Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of photovoltaic power storage technology, and more specifically to a pulsating bus voltage architecture for a high-energy-consumption production line photovoltaic power storage system. Background Technology
[0002] In high-energy-consuming industrial production lines such as those for electrolytic copper foil production and MnO2 production, high-power electrolytic power supplies are required. Therefore, the industrial three-phase AC power from the grid needs to be converted into DC power by a three-phase multi-pulse thyristor rectifier circuit to supply the loads involved in electrolysis. Meanwhile, with the development of new energy technologies, photovoltaic power generation and energy storage technologies are increasingly used in industry and commerce. The DC power output from photovoltaic arrays and energy storage batteries needs to be converted back into AC power by an inverter before being connected to the grid to supply power to the loads.
[0003] In existing technical solutions, the design architecture of power systems in industries such as industrial electrolysis for copper foil production and MnO2 production after integration with photovoltaic energy storage is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the power system adopts an AC bus architecture. The industrial three-phase power from the grid is stepped down by a transformer (such as an adjustable phase-shifting transformer) and rectified by a rectifier (such as a multi-pulse thyristor rectifier) before being supplied to the electrolytic cell for electrolysis. The DC power from both ends of the photovoltaic array is first controlled by a DC-DC converter using MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) to obtain a constant DC voltage. Then, it is converted to AC power by an inverter and connected to the grid via a grid-connected transformer. It can then be rectified to provide energy for the electrolysis reaction, or rectified to provide energy for the energy storage battery, or surplus power can be fed back to the grid. The energy storage battery can receive power from the grid or the photovoltaic array through rectification, or it can transmit the stored energy to the grid through an inverter, or after inversion and rectification, it can supply the stored energy to the electrolytic cell for electrolysis.
[0004] Existing industrial and commercial power supply systems, after being connected to distributed photovoltaic energy storage, adopt a constant DC bus voltage architecture, such as... Figure 2 As shown. However, in power systems for electrolytic copper foil production and MnO2 production, the high electrolytic current required by the high-energy-consuming electrolytic production lines necessitates the use of multi-pulse thyristor rectification technology. However, this technology results in a multi-pulse pulsating characteristic for the bus voltage, which is forcibly clamped by the three-phase grid voltage, preventing the system from adopting a constant DC bus voltage architecture. This creates a technical bottleneck for the integration of photovoltaic and energy storage power sources. The pressing issue is: how to effectively integrate photovoltaic and energy storage power sources into the power system while the bus voltage is clamped into a pulsating state due to multi-pulse thyristor rectification. Summary of the Invention

[0024] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0025] This invention provides a pulsating bus voltage architecture for a high-energy-consumption production line photovoltaic-storage power system. Compared with existing technologies, it has the following advantages:
[0026] This invention injects a reverse-pulsating current when connecting a power system with a high-energy-consuming production line load to a photovoltaic (PV) energy storage system.

Simultaneously, by injecting a reverse-pulsating current, the original bus requiring a constant DC voltage can be transformed into a bus with pulsating voltage at the connection point. This solution successfully overcomes the technical limitation that PV and energy storage power can only be connected to a constant DC bus, thereby eliminating the need for grid-connected transformers, inverters, and AC transmission lines required for photovoltaic arrays and energy storage batteries, significantly reducing the overall construction cost of the power system.

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0032] This application provides a pulsating bus voltage architecture for a high-energy-consuming production line photovoltaic-storage power system. This solves the technical problem that photovoltaic-storage power supplies cannot be effectively connected to the power system when the bus voltage is clamped into a pulsating state due to multi-pulse thyristor rectification. It enables the injection of reverse pulsating current when the power system of the high-energy-consuming production line load is connected to the photovoltaic-storage system, thereby changing the original AC bus to a bus with a voltage pulsating connection point, breaking through the technical limitation that photovoltaic-storage power supplies can only be connected to a constant DC bus.
[0033] The technical solution in this application is to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, and the general idea is as follows:
[0034] The design architecture of power systems for high-energy-consuming production lines such as industrial electrolytic copper foil production and electrolytic MnO2 production, after being connected to photovoltaic and energy storage, is as follows: Figure 1 As shown. Existing industrial and commercial power supply systems, after being connected to distributed photovoltaic energy storage, adopt a constant DC bus voltage architecture, for example... Figure 2 As shown, the DC bus voltage is stable at 750V.
[0035] The existing technology has the following main drawbacks:
[0036] 1. Adopt Figure 2 In the constant DC bus voltage architecture shown, due to... Figure 1 In the power systems of high-energy-consuming production lines such as electrolytic copper foil production and electrolytic MnO2 production, the bus voltage after rectification by multi-pulse thyristors exhibits multi-pulse pulsation, and this pulsating bus voltage is essentially clamped by the three-phase grid voltage. Therefore, a constant DC bus voltage architecture cannot be adopted. The pressing issue is: how to effectively integrate photovoltaic and energy storage power sources into industrial and commercial power systems, given that the bus voltage is clamped into a pulsating state due to multi-pulse thyristor rectification.
[0037] 2. Existing power systems for high-energy-consuming production lines such as those producing copper foil and MnO2 via photovoltaic (PV) and energy storage systems, after being connected to PV and energy storage, utilize the existing AC bus architecture. The electricity generated by the PV arrays needs to pass through a DC-DC converter (MPPT), inverter, and transformer before being connected to the grid. From the grid, it then undergoes transformation via a phase-shifting adjustable voltage transformer and a multi-pulse thyristor rectifier before reaching the electrolytic cells, the main power load of the factory. Similarly, the electricity generated by the PV arrays also needs to pass through a DC-DC converter (MPPT), inverter, and transformer before being connected to the grid. From the grid, it then undergoes transformation via a transformer and rectifier before being stored in energy storage batteries. The stored energy then needs to be transformed by an inverter and transformer to reach the grid, and from the grid, it undergoes transformation via a phase-shifting adjustable voltage transformer and a multi-pulse thyristor rectifier before reaching the electrolytic cells, the main power load of the factory. In other words, when existing power systems for electrolytic copper foil production and electrolytic MnO2 production are connected to photovoltaic and energy storage systems, the power transmission path between the photovoltaic array, energy storage battery, and electrolytic cell load is too long, and the power undergoes too many transformation stages. The voltage goes through boost and buck stages in sequence, resulting in unnecessary transformations, which leads to increased construction costs, reduced transmission efficiency, and wasted power.
[0038] To address the aforementioned issues, when connecting power systems from high-energy-consuming production lines such as those used for electrolytic copper foil production and MnO2 production to photovoltaic (PV) and energy storage systems, a reverse-pulsating current is injected. This transforms the original AC bus into a bus with pulsating voltage at the connection point, enabling effective integration of PV and energy storage power into industrial and commercial power systems. Furthermore, by injecting a reverse-pulsating current, the bus, which originally required a constant DC voltage connection, can be modified to have a voltage-pulsating connection point. This solution successfully overcomes the technical limitation that PV and energy storage power can only be connected to a constant DC bus, thereby eliminating the need for grid-connected transformers, inverters, and AC transmission lines required for photovoltaic arrays and energy storage batteries, significantly reducing the overall construction cost of the power system.
[0039] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0040] This invention provides a pulsating bus voltage architecture for a high-energy-consumption production line photovoltaic-storage power system, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the pulsating bus voltage architecture includes a high-energy-consuming production line load, a photovoltaic array, an energy storage battery, a three-phase transformer, a multi-pulse thyristor rectifier, a first DC / DC converter, and a second DC / DC converter.
[0041] Among them, the power grid supplies power to the load of the high-energy-consuming production line through a three-phase transformer and a multi-pulse thyristor, and a bus with pulsating voltage is led out from the output terminal of the multi-pulse thyristor.
[0042] The photovoltaic array is connected to the bus via a first DC / DC converter; the first DC / DC converter injects a pulsating current in the opposite direction to the voltage pulsation of the bus.
[0043] The energy storage battery is connected to the bus via a second DC / DC converter, which injects a pulsating current in the opposite direction to the voltage pulsation of the bus.
[0044] It should be noted that, in Figure 3 In the context of high-energy-consuming production lines, electrolytic cells serve as an example. Electrolytic cells can be used to electrolyze copper foil, MnO2, and hydrogen. Other examples of high-energy-consuming production line loads include coal chemical production lines, ceramic production lines, and fertilizer production lines.
[0045] The following is a detailed description of each component in the pulsating bus voltage architecture:
[0046] The three-phase transformer can be an adjustable phase-shifting transformer, and the multi-pulse thyristor rectifier can be a twelve-pulse thyristor rectifier. The first DC / DC converter connected to the photovoltaic array can be a Boost converter that injects reverse pulsating current into the pulsating bus voltage to achieve MPPT and track the pulsating bus voltage. The second DC / DC converter connected to the energy storage battery can be a Boost converter that replaces the traditional Boost diode with a fully controlled switch to inject reverse pulsating current into the pulsating bus voltage to achieve bidirectional flow of energy and track the pulsating bus voltage at the connection point. In specific implementations, the energy storage battery can take various forms such as lithium batteries, fuel cells, and supercapacitors. Furthermore, it should be noted that this pulsating bus voltage architecture is not only applicable to photovoltaic arrays but also suitable for other forms of DC power supplies.
[0047] Meanwhile, the photovoltaic maximum power point tracking strategy for this pulsating bus voltage architecture is as follows:
[0048] High-frequency sampling obtains the photovoltaic array port voltage U pv (k) Port Current I pv (k) Output port voltage of DC / DC converter u dc (k) Output port current i dc (k). Then, the sampled data points are processed using the control frequency of MPPT. U pv (k) and I pv (k) Calculate the average to obtain U pva (k) and I pva (k). After averaging...U pva (k) and I pva (k) Calculate the current output power of the photovoltaic array P pv (k). The current photovoltaic array output power will then be... P pv (k) and the previous time step (k-1) calculated P pv Compare (k-1) and if they are equal, then the maximum expected power value is... P m (k) compared to P m If (k-1) remains constant, then increasing it will affect the expected maximum power value. P m (k) compared to P m (k-1) increase ΔP If it is reduced, the maximum expected power value will be... P m (k) compared to P m (k-1) decreases ΔP ,in ΔP This is the step size for power regulation, a control parameter that can be selected based on actual conditions such as system power and regulation speed. This control parameter can be a constant value or a dynamically changing value. The maximum expected power value at that moment is obtained. P m (k) after, according to i dcR = P m (k) / u dc (k) The reference value for the reverse current that the DC / DC converter needs to inject into the bus can be calculated. i dcR and compared with the actual output port current obtained by high-frequency sampling. i dc (k) Compare to obtain the current error i error (k) can be fed into the output current PI controller to obtain the control duty cycle d of the DC / DC converter as a feedback control quantity, and then the cycle will return to the beginning to perform the next round of sampling and control.
[0049] In summary, compared with existing technologies, it has the following beneficial effects:
[0050] 1. When connecting the power system of a high-energy-consuming production line to the photovoltaic energy storage system, a reverse pulsating current is injected, thereby changing the original AC bus to a bus with voltage pulsation at the connection point, so as to realize the effective connection of the photovoltaic energy storage power supply to the power system of industrial and commercial electricity.
[0051] 2. The electrical energy from photovoltaic arrays and energy storage batteries does not need to go through the original multiple sets of AC transformers, inverters and rectifiers for conversion, and does not go through AC lines for transmission. This reduces the losses in the power conversion and transmission links, improves the efficiency of the power system, and reduces the waste of electrical energy.
