Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to a control method of a grid-connected doubly-fed wind turbine, belonging to the technical field of motor control. BACKGROUND

[0002] Doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) has been widely used in renewable energy field such as wind power generation due to its small power converter capacity and the ability to realize variable speed constant frequency operation. Traditional DFIG control usually adopts vector control strategy based on stator flux linkage orientation or stator voltage orientation to control the grid-side converter and the rotor-side converter respectively, so as to realize decoupling control of active power and reactive power and stability of DC bus voltage.

[0003] With the increasing penetration of power electronic devices in power systems, the traditional mode of relying on synchronous generators to provide system inertia and damping is challenged. Grid-forming control technology emerges as the times require, and one of the widely used grid-forming control methods is virtual synchronous generator (VSG) control. It simulates the operating characteristics of synchronous generators (such as swing equation, speed regulation and voltage regulation characteristics), so that power electronic converters can provide inertia support, damping and primary frequency and voltage regulation capability for the grid, enhancing the stability of the grid. Applying VSG technology to DFIG systems is an important direction to improve the grid-friendliness of wind farms. However, the stability of grid-connected doubly-fed wind turbines is challenged during operation, especially when the grid is disturbed (such as voltage sag, phase jump, etc.). The outer ring of VSG control simulates the slow dynamic characteristics of synchronous generators, while the inner ring of the traditional rotor-side converter usually adopts a fast-responding proportional-integral (PI) current controller. This coupling of fast and slow dynamics, as well as the virtual inertia introduced by VSG control, can cause the current inner ring of the rotor-side converter to be difficult to quickly and accurately track the instructions when the grid phase jumps rapidly, resulting in a large current error or even overcurrent, and further causing system oscillation or loss of step, i.e. there is a risk of phase jump instability. The parameter setting of the traditional PI current controller is difficult to balance steady-state accuracy and dynamic response under wide range of operating conditions, and has limited robustness under strong disturbance, making it difficult to effectively suppress such instability phenomena.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and 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.

[0055] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0056] The application will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but not as a limitation of the application.

[0057] The embodiment proposes a control strategy of applying a virtual oscillator to a grid-connected double-fed wind turbine, which is a method of replacing a traditional PI controller current inner loop with a virtual oscillator as a rotor-side converter current control inner loop. The core idea is to replace the traditional PI controller current inner loop with the dynamic characteristics of the virtual oscillator, so as to obtain better stability and dynamic performance under grid phase jump and other disturbances.

[0058] The overall structure of the VSG-DFIG system in the embodiment is shown in Figure 1 The system mainly includes a double-fed induction generator (DFIG), a grid-side converter, a rotor-side converter, a DC bus capacitor, a connection transformer and a grid connection point. The grid-side converter adopts traditional vector control, which is responsible for maintaining the stability of the DC bus voltage and controlling the grid-side reactive power. The control method of the grid-connected double-fed wind turbine in the embodiment includes controlling the rotor-side converter and the grid-side converter. Since the capacity of the grid-side converter is small, the characteristics of the DFIG unit are mainly reflected through the rotor-side converter, so the core of the embodiment lies in the control strategy of the rotor-side converter.

[0059] The control principle diagram of the grid-side converter in the embodiment is shown in Figure 2 The grid-side converter adopts traditional vector control, which is usually implemented in a rotating d-q coordinate system synchronized with the grid voltage. The synchronization signal is provided by a phase-locked loop (PLL) for obtaining the phase and frequency information of the grid voltage. The control structure includes cascaded control links: the outer ring is a DC bus voltage control loop, which compares the measured DC voltage value with the given value through a PI controller, outputs the d-axis current given value, and controls the active power flowing through the grid-side converter, so as to stabilize the DC voltage. The inner ring is a grid-side current control loop, which includes two PI controllers, respectively responsible for quickly tracking the d-axis and q-axis current given values given by the outer ring, and outputs the d-axis and q-axis voltage reference signals. In order to improve the dynamic performance and realize d-q axis decoupling, the inner ring also includes a current cross-decoupling term. The final d-q axis voltage reference signals are converted to abc three-phase coordinate system through inverse Park transformation, which is used to generate the pulse width modulation (PWM) driving signal of the grid-side converter, and control the switching action of the grid-side converter.

[0060] The control method of the rotor-side converter in the embodiment is shown in Figure 3 The control method of the rotor-side converter in the embodiment is shown in Figure 3 The VSG control outer ring simulates the operating characteristics of a synchronous generator. The inputs are the active power given value Pref and the reactive power given value Qref, as well as the actual active power P and the reactive power Q obtained by real-time acquisition and calculation through the sensor.

[0067] On this basis, the VSG power angle is obtained:

[0068]

[0072] Step 2, according to the power angle and the internal potential amplitude E, the given value of the d-axis rotor voltage and the q-axis rotor voltage , is obtained, , The input voltage control link generates d, q axis rotor current given values , ;

[0073] The calculated power angle δ and internal potential amplitude E constitute the internal state of the virtual synchronous generator. This state (usually represented as a phasor ) is converted into stator voltage given values in the d-q rotating coordinate system , . This step includes a voltage PI control link, the input of which is the difference between the stator voltage given values and actual values, and the output is the rotor current given values. The difference between the rotor current given values and actual values is converted into the α-β coordinate system and used as the input signal of the virtual oscillator control inner loop.

[0074] Step 3, the difference between , and the rotor current actual value is converted into the α-β coordinate system through coordinate transformation, and the voltage feedback signals u α , u β are generated through gain. The voltage feedback signals u α , u β are used as the input signals of the virtual oscillator control inner loop, the virtual capacitor voltage and the virtual inductor current are used as the internal state variables of the virtual oscillator control inner loop, and the voltage reference signals v α , v β in the α-β coordinate system are generated based on the virtual capacitor voltage and the virtual inductor current through voltage gain scaling; and the voltage reference signals v α , v β are input to the pulse width modulation module after coordinate transformation, so as to drive the rotor side converter.

[0075] The control principle diagram of the virtual oscillator control inner loop of the rotor side converter of the embodiment is shown in Figure 4 , and the control inner loop is responsible for accurately and quickly tracking the rotor current instruction given by the VSG outer loop.

[0076] Specifically, the virtual oscillator control inner loop receives the specified α, β axis rotor current error components; based on the rotor current error components, the voltage feedback signals u α , u β are generated through a processing link containing current gain. Specifically, the rotor current error signal is subjected to current gain to obtain the voltage feedback signals u α , u β :

The selection principle is to coordinate with the parameters of the virtual oscillator to achieve accurate current tracking and stable grid-connected operation. Voltage feedback signal u α u β The aim is to inject current error information into the oscillator dynamics, driving the oscillator output adjustment to reduce the error.

[0080] Then, run the virtual oscillator core module, which uses virtual capacitor voltage. and virtual inductor current As its internal state variable, its dynamic evolution is determined by the voltage feedback signal u. α , u β The system of differential equations describes this;

[0086]

[0087]

[0088] These equations model a resonant circuit, the non-linear voltage source and the non-linear current source ensure that the oscillator is able to generate a stable limit cycle oscillation, whose amplitude and frequency are determined by the design parameters L, C, ζ, k, the voltage feedback signal u α and u β directly act on these two differential equations, adjusting the behavior of the virtual oscillator.

[0089] The output variables of the virtual oscillator are the virtual capacitor voltage v C and the virtual inductor current i L The product of v

[0091]

[0092] After αβ-abc transformation, the three-phase rotor voltage reference signal u rabc is obtained, which is sent to the PWM generator to generate the gate drive signal of the power electronic switch (such as IGBT) in the rotor-side converter, so as to control the rotor-side converter to output the expected voltage, and further adjust the rotor current to track the given value.

[0093] The selection principle of the oscillator design parameters in this embodiment is to: aim to ensure that the oscillator can generate a stable limit cycle oscillation at the expected frequency and amplitude, meet the system dynamic response requirements including power conversion time and voltage rise time, and ensure the stability of the entire control system.

[0094] The selection principle of the virtual capacitor value C and the virtual inductor value L is:

[0095] The selection of the virtual capacitor value C needs to meet the constraint conditions based on the minimum rotor voltage V min , the maximum allowable deviation e, the rated power S and the maximum power conversion time T trans , whose value range is defined by the following formula:

[0096]

[0097] The selection of the virtual inductor value L is combined with the selected virtual capacitor value C to match the natural resonant frequency of the virtual oscillator with the nominal angular frequency ω n of the power grid, whose value is defined by the following formula:

[0098]

[0099] In this embodiment, the selection principle of the convergence speed parameter ζ is to meet the constraint conditions based on the nominal oscillation amplitude A and the maximum voltage rise time t rminimum convergence speed requirement;

[0100] The implementation can be realized by a controller containing a microprocessor (such as a DSP or FPGA), a sensor (for measuring voltage, current), a memory (storing programs and data), and an interface circuit. The controller executes the calculation logic of the above-mentioned VSG outer loop and virtual oscillator control inner loop, and interacts with the hardware such as the converter and sensor of the DFIG system.

[0101] Figure 5 For the active power waveform of the VSG-DFIG unit using the current inner loop when the grid phase jumps, it can be seen that the system cannot well cope with the phase jump fault at this time, and the system is unstable.

[0102] Figure 6 For the active power waveform of the VSG-DFIG unit using the virtual oscillator as the inner loop current controller of the rotor-side converter when the grid phase jumps, it can be seen that the system can better re-synchronize with the grid when a fault occurs, and realize transient fault ride-through.

[0103] In summary, the virtual oscillator of the present embodiment is used as the inner loop current controller of the rotor-side converter of the VSG-DFIG, replacing the traditional PI controller, and its unique dynamic characteristics and synchronization capability are expected to improve the stability margin and dynamic performance of the system under grid phase jump and other disturbances.
