Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of power grids, and relates to grid-forming converter grid-connection pre-synchronization control, specifically to a grid-forming converter grid-connection pre-synchronization control method and system based on a second-order LADRC. Background Art

[0002] As an interface for distributed microgrids to access the power grid, the grid-connection control strategy of grid-forming converters is directly related to the stable operation of the power grid. Currently, grid-forming converters (GFMs) mainly use virtual synchronous generator control (VSG) to provide inertia and damping for the power grid. However, when distributed microgrids are directly switched on and connected to the grid, it will cause a large voltage impact on the power grid. Currently, the main pre-synchronization controls are pre-synchronization based on a phase-locked loop and pre-synchronization control methods based on coordinate transformation.

[0003] The pre-synchronization control based on a phase-locked loop obtains the voltage difference and phase angle difference between the grid side and the converter outlet, and sends them to the active power loop and reactive power loop controllers of the VSG for secondary regulation. However, it takes a certain amount of time for the phase-locked loop to start and achieve stability, which affects the pre-synchronization speed of the system.

[0004] The pre-synchronization control based on coordinate transformation can achieve zero-error tracking of the grid voltage through a PI controller, which can avoid the cumbersome and adverse effects of the phase-locked loop. However, it has a high dependence on system parameters, and the calculation amount is large and requires a high-performance digital processor to implement, increasing the hardware cost.

[0005] Therefore, in the pre-synchronization control of existing converters, the two requirements of "low dependence on system parameters" and "fast synchronization speed" cannot be achieved simultaneously.

[0006] Therefore, a new technical solution is needed to solve this problem. Summary of the Invention

[0115] Embodiment 3:

[0116] In order to verify the effectiveness and effect of the solution of the present invention, the following simulation experiments are carried out:

[0118] The parameter settings during its simulation are shown in Table 1, where represents the converter-side capacitor.

[0119] Table 1 Simulation parameters

[0120]

[0121] Operating condition 1: When the distributed microgrid operates in island mode with a load of 5 kW / 0.5 kVar, at 0.2 s of system operation, the active power reference value increases by 10 kW and the reactive power reference value increases by 1 kVar. At 0.5 s, a pre-synchronization closing signal is given to the system. The simulation time of the entire system is 2 s, and the simulation waveforms are as shown in Figures 4 - 7 shown.

[0122] It can be seen that during the transition time of pre-synchronization closing at 0.5 s, the active power, reactive power, and voltage at the output of the converter based on the second-order LADRC are significantly smoother than those based on coordinate transformation during pre-synchronization, without large impacts. It can be seen from Figures 4 - 6 that the pre-synchronization speed based on the second-order LADRC is significantly faster than that based on coordinate transformation. Figure 7

[0123] Operating condition 2: When the distributed microgrid operates in island mode, at 0.2 s, the load suddenly increases by 5 kW. At 0.5 s, a pre-synchronization closing signal is given to the system. The active power reference value is 10 kW. The simulation time of the entire system is 2 s, and the simulation waveforms are as shown in Figures 8 - 11 shown.

[0124] Figures 8 - 10 It can be seen that the active power deviation of the pre-synchronization output based on the second-order LADRC is only 0.1%, while the active power deviation of the pre-synchronization output based on coordinate transformation is 2.37%. Moreover, both the power and voltage transitions based on the second-order LADRC are relatively smooth at the moment of closing. It can be seen from Figure 11 that the pre-synchronization control based on the second-order LADRC quickly meets the requirements of pre-synchronization grid connection.

[0125] In summary, it can be seen that the pre-synchronization control strategy based on the second-order LADRC proposed in the present invention not only shortens the grid connection closing time of the converter, reduces the voltage impact and power impact at the moment of closing, but also significantly reduces the influence of external disturbances on the system operation stability, reduces the dependence on system parameters, and provides a strong guarantee for the reliable grid connection of the distributed microgrid.​​
