Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of power systems, relates to high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission technology, and particularly relates to a commutation control method and system for a controllable commutation converter. Background Art

[0002] The wiring modes of converters are diverse, and among them, the three-phase bridge inverter is a circuit form commonly adopted by HVDC transmission converters. For a converter to operate in the inverter state, the following three conditions need to be met:

[0003] (1) The no-load DC voltage of the rectifier must be greater than the no-load DC voltage of the inverter.

[0004] (2) The inverter must also be provided with commutation current by the AC system to ensure that the inverter bridge arms commutate in the correct order. When the six bridge arms of the inverter conduct in sequence, the DC current flows through the valve-side windings of the commutation transformer in sequence, and at this time, corresponding currents will be induced in the grid-side windings, realizing the function of the inverter to convert DC to AC.

[0005] (3) There must be a large enough turn-off angle to ensure safe operation. The characteristics of thyristors determine that they must withstand a negative voltage for a time longer than the reverse turn-off time to turn off reliably. Therefore, when the inverter operates, it is necessary to ensure a sufficient turn-off angle to avoid the bridge arm conducting again when the positive voltage comes, resulting in reverse commutation.

[0006] During the commutation process, if the valve that has just exited conduction fails to recover its blocking ability during the reverse voltage period, or if the commutation process has not ended during the reverse voltage period, it will cause the pre-conducting valve to commutate to the pre-turn-off valve when the valve voltage turns positive, resulting in commutation failure. Commutation failure causes the DC reverse voltage of the inverter to decrease and the DC current to increase for a period of time. The existing technology can only avoid commutation failure under relatively minor and short-duration AC faults; due to the overly complex combined control logic between the controllable capacitor and the converter, it severely restricts the engineering practicability of the converter.

[0007] The prior art CN202111356001.6 discloses a commutation control method, device, converter and readable storage medium for a converter. Among them, the converter includes a plurality of converter valves, and each converter valve includes a main branch and an auxiliary branch. The method includes: obtaining the DC current on the receiving end DC side corresponding to the converter and the first commutation current, where the first commutation current is used to represent the conduction state of the first converter valve; calculating a second commutation current based on the DC current and the first commutation current, where the second commutation current is used to represent the turn-off state of the second converter valve; determining whether the second commutation current is less than a preset value; when the second commutation current is less than the preset value, performing a commutation operation from the main branch of the second converter valve to the auxiliary branch. This patent solution proposes to ensure the operation stability of commutation by adding an auxiliary branch. However, this patent does not consider the influence of DC power and AC faults on commutation, and cannot ensure successful commutation in case of faults.

[0008] The prior art CN202111353541.9 discloses a commutation control method, device, electronic device and readable storage medium for a converter. The method includes: obtaining the commutation state of the converter; determining whether the commutation state is normal; when the commutation state is abnormal, controlling the converter to start an energy consumption mode and adjusting the energy consumption parameters of the converter. Although this patent technical solution considers that AC side faults will cause commutation failure and proposes to reduce the influence of AC faults on commutation by adjusting the energy consumption parameters of the converter. However, this solution does not consider the influence of DC side power, nor does it implement different control strategies for different AC side faults. The MOV1 and MOV2 incorporated in the auxiliary branch always form a path, which will inevitably affect the current transfer from the main branch to the auxiliary branch and the transfer of the auxiliary branch to the next valve group of commutation.

[0054] Such as Figure 1As shown in the figure, it is the topological structure of a controllable phase-shifting converter. The converters in the converter station are all composed of 6-pulse or 12-pulse converters. In a DC transmission project, in order to increase the output DC voltage level, the DC terminals of two converter valves can be connected in series to form a 12-pulse converter. However, the two series-connected 6-pulse converter valves are decoupled. The embodiments of this application are introduced based on a 6-pulse inverter. The basic structure of a 6-pulse inverter is as Figure 1 shown, and its DC side is connected to the output terminal of the rectifier, L d denotes the smoothing reactor, and the AC side is connected to e a , e b , e c which respectively represent the equivalent phase voltages of the AC system.

After a set fixed time delay, the auxiliary-branch IGBT valve V13 is turned off, and the current is transferred to the next converter valve group.
