[0002] The traditional method for suppressing overvoltage after transient operation of a modular multilevel converter is to limit the power recovery speed when networking and limit the energy consumption resistor exit speed when islanding, which is not conducive to the rapid recovery of power after transient operation. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a simple and effective method and device for suppressing overvoltage after transient operation without affecting power recovery, to meet the operation needs of the modular multilevel converter. SUMMARY

[0003] The application develops a MMC post-transient operation overvoltage suppression method, aiming to realize the suppression of AC and DC overvoltage after transient operation of a modular multilevel converter, and meet the operation needs of the modular multilevel converter.

[0004] Technical scheme: The embodiment of the application provides a MMC post-transient operation overvoltage suppression method, applied to a system composed of a modular multilevel converter (MMC), the system comprising an MMC, a converter control module and a valve control module, the MMC comprising a plurality of sub-modules, the suppression method running in the converter control module, and the suppression method comprising the following steps:

[0005] obtaining a real-time value of an average voltage of the sub-modules of the MMC and a sub-module voltage calculation value used by the valve control module to calculate the number of sub-modules;

[0006] determining a preset additional coefficient based on the real-time value of the average voltage of the sub-modules and the sub-module voltage calculation value;

[0007] determining an overvoltage active suppression strategy based on the preset additional coefficient, an AC reference wave and a DC bias of the MMC;

[0008] when the real-time value of the average voltage of the sub-modules of the MMC is greater than a preset threshold, the overvoltage active suppression strategy is put into operation for overvoltage suppression.

[0009] In some embodiments, the real-time value of the average voltage of the sub-modules is obtained, comprising:

[0010] the valve control module obtains the sum of the real-time values of the voltages of all normally operating sub-modules in the MMC, and determines the quotient of the sum of the real-time values of the voltages of all normally operating sub-modules in the MMC and the number of all normally operating sub-modules in the MMC as the real-time value of the average voltage of the sub-modules.

[0011] In some embodiments, when the valve control module calculates the number of conducting submodules using a fixed rated voltage, obtaining the calculated voltage value of the submodule includes:

[0012] The fixed rated voltage of the valve control module is determined as the calculated voltage value of the submodule.

[0013] When the valve control module uses a variable rated voltage to calculate the number of conducting submodules, it obtains the calculated voltage value of the submodule, including:

[0015] In some embodiments, the preset additional coefficients include a preset AC reference waveform coefficient and a preset DC bias coefficient. The preset AC reference waveform coefficient is the result obtained by dividing the calculated value of the submodule voltage by the real-time value of the average voltage of the submodule. The preset DC bias coefficient is the result obtained by dividing the calculated value of the submodule voltage by the minimum value among the real-time value of the average voltage of the submodule, the margin coefficient, and the overvoltage limit value of the real-time value of the average voltage of the submodule of the MMC.

[0018] Depending on the overvoltage suppression requirements, one can choose to multiply only the preset AC reference waveform coefficient with the AC reference waveform of the MMC; or choose to multiply the preset AC reference waveform coefficient with the AC reference waveform of the MMC, and simultaneously multiply the preset DC bias coefficient with the DC bias of the MMC, to obtain the active overvoltage suppression strategy.

[0019] Accordingly, the overvoltage suppression device after transient operation of an MMC described in this application embodiment is applied to a system composed of a modular multilevel converter (MMC). The system includes an MMC, a converter control module, and a valve control module. The MMC includes several sub-modules. The suppression device operates within the converter control module.

[0023] The judgment unit is used to determine the relationship between the real-time value of the average voltage of the submodule and a preset threshold, and to determine whether to activate the overvoltage active suppression strategy to suppress overvoltage when the real-time value of the average voltage of the submodule is greater than the preset threshold.

[0024] In some embodiments, obtaining the real-time value of the average voltage of the submodule includes:

[0025] The valve control unit calculates the sum of the real-time voltage values ​​of all normally functioning sub-modules in the MMC, and then uses the quotient of the sum of the real-time voltage values ​​of all normally functioning sub-modules in the MMC and the number of normally functioning sub-modules in the MMC to obtain the real-time average voltage value of the sub-module.

[0026] In some embodiments, when the valve control unit calculates the number of conducting submodules using a fixed rated voltage, obtaining the calculated voltage value of the submodule includes:

[0027] The fixed rated voltage of the valve control unit is determined as the calculated voltage value of the submodule.

[0028] In some embodiments, when the valve control unit uses a variable rated voltage to calculate the number of conducting submodules, obtaining the calculated voltage value of the submodule includes:

[0029] Based on the number of faulty submodules in the bridge arm with the most faults collected by the acquisition unit, the variable rated voltage of the valve control unit is dynamically adjusted, and the dynamically adjusted variable rated voltage of the valve control unit is determined as the calculated voltage value of the submodule.

[0030] Accordingly, an electronic device according to an embodiment of this application includes a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor. When the processor executes the computer program, it implements the steps of the overvoltage suppression method after MMC transient operation as described above.

[0040] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0041] It should be understood that although the terms first, second, etc., may be used herein to describe various components, these components should not be limited by these terms. These terms are used to distinguish one component from another. Therefore, the first component discussed below may be referred to as the second component without departing from the teachings of this application. As used herein, the term "and / or" includes all combinations of any and more of the associated listed items.

[0042] Those skilled in the art will understand that the accompanying drawings are merely schematic diagrams of exemplary embodiments and may not be to scale. The modules or processes shown in the drawings are not necessarily essential for implementing this application and therefore should not be used to limit the scope of protection of this application.

[0043] A Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) is composed of multiple cascaded sub-modules (SMs) with identical structures. The sub-modules can be categorized into three types: half-H-bridge, full-H-bridge, and double-clamped. By employing a modular design and nearest-level modulation (NLM), the MMC reduces harmonic content and switching losses, and is widely used in high-voltage direct current transmission, static var compensators (SVCs), DC-connected energy storage, and low-frequency power transmission.

[0044] Transient operation refers to the instantaneous response and dynamic behavior of a power system when sudden events, faults, or changes occur. These events include short-circuit faults, valve group activation / deactivation, switch operations, load changes, generator starting or shutdown, etc. During transient operation, parameters such as system voltage, current, and power may undergo instantaneous changes.

[0045] Traditional methods for suppressing overvoltage after transient operation of modular multilevel converters (MMCs) involve limiting the power recovery speed when connected to the grid and limiting the disconnection speed of energy-consuming resistors when isolated. These methods are not conducive to rapid power recovery after transient operation. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a simple and effective method and device to suppress overvoltage after transient operation without affecting power recovery, so as to meet the operational requirements of MMCs.

[0046] In view of this, this application provides an overvoltage suppression method after transient operation of an MMC, which is applied to a system composed of a modular multilevel converter (MMC). The method multiplies the AC reference wave and DC bias of the MMC by a preset coefficient, thereby suppressing the AC and DC overvoltages after transient operation of the MMC and ensuring the stable operation of the MMC, thus solving at least part of the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0048] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 This illustration shows the overall flow of the overvoltage suppression method after transient operation of MMC according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 The illustration shows the specific flow of the overvoltage suppression method after transient operation of the MMC according to an embodiment of this application. The system composed of a modular multilevel converter (MMC) includes the MMC, a converter control module, and a valve control module. The MMC includes several sub-modules. The suppression method operates in the converter control module. The overvoltage suppression method after transient operation of the MMC includes the following steps:

[0049] Step 101: Obtain the real-time value of the average voltage Uv of the MMC submodule. avg The valve control module is used to calculate the submodule voltage Uv value for determining the number of submodules. avgcal .

[0050] Among them, the submodule voltage calculation value Uv avgcal It is obtained from the valve control module by the converter control module.

[0051] In some embodiments, the real-time value Uv of the average voltage of the MMC submodules is obtained through the valve control module. avg The specific methods are as follows:

[0052] The valve control module obtains the sum of the real-time voltage values ​​Uv of all normally functioning sub-modules of the MMC. SUM And sum the real-time voltage values ​​Uv of all normally functioning submodules in the MMC. SUM The number N of all normally functioning submodules in MMC v The quotient is determined as the real-time value of the average voltage of the MMC submodules, i.e.

[0053]

[0054] In some embodiments, the calculated submodule voltage value Uv can be obtained through method b1.avgcal :

[0055] Based on the valve control module using a fixed rated voltage Uv avgN Calculate the number of sub-modules to be deployed in the bridge arm. Method b1 involves setting the fixed rated voltage Uv of the valve control module. avgN The calculated voltage value Uv for the submodule was determined. avgcal That is, UV. avgcal =Uv avgN .

[0056] In some embodiments, the calculated submodule voltage value Uv can be obtained through method b2. avgcal :

[0057] Based on the valve control module, a variable rated voltage Uv is used. avgNC Calculate the number of submodules deployed in the bridge arm. Method b2 is based on the number of faulty submodules Ns in the bridge arm with the most faulty submodules in the MMC. m_bad The variable rated voltage Uv of the dynamic adjustment valve control module avgNC The dynamically adjusted UV avgNC The calculated voltage value Uv for the submodule is determined. avgcal .

[0058] Among them, UV avgcal satisfy U dcN For the modular multilevel converter, the DC rated voltage is N. sm This represents the total number of submodules in a single bridge arm.

[0059] Step 102: Based on the real-time value Uv of the submodule average voltage avg Calculated voltage value Uv of sub-module avgcal Determine the preset additional coefficient.

[0060] Specifically, the preset additional coefficients include the preset AC reference wave coefficient k. Mac and preset DC bias coefficient k Mdc Preset AC reference wave coefficient k Mac The calculated voltage value Uv for the submodule avgcal Divide by the real-time value of the average voltage of the submodule, Uv avg The result obtained is Preset DC bias coefficient k Mdc The calculated voltage value Uv for the submodule avgcal Divide by the real-time value of the average voltage of the submodule, Uv avg Margin coefficient k u The overvoltage limit Uv of the real-time average voltage of the submodule over The result obtained by finding the minimum value among the three is...

[0061]

[0062] Wherein, the margin coefficient k u Satisfying k u ≤1. Overvoltage limit Uv of the real-time average voltage of the submodule. over It can be determined based on AC overvoltage limits and DC overvoltage limits.

[0063] Step 103: Determine the active overvoltage suppression strategy based on the preset additional coefficients, the AC reference waveform of MMC, and the DC bias.

[0064] Among them, such as Figure 3 As shown, the AC reference wave of the MMC is the AC reference wave U output by the modular multilevel conventional control strategy. ref The DC bias of the MMC is a modular multi-level conventional control strategy that outputs DC bias U. dvbia .

[0065] In some embodiments, an active overvoltage suppression strategy can be determined through the following steps:

[0066] Step 1: Calculate the value Uv using the submodule voltage. avgcal Real-time value of average voltage Uv of submodule avg Dynamically adjust the preset AC reference wave coefficient k Mac Calculate the value Uv using the submodule voltage. avgcal Real-time value of average voltage Uv of submodule avg The overvoltage limit Uv of the real-time average voltage of the submodule over Dynamically adjust the preset DC bias coefficient k Mdc ;

[0067] Step 2, preset the AC reference wave coefficient k Mac AC reference wave with MMC (i.e., U) ref Multiplying these together yields the active overvoltage suppression strategy.

[0068] In some embodiments, an active overvoltage suppression strategy can be determined through the following steps:

[0069] Step 1: Calculate the value Uv using the submodule voltage. avgcal Real-time value of average voltage Uv of submodule avg Dynamically adjust the preset AC reference wave coefficient k Mac Calculate the value Uv using the submodule voltage. avgcal Real-time value of average voltage Uv of submodule avg The overvoltage limit Uv of the real-time average voltage of the submodule over Dynamically adjust the preset DC bias coefficient k Mdc ;

[0070] Step 2, preset the AC reference wave coefficient k Mac AC reference wave with MMC (i.e., U) ref Multiply by the preset DC bias coefficient k Mdc DC bias of MMC (i.e., U) dvbia Multiplying these together yields the active overvoltage suppression strategy.

[0071] Step 104: When the real-time value of the average voltage of the MMC submodules is greater than the preset threshold, the overvoltage active suppression strategy is activated to suppress overvoltage.

[0073] In some embodiments, the method for determining the exit from the active overvoltage suppression strategy is as follows:

That is, the preset AC reference waveform coefficient k... Mac The reference wave (i.e., U) that is not connected to the MMC ref Multiply by the preset DC bias coefficient k Mdc Not with DC bias of MMC (i.e., U) dvbia Multiplying these values ​​together results in the exit of the active overvoltage suppression strategy.

[0075] Among them, the constant value Uv avgtui Less than or equal to a fixed value Uv t .

[0076] It should be noted that the time period can be 0 or a period of less than or equal to 1 ms. When set to less than or equal to 1 ms, the purpose is to prevent the impact of short-term fluctuations in the submodule capacitor voltage. When not 0, it can be set to 1 ms or less than 1 ms, as long as it achieves the anti-jitter effect.

[0077] Specifically, when the real-time value of the average voltage of the submodule is Uv avg Less than the submodule overvoltage danger value Uv avgdan At this time, the preset AC reference wave coefficient does not need to be multiplied with the AC reference wave of the MMC, and the preset DC bias coefficient does not need to be multiplied with the DC bias of the MMC.
