable phase-changing valve 50, thereby simulating the working condition of the controllable phase-changing valve 50 during normal shutdown. By designing the voltage polarity reversal unit 23, the polarity of the voltage on the second energy storage unit 24 can be actively adjusted, so that the polarity of the voltage on the second energy storage unit 24 is consistent with the actual working condition, thereby improving the realism of the simulated working condition.

[0084] In one embodiment, please continue to refer to Figure 3, the second switch unit 22 includes a second controllable valve V2, the second energy storage unit 24 includes a second capacitor C2, the third energy storage unit 27 includes a third capacitor C3, the second discharge output unit 26 includes a third inductor L3, the positive electrode of the second DC power supply 21 is connected to the positive electrode of the second controllable valve V2, the negative electrode of the second controllable valve V2 is connected to the first end of the voltage polarity reversal unit 23, the negative electrode of the second DC power supply 21 is respectively connected to the second end of the voltage polarity reversal unit 23 and the negative electrode of the controllable phase-changing valve 50, the second capacitor C2 is connected in parallel with the voltage polarity reversal unit 23, the first end of the phase-changing unit 25 is connected to the first end of the second capacitor C2, the second end of the phase-changing unit 25 is connected to the first end of the third inductor L3, the second end of the third inductor L3 is connected to the positive electrode of the controllable phase-changing valve 50, and the third capacitor C3 is connected in parallel with the controllable phase-changing valve 50.

[0085] The third capacitor C3 is used to simulate the parasitic capacitance caused by the devices around the controllable phase-changing valve 50 when it is installed in an actual power system, so that the operating conditions of the controllable phase-changing valve 50 during operation are more realistic.

[0086] In this embodiment, the second switch unit 22 includes a second controllable valve V2, the second energy storage unit 24 includes a second capacitor C2, the third energy storage unit 27 includes a third capacitor C3, and the second discharge output unit 26 includes a third inductor L3, thereby providing a specific circuit structure that can achieve the corresponding required functions.

[0087] In one embodiment, please continue to refer to Figure 3, the voltage polarity reversal unit 23 includes: a fourth inductor L4, a third controllable valve V3, and a fourth controllable valve V4. The first end of the fourth inductor L4 is connected to the negative electrode of the second controllable valve V2, the second end of the fourth inductor L4 is respectively connected to the first end of the phase switching unit 25 and the first end of the second capacitor C2, the second end of the second capacitor C2 is connected to the negative electrode of the second DC power supply 21, the positive electrode of the third controllable valve V3 is respectively connected to the negative electrode of the fourth controllable valve V4 and the negative electrode of the second DC power supply 21, and the negative electrode of the third controllable valve V3 is respectively connected to the positive electrode of the fourth controllable valve V4 and the first end of the fourth inductor L4.

[0088] The third controllable valve V3 and the fourth controllable valve V4 are used to conduct in time division to adjust the polarity of the voltage on the second capacitor C2. When the third controllable valve V3 is conducted, the second capacitor C2 discharges to the fourth inductor L4 through the third controllable valve V3. When the second capacitor C2 discharges, the positive current passes through the third controllable valve V3, and the negative current is cut off by the third controllable valve V3. Then, the electric energy generated by the current passing through is stored in the fourth inductor L4, and then the fourth inductor L4 charges the second capacitor C2. The second capacitor C2 and the fourth inductor L4 form a resonant circuit, and the voltage polarity on the second capacitor C2 is positive. When the fourth controllable valve V4 is turned on, the second capacitor C2 discharges to the fourth inductor L4 through the fourth controllable valve V4. When the second capacitor C2 discharges, a negative current passes through the fourth controllable valve V4, and a positive current is cut off by the fourth controllable valve V4. Then, the electric energy generated by the current passing through is stored in the fourth inductor L4, and then the fourth inductor L4 charges the second capacitor C2. The second capacitor C2 and the fourth inductor L4 form a resonant circuit, and the voltage polarity on the second capacitor C2 is negative.

[0089] In this embodiment, by setting the voltage polarity reversal unit 23, the active reversal adjustment of the voltage polarity on the second capacitor C2 can be achieved. The voltage polarity of the second capacitor C2 can be actively adjusted according to the actual working conditions to be simulated to simulate more realistic working conditions.

[0090] In one embodiment, please continue to refer to Figure 3, the phase-changing unit 25 includes: a fifth controllable valve V5 and a sixth controllable valve V6, the positive electrode of the fifth controllable valve V5 is respectively connected to the negative electrode of the sixth controllable valve V6 and the first end of the second capacitor C2, and the negative electrode of the fifth controllable valve V5 is respectively connected to the positive electrode of the sixth controllable valve V6 and the first end of the third inductor L3.

[0091] Among them, the fifth controllable valve V5 and the sixth controllable valve V6 are used for time-sharing conduction to adjust the polarity of the voltage applied to the controllable phase-changing valve 50. When the fifth controllable valve V5 is turned on, the second capacitor C2 discharges to the third inductor L3 through the fifth controllable valve V5. When the second capacitor C2 is discharged, the positive current passes through the fifth controllable valve V5, and the negative current is cut off by the fifth controllable valve V5. Then the electric energy generated by the current passing through is stored in the third inductor L3, and then the third inductor L3 discharges the controllable phase-changing valve 50. The voltage polarity on the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is positive. When the sixth controllable valve V6 is turned on, the second capacitor C2 discharges to the controllable phase-changing valve 50 through the sixth controllable valve V6. When the second capacitor C2 is discharged, the negative current passes through the sixth controllable valve V6, and the positive current is cut off by the sixth controllable valve V6. The voltage polarity on the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is negative.

[0092] In this embodiment, by setting the phase-changing unit 25, the voltage polarity of the controllable phase-changing valve 50 can be adjusted. According to the actual working conditions to be simulated, the voltage polarity applied to the controllable phase-changing valve 50 can be actively adjusted to simulate a more realistic working condition.

[0093] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG4 , the current source circuit 10 includes a power supply 11 and a rectifier-inverter circuit 12. The rectifier-inverter circuit 12 is connected to the power supply 11 and the controllable phase-changing valve 50, respectively. Exemplarily, the power supply 11 is a generator. The rectifier-inverter circuit 12 is used to, under the power supply of the power supply 11, be equivalent to the current stress of the controllable phase-changing valve 50, and output a current waveform according to the power frequency cycle, so as to test the controllable phase-changing valve 50.

[0094] Exemplarily, the rectifier-inverter circuit 12 includes a first three-phase full-bridge rectifier circuit 121, a second three-phase full-bridge rectifier circuit 122, and a smoothing reactor L0. Exemplarily, the first three-phase full-bridge rectifier circuit 121 includes six switch valves (K7-K12) to form a three-phase full-bridge bridge arm; the second three-phase full-bridge rectifier circuit 122 includes six switch valves (K1-K6) to form another three-phase full-bridge bridge arm. The positive electrodes of the switch valves K1, K3, and K5 are respectively connected to the first end of the smoothing reactor L0, the negative electrodes of the switch valves K1, K3, and K5 and the positive electrodes of the switch valves K2, K4, and K6 are respectively connected to the first end of the power supply 11 through the converter transformer, the negative electrodes of the switch valves K2, K4, and K6 and the positive electrodes of the switch valves K7, K9, and K11 are respectively grounded, the negative electrodes of the switch valves K7, K9, and K11 and the positive electrodes of the switch valves K8, K10, and K12 are respectively connected to the second end of the power supply 11 through the converter transformer, and the negative electrodes of the switch valves K8, K10, and K12 are respectively connected to the second end of the smoothing reactor L0. The smoothing reactor L0 is used to keep the DC flowing through stable.

[0095] The controllable phase-changing valve 50 can be connected in parallel with the lower bridge arm of any phase in the first three-phase full-bridge rectifier circuit 121 or the second three-phase full-bridge rectifier circuit 122. For example, in FIG4 , the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is connected in parallel with the lower bridge arm of the third phase of the second three-phase full-bridge rectifier circuit 122, that is, the positive electrode of the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is connected to the negative electrode of the switch valve K5 and the positive electrode of the switch valve K6, respectively, and the negative electrode of the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is grounded, wherein the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is connected in parallel with the switch valve K6. For the convenience of description, the bridge arm connected to the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is called a test bridge arm.

[0096] It should be noted that the current source circuit 10 can operate independently, that is, the current source circuit 10 can operate normally when the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is not connected. In the process of connecting the controllable phase-changing valve 50 for testing, the test bridge arm (such as the switch valve K5 and the switch valve K6 in Figure 4) is locked and the controllable phase-changing valve 50 on the test branch is triggered. The rectifier-inverter drag circuit 12 can be equivalent to the current stress of the controllable phase-changing valve 50 under the power supply of the power supply 11, that is, the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is simulated to be in a normal conduction state, and the current waveform is output according to the power frequency cycle to test the controllable phase-changing valve 50.

[0097] In one embodiment, please continue to refer to FIG4 , the test device of the controllable phase-changing valve further includes an isolation valve Vs. The isolation valve Vs is connected to the rectifier-inverter pair circuit 12 and the controllable phase-changing valve 50 respectively, and the isolation valve Vs is used to isolate the rectifier-inverter pair circuit 12 from the controllable phase-changing valve 50.

[0098] For example, in Fig. 4, the positive electrode of the isolation valve Vs is respectively connected to the negative electrode of the switch valve K5 and the positive electrode of the switch valve K6 in the rectifier-inverter drag circuit 12, and the negative electrode of the isolation valve Vs is connected to the positive electrode of the controllable phase-changing valve 50. In this way, by setting the isolation valve Vs, not only can the passage between the rectifier-inverter drag circuit 12 and the controllable phase-changing valve 50 be controlled to be turned on or off, but also the high voltage and low voltage in the test device can be isolated, thereby improving the controllability, stability and safety of the test device.

[0099] The isolation valve Vs includes a reverse-resistance type integrated gate commutated thyristor (IGCT) device.

[0100] The isolation valve Vs may include a plurality of reverse resistance IGCT devices connected in series, so that the reverse recovery time of the isolation valve Vs can be controlled within 50 μs, and the circuit can achieve a minimum 1-2° turn-off angle, thereby achieving more precise control of the on-state current flowing through the controllable phase-changing valve 50.

[0101] Among them, when the isolation valve Vs is turned on, the test bridge arm of the rectifier-inverter drag circuit 12 is turned on, and the rectifier-inverter drag circuit 12 provides an on-state current (for example, 1000A~7000A) to the controllable phase-changing valve 50, so that the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is turned on, and it can be turned on according to a preset conduction rule (for example, within a power frequency cycle (20ms), at least one-third of the time (6.67ms)), thereby simulating the normal conduction condition of the controllable phase-changing valve 50. When the isolation valve Vs is turned off, it can isolate the current source circuit 10 from the voltage source circuit 20, and isolate the current source circuit 10 from the active shutdown circuit 30, so as to prevent the voltage on the voltage source circuit 20 and the active shutdown circuit 30 from damaging the current source circuit 10.

[0102] In this embodiment, by providing the isolation valve Vs, the on-state current on the controllable phase-changing valve 50 can be accurately controlled, and the current source circuit 10 can also be protected, thereby improving the accuracy and safety of the test.

[0103] In one embodiment, please continue to refer to FIG. 4 , and the active shutdown test condition of the present application will be described in conjunction with FIG. 4 .

[0104] The active shutdown test condition includes a first conduction phase, an active shutdown phase, and a first commutation phase.

[0105] The processing module 40 controls the current source circuit 10 to provide an on-state current to the controllable phase-changing valve 50 , and controls the active shut-off circuit 30 to provide a shut-off test current to the controllable phase-changing valve 50 , so as to simulate the first conduction stage.

[0106] The controllable phase-changing valve 50 is actively closed, and the active closing circuit 30 provides a support voltage for the controllable phase-changing valve 50 to simulate the active closing stage.

[0107] The processing module 40 controls the voltage source circuit 20 to provide a switching voltage for the controllable switching valve 50 to simulate the first switching stage.

[0108] Specifically, the entire process of the active shutdown test condition is described, and reference may be made to the waveform diagram shown in FIG5 . In the entire process of the active shutdown test condition:

[0109] In the first conduction stage, the isolation valve Vs is opened, and the current source circuit 10 provides the on-state current for the controllable phase-changing valve 50, and the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is turned on. Then the on-state current decreases. When the on-state current decreases but has not yet dropped to 0, the first controllable valve V1 in the active shutdown circuit 30 is turned on, and the first capacitor C1 discharges to the controllable phase-changing valve 50 through the first inductor L1 and the second inductor L2 (wherein, the first capacitor C1 has been pre-charged before the first controllable valve V1 is turned on, specifically, the first DC power supply 31 pre-charges the first capacitor C1), and provides a shutdown test current. The current flowing through the controllable phase-changing valve 50 gradually increases until the amplitude of the shutdown test current reaches the first set value. At this time, the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is controlled to be actively shut down, the first controllable valve V1 is shut down, and the first stage ends.

[0110] In the active shutdown stage, after the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is actively shut down, due to the existence of the first inductor L1, the shutdown test current does not immediately become 0, but gradually decreases. In this process, the overcharge current provided by the first inductor L1 charges the third capacitor C3, and a positive support voltage is provided to the controllable phase-changing valve 50 through the third capacitor C3, so that the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is reversely recovered. Until the current provided by the first inductor L1 is consumed, the reverse recovery of the controllable phase-changing valve 50 ends. Then, due to the existence of the support voltage on the third capacitor C3, the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is subjected to the positive voltage, and there is no current on the controllable phase-changing valve 50, and the second stage ends.

[0111] In the first phase-changing stage, the sixth controllable valve V6 is turned on, and the support voltage stored on the third capacitor C3 is discharged to the second capacitor C2 through the sixth controllable valve V6. The voltage on the controllable phase-changing valve 50 gradually decreases until the voltage on the controllable phase-changing valve 50 drops to 0. Then the fourth controllable valve V4 is controlled to be turned on and the third controllable valve V3 is closed. The second capacitor C2 and the fourth inductor L4 form a resonant circuit, and resonance occurs. The resonant circuit charges the second capacitor C2, so that the polarity of the second capacitor C2 is reversed (from positive to negative), the voltage on the second capacitor C2 is a negative voltage, and the voltage on the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is a gradually increasing negative voltage. Then the third controllable valve V3 is turned on, and the fourth controllable valve V4 is closed, and the second capacitor C2 is charged, so that the polarity of the second capacitor C2 is reversed again (from negative to positive). Then the second controllable valve V2 is controlled to be turned on, and the second DC power supply 21 pre-charges and replenishes the second capacitor C2. After the second capacitor C2 is replenished, the third stage ends. At the end of the third stage, the fifth controllable valve V5 is turned off, and the connection between the voltage source circuit 20 and the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is cut off. Next, the working process of the first stage can be repeated to enter the next cycle.

[0112] Among them, it can be seen from the above-mentioned first phase-changing stage that by designing the fourth controllable valve V4, the voltage polarity on the second capacitor C2 can be actively reversed, so that the voltage polarity on the second capacitor C2 can be consistent with the actual working condition. Since there is no active shut-off stage in the actual operation of the controllable phase-changing valve 50, and in the active shut-off stage, the third capacitor C3 provides a positive support voltage for the controllable phase-changing valve 50, so that the second capacitor C2 that would have discharged is not discharged, which is inconsistent with the actual working condition, so it is necessary to design the fourth controllable valve V4 to make the voltage polarity on the second capacitor C2 actively reversed, so that the voltage polarity on the second capacitor C2 is consistent with the actual working condition, and a more realistic actual working condition is simulated for the controllable phase-changing valve 50.

[0113] The process of the phase switching disconnection test condition is described below. Please refer to the waveform diagram of FIG6 . During the phase switching disconnection test condition:

[0114] In the second conduction stage, the isolation valve Vs is opened, and the current source circuit 10 provides the on-state current for the controllable phase-changing valve 50, and the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is turned on. Then the on-state current decreases. When the on-state current decreases but has not yet dropped to 0, the fifth controllable valve V5 in the voltage source circuit 20 is turned on, and the second capacitor C2 discharges to the controllable phase-changing valve 50 through the third inductor L3 (wherein, the second capacitor C2 has been pre-charged before the fifth controllable valve V5 is turned on, specifically, the second controllable valve V2 is turned on, and the second DC power supply 21 pre-charges the second capacitor C2) (the voltage on the second capacitor C2 at this time is defined as a positive voltage), and a sinusoidal current is generated on the controllable phase-changing valve 50. When the sinusoidal current passes 0, the sixth controllable valve V6 is turned on, and the current direction changes at this time, and the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is switched off, and the first stage ends. In the first stage, since the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is in the on state, the voltage on the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is very small.

[0115] In the switching off stage, after the sinusoidal current passes through 0, the polarity on the second capacitor C2 is reversed (from positive to negative). At this time, the sixth controllable valve V6 is turned on, and the second capacitor C2 continues to provide a reverse sinusoidal current to the controllable phase-changing valve 50. There is a reverse recovery voltage on the controllable phase-changing valve 50, so that the controllable phase-changing valve 50 recovers in reverse. When the reverse sinusoidal current is 0, the reverse recovery of the controllable phase-changing valve 50 ends, the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is subjected to the reverse voltage, and there is no current on the controllable phase-changing valve 50, and the second stage ends.

[0116] In the second phase-changing stage, the third controllable valve V3 is turned on, and the second capacitor C2 and the fourth inductor L4 form a resonant circuit, which resonates. The resonant circuit charges the second capacitor C2, so that the polarity of the second capacitor C2 is reversed again (from negative to positive), and then the second capacitor C2 provides a positive voltage to the controllable phase-changing valve 50, so that the voltage on the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is reversed from a negative voltage to a positive voltage. The voltage on the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is reversed, and then the second controllable valve V2 is controlled to be turned on, and the second DC power supply 21 pre-charges and replenishes the energy of the second capacitor C2. After the energy replenishment of the second capacitor C2 is completed, the third stage ends. At the end of the third stage, the fifth controllable valve V5 is turned off, and the connection between the voltage source circuit 20 and the controllable phase-changing valve 50 is cut off. Next, the work flow of the first stage can be repeated to enter the next cycle.

[0117] In this embodiment, a complete test process for an active shutdown test condition and a complete test process for a phase-changing shutdown test condition are provided. By using the test device of the present application, the active shutdown test condition and the phase-changing shutdown test condition can be simulated for the controllable phase-changing valve 50, thereby realizing the test experiment for the controllable phase-changing valve 50.

[0118] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG7 , the test device for the phase-changing valve further includes: an impulse voltage circuit 60. The impulse voltage circuit 60 is connected to the controllable phase-changing valve 50 and is used to provide an impulse voltage for the controllable phase-changing valve 50.

[0119] The impulse voltage circuit 60 includes: an impulse generator 61 and an impulse test switch S. A ball gap is provided between the first end of the impulse generator 61 and the first end of the impulse test switch S, the second end of the impulse generator 61 is connected to the negative electrode of the controllable phase-changing valve 50, and the second end of the impulse test switch S is connected to the positive electrode of the controllable phase-changing valve 50.

[0120] Among them, the impulse generator 61 can provide a voltage impulse for the controllable phase-changing valve 50 in the transient forward voltage test during the recovery period of the controllable phase-changing valve 50.

[0121] Exemplarily, the impulse generator 61 can also be used to perform impulse voltage tests of lightning impulse voltage full wave, lightning impulse voltage chopped wave and operating impulse voltage wave on test items such as power equipment to test their insulation performance.

[0122] Among them, the ball gap is an air gap with a slightly uneven electric field formed by a pair of metal ball electrodes of the same diameter. It is mainly used to measure the peak value of high voltage and can also be used as a protective gap.

[0123] In this embodiment, by setting up an impulse voltage circuit 60, an impulse voltage can be provided to both ends of the controllable phase-changing valve 50, so as to test the controllable phase-changing valve 50 and check whether the reliability of the controllable phase-changing valve 50 meets the standard when subjected to the impulse voltage.

[0124] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG8 , the test device for the phase-changing valve further includes: a fault current circuit 70. The fault current circuit 70 is connected to the controllable phase-changing valve 50 and is used to provide a fault current for the controllable phase-changing valve 50.

[0125] The fault current circuit 70 includes: a fault power supply 71, a fourth capacitor C4, a fifth inductor L5, and a seventh controllable valve V7, wherein the fault power supply 71 is connected in parallel with the fourth capacitor C4, the first end of the fifth inductor L5 is connected to the first end of the fourth capacitor C4, the second end of the fifth inductor L5 is connected to the positive electrode of the seventh controllable valve V7, the negative electrode of the seventh controllable valve V7 is connected to the positive electrode of the controllable phase-changing valve 50, and the second end of the fourth capacitor C4 is connected to the negative electrode of the controllable phase-changing valve 50.

[0126] The fault power supply 71 is used to simulate and output various fault currents. The fault current circuit 70 is powered by a low-voltage large-capacity capacitor and outputs a half-wave sinusoidal current with an amplitude of generally 30kA~60kA and a pulse width of 16~20ms.

[0127] Among them, the fault current can be any abnormal current. For example, a short circuit is a fault where the live wire touches the neutral wire or the ground wire. If the circuit is interrupted by a fault in the current-carrying wire (phase wire or neutral wire) or a fuse or circuit breaker blows, an open circuit fault occurs, and a fault current is generated in the circuit. In a three-phase system, the fault may involve one or more phases and grounding, or it may occur only between phases. In a "ground fault" or "ground fault", the current flows into the ground and a fault current is generated in the circuit.

[0128] In this embodiment, by setting up the fault current circuit 70, a fault current can be provided to the controllable phase-changing valve 50, so as to test the controllable phase-changing valve 50 and verify whether the reliability of the controllable phase-changing valve 50 meets the standard when the fault current occurs.

[0129] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 9 , a method for testing a controllable phase-changing valve is provided. The method is applied to the testing device for the controllable phase-changing valve in the above embodiment. The method includes steps S900 - S930 .

[0130] Step S900, respectively controlling the working states of the current source circuit and the voltage source circuit to simulate a switching disconnection test condition for the controllable phase-changing valve.

[0131] Step S910, respectively controlling the working states of the current source circuit, the voltage source circuit, and the active shutdown test circuit, and controlling the controllable phase-changing valve to actively shut down when the amplitude of the shutdown test current reaches a first set value, so as to simulate an active shutdown test condition for the controllable phase-changing valve.

[0132] Step S920, obtaining electrical parameters of the controllable phase-changing valve under target test conditions.
