[0043] In order to explain the technical content, achieved objectives and effects of the present invention in detail, the following is an explanation in combination with the implementation modes and the accompanying drawings.

[0044] Please refer to Figure 1, a power supply system, including an automatic transfer switch, two AC / DC units, two multi-level DC / DCs and a plurality of power supply ports;

[0045] The automatic transfer switch is used to connect to at least two power distribution networks and a backup power supply, and output two power supply paths to be connected to two AC / DC units respectively;

[0046] The output ends of the two AC / DC units are connected in series to one multi-stage DC / DC and connected to a power supply port;

[0047] In the two multi-level DC / DCs, each level of the DC / DC unit is connected to a power supply port.

[0048] From the above description, it can be seen that the beneficial effects of the present invention are: a method and device for controlling a power supply system of the present invention, in which an automatic switching switch is connected to the power supply, and the AC / DC is connected through two power supply paths, and the AC / DC is connected to two multi-level DC / DCs, and the DC / DC units of each level in the AC / DC and the multi-level DC / DC are connected to the power supply port, which can support power supply for loads of various power supply voltage levels, and each type of load port includes two power-distributable power supply channels, which replaces the UPS function and realizes 2N power redundancy for each load.

[0049] Furthermore, a common neutral line is provided between the two AC / DC units and between the two DC / DC units of the same level in the two multi-level DC / DCs;

[0050] Different electrodes of the two AC / DC units are connected to the neutral line, and connected to different electrodes of the two multi-level DC / DCs through the neutral line;

[0051] Different electrodes of two DC / DC units of the same level in two multi-level DC / DCs are connected to the neutral line, and are connected to different electrodes of the DC / DC unit of the next level through the neutral line.

[0052] From the above description, it can be seen that a neutral line shared by two power supply routes is designed, which reduces one power transmission line for two-channel power supply to each power supply port, reduces costs and improves power supply reliability and efficiency.

[0053] Further, the multi-level DC / DC includes three levels of DC / DC units;

[0054] The output ends of the two AC / DC units are connected to the external battery connection port;

[0055] In the two multi-level DC / DCs, the first-level DC / DC unit is connected to the dual power supply port of the first voltage level load, the second-level DC / DC unit is connected to the dual power supply port of the second voltage level load, and the third-level DC / DC unit is connected to the dual power supply port of the third voltage level load.

[0056] From the above description, it can be seen that the AC / DC unit is connected to the external battery connection port to connect the external battery. The external battery can reduce the risk of thermal runaway of the system. At the same time, based on the three-level DC / DC unit, it supports three voltage levels of power supply ports, which can match the power load, IT load, and low-voltage 48V load power requirements, effectively reducing the footprint of the data center wiring system and increasing site utilization.

[0057] Furthermore, each of the AC / DC units is obtained by connecting a plurality of AC / DC modules in parallel, and each of the DC / DC units is obtained by connecting a plurality of DC / DC modules in parallel.

[0058] From the above description, it can be seen that both the AC / DC unit and the DC / DC unit adopt a modular design to achieve sub-unit N+X redundancy, making the overall power supply reliability higher.

[0059] Please refer to Figure 2 , a method for controlling a power supply system, based on a power supply system, the power supply system includes a controller, an automatic transfer switch, two AC / DC units, two multi-level DC / DCs and a plurality of power supply ports;

[0060] The automatic transfer switch is used to connect to at least two power distribution networks and a backup power supply, and output two power supply paths to be connected to two AC / DC units respectively;

[0061] The output ends of the two AC / DC units are connected in series to one multi-stage DC / DC and connected to a power supply port;

[0062] In the two multi-level DC / DCs, each level of the DC / DC unit is connected to a power supply port;

[0063] And the implementation includes the following control steps:

[0064] Acquire the connection status of the automatic transfer switch electrical appliance with the power distribution network and the backup power supply, obtain power access information, and determine the voltages of the two power supply paths of the automatic transfer switch electrical appliance according to the power access information;

[0065] According to the power access information and the connection status of each of the power supply ports, the output voltages of the two AC / DC units and the DC / DC units at each level in the two multi-level DC / DCs are controlled.

[0066] From the above description, it can be seen that the beneficial effects of the present invention are: a method for controlling a power supply system of the present invention is based on a power supply system, in which an automatic switching switch is connected to the power supply, and AC / DC is connected through two power supply paths, and two multi-level DC / DCs are connected by AC / DC, and the DC / DC units of each level in the AC / DC and multi-level DC / DC are connected to the power supply port, which can support power supply for loads of various different power supply voltage levels, and each type of load port includes two power supply channels with power distribution, which replaces the UPS function and realizes 2N power redundancy for each load. At the same time, based on the control method, the power supply power of the two channels of each power supply port can be adjusted in real time according to information such as different distribution network capacities through a power distribution strategy, so as to realize multi-level voltage control and power distribution, thereby optimizing the overall efficiency, balancing the power consumption of the equipment, and improving the service life.

[0067] Further, determining the voltages of the two power supply paths of the automatic transfer switch electrical appliance according to the power supply access information includes:

[0068]

[0069] Among them, U in_1 and U in_2 Represents the input voltage of the two distribution networks, U in_d Indicates the input voltage of the backup power supply, U A and U B Respectively represent the voltages of the two power supply paths.

[0070] From the above description, it can be seen that the three AC input ports are converted into two power supply paths through the ATSE unit in the power distribution device, among which the voltage of the power supply path is preferentially provided according to the voltage of the distribution network. Only when the distribution network is not connected / cannot be used, the generator input voltage is used as the voltage of the two power supply paths.

[0071] Further, the determination of the output voltages of the two AC / DC units includes:

[0072] If the external battery connection port is not connected to an external battery, the output voltage U DC_A and U DC_B for:

[0073]

[0074] Among them, S 1 and S 2 is the capacity of the two distribution networks, k 1 is the coefficient, U Bus1_min and U Bus1_max are the minimum and maximum values ​​of the total voltage range.

[0075] From the above description, it can be seen that when the external battery connection port is not connected to a battery, the two AC / DC units are controlled to be in a constant voltage and current limiting working mode, and the output voltage is determined according to the power supply conditions and capacity ratio of the AC distribution network, as well as the total voltage range conditions.

[0076] Further, the determination of the output voltages of the two AC / DC units includes:

[0077] If the external battery connection port is connected to an external battery, the output voltage U of the two AC / DC units DC_A and U DC_B for:

[0078] |U DC_A |=U BAT_A ;

[0079] |U DC_B |=U BAT_B ;

[0080] Among them, U BAT_A and U BAT_B is the battery voltage;

[0081] Control the output current I of the two AC / DC units DC_A and I DC_B for:

[0082] I DC_A (t+1)=[(P DC1_A (t)+P DC2_A (t)+P DC3_A (t))-k 2_A (t)P BAT_A ] /

[0083] |U DC_A (t)|;

[0084] I DC_B (t+1)=[(P DC1_B (t)+P DC2_B (t)+P DC3_B (t))-k 2_B (t)P BAT_B ] /

[0085] |U DC_B (t)|;

[0086] Among them, k 2_A (t) and k 2_B (t) represents the battery participation at time t. When the battery participation is positive, it means the battery is discharging. When the battery participation is negative, it means the battery is charging. BAT_A and PBAT_B Indicates the rated power of the battery, P DC1_A (t) and P DC1_B (t) represents the output power of the first-stage DC / DC unit of the two-way multi-stage DC / DC at time t, P DC2_A (t) and P DC2_B (t) represents the output power of the second-stage DC / DC unit of the two-way multi-stage DC / DC at time t, P DC3_A (t) and P DC3_B (t) represents the output power of the third-stage DC / DC unit of the two-way multi-stage DC / DC at time t.

[0087] From the above description, it can be seen that when the external battery connection port is connected to the battery and the distribution network at the same time, the battery and the distribution network can simultaneously send power to the U DC_A and U DC_B Power supply, there is power distribution: the output voltage of the two AC / DC units is determined according to the voltage of the connected battery, and the two output currents at the next control moment are determined according to the total output power of all subsequent ports and the degree of battery power participation to achieve power distribution.

[0088] Furthermore, the output voltage of each DC / DC unit in the two-way multi-level DC / DC is determined by:

[0089] Determination of the output voltage of each stage of the DC / DC unit in the two-way multi-level DC / DC:

[0090]

[0091] U DCi_avg (t) = [U DCi_A (t)+U DCi_B (t)] / 2;

[0092] Among them, P i_A (t) and P i_B (t) represents the output power of the i-th level DC / DC unit in the two DC / DCs at time t, k 4_A and k 4_B represents the control coefficient, U DCi_A_ref (t+1) and U DCi_B_ref (t+1) represents the output voltage control setting value of the DC / DC unit at the i-th level in the two-way multi-level DC / DC at time t+1, U DC_A (t) and U DC_B (t) represents the output voltage of the two AC / DC units at time t.

[0093] It can be seen from the above description that for each DC / DC unit of a two-way multi-level DC / DC, when two ways are powered at the same time, the purpose of controlling the output power is achieved by controlling the output voltage of one way.

[0094] Furthermore, the output power of each stage of the DC / DC unit in the two-way multi-stage DC / DC is determined by:

[0095]

[0096] Among them, P DC1_A_ref (t+1) and P DC1_B_ref (t+1) represents the output power setting value of the two first-level DC / DC units corresponding to the dual power supply port of the first voltage level load at time t+1, U DC_A (t) and U DC_B (t) represents the output voltage of the two AC / DC units at time t, P DC2_A_ref (t+1) and P DC2_B_ref (t+1) represents the output power setting value of the two second-level DC / DC units corresponding to the dual power supply port of the second voltage level load at time t+1, U DC1_A (t) and U DC1_B (t) represents the output power of the first-stage DC / DC unit at time t, k 3_1 and k 3_2 Indicates the preset coefficient.

[0097] It can be seen from the above description that the output power ratio setting value of each DC / DC unit of the two-way multi-level DC / DC takes the output voltage ratio of the previous unit at the previous moment as a reference value.
