Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the fields of power electronics and electrical engineering, and particularly to a DC SSPC current-limiting control system and its control method. Background Art

[0002] A Solid State Power Controller (SSPC) is an intelligent power distribution device with a power semiconductor as its core, integrating the switch control function of a relay and the fault protection function of a circuit breaker. As the core component of an aircraft solid-state power distribution system, the SSPC has the advantages of no contacts, no arc, no noise, rapid response, low electromagnetic interference, long service life, high reliability, and convenient computer remote control. Therefore, it is widely used in fields such as aircraft, tanks, ships, and civilian power distribution networks.

[0003] With the development trend of high voltage and DC in more-electric / all-electric aircraft, the number of capacitive loads in the power distribution system gradually increases, which poses new requirements for the DC SSPC to quickly and reliably connect large capacitive loads. However, due to the characteristic that the capacitor voltage cannot change suddenly, the power distribution system will generate inrush current when starting or suddenly adding capacitive loads, which is extremely likely to cause misoperation of the SSPC fault protection, thus affecting the normal operation of the power distribution system and even causing equipment such as the SSPC and load to burn out.

[0004] Currently, the current-limiting control methods for suppressing the inrush current when the DC SSPC connects capacitive loads are mainly divided into the power electronics current-limiting method and the current-limiting branch method. The power electronics current-limiting method uses power semiconductor devices as current-limiting devices. For example, by controlling the driving voltage of the power semiconductor device to change slowly so that it operates in the saturation region, it can better suppress the current stress when the DC SSPC connects capacitive loads. However, due to the limitation of the heat capacity of the power semiconductor device, the MOSFET of the SSPC is prone to thermal failure when quickly connecting large capacitive loads.

[0005] The current-limiting branch method uses a current-limiting resistor as a current-limiting device. For example, the current-limiting resistor is used to pre-charge the large capacitive load. When the capacitor voltage approaches the bus voltage, the main branch is switched in to bypass the current-limiting resistor, thereby completing the connection of the capacitive load. However, as the voltage level increases and the load capacitor capacity increases, the time required for pre-charging the load capacitor becomes longer; under the condition of resistive-capacitive load, due to the voltage-dividing effect of the current-limiting resistor, the secondary inrush current is large when the main branch is switched in; and the heat capacity of the power device is not fully utilized, resulting in an increase in the volume, weight, and cost of the SSPC. Therefore, the current traditional DC SSPC current-limiting control methods cannot achieve quick connection of large capacitive loads.

[0006] In addition, in the current research, a multi-segment current limiting control method for DC SSPC is proposed by combining voltage and current double closed-loop control and a current limiting branch. To a certain extent, this method can achieve rapid connection of large capacitive loads, but it has the disadvantages of complex control, difficult tuning of control parameters, susceptibility to interference, and poor practicability.

[0007] Therefore, there is an urgent need to study a current limiting control method for DC SSPC that can reliably and quickly connect large capacitive loads. Summary of the Invention

[0016] The current limiting state judgment circuit is used to judge whether to enter or exit the current limiting state according to the information data and output a signal to the current closed-loop current limiting control circuit;

[0017] The current closed-loop current limiting control circuit is used to receive the signal output by the current limiting state judgment circuit and adjust the control voltage corresponding to the main branch power tube in the RC network according to the SSPC channel current to achieve constant current control of the power distribution channel.

[0018] In a second aspect, the present application provides a control method for a DC SSPC current-limiting control system, and the method is implemented by using the DC SSPC current-limiting control system described above. The control method of the DC SSPC current-limiting control system includes:

[0019] Obtain a switch control signal and generate a control voltage according to the switch control signal;

[0021] Conduct or cut off the branch power distribution channel according to the processed voltage to provide a current path;

[0022] Determine corresponding information data based on the current path. The information data includes: SSPC channel current, load voltage, and SSPC input voltage. The SSPC channel current is the output current of the main power circuit, and the SSPC input voltage is the input voltage of the main power circuit;

When the current-limiting state judgment circuit detects that the inrush current enters the current-limiting state, it shuts off under the action of the current closed-loop current-limiting control circuit. As the inrush current decreases, the system charges the load capacitor with a constant current. Therefore, the SSPC current-limiting control time changes adaptively with the load. During the current-limiting process, the main power circuit commutates naturally and the thermal stress of the power devices is reasonably distributed, improving the control stability and thermal reliability.

[0077] This application aims to solve the problem that the impact current generated when the DC SSPC quickly connects a large capacitive load is likely to cause misprotection and thermal failure. The system adds a current-limiting branch to the main power branch, and combines an RC network and a current closed-loop current-limiting control circuit to control the working state of the MOSFET in stages, achieving effective suppression of the impact current.

The current-limiting branch quickly suppresses the impact current and pre-charges the load capacitor. As the impact current decreases, the main branch is gradually turned on, and the system charges the load capacitor with a constant current. Therefore, the SSPC current-limiting control time adapts to the load. During the current-limiting process, the main branch and the current-limiting branch of the system commutate naturally and the thermal stress of the power devices is reasonably distributed, improving the control stability and thermal reliability. In addition, when exiting the current-limiting state, the main branch is slowly turned on again under the control of the RC network, further suppressing the secondary impact current. This application can balance thermal reliability and rapidity, and has the advantages of strong load adaptability, simple control and strong practicability, and is applicable to fields such as aircraft, tanks, ships and civil power distribution networks.

[0081] The main power circuit includes: main branch, current-limiting branch and detection resistor Rsense The main branch is composed of the first power transistor Q1, and the current-limiting branch is composed of the second power transistor Q2 and the current-limiting resistor R Limit connected in series. The drain D of the second power transistor Q2 is connected to the first terminal of the current-limiting resistor R Limit . The main branch is in parallel with the current-limiting branch. The source S of the first power transistor Q1 in the main branch and the source S of the second power transistor Q2 in the current-limiting branch are connected to the analog circuit ground Fgnd. The drain D of the first power transistor Q1 in the main branch is connected to the second terminal of the current-limiting resistor R Limit in the current-limiting branch. One end of this parallel structure is the power input terminal P in of the DC solid-state power controller, which is connected to the positive pole of the external DC power source; the other end is connected in series with the detection resistor R sense to serve as the power output terminal P out of the DC SSPC, which is connected to the load to the power ground (i.e., the grounding terminal).

[0082] When the DC SSPC receives the turn-on command, the driving voltage of the main branch, that is, the driving voltage U GS-main output by the driving power amplifier circuit of the main branch, rises exponentially with a time constant τ1 under the control of the main-branch RC network. At the same time, the driving voltage of the current-limiting branch, that is, the driving voltage U GS-Limit output by the driving power amplifier circuit of the current-limiting branch, rises exponentially with a time constant τ2 (τ2 < τ1) under the control of the current-limiting-branch RC network. Therefore, the rising speed of the driving voltage U GS-Limit of the current-limiting branch is faster than that of the driving voltage U GS-main of the main branch.

[0083] When the DC SSPC is connected to a large capacitive load, when the driving voltage U GS-Limit of the current-limiting branch rises to the turn-on voltage U GS-th-Limit of the second power transistor Q2, the current-limiting branch starts to conduct, and the SSPC current I SSPC rises rapidly. Due to the existence of the current-limiting resistor R Limit , the inrush current is effectively suppressed. When the SSPC current feedback value, that is, the SSPC channel current I FB is fed back to the corresponding voltage in the current-limiting state judgment circuit and rises to the second reference voltage, the current-limiting state judgment circuit outputs a high-level Limit signal. Under the action of the current closed-loop current-limiting control circuit, the main-branch driving control signal U gc-main is pulled low, and the first power transistor Q1 is in the off state. At this time, the load capacitor and the current-limiting resistor R Limit constitute a first-order RC circuit, and the SSPC current I SSPC exponentially decreases as the load capacitor is charged. When the difference between the SSPC current feedback value I FB and the first reference voltage decreases to a certain extent, the current closed-loop control circuit controls the driving voltage U GS-mainGradually rises. In this stage, the current-limiting resistor R Limit endures the main thermal stress.

[0084] When the driving voltage U of the main branch GS-main reaches the turn-on voltage U of the first power transistor Q1 GS-th-main , the main branch starts to conduct. Under the action of the current closed-loop current-limiting control circuit, the SSPC current I SSPC remains at a constant value, and the load voltage rises linearly. As the load voltage rises, the SSPC current I SSPC gradually commutates from the current-limiting branch to the main branch naturally. In this stage, the current-limiting resistor R Limit shares the thermal stress with the first power transistor Q1, and the duration of this stage decreases adaptively with the decrease of the load capacitance value.

[0085] When the feedback value U of the load voltage L_FB reaches the voltage threshold U th , the output Limit signal of the current-limiting state judgment circuit is reset to a low level, and the current-limiting control circuit is cut out of the control loop. At this time, the DC SSPC exits the current-limiting state. Subsequently, the driving voltage U of the main branch GS-Limit is controlled by the RC network of the main branch again and rises exponentially, realizing the secondary slow turn-on of the DC SSPC, thereby further suppressing the inrush current. Finally, the main branch is fully conducted and bypasses the current-limiting branch until the load capacitance is fully charged.

[0095] The embodiment of the present application also provides a control method for a DC SSPC current limiting control system, and this method is implemented by using the DC SSPC current limiting control system; the method includes:

[0096] Obtain the switch control signal and generate a control voltage according to the switch control signal; perform power amplification processing on the control voltage to obtain the processed voltage; perform conduction or cutoff processing on the branch power distribution channel according to the processed voltage to provide a current path. Determine the corresponding information data based on the current path; the information data includes: SSPC channel current, load voltage, and SSPC input voltage; the SSPC channel current is the output current of the main power circuit; the SSPC input voltage is the input voltage of the main power circuit.

[0097] Judge whether to enter or exit the current limiting state according to the information data, and output a signal to the current closed-loop current limiting control circuit, and adjust the control voltage corresponding to the main branch power tube in the RC network according to the SSPC channel current to achieve constant current control of the power distribution channel.

[0098] As an optional implementation manner, performing conduction or cutoff processing on the branch power distribution channel according to the processed voltage to provide a current path specifically includes:

[0099] When the driving voltage output by the current limiting branch drive power amplification circuit rises to the turn-on voltage of the second power tube, the current limiting branch in the main power circuit conducts; when the driving voltage output by the main branch drive power amplification circuit reaches the turn-on voltage of the first power tube, the main branch in the main power circuit conducts.

[0100] In an embodiment, judging whether to enter or exit the current limiting state according to the information data, and outputting a signal to the current closed-loop current limiting control circuit, and adjusting the control voltage corresponding to the main branch power tube in the RC network according to the SSPC channel current to achieve constant current control of the power distribution channel specifically includes:

[0101] When the current of the SSPC channel is fed back to the corresponding voltage in the current limiting state judging circuit and rises to the second reference voltage, the signal output by the current limiting state judging circuit is at a high level. At this time, according to the SSPC channel current and the said signal, the current closed-loop current limiting control circuit pulls down the main branch drive control signal, and the first power tube is in the off state; the high level is a voltage value greater than the set voltage; the main branch drive control signal is the control voltage output by the main branch RC network.

[0102] When the difference between the current of the SSPC channel fed back to the corresponding voltage in the current closed-loop current limiting control circuit and the first reference voltage decreases to within the set threshold range, the current closed-loop current limiting control circuit controls the main branch drive control signal to rise.

[0103] When the load voltage reaches the voltage threshold, the signal output by the current limiting state judging circuit is reset to a low level, and the current closed-loop current limiting control circuit is cut out of the control loop. At this time, the current limiting state is exited; the main branch drive control signal rises exponentially under the control of the main branch RC network to suppress the inrush current. At this time, the main branch conducts and bypasses the current limiting branch; the low level is a voltage value less than the set voltage.

[0104] Figure 4 It is the working timing diagram of the embodiment of the present application when starting a large pure capacitive load.

[0105] At time t1, the switch control instruction CMD issues a high level, and the main branch drive voltage U GS-main rises exponentially with a time constant τ1 under the control of the main branch RC network. At the same time, the current limiting branch drive voltage U GS-Limit rises exponentially with a time constant τ2 under the control of the current limiting branch RC network, and τ 1> τ2, the rising speed of the current limiting branch drive voltage U GS-Limit is faster than that of the main branch drive voltage U GS-main .

[0106] t2 - t3: At time t2, the current limiting branch drive voltage U GS-Limit rises to the turn-on voltage U GS-th-Limit of the second power tube Q2, the current limiting branch starts to conduct, and the SSPC current I SSPC rises rapidly. Due to the existence of the current limiting resistor R Limit , the inrush current is suppressed. When the feedback value I FB of the SSPC current rises to the second voltage reference Ref2, the current limiting state judging circuit outputs Limit as a high level. Under the action of the current closed-loop current limiting control circuit, the main branch drive control signal U gc-main is pulled down, and the first power tube Q1 is in the off state. The load capacitor and the current limiting resistor R Limit form a first-order RC circuit. As the load capacitor is charged, the SSPC current ISSPC The exponential decreases, and the difference between the SSPC current feedback value I FB and the first voltage reference Ref1 decreases. After a certain time, the current closed-loop control circuit controls the main branch drive voltage U GS-main to gradually rise. During this stage, the current-limiting resistor R Limit endures the main thermal stress.

[0107] t3 - t4: At time t3, the main branch drive voltage U GS-main reaches the turn-on voltage U GS-th-main of the first power transistor Q1, and the main branch starts to conduct. Under the action of the current closed-loop current-limiting control circuit, the SSPC current I SSPC remains at a constant value, the load voltage rises linearly, and the SSPC current I SSPC gradually commutates from the current-limiting branch to the main branch naturally. During this stage, the current-limiting resistor R Limit and the first power transistor Q1 share the thermal stress together, and the duration of this stage decreases adaptively with the decrease of the load capacitance value.

[0108] t4 - t5: At time t4, the load voltage line feedback value U L_FB reaches the voltage threshold U th , the current-limiting state judgment circuit outputs a current-limiting signal Limit to be reset to a low level, the current-limiting control circuit is cut out of the control loop, and at this time the DC SSPC exits the current-limiting state. Subsequently, the main branch drive voltage U GS-Limit is exponentially increased again under the control of the main branch RC network, the DC SSPC is slowly turned on for the second time, and the inrush current is suppressed for the second time.

[0109] At time t5, the load capacitor is fully charged, and the SSPC current I SSPC drops to 0.

[0110] The beneficial effects of this application are as follows:

[0111] 1) When the DC SSPC is connected to a large capacitive load, it can quickly suppress the inrush current, avoid misjudging as a short-circuit fault and tripping, and improve the load compatibility.

[0112] 2) Utilizing the principle of current closed-loop control, the SSPC has the characteristic that the current-limiting control time changes adaptively with the load, thus achieving the goal of quickly connecting the DC SSPC to a large capacitive load and improving the rapidity of the system.

[0113] 3) Making full use of the thermal capacity of the power devices in the DC SSPC, improving the thermal reliability of the system, and reducing the volume, weight and cost of the DC SSPC.

[0114] 4) During the current-limiting control process, the SSPC current can commutate from the current-limiting branch to the main branch naturally, with simple control, good stability, strong practicability and high reliability.

[0115] 5) During the process of the DC SSPC starting a capacitive load, when exiting the current limiting state, the main branch is controlled by the main branch RC network again and slowly turns on, effectively suppressing the generation of the secondary inrush current.
