[0057] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of this application more clear, the following further describes this application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0058] The technical context of the embodiments of the present application is described below.

[0059] In the battery field, the mathematical model of solar photovoltaic cells is applied to the resonant conversion circuit to simulate the output characteristics of the solar cell, so that the load can operate under maximum power point tracking conditions, thereby realizing specific functional testing.

[0060] See Figure 1 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the circuit topology structure of the voltage regulation method provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 In this scheme, the DC source module is the energy source, typically a battery. The resonant converter circuit is the energy conversion module, used to convert the DC source output voltage into a voltage suitable for the maximum power point tracking module. The maximum power point tracking module is an energy-consuming load with maximum power point tracking functionality. In practical applications, since the load has maximum power point tracking functionality, the resonant converter circuit must have the voltage and current output characteristics of a solar photovoltaic cell.

[0061] Furthermore, in order to achieve the voltage and current output characteristics of the solar photovoltaic cell in the resonant conversion circuit, the mathematical model of the solar photovoltaic cell (i.e., the photovoltaic simulation curve) needs to be applied to the resonant conversion circuit. Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a circuit topology diagram of the resonant conversion circuit. Figure 2 In the resonant converter circuit, the input voltage V in , sampling resonant converter circuit output current I out , sampling resonant converter circuit output voltage V out In the embodiment of the present application, a reference voltage is obtained from a mathematical model of a solar photovoltaic cell, and the switching frequencies of the four switching tubes S1, S2, S3 and S4 in the resonant conversion circuit are obtained through a controller to adjust the output voltage of the circuit.

[0062] The controller is a proportional integral controller (PI) controller. Figure 3 Schematic diagram of the output voltage control loop of the resonant converter circuit, V ref Refers to obtaining I by querying the photovoltaic simulation curve out The corresponding reference voltage, V out Refers to the actual output voltage of the resonant converter circuit. The switching frequency of the resonant converter circuit is dynamically adjusted through the PI controller. To adjust the voltage gain of the resonant converter circuit, thereby controlling the output voltage of the resonant converter circuit .

[0063] Figure 3 The output voltage control strategy can be characterized by the following calculation formula:

[0064]

[0065]

[0066] in, is the preset scale factor, is the preset integral coefficient, is the integral term, For the resonant converter circuit The output voltage at the moment, for The reference voltage at that moment.

[0067] It's important to note that when used to simulate solar cells, the resonant converter circuit topology primarily replicates the nonlinear current-voltage (IV) characteristics of solar cells by combining resonant characteristics with control strategies. Resonant converter circuits require a soft start to gradually establish resonant conditions, allowing the energy in the resonant capacitor and inductor to increase steadily, avoiding transient high voltages or high currents.

[0068] Common soft-start methods include: (1) Duty cycle soft-start: gradually increase the duty cycle of the switch by 50% at a fixed frequency (target operating frequency). (2) Frequency soft-start: gradually reduce the switching frequency from a value far above the resonant frequency to the operating frequency (resonant frequency). (3) Hybrid soft-start: first perform duty cycle soft-start, then perform frequency soft-start.

[0069] Ideally, the resonant converter circuit is soft-started in the no-load state, and the output voltage corresponding to the no-load state is the open-circuit voltage U of the photovoltaic simulation curve. oc , open circuit voltage U of photovoltaic simulation curve oc is the maximum voltage value of the curve. After the resonant converter circuit soft start is completed, the switching frequency should be low, corresponding to a high voltage gain.

[0070] However, in actual application scenarios, after the target circuit is soft-started, the actual output voltage of the target circuit is often inconsistent with the open-circuit voltage. In this case, how to make the output voltage of the target circuit after soft-start gradually and smoothly transition to the open-circuit voltage is a technical problem that needs to be urgently solved in this field.

[0071] The following specific embodiments describe in detail the technical solution of the present application and how the technical solution of the present application solves the above-mentioned technical problems. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments. The embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0072] In an exemplary embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, a voltage regulation method is provided, the method comprising the following steps:

[0073] S401 , obtaining a voltage tracking difference of a target circuit at each moment, where the voltage tracking difference at each moment varies with the output voltage of the target circuit.

[0074] The target circuit refers to a circuit with voltage and current output characteristics of a solar photovoltaic cell, which can be a resonant conversion circuit, a DC-DC conversion circuit, an inverter circuit, etc. In the embodiment of the present application, the target circuit is illustrated as a resonant conversion circuit. The specific circuit structure can be found in the aforementioned Figure 2 The topology diagram and description are not repeated here.

[0075] In the embodiment of the present application, the voltage regulation process is applied after the soft start of the target circuit is completed and the output voltage of the target circuit has not yet reached the open-circuit voltage of the target circuit. During this stage, the voltage tracking difference at each moment is determined based on the output voltage of the target circuit at each moment, and the switching frequency of the target circuit at each moment is adjusted based on the voltage tracking difference at each moment, thereby adjusting the output voltage of the target circuit at each moment and the next moment. This cycle is repeated until the output voltage of the target circuit smoothly transitions to the open-circuit voltage.

[0076] As a feasible method for determining the voltage tracking difference, the determination process can be: for any moment, the output voltage at that moment can be input into a preset voltage tracking difference model, and the input voltage value is analyzed and inferred through the voltage tracking difference model to output the voltage tracking difference corresponding to that moment.

[0077] As another feasible method for determining the voltage tracking difference, the determination process may also be: for any moment, under preset constraints, the voltage tracking difference of the target circuit at that moment is determined based on the output voltage of the target circuit at the previous moment, the control parameters of the controller, and the output voltage of the target circuit at the end of the soft start.

[0078] S402 , obtaining a reference voltage at the current moment according to the output voltage of the target circuit at the previous moment and the voltage tracking difference at the current moment.

[0079] The output voltage of the target circuit at the previous moment and the voltage tracking difference at the current moment are superimposed to obtain the reference voltage at the current moment:

[0080]

[0081] in, is the reference voltage at the output of the target circuit at time t, is the output voltage of the target circuit at time t-1, is the voltage tracking difference at time t.

[0082] S403 , based on the reference voltage at the current moment and the output voltage at the previous moment, controlling the switching frequency of the target circuit at the current moment to adjust the initial output voltage of the target circuit to the open circuit voltage corresponding to the target circuit.

[0083] It should be emphasized that in the process of adjusting the starting output voltage of the target circuit to the open-circuit voltage, in order to ensure the smoothness of the voltage change of the target circuit, the embodiment of the present application adopts multiple control cycles for gradual adjustment, for example, the switching frequency of the target circuit is adjusted once according to a preset time interval.

[0084] Based on this, at the moments corresponding to different regulation cycles, different calculation strategies are adopted to determine the switching frequency of the target circuit at the current moment.

[0085] In an embodiment of the present application, based on obtaining the voltage tracking difference of the target circuit at each moment, a reference voltage at the current moment is obtained based on the output voltage of the target circuit at the previous moment and the voltage tracking difference at the current moment. Based on the current reference voltage and the output voltage at the previous moment, the switching frequency of the target circuit at the current moment is controlled to adjust the initial output voltage of the target circuit to the corresponding open-circuit voltage of the target circuit. The voltage tracking difference at each moment gradually changes with the output voltage of the target circuit at each moment. In this way, the voltage tracking difference at each moment is dynamically determined based on the output voltage at each moment, and the reference voltage of the target circuit at different moments is gradually and dynamically determined. The switching frequency of the target circuit at the current moment is gradually and dynamically adjusted based on the current reference voltage and the output voltage at the previous moment. This allows for gradual adjustment of the output voltage, making it less likely for frequency abrupt changes, excessively rapid voltage changes, or overvoltage to occur during the transition from the output voltage of the target circuit to the open-circuit voltage. This ensures a smooth transition from the initial output voltage of the target circuit to the corresponding open-circuit voltage of the target circuit, which is beneficial to the stability of the target circuit.

[0086] As can be seen from the preceding embodiments, at any given moment, the voltage tracking difference corresponding to the target circuit at that moment is one of the important bases for determining the target circuit's reference voltage at that moment, and is crucial for adjusting the target circuit's switching frequency at that moment. Based on this, the following describes how to obtain the voltage tracking difference of the target circuit at each moment.

[0087] In an exemplary embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, the voltage tracking difference of the target circuit at each moment is obtained ,include:

[0088] S501 , determining a voltage change difference at each moment based on a frequency mutation tolerance of a target circuit, an output voltage at a previous moment, an open-circuit voltage, and an initial output voltage of the target circuit at each moment.

[0089] The initial output voltage is the output voltage of the target circuit at the end of the soft start, that is, the starting output voltage in the above embodiment.

[0090] The frequency mutation tolerance of the target circuit refers to the single adjustment upper limit of the switching frequency of the target circuit. The frequency mutation tolerance in the embodiment of the present application can be set based on an empirical value, or it can be determined by evaluating multiple candidate frequency mutation tolerances.

[0091] At any given moment, the voltage variation difference of the target circuit at that moment changes with the output voltage of the target circuit at that moment, and the relationship between the two can be characterized using a preset voltage variation difference calculation module function. Thus, the target circuit's frequency mutation tolerance, the target circuit's output voltage at that moment, the open-circuit voltage, and the initial output voltage can be input into the preset voltage variation difference calculation function to calculate the voltage variation difference of the target circuit at that moment.

[0092] S502 , determining a fixed voltage difference at each moment according to the frequency mutation tolerance of the target circuit.

[0093] It should be noted that the fixed voltage difference is a constant value greater than 0. In other words, the fixed voltage difference corresponding to different moments in the voltage regulation process is the same value.

[0094] Optionally, the fixed voltage difference may be determined based on a mapping relationship between the frequency mutation tolerance and the fixed voltage difference, or the fixed voltage difference may be calculated based on adjustment parameters of a frequency adjustment controller of the target circuit and the frequency mutation tolerance of the target circuit.

[0095] S503 , obtaining a voltage tracking difference at each moment according to the voltage fixed difference and the voltage changing difference.

[0096] At any moment, the voltage fixed difference and the voltage change difference corresponding to the target circuit at that moment are merged to obtain the voltage tracking difference of the target circuit at that moment.

[0097] In the embodiments of the present application, a voltage variation difference is determined at each moment based on the target circuit's frequency mutation tolerance, the target circuit's output voltage at the previous moment, the open-circuit voltage, and the initial output voltage. This ensures the rationality and reliability of the voltage variation difference. Furthermore, a fixed voltage difference is determined at each moment based on the target circuit's frequency mutation tolerance to ensure that the target circuit's output voltage consistently maintains an upward trend. Therefore, the voltage tracking difference at each moment, determined by comprehensively considering the fixed voltage difference and the voltage variation difference at each moment, is also reasonable and accurate.

[0098] Next, an embodiment is used to describe the frequency mutation tolerance in step S501. The determination process is described, including:

[0099] A performance test is performed on the target circuit based on the initial switching frequency and the preset frequency increment of the target circuit to obtain a performance test result. If the performance test result corresponding to the first target switching frequency of the target circuit does not meet the preset requirements, the frequency mutation tolerance is determined based on the target switching frequency, the initial switching frequency and the preset frequency increment.

[0100] Based on the initial switching frequency and preset frequency increment of the target circuit, multiple switching frequency test values ​​are determined, and the performance of the target circuit at different switching frequency test values ​​is tested in ascending order. During the test process, if the performance test result corresponding to the first target switching frequency of the target circuit does not meet the preset requirements, the difference between the target switching frequency and the initial switching frequency is obtained, and the ratio between the difference and the preset frequency increment is rounded down. Then, the product of the rounded-down result and the preset frequency increment is calculated as the frequency mutation tolerance.

[0101] The target circuit is the resonant conversion circuit, and the initial switching frequency is the lower limit of the switching frequency. (Far from the resonant frequency point, the voltage gain changes rapidly), the preset frequency increment is For example, the steps for determining the frequency mutation tolerance are explained:

[0102] First test: Control the resonant converter circuit to operate at the initial switching frequency, and set the switching frequency test value to If the drain-source voltage (VDS) peak of the switch tube does not exceed its withstand voltage value, the resonant inductor current does not exceed its saturation value, and the switch tube can achieve soft opening, then the second set of tests is carried out. Otherwise, reduce the frequency increment and retest.

[0103] Second test: Control the resonant converter circuit to operate at the initial switching frequency, and set the switching frequency test value to If the VDS peak of the switch tube does not exceed its withstand voltage, the resonant inductor current does not exceed its saturation value, and the switch tube can achieve soft opening, the third set of tests is performed. Otherwise, the frequency mutation tolerance .

[0104] The third test: Control the resonant converter circuit to work at the initial switching frequency, and set the switching frequency test value to If the VDS peak of the switch tube does not exceed its withstand voltage, the resonant inductor current does not exceed its saturation value, and the switch tube can achieve soft opening, the third set of tests is performed. Otherwise, the frequency mutation tolerance .

[0105] Nth test: Control the resonant conversion circuit to operate at the initial switching frequency, and set the switching frequency test value to , it is observed that the VDS peak of the switch tube exceeds its withstand voltage value, or the resonant inductor current exceeds its saturation value, or the switch tube cannot achieve soft opening, and the frequency mutation tolerance is obtained. .

[0106] In an embodiment of the present application, a performance test is performed on the target circuit based on the initial switching frequency and the preset frequency increment of the target circuit. When the performance test result corresponding to the first target switching frequency of the target circuit does not meet the preset requirements, the frequency mutation tolerance is determined based on the target switching frequency, the initial switching frequency and the preset frequency increment. By gradually determining the frequency mutation tolerance of the target circuit through multiple groups of tests, it is possible to avoid to a large extent problems such as circuit soft opening, excessive peak value, inductor current oversaturation, etc. during the frequency adjustment process of the target circuit, thereby ensuring the safety of the target circuit.

[0107] Next, an embodiment is used to illustrate an implementation method of step S501 in the above embodiment, which is "determining the voltage change difference at each moment based on the frequency mutation tolerance of the target circuit, the output voltage of the target circuit at the previous moment, the open-circuit voltage and the initial output voltage at each moment", including the following steps (1) to (5).

[0108] (1) Obtain the intermediate voltage value between the initial output voltage and the open-circuit voltage, and the average voltage difference between the initial output voltage and the open-circuit voltage.

[0109] Among them, the intermediate voltage value is: , the average voltage difference is: , the initial output voltage is the output voltage of the target circuit at the end of soft start. is the output voltage of the resonant converter circuit at the end of the frequency soft start, that is, the initial output voltage in the embodiment of the present application, is the open circuit voltage of the target circuit.

[0110] (2) Obtain a first difference value of the target circuit at each moment based on the output voltage and the intermediate voltage value of the target circuit at each moment before the target circuit.

[0111] Among them, the first difference is: , For the resonant converter circuit The actual output voltage at that moment.

[0112] (3) Obtain the ratio between the first difference and the average voltage difference.

[0113] (4) Determine a second difference between the preset value and the ratio.

[0114] In one embodiment, the preset value may be 1, and the difference between the preset value and the ratio is the second difference.

[0115] (5) Obtain the voltage change difference at each moment based on the second difference, the preset proportional coefficient and the frequency mutation tolerance.

[0116] Among them, taking the target circuit as a resonant conversion circuit, and the target circuit as a frequency soft start or mixed soft start as an example, the voltage change difference of the resonant conversion circuit at time t is The expression is as follows:

[0117]

[0118] In the above formula, is the frequency mutation tolerance, is the proportional coefficient of the controller, is the open circuit voltage of the target circuit.

[0119] In the embodiment of the present application, the voltage change difference The existence of the reference voltage makes the reference voltage and With the output voltage of the target circuit The switching frequency of the resonant converter circuit changes gradually, thereby achieving a smooth transition of the output voltage when simulating the photovoltaic curve during the soft start of the resonant converter circuit.

[0120] Specifically, for and The intermediate voltage value between , it can be seen that in the above loop control process, the voltage at the output end of the resonant converter circuit is In this range, the ratio As the output voltage increases, it gradually decreases. The voltage at the output end of the resonant converter circuit is When the ratio is within the interval As the output voltage increases, it gradually increases. When the voltage change value increases gradually with the increase of output voltage, When the output voltage is within the range, the voltage change value gradually decreases as the output voltage increases; in the loop control process of the resonant conversion circuit, when the output voltage is the intermediate voltage value When the voltage change value reaches the maximum value in the loop control process, it also reflects that the voltage change value changes gradually in the loop control process, rather than suddenly. and end value When the voltage change value is the minimum, it also shows that at the starting point and end point of the above loop control, the output voltage changes smoothly to avoid excessive voltage changes when the loop control starts and overvoltage at the end.

[0121] Next, an implementation of step S502 of the aforementioned embodiment, “determining a fixed voltage difference at each moment according to the frequency mutation tolerance of the target circuit,” is described through an embodiment, including:

[0122] The voltage fixed difference is determined according to the ratio of the frequency mutation tolerance and the preset proportional coefficient of the closed-loop control.

[0123] Taking the PI controller regulating the switching frequency of the target circuit as an example, the preset proportional coefficient refers to the proportional coefficient of the PI controller. The ratio between the frequency mutation tolerance and the preset proportional coefficient is calculated to obtain the voltage fixed difference.

[0124] Continuing with the target circuit as an example of a resonant converter circuit, the voltage difference of the resonant converter circuit is fixed. The expression is as follows:

[0125]

Circuit simulation experiments were also conducted from two dimensions: switching frequency and output voltage.

[0207] When the voltage regulation method of directly cutting into the control loop in the related art is adopted, the parameter curve diagram of the target circuit is as follows: Figure 8a 、 Figure 8b 、 Figure 8c and Figure 8d shown.

Figure 9d The L7 in the figure represents the curve diagram of the output voltage changing with time. Figure 9d L8 in the figure represents the curve diagram of the reference voltage changing with time. Figure 9a 、 Figure 9b 、 Figure 9c and Figure 9d It can be seen that by adopting the voltage regulation method in the embodiment of the present application, the output voltage change at each moment of the output voltage of the target current at the final value of the frequency soft start is small, there is basically no frequency mutation, and the output voltage smoothly transitions to the open-circuit voltage of the photovoltaic simulation curve, without voltage overshoot and resonant current spike.

[0209] Combined with the above experimental comparison results, it can be explained that the voltage regulation method provided in the embodiment of the present application can make the target circuit have a smooth change in output voltage during the startup process of the resonant conversion circuit within the full input voltage range, without output overvoltage; the resonant current changes smoothly during the startup process of the resonant conversion circuit without current spikes; and after the resonant conversion circuit frequency soft start is completed, it switches smoothly to the photovoltaic simulation algorithm control loop, and the switching frequency changes smoothly.
