Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of power systems, and in particular relates to a power grid impedance simulation device, a design method and a use method. Background Art

[0002] With the global push for clean energy, the use of new energy sources such as wind and solar power is becoming increasingly widespread in power systems. The large-scale integration of new energy sources has significantly changed the structure and characteristics of the power system, gradually transforming the power grid from a traditional system dominated by synchronous generators to a "double-high" power system characterized by a high proportion of new energy sources and a high level of power electronics. During this transformation, the system's short-circuit ratio has gradually decreased, and weak grid characteristics have become increasingly apparent, posing severe challenges to the stable operation of the power system. To ensure the stable operation of the "dual-high" power system, it is crucial to test the adaptability of new energy converters under low short-circuit ratio, variable short-circuit ratio, and variable string compensation conditions. However, current experimental testing methods have obvious flaws. After completing one set of short-circuit ratio tests, the existing testing method must shut down the system and rearrange the grid impedance before testing another set of short-circuit ratio conditions. This method is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also fundamentally unable to simulate conditions where the grid short-circuit ratio changes in real time or suddenly, seriously affecting the efficiency of the test and the accurate simulation of actual grid operation. Although related invention patents have proposed online switchable grid impedance simulation devices, these devices still face numerous challenges in practical application. For one thing, existing devices only consider grid impedances composed of inductors. However, in actual testing, the actual grid impedance provided by power grid companies is often composed of resistance (R), inductance (L), and capacitance (C). This results in existing devices being unable to simulate variations in LC series compensation and the characteristics of RLC grid impedance, leading to significant deviations between test results and actual grid operation. Furthermore, existing technologies only provide switchable grid impedance combinations, focusing on variable or switchable inductance, but offer no guidance on component parameter selection or calculation methods for the simulation device. In field testing, simulation of specific grid short-circuit ratios (SCRs)—such as those required by grid connection permits or national standards (SCRs = 1.8, 2.5, 4, and 10)—is more important than the number of impedance combinations the device can accommodate. If the parameters of the grid short-circuit ratio simulation device are not properly selected during design, multiple impedance simulators and other external RLC systems will need to be connected in series and parallel to achieve the desired grid short-circuit ratio during actual testing. This will undoubtedly significantly increase testing costs and make the testing process more time-consuming, seriously hindering the efficient testing of new energy converters. In summary, the existing technology has obvious deficiencies in simulating grid series compensation and short-circuit ratio, and cannot meet the needs of adaptability testing of new energy converters under the "double-high" power system.

[0020] Beneficial effects of the present invention: 1. Solve the inefficiency problem of existing test methods in stopping and changing working conditions, and realize dynamic real-time switching Switching between short-circuit ratio and series compensation conditions without downtime: This device utilizes a controller to control contactor switching and automatic sliding rheostat adjustment, enabling online switching between different short-circuit ratio and series compensation conditions. For example, through pre-set contactor switching codes and delay logic, the controller automatically switches impedance upon receiving a command, eliminating time-consuming downtime and significantly improving testing efficiency.

[0021] Dynamic simulation of grid parameter mutation conditions: The present invention can achieve rapid switching of working conditions (such as 1-2s delayed switching) through the switch logic control program, and can reproduce the working conditions of short-circuit ratio mutation in the actual power grid, making the test closer to the real operation scenario.

[0022] 2. Considering both RLC impedance characteristics and series compensation corresponding working condition simulation to improve test accuracy Complete simulation of the RLC impedance characteristics of actual power grids: This invention uses a combination of an automatic sliding resistor, an inductor, and a capacitor to accurately simulate RLC series or parallel impedance. For example, by combining capacitors and inductors in series and parallel, it simulates changes in series compensation. This overcomes the limitation of existing technologies that cannot simulate LC series compensation, making test results more accurate than actual power grid operation.

[0023] Covering typical short-circuit ratio and series compensation conditions required by national standards: This invention, based on national standards for converter testing (e.g., SCR = 1.8, 2.5, 4, 10), combined with RLC parameter calculation methods, accurately replicates grid weakness (short-circuit ratio) and compensation levels (series compensation). For example, different short-circuit ratios can be achieved by combining three inductors in series and parallel, and different series compensation levels can be achieved by combining two capacitors in series and parallel, avoiding test deviations caused by improper parameter selection in existing technologies.

[0024] 3. Optimize component parameter selection to reduce testing costs and complexity Parameter calculation method based on the minimum number of components: Compared to existing devices that lack a parameter selection method, requiring multiple impedance simulators and resulting in high costs, this presents a scientific parameter calculation logic: For inductor selection, a single set of inductors is used to achieve an SCR of 2.4. Two sets of inductors are connected in series and parallel to achieve SCRs of 1.8 and 10, and an additional set of inductors is added in parallel to achieve an SCR of 4, covering four short-circuit ratio conditions with only three sets of inductors. For capacitor selection, two sets of capacitors are connected in series and parallel to achieve TCRs of 10%, 40%, and 60%, meeting the series compensation requirements with only two sets of capacitors. For resistor selection, a single automatic sliding rheostat (R = 0-40Ω) is used to adjust the resistance component. This method achieves multi-condition simulation with a minimum number of components, avoiding the investment in multiple sets of equipment and significantly reducing testing costs.

[0025] Eliminates the tedious operation of connecting external RLC components in series and parallel: Compared to existing technologies that require additional external RLC components to meet testing requirements due to unreasonable parameter selection, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, this invention uses precise parameter calculation to enable the device to automatically combine the required impedance, eliminating the need for external components and simplifying the testing process.

[0026] 4. Automated control and logic design to improve operational convenience and safety Contactor coding and delay logic enable automated switching: This invention utilizes contactor switch coding and delayed action logic to avoid momentary short circuits during switching, improving device reliability. For example, when switching between operating conditions, the controller first executes the close command and then the open command after the circuit stabilizes, preventing component damage.

[0027] Host computer communication and one-touch operating mode switching: In operation, commands are sent from the host computer, and the controller automatically matches the switch code and executes the switch switching, without manual intervention. For example, the tester only needs to query the "Simulated Operating Condition-Switch Combination Table" and send a command from the host computer, and the device automatically completes the impedance reconstruction, reducing operational complexity and human error.

[0028] 5. Standardized design adapts to national standard testing requirements and has strong scalability The design method of this invention is based on typical short-circuit ratio operating conditions for converter testing as specified in national standards. The parameter calculation process can be flexibly adjusted based on actual grid requirements. For example, if a new operating condition is required, only a few components need to be added to the existing topology or the switch coding needs to be modified, without requiring a complete hardware redesign. This provides superior adaptability and scalability compared to existing fixed-circuit devices. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments.

[0031] Therefore, the following detailed description of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the invention as claimed, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments derived by persons of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] Example 1 This embodiment discloses a power grid impedance simulation device, a design method, and a method of use. As a preferred implementation scheme of the present invention, its design method is to obtain a power grid impedance simulation device by sequentially implementing component parameter calculation and selection, device hardware connection topology, and setting a switch logic control program.

[0033] Component parameter calculation and selection: Determine the required component types based on the simulation test requirements of the short-circuit ratio and series compensation corresponding working conditions; based on the short-circuit ratio working conditions required by the actual national standard for converter testing, combine the minimum number of components criterion to obtain the number of components and electrical parameter values.

[0034] The short-circuit ratio (SCR) of the power grid is essentially the ratio of the short-circuit capacity of the AC busbar of the power grid to the rated capacity of the connected converter. Its mathematical expression is: ( is the short-circuit capacity, is the rated capacity of the converter). When the grid impedance increases, the short-circuit capacity decreases, the SCR value decreases, and the system stability decreases accordingly. The series compensation ratio (TCR) is the ratio of the compensation capacity of the series capacitor to the line transmission capacity, and the expression is ( is the capacitive reactance, Based on this, this technical solution accurately selects components that can simulate the impedance characteristics of the power grid according to the electrical characteristics of the short-circuit ratio and series compensation.

[0035] The automatic sliding resistor continuously adjusts the resistance value by changing the length of the resistance wire connected to the circuit. Its principle is based on Ohm's law, that is, ( is the resistivity, is the resistance wire length, The inductor component generates inductive reactance in the circuit based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. ( Indicates frequency, Indicates the inductance value) and is used to simulate the inductive impedance of the power grid. Capacitor components generate capacitive reactance according to the capacitance characteristics. ( (where is the capacitance value) is used to offset some inductive impedance in the simulation of the series compensation operating condition. Contactors use electromagnetic mechanisms to control the opening and closing of contacts. The principle is that energizing the electromagnetic coil generates a magnetic field, which attracts the armature and drives the contacts, thus switching the circuit.

[0036] In summary, this technical solution determines that the required component types include automatic sliding resistors, inductors, capacitors and contactors based on the power grid short-circuit ratio and series compensation corresponding working condition simulation test requirements.

[0037] The short-circuit ratio conditions required by the actual national standard for converter testing are typical scenarios based on the actual degree of grid weakness. ( is the rated voltage, The calculation logic of the equivalent impedance of the power grid is to select the model by the principle of minimum number of components, which is to apply the circuit equivalent transformation principle (such as star-delta transformation and impedance series-parallel formula) to meet the requirements of ( is the error impedance, Optimize the component combination under the accuracy of (target impedance).

[0038] Device hardware connection topology: The selected components are connected on demand, and the controller is used to control the on and off of the contactor and the adjustment of the automatic sliding resistor, so that the automatic sliding resistor can be coordinated with different inductors to realize the simulation of working conditions corresponding to different short-circuit ratios, and different capacitor combinations can realize the simulation of working conditions corresponding to series compensation degrees. The opening and closing coordination of different contactors can realize switching between working conditions corresponding to different short-circuit ratios, between working conditions corresponding to different series compensation degrees, and between working conditions corresponding to short-circuit ratios and working conditions corresponding to series compensation degrees.

[0039] The controller can be a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) or MCU (Micro Control Unit), which controls the contactor coil voltage through the digital output port (DO), and uses the on and off of the contactor main contacts to build different impedance circuits. The automatic sliding resistor can be driven by a servo motor to move the slider. The servo motor pulse number and resistance value follow ( is the maximum resistance, The number of pulses =Total pulse number) linear relationship, combined with the controller's PWM (pulse width modulation) signal for continuous regulation. The capacitors and inductors adopt a modular parallel structure, with contactor switches combining capacitance and inductance values ​​to simulate operating conditions with varying short-circuit ratios and series compensation.

[0040] Set the switch logic control program: Set the switch logic control program in the controller so that when the controller receives the grid operating condition switching instruction, it can realize the switching between the operating conditions corresponding to different short-circuit ratios, between the operating conditions corresponding to different series compensation degrees, and between the operating conditions corresponding to the short-circuit ratio and the operating conditions corresponding to the series compensation degree by executing the preset switch logic control program.

[0041] The switch logic control program can be designed based on a state machine model, defining state nodes such as the initial state, standby state, switching state, and operating state. State transition conditions include command reception, component state feedback (such as the DI input of the contactor auxiliary contact), time delay (such as waiting for stabilization after a preset time interval after switching), etc. Furthermore, the logic can be written in ladder diagrams or ST (structured text) language. The core algorithm is as follows: when a working condition switching command (including target SCR and TCR values) is received, the switch logic control program calculates the required component combination through a table lookup method, generates a contactor action sequence, and prevents short circuits through hardware interlocking logic (for example, two contactors in the same branch cannot be closed at the same time).

[0042] According to the above design method, a grid impedance simulation device is obtained, and the grid impedance simulation device is applied to practice, that is, a method for using the grid impedance simulation device is provided, such as Figure 2 As shown, the following steps are included: Step 1, such as Figure 1 As shown, connect the grid impedance simulation device's acquisition input to the converter under test, connect the simulation test device's output to the grid, and create a table that maps simulated operating conditions to switch combination states. This mapping relationship between physical connections and electrical parameters ensures the device accurately senses the converter's operating status and outputs simulated grid impedance. This pre-configured mapping table allows for quick recall of operating conditions, significantly reducing manual configuration time and improving testing efficiency.

[0043] The table of correspondence between simulated working conditions and switch combination states is a mapping table of simulated working conditions and contactor switch codes shown in Table 1 below:

[0044] Step 2: Communicate with the host computer via Ethernet (IEEE 802.3 standard) or RS485 (Modbus-RTU protocol), using the communication protocol compliant with DL / T634.5104-2009, to implement command transmission and data exchange. The grid impedance simulator is activated and initialized. This initialization process may include: ① Contactor status verification (reading the auxiliary contact status via the DI port to ensure that all contactors are in the preset state); ② Component parameter self-test (such as detecting the initial position of a rheostat and testing the capacitor withstand voltage); and ③ Controller register reset (such as resetting PID control parameters). This process follows the PLC's scan cycle mechanism to ensure synchronization of module states.

[0045] In step three, with the converter connected to the grid and started, the system queries the table that maps simulated operating conditions to switch combinations based on the desired simulated operating conditions (corresponding to the grid's vulnerability and compensation level). The corresponding switch combination state is retrieved, and the host computer issues switching instructions based on the power grid operating conditions under the corresponding switch combination state. The goal is to enable the grid impedance simulator to replicate typical operating conditions of the actual grid, providing standardized grid conditions for converter testing. Digital command transmission enables precise control of operating conditions, avoiding errors associated with manual adjustment of component parameters.

[0046] In step 4, the controller uses a scanning cycle mechanism (such as scanning the DO port once every 10ms) to detect the instruction reception status and determine whether the grid operating condition switching instruction has been received; if so, it proceeds to step 5; if not, it directly proceeds to step 6.

[0047] In step 5, the controller controls the opening or closing of the corresponding contactor and adjusts the automatic sliding resistor according to the received grid operating condition switching instruction, thereby completing the switching of the simulated operating condition required by the test target.

[0048] Step 6: Determine whether the current test work is completed based on the test requirements; if so, proceed to step 7; if not, return to step 3.

[0049] Step 7: The converter is shut down, the corresponding contactor is reset, and the grid impedance simulation device returns to the initialization state.

[0050] Example 2 This embodiment discloses a power grid impedance simulation device, design method and use method. As a preferred implementation scheme of the present invention, based on Example 1, the automatic sliding resistor selects high power, the number is 1, and it is represented by R. It is only necessary to design the upper limit of the resistance value. Considering that the equivalent resistance of most power grids in actual tests is within 8-22Ω, in order to ensure design redundancy, the resistance range of the automatic sliding resistor is [0, 40]Ω.

[0051] Example 3 This embodiment discloses a power grid impedance simulation device, design method, and use method. As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, based on Example 1 or Example 2, in the calculation and selection of component parameters, the inductance quantity and electrical parameter values ​​are obtained as follows: Obtain the test requirements for the short-circuit ratio of the power grid in the national standard of the converter grid access standard, that is, the short-circuit ratio Four typical operating conditions were tested when the short circuit ratio (SCR) was 1.8, 2.5, 4 and 10. Based on the test requirements of the national standard for wind power converters for grid access with a short circuit ratio (SCR) of 1.8, 2.5, 4 and 10, and substituted into the grid impedance calculation formula, the grid inductance value can be obtained. On this basis, the grid inductance value is deduced based on the inductance configuration principle of the mapping relationship between electromagnetic induction and short circuit ratio. The calculation formula , the grid inductance value The calculation formula is Converted to get. Among them: Indicates short-circuit ratio; Indicates the short-circuit ratio condition, that is ; Indicates the grid voltage; Indicates the grid-connected capacity of new energy; is the reference value of the grid impedance, denoted as ; is the inductor impedance, , Indicates frequency.

[0052] To achieve the simulation of four working conditions, at least two groups of inductance units are required to be connected in series and parallel. This technical solution takes economic optimization into consideration and aims to achieve the simulation of four typical working conditions with SCR of 1.8, 2.5, 4 and 10 with the least inductance. That is, it is preset to first use two groups of inductances to form the grid impedance. The two groups of inductances are inductances. and inductance .inductance and inductance When connected in series, the grid impedance is the largest, and the short-circuit ratio is 1.8; and inductance When connected in parallel, the grid impedance is minimum and the short-circuit ratio is 10. This allows the simulation of the corresponding operating conditions with SCRs of 1.8 and 10, respectively, and .

[0053] Combined with the above grid inductance calculation formula under the maximum and minimum grid impedance conditions, the inductance value is derived and inductance value The product of .
