[0062] Example 1

[0063] Figure 1 The topological structure diagram of the existing inverter using a single rectifier module is shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, only one rectifier module is used to provide the power required by the load. When the load power demand changes greatly, a fixed power margin is generally set to cope with the instantaneous load increase, but this often leads to waste of equipment resources and reduced efficiency. To address this problem, in the inverter of high-power electrical equipment, multiple rectifier modules are often used in parallel to supply power to meet the load power demand and ensure power supply reliability. Figure 2 : is a topological structure diagram of a frequency converter with multiple rectifier modules connected in parallel according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 2 As shown, the inverter includes at least two rectifier modules 10 and an inverter module 20, the rectifier module 10 includes a rectifier bridge 101 and a PFC circuit 102, the PFC circuit 102 includes an inductor L1, a power switch tube Q and a diode D, and a bus capacitor C1 is provided between the rectifier module 10 and the inverter module 20. In an inverter using multiple rectifier modules in parallel, the currents of the multiple rectifier modules need to be accurately distributed, and the existing current distribution control method cannot accurately adjust the output power of each rectifier module according to the actual load power demand, resulting in a waste of the power of the rectifier module.

[0064] Aiming at the problem that the current distribution control method of multiple rectifier modules in the inverter in the prior art cannot accurately adjust the output power of each rectifier module according to the actual load power demand, resulting in power waste of the rectifier module, this embodiment provides a power regulation method. Figure 3 is a flow chart of a power regulation method according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3 As shown, the power regulation method includes:

[0065] S101, determining a reference voltage of each rectifier module according to a power demand of a load and a droop control coefficient of each rectifier module; wherein the droop control coefficient is a preset virtual impedance of the rectifier module.

[0066] In this embodiment, the number of rectifier modules is two as an example. Figure 4 is an equivalent circuit diagram of a rectifier module according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 4 As shown, the given voltage of the first rectifier module is V1', the virtual impedance (i.e., the droop control coefficient) is K1, the line impedance is R1, and the current is I1. The given voltage of the second rectifier module is V2', the reference voltage is Vref1, the virtual impedance (i.e., the droop control coefficient) is K2, the line impedance is R2, the current is I2, the reference voltage is Vref2, the load is RL, and the voltage across the load, i.e., the bus voltage, is V L .

[0067] S102, determining the duty cycle of the power switch tube in the PFC circuit of each rectifier module according to the reference voltage of each rectifier module, and controlling the on and off of the power switch tube in the PFC circuit of each rectifier module according to the duty cycle of the power switch tube.

[0068] The power regulation method of this embodiment pre-sets the virtual impedance of each rectifier module as a droop control coefficient, and uses droop control to determine the reference voltage of each rectifier module. Droop control is a control strategy commonly used in power systems, especially in distributed power generation systems. It simulates the droop characteristics between frequency-power and voltage-reactive power of traditional generators, so that distributed power sources can work like synchronous generators, thereby realizing parallel operation and load sharing under non-communication conditions. This embodiment controls the output power of two or more rectifier modules through the droop control method to meet the power demand of electrical equipment, and dynamically adjusts the output power of the inverter according to the actual load power demand to avoid unnecessary energy waste, ensuring that the equipment provides rapid response and power boost when the load power demand increases. It is suitable for power electronic equipment, smart grid, renewable energy system and other occasions, and can improve the power utilization of the rectifier module, reduce the overload loss of the rectifier module, and ensure the high efficiency and stability of the inverter.

[0069] According to the above mentioned Figure 4 As shown in the equivalent circuit diagram, the reference voltage Vref can be obtained by the given voltage V' and the droop control coefficient K i By using the droop control coefficient K i As a virtual impedance, we can get

[0070] Vref i =V' i -I i K i (1)

[0071] Among them, Vref i is the reference voltage of the ith rectifier module, V' i is the given voltage of the i-th rectifier module.

[0072] Depend on Figure 4 It can be seen that the bus voltage V of each rectifier module L It can be obtained by subtracting the voltage drop IR on the line from the reference voltage Vref, that is:

[0073] V L =Vref i -I i R i (2)

[0074] Among them, R i is the line impedance of the i-th rectifier module.

[0075] According to the bus voltage is equal, then:

[0076] Vref1-I1R1=Vref2-I2R2 (3)

[0077] Substituting formula (1) into formula (3) can be simplified to obtain:

[0078] I1(K1+R1)=I2(K2+R2) (4)

[0079] By using formula (4), we can obtain:

[0080]

[0081] Because the line impedance on each line is very small and can be ignored relative to the virtual impedance, we have:

[0082]

[0083] It can be seen that the current of each rectifier module is inversely proportional to the droop control coefficient.

[0084] Figure 5 is a control principle diagram according to an embodiment of the present invention. Based on the above quantitative relationship, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown, the reference voltage of each rectifier module is determined according to the power demand of the load and the droop control coefficient of each rectifier module, including: determining the given voltage V' of each rectifier module according to the power demand of the load i ; Get the detection voltage V of each rectifier module i and the detection current I i ; Calculate the detection current I i and droop control coefficient K i The virtual voltage drop I is obtained by multiplying i K i ; Calculate the given voltage V' of the rectifier module i and virtual voltage drop I i K i The reference voltage Vref is obtained by i .

[0085] like Figure 5 As shown, the duty cycle of the power switch tube in the PFC circuit of each rectifier module is determined according to the reference voltage, including: the voltage control module determines the duty cycle of the power switch tube in the PFC circuit of each rectifier module according to the reference voltage Vref i , Detection voltage V i The reference current Irefi is determined by the total resistance of the rectifier module; the current control module calculates the duty cycle D according to the reference current Irefi and the detection current Ii.

[0086] Figure 6 : is an output current comparison diagram of the rectifier module according to the control method of the embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the number of rectifier modules is two, K1:K2=1:2. Figure 6 As shown, when the load power demand changes, both rectifier modules can achieve fast response.

[0087] According to the bus voltage V L The calculation formula is:

[0088] V L =V' i -I i (K i +R i );Vrefi=V' i -I i K i (7)

[0089] It can be seen that the above droop control will cause a large voltage drop in the bus voltage based on the given voltage, which will affect the control accuracy. Therefore, the reference voltage correction value U is introduced i The reference voltage is corrected, and the corrected DC bus voltage is:

[0090] V L =V'-I i (K i +R i )+U i ;Vref i =V' i -I i K i +U i (8)

[0091] Define the internal voltage drop V of the rectifier module Oi =I i (K i +R i ), then the difference between the given voltage and the bus voltage is:

[0092] ε i =V' i -VL =V Oi -U i (9)

[0093] Assuming that there are N rectifier modules in the system, the sum of the difference between the given voltage of all modules and the bus voltage is:

[0094]

[0095] Calculate the average value of the difference between the module given voltage and the bus voltage of N rectifier modules:

[0096]

[0097] Solving the reference voltage correction value U through PI control i , then:

[0098]

[0099] Among them, U i is the reference voltage correction value, Kp i is the proportional coefficient of the rectifier module, dt represents the Integrating with respect to time t, Kq i is the integral coefficient of the rectifier module, is the average value of the difference between the given voltage of all rectifier modules and the bus voltage, V Oi is the internal voltage drop of the rectifier module, and i represents the number of the rectifier module.

[0100] Figure 7 This is a control principle diagram according to another embodiment of the present invention. In order to avoid too large an adjustment step size, which results in reduced accuracy, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 As shown, after calculating the difference between the given voltage of the rectifier module and the virtual voltage drop and obtaining the reference voltage, the method further includes: calculating the internal voltage drop V of each rectifier module Oi The average value of the difference between the given voltage of all rectifier modules and the bus voltage The internal voltage drop V of each rectifier module Oi Proportional integration is performed with the average value to obtain the reference voltage correction value U i ; Based on the reference voltage correction amount, the reference voltage is corrected to obtain the final reference voltage: Vref i =V' i -I i K i +U i .

[0101] The internal voltage drop of each rectifier module is proportionally integrated with the average value to obtain the reference voltage correction value, which is implemented according to the following formula: Among them, Ui is the reference voltage correction value, Kp i is the proportional coefficient of the rectifier module, dt represents the Integrating with respect to time t, Kq i is the integral coefficient of the rectifier module, is the average value of the difference between the given voltage of all rectifier modules and the bus voltage, V Oi is the internal voltage drop of the rectifier module, and i represents the number of the rectifier module.

[0102] Figure 8 FIG. 4 is a comparison diagram between the reference voltage correction amount and the output voltage of the rectifier module according to another embodiment of the present invention. Figure 8 As shown, the reference voltage correction amount can quickly respond to the output voltage change of the rectifier module and reach a steady state, indicating that the system has good stability.

[0103] In order to avoid overloading of the rectifier module, when the output power of the rectifier module is close to its maximum power, its output power must be limited. Therefore, the above method also includes: adjusting the droop control coefficient of each rectifier module according to the deviation between its output power and its maximum power; specifically, adjusting the droop control coefficient of each rectifier module according to the deviation between its output power and its maximum power includes: judging whether the deviation between the output power of each rectifier module and its maximum power is less than a preset threshold; if so, controlling the droop control coefficient of the rectifier module to decrease. The rectifier module can be set to slightly reduce the output voltage when approaching overload, and the other module will increase the output to share the load, while increasing the reliability of the system. If the output power of both rectifier modules is close to their maximum power, the rectifier modules will reduce the output power at the same time.

[0104] In order to avoid overloading of the rectifier module and causing the temperature inside the rectifier module to be too high, the above method also includes: detecting the internal temperature of each rectifier module; when the internal temperature of the rectifier module is higher than a preset threshold, controlling the droop control coefficient of the rectifier module to decrease.

[0105] In order to avoid a single rectifier module from running at high load for a long time, which affects the service life of the rectifier module, the above method also includes: starting the timing after the rectifier module is started; controlling the droop control coefficient of the rectifier module to rotate at each preset time interval. Specifically, when the number of rectifier modules is two, the droop control coefficients of the two rectifier modules are controlled to be exchanged once at each preset time interval; when the number of rectifier modules is N (N>2), the rectifier modules are sorted in order according to the numbers, and at each preset time interval, the droop control coefficient of the rectifier module numbered i+1 is replaced with the droop control coefficient of the rectifier module numbered i, and the droop control coefficient of the first rectifier module is replaced with the droop control coefficient of the rectifier module numbered N.

[0106] The power control method of this embodiment uses DSP to implement the droop control algorithm by presetting the droop control coefficient K i Optimize the load distribution, adjust the output power when the load fluctuates, monitor the balance of the output power of each module, adjust the droop control coefficient of the corresponding module, evenly distribute the power output, avoid overloading of a single module, reduce energy loss and achieve efficient operation. At the same time, the load and output power data can be adjusted in real time according to the module temperature and voltage and current monitored by the monitoring module to achieve rapid response. When the temperature is detected to be too high, adjust the droop coefficient to reduce the power output of the corresponding module, and under normal operation, the droop coefficient is rotated periodically to avoid a certain load being too large and shortening the service life of the module, ensuring the stable power output and long-term operation of the equipment.

[0107] Example 2

[0108] This embodiment provides a power regulation device, which is applied to a frequency converter. The frequency converter includes at least two rectifier modules, each of which includes a rectifier bridge and a PFC circuit. Fig. 9 is a structural diagram of a power regulation device according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as Fig. 9 The device shown comprises:

[0109] The calculation module 10 is used to determine the reference voltage of each rectifier module according to the power demand of the load and the droop control coefficient of each rectifier module; wherein the droop control coefficient is a preset virtual impedance of the rectifier module.

[0110] In this embodiment, the number of rectifier modules is two as an example. Figure 4 is an equivalent circuit diagram of a rectifier module according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 4 As shown, the given voltage of the first rectifier module is V1', the virtual impedance (i.e., the droop control coefficient) is K1, the line impedance is R1, and the current is I1. The given voltage of the second rectifier module is V2', the reference voltage is Vref1, the virtual impedance (i.e., the droop control coefficient) is K2, the line impedance is R2, the current is I2, the reference voltage is Vref2, the load is RL, and the voltage across the load, i.e., the bus voltage, is V L .

[0111] The control module 20 is used to determine the duty cycle of the power switch tube in the PFC circuit of each rectifier module according to the reference voltage, and control the on and off of the power switch tube according to the duty cycle.

[0112] The power regulation device of this embodiment pre-sets the virtual impedance of each rectifier module as a droop control coefficient, and uses droop control to determine the reference voltage of each rectifier module. Droop control is a control strategy commonly used in power systems, especially in distributed power generation systems. It simulates the droop characteristics between frequency-power and voltage-reactive power of traditional generators, so that distributed power sources can work like synchronous generators, thereby realizing parallel operation and load sharing under non-communication conditions. This embodiment controls the output power of two or more rectifier modules through droop control to meet the power demand of electrical equipment, dynamically adjusts the output power of the inverter according to the actual load power demand, avoids unnecessary energy waste, and ensures that the equipment provides rapid response and power boost when the load power demand increases. It is suitable for power electronic equipment, smart grid, renewable energy system and other occasions, and can significantly improve the power utilization rate, reduce the overload loss of the rectifier module, and ensure the stability and efficiency of the inverter while improving the output power of the inverter.

[0113] According to the above mentioned Figure 4 As shown in the equivalent circuit diagram, the reference voltage Vref can be obtained by the given voltage V' and the droop control coefficient K i By using the droop control coefficient K i As a virtual impedance, we can get

[0114] Vref i =V' i -I i K i (1)

[0115] Among them, Vref i is the reference voltage of the ith rectifier module, V' i is the given voltage of the i-th rectifier module.

[0116] Depend on Figure 4 It can be seen that the bus voltage V of each rectifier module L It can be obtained by subtracting the voltage drop IR on the line from the reference voltage Vref, that is:

[0117] V L =Vref i -I i R i (2)

[0118] Among them, R i is the line impedance of the i-th rectifier module.

[0119] Based on the above quantitative relationship, as mentioned above Figure 5 As shown, the calculation module 10 is specifically used to: determine the given voltage V' of each rectifier module according to the power demand of the load i; Get the detection voltage V of each rectifier module i and the detection current I i ; Calculate the detection current I i and droop control coefficient K i The virtual voltage drop I is obtained by multiplying i K i ; Calculate the given voltage V' of the rectifier module i and virtual voltage drop I i K i The difference between i .

[0120] The control module 20 includes a voltage control module, a current control module and a control module. The voltage control module is used to adjust the reference voltage Vref of the rectifier module. i , Detection voltage V i The reference current Iref is determined by the total resistance of the rectifier module i ; The current control module is used to control the current according to the reference current Iref i , Detection current I i Calculate the duty cycle D. The PWM control module is used to control the on and off of the power switch tube Q according to the duty cycle D.

[0121] According to the bus voltage V L The calculation formula is:

[0122] V L =V' i -I i (K i +R i ); Vref i =V' i -I i K i (7)

[0123] It can be seen that the above droop control will cause a large voltage drop in the bus voltage based on the given voltage, which will affect the control accuracy. Therefore, the reference voltage correction value U is introduced i The reference voltage is corrected, and the corrected DC bus voltage is:

[0124] V L =V'-I i (K i +R i )+U i ;Vref i =V' i -I i K i +U i (8)

[0125] Define the internal voltage drop V of the rectifier moduleOi =I i (K i +R i ), then the difference between the given voltage and the bus voltage is:

[0126] ε i =V' i -V L =V Oi -U i (9)

[0127] Assuming that there are N rectifier modules in the system, the sum of the difference between the given voltage of all modules and the bus voltage is:

[0128]

[0129] Calculate the average value of the difference between the module given voltage and the bus voltage of N rectifier modules:

[0130]

[0131] Solving the reference voltage correction value U through PI control i , then:

[0132]

[0133] Among them, U i is the reference voltage correction value, Kp i is the proportional coefficient of the rectifier module, dt represents the Integrating with respect to time t, Kq i is the integral coefficient of the rectifier module, is the average value of the difference between the given voltage of all rectifier modules and the bus voltage, V Oi is the internal voltage drop of the rectifier module, and i represents the number of the rectifier module.

[0134] In order to avoid adjusting the step size too large, which will lead to reduced accuracy, such as Figure 7 As shown, the calculation module 10 is also used to: calculate the difference between the given voltage of the rectifier module and the virtual voltage drop, and after obtaining the reference voltage, calculate the internal voltage drop V of each rectifier module. Oi The average value of the difference between the given voltage of all rectifier modules and the bus voltage The internal voltage drop V of each rectifier module Oi Proportional integration is performed with the average value to obtain the reference voltage correction value U i Based on the reference voltage correction amount, the reference voltage is corrected to obtain the final reference voltage, namely Vref i =V' i -I i K i +Ui .

[0135] The internal voltage drop of each rectifier module is proportionally integrated with the average value to obtain the reference voltage correction value, which is implemented according to the following formula: Among them, U i is the reference voltage correction value, Kp i is the proportional coefficient of the rectifier module, dt represents the Integrating with respect to time t, Kq i is the integral coefficient of the rectifier module, is the average value of the difference between the given voltage of all rectifier modules and the bus voltage, V Oi is the internal voltage drop of the rectifier module, and i represents the number of the rectifier module.

[0136] In order to avoid overloading of the rectifier module, when the output power of the rectifier module is close to its maximum power, its output power must be limited. Therefore, the above-mentioned calculation module 10 is also used to adjust its droop control coefficient according to the deviation between the output power of each rectifier module and its maximum power; specifically, it is used to: determine whether the deviation between the output power of each rectifier module and its maximum power is less than a preset threshold; if so, control the droop control coefficient of the rectifier module to decrease. The rectifier module can be set to slightly reduce the output voltage when approaching overload, and the other module will increase the output to share the load, while increasing the reliability of the system. If the output power of both rectifier modules is close to their maximum power, the rectifier modules will reduce the output power at the same time.

[0137] In order to avoid overloading of the rectifier module and causing the temperature inside the rectifier module to be too high, the above-mentioned calculation module 10 is also used to: detect the internal temperature of each rectifier module; when the internal temperature of the rectifier module is higher than a preset threshold, control the droop control coefficient of the rectifier module to decrease.

[0138] In order to avoid a single rectifier module from running at high load for a long time, which affects the service life of the rectifier module, the above-mentioned calculation module 10 is also used to: start timing after the rectifier module is started; control the droop control coefficient of the rectifier module to rotate at each preset time interval. Specifically, when the number of rectifier modules is two, the droop control coefficients of the two rectifier modules are exchanged once at each preset time interval; when the number of rectifier modules is N (N>2), the rectifier modules are arranged in sequence according to the numbers, and at each preset time interval, the droop control coefficient of the rectifier module numbered i+1 is replaced with the droop control coefficient of the rectifier module numbered i, and the droop control coefficient of the first rectifier module is replaced with the droop control coefficient of the rectifier module numbered N.
