Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of bidirectional charging pile control, and in particular to a wide voltage range converter for a bidirectional charging pile and a control method and system. Background Art

[0002] In order to flexibly convert electric energy and manage the charge and discharge of energy storage batteries for electric vehicles, a high-performance bidirectional AC / DC converter is required as an interface circuit. From the perspective of topology, traditional AC / DC converters can be divided into single-stage and two-stage types. Among them, the single-stage topology has the advantages of high efficiency, high power density and low cost, and has higher research potential than the two-stage topology. Common structures of the single-stage topology include DAB+power frequency folding circuit structure and DAB+bidirectional half-bridge switch structure. However, although these two structures can achieve simple bidirectional control and wide range ZVS, due to the sinusoidal change of the AC side voltage, the primary and secondary voltage matching interval is greatly reduced, and the effective current value and stress are high in the non-matching interval, resulting in reduced efficiency. In addition, considering the different battery voltage levels, when the DC side voltage changes in a wide range and deviates from the optimal voltage matching point, the converter efficiency will further decrease. Therefore, these two-port converters cannot simultaneously meet multiple power transmission modes such as V2G (Vehicle-to-Grid), G2V (Grid-to-Vehicle), H2L (High voltage-to-Low voltage), and the low integration also limits the improvement of their power density. Aiming at the problems of low efficiency, narrow operating range, large current stress, and inflexible power transmission of traditional bidirectional AC / DC converters, a high-efficiency, wide voltage input range, and low current stress bidirectional AC / DC converter topology and corresponding control strategy are invented by introducing additional voltage matching points while maintaining the high power density of the single-stage topology and simple bidirectional control.

The new three-port converter circuit includes a grid-side filter inductor and multiple full-bridge circuits for power transmission, and configures the transformer turns ratio N1:N2:N3 to control current and voltage in different working modes.

[0079] Furthermore, the novel three-port converter circuit structure is as follows Figure 2 As shown, a three-winding high-frequency transformer is used, wherein the transformer turns ratio is N1:N2:N3, and three interface circuits are connected to form three ports, which are respectively connected to the grid side interface, the power battery port and the low-voltage side device port;

[0080] The grid side interface is sequentially connected through the grid side filter inductor L g , the expansion bridge and half-bridge circuits are connected to the transformer winding N1;

[0081] The unfolded bridge is a full bridge structure composed of Q3 to Q6, which folds the AC voltage into a voltage absolute value with double frequency;

[0084] The novel three-port converter adopts a phase-shift control method between the ports, and the single-stage structure makes it have higher efficiency and power density. At the same time, the power battery side interface circuit containing a T-bridge allows it to have a wider voltage range.

[0085] S2: Provides three working modes. In different working modes, corresponding control strategies are used to make the converter operate under various voltage and power requirements;

[0086] Adopt low current stress phase shift modulation strategy and zero power return algorithm to optimize the current stress of the converter;

[0088] Furthermore, the converter has three working modes, a G2V mode in which the grid charges the power battery and storage battery, a H2L mode in which the power battery charges the storage battery, and a V2G mode in which the power battery discharges to the grid.

[0089] The G2V includes: when the power grid charges the power battery and the storage battery at the same time, the three ports of the converter work simultaneously to transfer the power transfer inductors L2 and L3 on the windings N2 and N3 sides and the square wave voltage v between the two full-bridge arms. T2 、v T3 All are converted to the winding N1 side, and the turns ratio n is defined xy =N x / N y , the equivalent power transfer model is obtained as Figure 3 As shown, the arrow indicates the power flow direction of the converter in this mode;

[0093] In G2V mode, the converter adopts a low current stress phase shift modulation strategy. Figure 4 The key waveforms of the converter are given. It can be seen from the figure that there are five controllable variables in the converter, including the inner phase shift angles D2 and D3 between different bridge arms in the two full-bridge circuits on the winding N2 and N3 sides, and the outer phase shift angle D between port 2 and port 3 relative to port 1. 21 , D 31 And the T-bridge control signal D T ;

[0095] In the present invention, when the switching period is 10us, it is considered that v ac It remains unchanged in each switching cycle. On this basis, the fundamental component u T1 、u T2 、u T3 Indicates the square wave voltage v of port 1, port 2, and port 3 T1 、v T2 、v T3 , we can get:

[0117]

[0118] Among them, P N,12 , P N,13 is the reference power transmitted from port 1 to port 2 and from port 1 to port 3, and the expression is as follows:

In order to verify the beneficial effects of the present invention, scientific demonstration is carried out through experiments.

[0137] Based on the above analysis, a simulation model is built using PLECS, and the converter and control algorithm are verified. The simulation parameters are shown in Table 1:

[0140] In G2V mode, the grid supplies power to both high-voltage power batteries and low-voltage equipment. Figure 8 (a) Displays the voltage and current of the two battery ports of the converter, and then obtains the charging power. The voltage of port 2 is 900V, the charging power is 4000W, the voltage of port 3 is 17.8V, and the charging power is 320W. Figure 8 (b) shows the square wave voltage of each port of the converter converted to the winding N1 side under the power frequency cycle, and the current on the inductor L1. By amplifying the peak voltage of the power frequency cycle, the square wave voltage of each port of the converter converted to the winding N1 side and the current on the inductor L1 during the switching cycle are obtained, as shown in Figure 8 As shown in (c), the return power is marked in the figure. It can be seen that under this algorithm, the current on the inductor L1 can change with the grid voltage and has a return power close to zero.

[0141] To demonstrate the optimization effect of T-bridge on converter current stress, Fig. 9 The key waveforms of the three-port converter without T-bridge structure are given. Fig. 9 (a) It can be seen that the voltage and current of each port in the simulation are Figure 8 Consistent, through Figure 8 (b) and Fig. 9 (b) Figure 8 (c) and Fig. 9 (c) Comparing the square wave voltage output by each port of the converter converted to the winding N1 side and the current on the inductor L1, it is found that when the T-bridge is not used, the voltage V T2 The envelope is higher than V T1 At the same time, the peak value of the inductor current during the power frequency cycle is higher than that of the converter with the T-bridge structure enabled, which verifies the effectiveness of the proposed converter and control strategy.

[0142] In the V2G mode, the power battery discharges to the grid side, and the grid side current and voltage waveforms are obtained during the power frequency cycle. Fig.10 As shown in (a), the square wave voltage on both sides of the converter resonant cavity and the waveform of the inductor current in the switching cycle are locally amplified, as shown in Fig.10 As shown in (b), it can be seen that the inductor current and the grid-side square wave voltage have the same frequency and phase during the switching cycle, with extremely low power return. In the H2L mode, the TPS low current stress wide soft switching range modulation strategy is adopted. The key waveforms under the power frequency cycle are as follows: Fig.11 (a), it can be seen that port 2 is in the discharge state and port 3 is in the charge state. The key waveform is magnified in the switching cycle to obtain Fig.11 (b) It can be seen that through this control strategy, the inductor current can form a platform at zero current, which greatly reduces the current stress. At the same time, all the switch tubes in the full-bridge structure on the port 2 side achieve ZVS, and all the switch tubes in the full-bridge structure on the port 3 side achieve ZCS, which verifies the effectiveness of the optimization algorithm in the H2L mode.
