AI Technical Summary
In the case of three-phase imbalance, the output power of the rectifier is limited, which cannot meet the power consumption requirements of DC loads, and the harmonics of the power grid increase and reactive power increases, resulting in a decrease in equipment reliability.
By intelligently switching between three-phase mode and two-phase mode, the input mode of the rectifier is determined according to the grid voltage imbalance, ensuring that the rectifier always operates at the maximum output power point, including calculating the input power and grid imbalance of each phase, and switching to the two-phase mode to increase the output power.
In the case of grid imbalance, the rectifier circuit system maintains a high DC power supply output through real-time switching, improving the utilization rate of grid voltage and the reliability of rectifier equipment.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of rectifier circuit control, and in particular to a method for controlling the maximum power output of a rectifier under three-phase imbalance. Background Art
[0002] In weak grid conditions, the grid voltage is prone to abnormal conditions such as three-phase imbalance and phase deviation. This can lead to increased grid harmonics and reactive power, resulting in current distortion and increased output DC voltage ripple. Therefore, to ensure device reliability, rectifiers typically limit output power to mitigate the impact of three-phase imbalance.
[0003] In actual operation, if the three-phase imbalance of the power grid is too great, the allowable output power will be close to 0. In this case, if two of the phases are used for operation, not only can higher power be output, but input distortion caused by three-phase imbalance can also be avoided and the power factor can be improved.
[0004] Take the Vienna rectifier circuit as an example, Figure 1 and Figure 2 The three-phase three-level Vienna rectifier circuit has the advantages of high power factor, low harmonic content, high efficiency, etc., and can operate in three-phase mode and any two-phase mode at the same time.
[0005] Therefore, an efficient control strategy is needed to adjust the input mode of the rectifier in the case of three-phase imbalance, so that the rectifier circuit can output higher power and ensure the power demand of the DC load. Summary of the Invention
[0006] In view of this, it is necessary to provide a method for controlling the maximum power output of the rectifier under three-phase imbalance. In the case of three-phase imbalance, the input mode of the rectifier is adjusted so that the rectifier circuit can output higher power to ensure the power demand of the DC load.
