TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of converter control, and particularly relates to a method for determining a stable region of a converter based on amplitude-phase contour lines. BACKGROUND
[0002] Grid-connected inverter (GCI) is a key interface between renewable energy and power grid, and its performance directly determines the performance of the power generation system. At present, the mainstream GCIs generally use Si-based power devices (such as Si IGBT). However, Si-based devices face the inherent contradiction between device loss and switching frequency. Especially in high-power scenarios, in order to maximize the conversion efficiency, the switching frequency is usually limited to several kilohertz. Therefore, the harmonic content of the output current of the Si-based GCI is greatly increased, and the power quality is seriously deteriorated. To alleviate this contradiction, new wide-bandgap devices (such as SiC MOSFET) are expected to significantly improve the dynamic performance and output quality of GCI due to their low conduction loss and high switching speed. However, the cost of SiC devices increases rapidly with the current level. In addition, the voltage level and reliability of existing commercial SiC devices are still difficult to meet the requirements of MVA-level high-power scenarios, and multiple SiC modules are usually used in parallel to meet the capacity requirements. The large number of parallel units greatly increases the system complexity, and the system development cycle and cost increase significantly.
[0003] Under this background, Si / SiC hybrid switching frequency inverter (HSFI) provides a new technical path for breaking through the inherent limitations of single devices and balancing performance and cost. The typical structure of HSFI is composed of a large-power Si IGBT main unit (MU) and a small-power SiC MOSFET auxiliary unit (SU) in parallel, as shown in Figure 16 . Among them, the MU efficiently handles most of the load power at a low switching frequency, and the SU accurately compensates the low-frequency ripple of the main unit at a high switching frequency, thereby combining high capacity and low harmonic output characteristics.
[0004] Although HSFI has made significant progress in device configuration and control strategy design, its system-level grid-connected adaptability still lacks in-depth research. Especially in the context of high penetration of distributed generation, HSFI is often connected to the public grid through long-distance lines, and such systems usually exhibit weak grid characteristics, that is, the grid impedance cannot be ignored and has a large variation range. Existing literature has extensively studied the stability problems of traditional multi-inverter systems, such as internal stability analysis, GCI-grid interaction behavior modeling, heterogeneous inverter system coupling mechanism and collaborative operation optimization strategy, etc. However, the MU and SU in HSFI share a unified controller, and their control links are tightly coupled, making the response path of the system to grid disturbances more complex. There is still a lack of systematic evaluation of the stability of inverter systems under varying grid impedance. SUMMARY
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present application is to provide a converter stability domain determination method based on amplitude-phase contour lines, to quantitatively evaluate the stability of the converter system under varying grid impedance.

Both of them are 0, which means the system is stable in the grid strength interval . Otherwise, the number of the encirclements of the point by the Nyquist curve in the grid strength interval , is at least one, which means the system is unstable in the grid strength interval .

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0013] In order to facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, the present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments and drawings. The contents mentioned in the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0014] Before explaining the present invention, it is worth mentioning that based on the equivalent single-input single-output (SISO) model of the HSFI grid-connected system, the impact of grid strength changes on the frequency domain stability of the HSFI system is analyzed in detail. Figure 1 Shows the different grid strengths (i.e. short circuit ratio The Nyquist curve of the HSFI system is shown in Fig. 2. The system parameters are listed in Table 1.
[0015] Table 1. System parameters of the HSFI system .
[0016] With the increase of , the system stability in both operating modes decreases. However, due to the introduction of an additional feedback channel in the harmonic compensation mode, it is more sensitive to the change of grid strength. When decreases to 0.75 (extremely weak grid condition), the Nyquist curve in the harmonic compensation mode has surrounded the critical point , indicating that the system is unstable. In contrast, the system in the direct parallel mode remains stable, indicating that it has stronger adaptability to grid disturbances.
[0017] Figure 2 Further, time-domain simulation waveforms of the HSFI system in the two control modes under different grid strength conditions are shown, including the dynamic response of output current and output power. In the strong grid condition ( = 5) and the weak grid condition ( = 2 and = 1), the current and power responses in both modes tend to be stable, and the system presents good dynamic performance. However, in the extremely weak grid condition where decreases to 0.75, the output current in the harmonic compensation mode appears sustained divergent oscillation, and the power response also has obvious unstable fluctuations, indicating that the system is dynamically unstable; while in the direct parallel mode, although the system also appears short-term oscillation disturbance, it presents an asymptotic convergence stable trend overall. This phenomenon is consistent with the frequency-domain analysis result. Figure 1
[0018] The above results also show that the dynamic migration of the operating point significantly affects the system stability, and the method of drawing Nyquist curves point by point is not only inefficient, but also difficult to comprehensively cover all operating conditions. In addition, the traditional Nyquist stability criterion is applicable to the case where the grid strength is fixed, and it is difficult to depict the system stability under the change of two variables (frequency and grid strength). Therefore, the present application proposes a converter stability region criterion based on amplitude-phase contour lines, which comprehensively analyzes the stability boundary under the migration of the operating point by means of the distribution law of the contour lines on the plane.
[0019] In the single-variable case (fixed ), the stability of the loop gain can be judged by the Nyquist criterion. The sufficient and necessary condition for stability is: (20) Where Z is the number of closed-loop poles in the right half plane (RHP), P is the number of open-loop poles in the RHP, and N is Depend on Change to hour Counterclockwise around the point The net number of circles, and Respectively Counterclockwise and clockwise orbit points The open-loop transfer function Surround Point There are four situations, such as Figure 3 (a) In which, cases 1 and 2 are clockwise, and cases 3 and 4 are counterclockwise.
[0020] The Nyquist curve can be mapped to the amplitude-frequency plane and the phase-frequency plane, such as Figure 3 (b) is shown. The mapping relationship is as follows: (twenty one) in, and They are Observe the four typical surround situations and find that There is a mapping relationship between the Bode diagram and the Nyquist diagram as shown in Table 2. For Case 1 and Case 2, the clockwise rotation in the Nyquist plane is equivalent to Frequency region ( Figure 3 (b) The shaded area Crossing with a negative slope ( is an odd number). Similarly, for Cases 3 and 4, the counterclockwise rotation in the Nyquist plane is equivalent to Frequency region ( Figure 3 (b) The shaded area Crossing with a positive slope .
[0021] When considering When changes occur, the mapping relationship shown in formula (21) needs to be expanded into a two-variable function: (twenty two) Amplitude contours and phase contours Drawn on In the plane, such as Figure 3 (c) In the figure, the solid arrow indicates the direction of phase increase, which is point to .
[0022] For any specified , make a line through the point and with Axis-parallel directed auxiliary lines , whose direction is frequency Increase the direction. Through the auxiliary line The direction of crossing the red line defines the crossing type: (1) Crossing in the same direction: Auxiliary lines at the crossing point The direction is consistent with the phase increase direction, such as Figure 3 (c) as shown in cases 3 and 4; (2) Reverse crossing: Auxiliary line at the crossing point The direction is opposite to the phase increase direction, such as Figure 3 (c) is shown in cases 1 and 2.
[0023] Therefore, the number of turns can be determined by Auxiliary lines within the range Crossing The number of isolines is determined. The number of same-direction crossings and reverse-direction crossings are and , then the necessary and sufficient conditions for stability shown in formula (20) can be equivalently expressed as: (twenty three) Table 2 compares Figure 3 The morphological characteristics of Nyquist diagrams, Bode diagrams and amplitude-phase contour diagrams in different situations. It should be noted that the stability criterion based on amplitude and phase contours proposed in the present invention is the stability criterion of Nyquist criterion in The proposed method is a strict mapping within the plane, rather than a simple extension of the Bode plot to the three-dimensional region. Existing methods for stability analysis using Bode plots only consider the phase relationship at each crossover frequency, while ignoring the amplitude and phase derivatives. Therefore, the correct analysis results are only obtained for cases 2 or 3.
[0024] Table 2 Mapping relationship between Nyquist plot and amplitude-phase contour plot .
[0025] From the above, we can see that, focusing on the problem of converter operating point migration caused by grid impedance changes, an overall model of the converter grid-connected system including grid-side impedance is established. On this basis, a method for determining the converter stability domain based on amplitude-phase contours is proposed. This method can characterize the system stability boundary under dynamic changes in grid strength, making up for the limitations of the traditional Nyquist criterion in multivariable analysis. Furthermore, the stability boundary of the converter grid-connected system under two operating modes is quantitatively analyzed, and then the critical conditions for the subsequent dual-mode switching of the converter can be clarified, providing a theoretical basis for the design of the dual-mode switching strategy. Based on this,Figure 4 As shown, the application provides a converter stability domain determination method based on amplitude-phase contour lines, which specifically comprises the following four steps.
[0026] Step S1, draw a Nyquist curve based on the loop gain transfer function of the converter, and map the Nyquist curve to the amplitude-frequency plane and the phase-frequency plane.
[0027] Impedance / admittance method stability analysis usually needs to be based on a specific steady-state operating point. However, under the influence of high proportion of renewable energy access and high load uncertainty, the grid strength shows obvious time-varying characteristics, making it difficult for the converter grid-connected system to maintain a constant steady-state operating point. Therefore, the analytical mapping relationship between the grid strength and the system operating point is established, and the system modeling and stability analysis containing the operating point dynamic migration effect are carried out accordingly.
[0028] The converter in the application can be a GCI using Si-based power devices or new wide bandgap devices, or a HSFI using Si IGBT and SiC MOSFET hybrid frequency inverters. In the embodiment, when the converter is a HSFI, the loop gain transfer function of the HSFI is determined by the following method: Step S101, determine the analytical function relationship between the system operating point variable and the grid strength by using the short circuit ratio to represent the grid strength.
[0029] The grid strength is measured by the short circuit ratio (SCR), which is defined as the ratio of the AC side short circuit capacity P N to the rated capacity of the device P , denoted as . Considering a purely inductive grid line, the SCR is expressed as: (24) (25) where is the fundamental angular frequency of the grid; is the line inductance; U N is the rated voltage.
[0030] In a typical renewable energy grid-connected scenario, the inverter usually adopts the maximum power point tracking and voltage-oriented control strategy based on the phase-locked loop. Therefore, the PCC voltage U o and the output current I o only contain the active components U od and I od at steady state. Based on the power relationship, the grid voltage U g is expressed as a function of the PCC voltage and the output current: (26) where, is the AC grid line impedance.
[0031] In the time scale of current loop, the grid voltage amplitude U gm is considered as a constant, i.e., o (27) (28) where, is the steady-state value of grid voltage d-axis component; is the steady-state value of grid voltage q-axis component; By combining equations (26)-(28) and substituting into the SCR definition, the analytical function relationship between HSFI operating point variables and grid strength is obtained: (29) Figure 5 shows the migration trajectory of HSFI system steady-state operating point when the grid strength changes. As can be seen from the figure, as the grid strength increases (i.e. increases), increases, while decreases. This operating point migration effect poses a challenge to system stability and must be considered in dynamic modeling.
[0032] Step S102, according to the output impedance of the HSFI body and the equivalent impedance of the AC grid, the equivalent output current of the system and its complex conjugate expression are determined.
[0033] S1021, the output impedance of the HSFI body is determined.
[0034] 1) Determine the current control strategy of HSFI As shown in Figure 16 , the HSFI is composed of Si-based main variable current unit (Main Unit, MU) and SiC-based sub variable current unit (Sub Unit, SU), and the two are connected in parallel through inductance filters L1 and L2 to the point of common coupling (Point of Common Coupling, PCC). The total output current of the system is composed of the output current of MU and SU respectively and , that is .
[0035] According to the different control modes of MU and SU, HSFI has two typical operation modes: harmonic compensation mode and direct parallel mode. In practical application, the grid impedance is significantly fluctuated by many factors such as fault and grid-connected capacity, which leads to the significant change of grid strength in different scenarios. In order to enhance the grid adaptability of HSFI system, the application proposes to adopt direct parallel mode when the system is in weak grid, to suppress the influence of grid disturbance on system stability by reducing the coupling of control loop, and the basic principle of direct parallel mode is the same as that of traditional GCI, and MU and SU run independently in peer-to-peer structure. When the system is in strong grid, harmonic compensation mode is adopted to give full play to the advantages of HSFI in power quality and efficiency, and the core idea of harmonic compensation mode is to integrate the low cost and high current carrying capacity of Si device and the high frequency and high precision control ability of SiC device, to realize the collaborative optimization of system efficiency and power quality. Specifically: MU is used to bear the main load power: MU adopts Si IGBT device with low cost and high current carrying capacity, and bears most of the active power in the system. In order to reduce switching loss, it works at a low switching frequency; SU is used to improve the output current quality: SU adopts SiC MOSFET device with excellent switching characteristics, which is mainly used to compensate the low-frequency harmonic components introduced by MU in real time, so as to improve the total harmonic distortion performance of the output current. Since SU only bears a small amount of power, high-frequency operation has limited impact on the overall efficiency and cost of the system.
[0036] The above control mode not only improves the stable operation ability of the system in complex grid environment, but also builds a flexible control framework suitable for various scenarios.
[0037] The control target of HSFI system is to make the total output current accurately track its reference value , that is . In order to achieve this goal, HSFI adopts different control strategies in two operation modes, and the control structure is shown in Figure 6 . Among them, the alternating current grid is represented by the Thevenin equivalent circuit composed of voltage source and Z g in series; the output voltages of MU and SU are and .
[0038] In order to unify subsequent modeling and analysis, the power distribution ratio between MU and SU is defined as : (30) wherein and are and reference value.
[0039] Current control process in harmonic supplement mode: In harmonic compensation mode, MU operates at a low switching frequency and its output current After filtering out the high-frequency components by the filter inductor L1, the main components are the fundamental components. and low-frequency harmonic components To ensure the waveform quality of the system output current, SU needs to dynamically compensate for the harmonics introduced by MU. Its output current is expressed as: (31) Among them, the fundamental component Used to correct fundamental tracking error and harmonic components It is used to compensate for the harmonic current caused by MU. Therefore, the control objectives of MU and SU are expressed as: (32) The corresponding control structure is as follows Figure 6 (a) shows: acquisition system Perform phase-locked control to obtain the voltage phase angle , set the system output current reference value , collect the output current of MU ; Calculate the current reference value of MU according to formula (32) ;Compare and And send it to the current controller CC1 of MU for PI control to obtain the internal potential reference value of MU ;Will After PWM processing, a pulse signal is generated to drive the MU switch tube to operate. The total output current of the acquisition system ; Calculate the current reference value of SU according to formula (32) ;Compare and And send it to the SU current controller CC2 for PI control to obtain the internal potential reference value of SU ;Will After PWM processing, a pulse signal is generated to drive the SU switch tube to operate.
[0040] Current control process in direct parallel mode: When the system operates in direct parallel mode, MU and SU operate independently in a peer-to-peer structure, each bearing a certain proportion of the total output current. At this time, SU and MU each track their reference values to meet: (33) Since SU is no longer responsible for harmonic compensation, in order to ensure the power quality of the system output current, the switching frequency of MU needs to be appropriately increased to compensate for the decline in harmonic suppression capability. The corresponding control structure is as follows Figure 6 (b) shows: acquisition system Perform phase-locked control to obtain the voltage phase angle , set the system output current reference value , collect the output current of MU ; Calculate the current reference value of MU according to formula (33) ;Compare and And send it to the current controller CC1 of MU for PI control to obtain the internal potential reference value of MU ;Will After PWM processing, a pulse signal is generated to drive the MU switch. The output current of SU is collected. ; Calculate the current reference value of SU according to formula (33) ;Compare and And send it to the SU current controller CC2 for PI control to obtain the internal potential reference value of SU ;Will After PWM processing, a pulse signal is generated to drive the SU switch tube to operate.
[0041] 2) Based on the system's current control process, a small signal model of the HSFI system in harmonic compensation mode is constructed to determine the overall frequency domain characteristics of the system in this mode.
[0042] 1. Coordinate Description Due to the dynamic characteristics of the phase-locked loop (PLL), the system involves two different dq rotating coordinate systems: the system coordinate system (denoted by the superscript "s") defined by the grid voltage, and the controller coordinate system (denoted by the superscript "c") defined by the phase synchronization control algorithm. The following relationship exists between small perturbations of any physical quantity in these two coordinate systems: (34) in, and are the small disturbance variables in the controller coordinate system and the system coordinate system, respectively, Represents phase synchronization dynamics. Consider a typical synchronous rotating reference frame PLL (Synchronous Reference Frame PLL, SRF-PLL), It is given by: (35) Among them, X0 is the steady-state value of the corresponding physical quantity, is the dynamic response of the phase-locked loop output phase angle to voltage disturbance: (36) in, is the small disturbance of the grid-connected point voltage, for The conjugate of ; s is the differential operator, , is the response frequency; is the d-axis component of the steady-state value of the grid voltage.
[0043] 2. Power circuit dynamics Both MU and SU use L-type filters, with inductance values of L1 and L2 and parasitic resistance values of R1 and R2 respectively. In the system coordinate system, the voltage disturbance on the filter is and Expressed as: (37) in, and is the filter impedance, is the system base frequency.
[0044] 3. Controller dynamics In order to achieve the current control target described in Equation (32), the current controllers (CC1 and CC2) of MU and SU both adopt PI control in the dq coordinate system, and their small disturbance response relationship is as follows: (38) Where, and are small disturbances of the modulation signals of MU and SU respectively, and is a PI controller, and is the voltage feed-forward coefficient.
[0045] 4. Full system impedance model The modulation signals m1 and m2 are modulated by PWM to drive the inverter switching action. Considering the delay caused by digital control and PWM, the relationship between the modulation signal and the inverter output voltage is expressed as: (39) Among them, G d1 , G d2 is the delay link. For symmetrical regular modulation, the duration from sampling to update is one carrier cycle; the zero-order hold effect keeps the updated duty cycle constant, close to half the carrier cycle. Therefore, the total delay value is usually considered to be 1.5 carrier cycles, that is: (40) where T s1 and T s2 are the carrier periods of MU and SU, respectively.
[0046] Based on the above modeling, the overall small-signal impedance model of HSFI in the harmonic compensation mode is constructed, as shown in FIG. 3. According to the connection relationship between the modules in the figure, the small perturbation of the output current of MU and SU is represented as: Figure 7 (41) (42) (6) (8) (9) where, is the small perturbation of the system output current; and are the small perturbations of the output currents of MU and SU, respectively; is the small perturbation of the reference value of the system output current; is the small perturbation of the grid-connected point voltage; is the conjugate of ; is the PI parameter of the current controller of MU; is the delay value of MU; is the voltage feed-forward coefficient of MU; is the system fundamental frequency; is the filter inductance of MU; is the transfer function of the phase-locked loop; is the steady-state value of the output current of MU; is the steady-state value of the grid-connected point voltage; is the steady-state value of the output voltage of MU; is the filter impedance of MU; is the PI parameter of the current controller of SU; is the delay value of SU; is the voltage feed-forward coefficient of SU; is the filter inductance of SU; is the steady-state value of the output current of SU; is the steady-state value of the output voltage of SU; is the filter impedance of SU.
[0047] It can be seen from equation (42) that the dynamic characteristics of SU are not only related to itself, but also affected by MU. This makes the overall impedance characteristics of HSFI different from traditional multi-inverter parallel system. Substituting equation (41) into equation (42), the small perturbation relationship between voltage and current of SU under the influence of MU is further obtained as: (43) (7) Superimposing equation (41) and equation (43), the overall frequency domain characteristics of HSFI system are obtained as: (4) (5) 3) According to the current control process of the system, the small signal model of HSFI system in direct parallel mode is constructed, and then the overall frequency domain characteristics of the system in this mode are determined.
[0048] In direct parallel mode, MU and SU adopt independent current control strategy, and the dynamic of their controllers is: (44) On this basis, the complex vector impedance models of MU and SU are respectively represented as: (45) (46) (12) (13) (14) It can be seen from equation (45) and equation (46) that in direct parallel mode, the dynamic characteristics of MU and SU are independent of each other, and there is no significant coupling between the control systems. Therefore, their frequency domain responses are also independent of each other and do not affect each other.

[0058] The second step is to specify Draw auxiliary lines below , determine the intersection of the auxiliary line and the phase contour line. , draw a line through the point and with Axis-parallel auxiliary lines ,like Figure 9 . It can be seen that in Within the range, auxiliary line and The contour lines have no intersection. Therefore, it can be concluded that the Nyquist curve surrounds the point Number of laps and are all 0, the system is stable under this grid strength. Similarly, for any , past a point Auxiliary lines and The contour lines intersect at At the intersection point B, the auxiliary line The same direction as the phase increase direction.

Phase contours and The amplitude contours intersect at A(−138, 0.9), B(−108, 0.0), C(85, 0.8), D(325, 0.9), and E(315, 0.8). These intersections divide the SCR into three intervals: [0, 0.8), [0.8, 0.9), and [0,9, +∞). In these intervals, Auxiliary lines in the frequency region Crossing The net number of isolines is 1, 2, and 0 respectively. Therefore, the system stability threshold is K SCR =0.9.
[0061] Example 3 Figure 11 The stable domain amplitude and phase characteristics of a HSFI in direct parallel mode are shown. Phase contours and The amplitude contour lines intersect only at A(50, 0.6). This intersection divides the SCR into two intervals [0, 0.6) and [0.6, +∞).
