Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of high-voltage direct current transmission, and in particular to an IGCT overvoltage threshold adaptive regulation protection method and device. Background Art
[0002] High-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission technology based on line commutated converters (LCC-HVDC) boasts advantages such as large transmission capacity, long distances, high efficiency, low losses, and a small footprint, and is widely used worldwide. However, due to the semi-controlled nature of the thyristor, the fundamental component, when the AC voltage at the receiving-end converter station of an LCC-HVDC system distorts or drops due to AC system faults or other factors, the thyristors cannot reliably shut down, resulting in commutation failure in the converter. This is a unique failure mode of conventional LCC converters. To address commutation failure, a hybrid commutated converter (HCC) technology based on reverse-resistance IGCT (Integrated Gate-Commutated Thyristor) has been proposed. Unlike traditional LCCs, the HCC is essentially a combination of an LCC and a circuit breaker. When operating without triggering a lightning arrester and when the lightning arrester only serves to protect against shock, the HCC is equivalent to an LCC. However, when a fault on the AC side causes a voltage drop and commutation failure is imminent, the HCC needs to function as a circuit breaker, cutting off the current in its own arm and forcing it to commutate to the adjacent arm to complete commutation, thereby preventing commutation failure.
[0003] However, due to the large number of IGCT devices in the HCC connected in series and facing the high current shutdown condition, the voltage stress at both ends of the device is relatively harsh. The RC voltage equalization circuit of the conventional LCC is difficult to ensure the voltage equalization of a large number of direct-series devices, which can easily lead to the IGCT devices being broken down by the shutdown spike voltage. In order to overcome the voltage equalization problem of a large number of direct-series IGCT devices, discrete component lightning arresters are often used to protect a certain number of devices, that is, a component lightning arrester is connected in parallel with two IGCT devices and their dynamic and static voltage equalization circuits (hereinafter referred to as sub-modules). However, when the IGCT cannot be triggered to turn on normally due to communication failures, the bridge arm current will flow through the sub-module lightning arrester for a long time, causing abnormal energy absorption of the lightning arrester, which will be damaged to its energy limit and even affect the normal operation of the converter valve.
[0004] To prevent IGCT damage from overvoltage breakdown, existing technology uses a lightning arrester connected in series with a fuse and then connected in parallel with a single-stage IGCT. Alternatively, a lightning arrester connected in series with a fuse and then connected in parallel with a two-stage IGCT. If an overvoltage condition occurs in the entire module, the fuse immediately blows to prevent the lightning arrester from absorbing excessive energy. The introduction of fuses increases the risk and complexity of the converter valve, reducing reliability. Summary of the Invention

[0054] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0055] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0056] As disclosed in the background, line commutated converter (LCC-HVDC) high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission technology based on line commutated converters (LCC-HVDC) boasts advantages such as large transmission capacity, long distances, high efficiency, low losses, and minimal footprint, and is widely used worldwide. Due to the semi-controlled nature of the thyristor, the fundamental component, when the AC voltage at the receiving-end converter station of an LCC-HVDC system distorts or drops due to an AC system fault or other reason, the thyristor cannot reliably shut down, resulting in commutation failure in the converter. This is a unique failure mode of conventional LCC converters. To address the commutation failure problem, a hybrid commutated converter (HCC) technology based on reverse-resistance IGCT (Integrated Gate-Commutated Thyristor) has been proposed. Unlike traditional LCCs, the HCC is essentially a combination of an LCC and a circuit breaker. When operating without triggering a lightning arrester and when the lightning arrester only serves to protect against shock, the HCC is equivalent to an LCC. However, when a fault on the AC side causes a voltage drop and commutation failure is imminent, the HCC needs to function as a circuit breaker, cutting off the current in its own arm and forcing it to commutate to the adjacent arm to complete commutation, thereby preventing commutation failure.
[0057] However, due to the large number of IGCT devices in the HCC connected in series and facing the high current shutdown condition, the voltage stress at both ends of the device is relatively harsh. The RC voltage equalization circuit of the conventional LCC is difficult to ensure the voltage equalization of a large number of direct-series devices, which can easily lead to the IGCT devices being broken down by the shutdown spike voltage. In order to overcome the voltage equalization problem of a large number of direct-series IGCT devices, discrete component lightning arresters are often used to protect a certain number of devices, that is, a component lightning arrester is connected in parallel with two IGCT devices and their dynamic and static voltage equalization circuits (hereinafter referred to as sub-modules). However, when the IGCT cannot be triggered to turn on normally due to communication failures, the bridge arm current will flow through the sub-module lightning arrester for a long time, causing abnormal energy absorption of the lightning arrester, which will be damaged to its energy limit and even affect the normal operation of the converter valve.
[0058] To prevent IGCT damage from overvoltage breakdown, existing technology uses a lightning arrester connected in series with a fuse and then connected in parallel with a single-stage IGCT. Alternatively, a lightning arrester connected in series with a fuse and then connected in parallel with a two-stage IGCT. If an overvoltage condition occurs in the entire module, the fuse immediately blows to prevent the lightning arrester from absorbing excessive energy. The introduction of fuses increases the risk and complexity of the converter valve, reducing reliability.
[0059] To address the aforementioned issues, the present invention provides a method and device for adaptively adjusting the overvoltage threshold protection of an IGCT, comprising: obtaining the real-time terminal voltage of a hybrid commutation converter submodule and the operating status of the IGCT within the submodule; and adjusting the overvoltage protection threshold of the IGCT within the hybrid commutation converter submodule based on the real-time terminal voltage of the hybrid commutation converter submodule and the operating status of the IGCT within the submodule. The technical solution provided by the present invention not only eliminates the need for fuses, thereby improving the operational reliability of the converter valve, but also fills a technical gap in the protection strategy for lightning arresters in hybrid commutation converter valve assemblies, providing a reference for the design of engineering control and protection systems.
[0060] The above scheme is described in detail below.
[0061] Example 1
[0062] See attached Figure 1 , Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a flow chart showing the main steps of the IGCT overvoltage threshold adaptive regulation protection method according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the IGCT overvoltage threshold adaptive regulation protection method in the embodiment of the present invention mainly includes the following steps:
[0063] Step S101: obtaining the real-time terminal voltage of the submodule of the hybrid commutation converter and the operating status of the IGCT in the submodule;
[0064] Step S102: adjusting an overvoltage protection threshold of an IGCT in a submodule of the hybrid commutation converter based on the real-time terminal voltage of the submodule of the hybrid commutation converter and the operating status of the IGCT in the submodule.
[0065] In this embodiment, the hybrid commutation converter is a current source type converter valve with active shutdown capability. Its bridge arm circuit topology is similar to that of a traditional current source type converter valve and is composed of multiple submodules connected in series. Figure 2 shown.
[0066] The submodule of the hybrid commutation converter is composed of a component lightning arrester connected in parallel with two IGCTs and their dynamic and static voltage balancing circuits.
[0067] The HCC converter valve has two working modes:
[0068] Recovery-enhanced natural commutation mode: It can reduce the equivalent reverse recovery time of the device to microseconds, ensuring reliable commutation under normal working conditions and shallow fault conditions. In this mode, the IGCT does not actively shut down the current or shuts down a small current, such as Figure 3 As shown in A;
[0069] Forced commutation mode: Utilize the IGCT's repeated shutoff capability to actively shut down the bridge arm current, achieve rapid commutation under deep fault conditions, and resist the risk of commutation failure in the LCC converter valve. In this mode, the IGCT generally needs to shut down a large current, such as Figure 3 As shown in B.

[0073] Among them, U FOPI is the overvoltage level of the IGCT I section, X is the first preset threshold, Y is the second preset threshold, the value of Y depends on the tolerance of the IGCT dynamic voltage equalizing circuit, U FOPII It is the overvoltage level of section II of IGCT.
[0074] In one embodiment, the overvoltage level of section I and the overvoltage level of section II of the IGCT satisfy:
[0075] U FOPII <U op <U FOPI
[0076] U MOVc >U FOPI +U FOPII
[0077] U MOVp <2U FOPI
[0078] In the above formula, U opis the long-term design operating voltage of a single-stage IGCT, U MOVc is the reference voltage level of the component arrester, U MOVp Provides protection voltage levels for component lightning arresters.
[0079] In one embodiment, the first preset threshold is as follows:
[0080] X = min(M, N)
[0081] In the above formula, M is the upper limit of the number of times the IGCT can shut down the maximum current level, and N is the upper limit of the number of times the component lightning arrester can operate.
[0082] In one embodiment, the upper limit of the number of available operations of the component arrester satisfies:
[0083] N≥W / Ws
[0084] In the above formula, W is the design rated energy of the module lightning arrester, and Ws is the maximum energy absorbed by the module lightning arrester per cycle when the converter is in forced commutation shutdown mode during a system AC fault.

[0089] Preferably, the adjustment module is specifically used to:
[0090] When the 2-level IGCT in the submodule of the hybrid commutation converter cannot be turned on normally and the real-time terminal voltage of the submodule of the hybrid commutation converter exceeds 2U for X consecutive cycles FOPI When the overvoltage protection threshold of the second-level IGCT is simultaneously reduced to U FOPII ;
[0091] When any IGCT in the submodule of the hybrid commutation converter fails to conduct normally and the Y-cycle real-time terminal voltage of any IGCT exceeds U FOPI When the overvoltage protection threshold of any level IGCT is reduced to U FOPI ;
