Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of power electronics, and in particular to a power converter. Background Art

[0002] After the photovoltaic system is put into use, the long-term exposure of solar photovoltaic panels and other equipment to the open air will lead to aging and other conditions. DC arcs are easily generated inside the photovoltaic system, causing device damage and even fire. Therefore, it is particularly important to accurately monitor the DC arcs generated in the photovoltaic system.

[0003] At present, arc-fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) technology is used to sample relevant signals of the target circuit in the photovoltaic system, such as DC cable current, and infer whether an arc is generated based on the sampled current signal through a detection algorithm, and confirm whether the arc is a real arc based on changes or judgments of the working status of the equipment. If it is confirmed to be a real arc, a protection action is performed, such as shutting down or tripping the equipment, so as to provide protection before the DC arc fault develops into a fire or a short circuit occurs in the circuit.

[0004] Due to the complexity of the environment in which the photovoltaic system is located, different grid environments, different DC cable lengths, different DC side component layouts, etc., often lead to different basic noises in the photovoltaic system. Once the conventional DC arc detection algorithm is developed, there are differences in the recognition ability to deal with different environments. In a noisy environment, false alarms become the biggest bottleneck affecting customer experience. Therefore, how to minimize the interference of AC ground current on DC arc detection when the DC positive and negative circuits of the photovoltaic system are asymmetric is the key to reducing false alarms.

[0032] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the present application will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the example embodiments can be implemented in various forms and should not be construed as being limited to the embodiments described herein; on the contrary, these embodiments are provided to make the present application more comprehensive and complete, and to fully convey the concepts of the example embodiments to those skilled in the art. The same figure marks in the figures represent the same or similar structures, and thus their repeated descriptions will be omitted. The words expressing position and direction described in this application are all explained using the accompanying drawings as examples, but changes may be made as needed, and all changes are included in the scope of protection of this application. The drawings of this application are only used to illustrate the relative position relationship and do not represent the true proportions.

[0033] It should be noted that specific details are described in the following description to facilitate a full understanding of the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in a variety of other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar generalizations without violating the connotation of the present application. Therefore, the present application is not limited to the specific implementation methods disclosed below. The subsequent description of the specification is a preferred implementation method for implementing the present application, but the description is for the purpose of illustrating the general principles of the present application and is not intended to limit the scope of the present application. The scope of protection of the present application shall be determined by the definition of the attached claims.

[0034] In order to facilitate understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the relevant technologies involved in the embodiments of the present application are first introduced below.

[0035] The terms used in the following embodiments are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to be used as limitations on the present application. As used in the specification and appended claims of the present application, the singular expressions "one", "a kind of" and "the" are intended to also include expressions such as "one or more", unless there is a clear indication to the contrary in the context. It should also be understood that in the following embodiments of the present application, "at least one" refers to one, two or more than two.

[0036] References to "one embodiment" and the like described in this specification mean that a particular feature, structure or characteristic described in conjunction with the embodiment is included in one or more embodiments of the present application. Thus, the phrases "in one embodiment", "in some embodiments", "in other embodiments", etc. that appear at different places in this specification do not necessarily all refer to the same embodiment, but mean "one or more but not all embodiments", unless otherwise specifically emphasized in other ways. The terms "including", "having" and their variations all mean "including but not limited to", unless otherwise specifically emphasized in other ways.

[0037] Reference Figure 1In the prior art, the AFCI device installed in the photovoltaic system includes a current transformer CT, a conditioning circuit and a control chip. Among them, the current transformer is used to isolate the DC cable, remove the DC component and amplify the voltage amplitude, the conditioning circuit filters the voltage signal, and the control chip analyzes the filtered voltage signal to determine whether there is a DC arc. DC arcs are generally generated at DC interfaces, such as the DC interfaces of each photovoltaic panel and the DC interface of the inverter. The DC arcs generated at the DC interfaces can cause accidents such as fires, so it is necessary to detect the DC arcs and then perform protection actions.

[0038] Since the inverter in the photovoltaic system is a non-isolated system, when the positive and negative line impedances in the photovoltaic system are completely symmetrical, the ground-to-ground current generated by the AC side of the inverter to the DC side is a common-mode current, which will introduce interference to the sampling signal of the current transformer. Figure 2 In the prior art, a unilateral current transformer is adjusted to a common-mode suppression current transformer, and the current signals of the positive and negative cable loops are simultaneously introduced into the magnetic circuit of the current transformer. By adjusting the current directions of the current signals of the positive and negative cable loops in the current transformer, the differential mode current flows in the same direction while the common mode current flows in the opposite direction, ultimately achieving the effect of mutual cancellation of the common mode currents, thereby reducing the interference introduced by the common mode current.

[0039] However, in actual application scenarios, the lengths of positive and negative cables are not consistent, and the positive and negative capacitances of photovoltaic modules to the ground are not symmetrical, which makes the positive and negative line impedances asymmetrical, which will cause part of the ground-to-ground current to be converted into differential mode components. Therefore, simply offsetting the common mode component cannot completely solve the interference problem of ground-to-ground current. How to minimize the interference of AC side ground-to-ground current on DC arc detection and improve detection accuracy when the positive and negative cable loops are asymmetrical is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently.

[0040] Based on this, the power converter provided in the present application adopts independent sampling methods for the positive and negative cables, and supports independent adjustment of the gain ratio of the positive and negative cable sampling signals, so as to achieve the best ground differential mode signal suppression effect, minimize the interference of AC current to ground on DC arc detection, and reduce the false alarm probability of DC arc detection.

[0041] The power converter provided in the present application is suitable for photovoltaic systems and energy storage systems. For example, the power converter can be used as a photovoltaic inverter to convert the DC power input by the photovoltaic module into AC power output. At this time, the DC cable connected to the DC input port of the photovoltaic inverter can be subjected to DC arc detection. For another example, the power converter can be used as a photovoltaic optimizer to track the maximum power point of the DC power input by the photovoltaic module. At this time, the DC arc detection can be performed on the DC cable connected to the DC input port of the photovoltaic optimizer, and the DC arc detection can also be performed on the DC cable connected to the DC output port of the photovoltaic optimizer. For another example, the power converter can be used as an energy storage DC-to-DC converter to output the DC power input by the energy storage battery after voltage conversion. At this time, the DC arc detection can be performed on the DC cable connected to the DC input port of the energy storage DC-to-DC converter, and the DC cable connected to the DC output port of the energy storage DC-to-DC converter can also be subjected to DC telephone detection.

[0042] Reference Figure 3 , the power converter provided in the present application specifically includes: a power conversion circuit 100 and a DC arc detection device 200. The power conversion circuit has a DC port for connecting positive and negative cables. Specifically, when the power conversion circuit 100 is an inverter circuit, the input side of the inverter circuit has a DC port, and the DC arc detection device 200 can perform DC arc detection on the positive and negative cables connected to the input side of the inverter circuit. When the power conversion circuit 100 is a DC-to-DC circuit, the input side and / or output side of the DC-to-DC circuit both have a DC port, and a first DC arc detection device can be set in the power converter to perform DC arc detection on the positive and negative cables connected to the input side of the DC-to-DC circuit, and a second DC arc detection device can also be set in the power converter to perform DC arc detection on the positive and negative cables connected to the output side of the DC-to-DC circuit. When the power conversion circuit 100 is a rectifier circuit, the output side of the rectifier circuit has a DC port, and the DC arc detection device 200 can perform DC arc detection on the positive and negative cables connected to the output side of the rectifier circuit. Figure 3 The power conversion circuit 100 is described as a two-stage inverter including a DC / DC converter circuit and an inverter circuit DC / AC.

[0043] In the present application, the DC arc detection device 200 sets independent sampling circuits, i.e., current sensing devices, for the positive and negative cables, so as to independently adjust the gain ratio of the positive and negative cable sampling signals for the asymmetric working conditions of the positive and negative cable loops, thereby achieving the best differential mode signal suppression effect, minimizing the interference of the AC current to the ground on the DC arc detection, and reducing the false alarm probability of the DC arc detection. Specifically, the DC arc detection device 200 includes: a first current sensing device, a second current sensing device, and a controller. Among them, the first current sensing device is used to connect the positive cable, the second current sensing device is used to connect the negative cable, and the first current sensing device and the second current sensing device are respectively connected to the controller. The first current sensing device is used to sense the current change of the positive cable and output a first voltage signal, the second current sensing device is used to sense the current change of the negative cable and output a second voltage signal, and the controller is used to adjust the gain ratio between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal. The controller can specifically use a microcontroller unit (MCU) to implement its functions.

[0044] In actual application, after the power converter is turned on, the controller can perform an action of adjusting the gain ratio between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal, and then perform an action of fine-tuning the gain ratio between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal in a timely or real-time manner.

[0045] In some embodiments of the present application, the controller can adjust the gain ratio between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal by hardware. Figure 3 , the DC arc detection device 200 may also include: a processor. The first current sensing device and the second current sensing device are respectively connected to the processor, and the processor is connected to the controller. The processor is used to merge the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal and output a third voltage signal, and the controller is used to adjust the gain ratio between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal according to the third voltage signal. Specifically, the controller can send a control signal to the first current sensing device alone to adjust the sampling gain coefficient of the first current sensing device on the positive cable to achieve the effect of adjusting the gain ratio between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal. Alternatively, the controller can send a control signal to the second current sensing device alone to adjust the sampling gain coefficient of the second current sensing device on the negative cable to achieve the effect of adjusting the gain ratio between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal. Alternatively, the controller can send a control signal to the first current sensing device and the second current sensing device respectively, adjust the sampling gain coefficient of the first current sensing device on the positive cable, and adjust the sampling gain coefficient of the second current sensing device on the negative cable to achieve the effect of adjusting the gain ratio between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal.

[0046] The following is a specific example to illustrate how the controller adjusts the sampling gain coefficient through hardware.

[0047] Embodiment 1:

[0048] Reference Figure 4a and Figure 4b In this embodiment, the first current sensing device may specifically include a first current transformer CT1 and a first sampling resistor R1. The first current transformer CT1 is connected to the positive cable, the first sampling resistor R1 is connected to the first current transformer CT1, and the processor is connected to the first sampling resistor R1. Specifically, the primary coil of the first current transformer CT1 is wound around the positive cable, one end of the secondary coil of the first current transformer CT1 is grounded and connected to one end of the first sampling resistor R1, and the other end of the secondary coil of the first current transformer CT1 is connected to the other end of the first sampling resistor R1 and connected to the first input end of the processor. The first current transformer CT1 is used to isolate and sample the AFCI signal transmitted on the positive cable, remove the DC component therein, and obtain a first current signal; the first sampling resistor R1 is used to convert the first current signal sampled by the first current transformer CT1 into a first voltage signal and transmit it to the processor.

[0049] The second current sensing device may specifically include a second current transformer CT2 and a second sampling resistor R2, the second current transformer CT2 is connected to the negative cable, the second sampling resistor R2 is connected to the second current transformer CT2, and the processor is connected to the second sampling resistor R2. Specifically, the primary coil of the second current transformer CT2 is wound around the negative cable, one end of the secondary coil of the second current transformer CT2 is grounded and connected to one end of the second sampling resistor R2, and the other end of the secondary coil of the second current transformer CT2 is connected to the other end of the second sampling resistor R1 and connected to the second input end of the processor. The second current transformer CT2 is used to isolate and sample the AFCI signal transmitted on the negative cable, remove the DC component therein, and obtain a second current signal; the second sampling resistor R2 is used to convert the second current signal sampled by the second current transformer CT2 into a second voltage signal and transmit it to the processor.

[0050] In this embodiment, the processor is used to combine the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal to cancel or weaken the noise signal in the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal, obtain a third voltage signal and output it to the controller. Since the current transformer can adjust the direction of the secondary current output by controlling the coil winding method, in order to cancel or weaken the noise signal in the output third voltage signal, different circuits can be selected as processors according to the coil winding direction.

[0051] Reference Figure 4aIn some embodiments of the present application, when the winding direction of the positive cable on the first current transformer CT1 is opposite to the winding direction of the negative cable on the second current transformer CT2, the directions of the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal are opposite. Therefore, the processor can specifically use an adding circuit to add the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal to obtain a third voltage signal after suppressing common mode noise.

[0052] Reference Figure 4b In some other embodiments of the present application, when the winding direction of the positive cable on the first current transformer CT1 is the same as the winding direction of the negative cable on the second current transformer CT2, the directions of the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal are the same. Therefore, the processor can specifically use a subtraction circuit to subtract the first voltage signal from the second voltage signal to obtain a third voltage signal after suppressing common mode noise.

[0053] In this embodiment, the controller is used to convert the analog signal output by the processor into a digital signal, that is, to convert the third voltage signal into a digital signal, and then adjust the resistance value ratio of the first sampling resistor R1 and the second sampling resistor R2 according to the size of the noise component in the digital signal, so as to determine the resistance value ratio of the first sampling resistor R1 and the second sampling resistor R2 when the lowest noise component is obtained, so as to minimize common-mode noise interference.

[0054] Reference Figure 4a and Figure 4b A conditioning circuit may also be provided between the controller and the processor, and the conditioning circuit is used to filter the third voltage signal output by the processor to eliminate other frequency interferences.

[0055] Reference Figure 5aIn some embodiments of the present application, the controller can adjust only the resistance value of the first sampling resistor R1 according to the third voltage signal, and the second sampling resistor R2 has a fixed resistance value. Exemplarily, after the power converter is turned on, the controller can control the first sampling resistor R1 to be in a default resistance state, generally R1=R2. The controller reads the third voltage signal, performs a fast Fourier transform (FFT) on the third voltage signal, screens out the noise component frequency band after excluding the system operating frequency, and calculates the average value of the spectrum amplitude of the noise component frequency band. Increase or decrease the resistance value of the first sampling resistor R1 to disturb the sampling data of the positive cable, recalculate the average value of the spectrum amplitude of the noise component frequency band, and observe the change of the average value. If the average value increases, it means that it is necessary to disturb in the opposite direction. At this time, reduce or increase the resistance value of the first sampling resistor R1, and it can be expected that the average value will decrease until the average value no longer decreases and begins to increase, indicating that the resistance value of the first sampling resistor R1 is adjusted. At this time, the average value of the spectrum amplitude of the noise component frequency band is the smallest. If the average value decreases, it means that the disturbance direction is correct. At this time, continue to increase or decrease the resistance value of the first sampling resistor R1, and it can be expected that the average value will decrease. Until the average value no longer decreases and starts to increase, it means that the resistance value of the first sampling resistor R1 is adjusted. At this time, the average value of the spectrum amplitude of the noise component frequency band is the smallest.

[0056] Reference Figure 5b In some other embodiments of the present application, the controller may also adjust the resistance value of the second sampling resistor R2 according to the third voltage signal, and the first sampling resistor R1 has a fixed resistance value.
