Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of DC power transmission in power systems, and particularly relates to an active support control method and system applicable to offshore wind power DC transmission systems. Background Technology

[0002] The statements in this section are merely background information related to the present invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.

[0003] Offshore wind power, with its advantages of stable wind speed, high utilization hours, small footprint, and environmental friendliness, is gradually becoming a renewable energy source with broad development prospects. In offshore wind power transmission systems, high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission technology is commonly used. However, traditional HVDC technology requires the construction of expensive offshore converter platforms to boost the DC voltage, resulting in high costs and construction difficulties. In contrast, the DC transmission scheme based on the DR-hybrid MMC series topology uses converters with lower costs, smaller offshore converter platforms, easier construction, and significant economic benefits, demonstrating good application potential. Furthermore, the hybrid MMC has overmodulation capability, achieving constant zero DC voltage operation in steady state, meaning it does not handle active power but only provides reactive power compensation to the system, further reducing the rated capacity of the hybrid MMC and lowering costs.

[0004] In offshore wind power transmission systems via a DR-hybrid MMC series topology DC transmission system, the control system plays a crucial role. Because the receiving-end converter station uses an MMC, it has the ability to independently control active and reactive power. When the grid is disturbed, it can provide frequency and voltage support to the system through an effective active support control strategy. In the current grid environment where the penetration rate of new energy sources is constantly increasing, this control method is of great significance for enhancing grid stability. In traditional flexible DC transmission systems, the communication-free active support control strategy is achieved by the receiving-end converter station converting information about changes in the receiving-end grid frequency into changes in the system DC voltage and transmitting this information to the sending-end MMC. Therefore, in a DR-hybrid MMC series topology DC transmission system, it is also possible to not control the DC voltage at the hybrid MMC's ports to be constant, allowing the hybrid MMC to handle changes in the system DC voltage. In this case, most of the increased active power will be transmitted by the hybrid MMC. However, considering the relatively low capacity design of hybrid MMCs, especially when the hybrid MMC operates at zero DC voltage, it is necessary to avoid increasing the active power it transmits. Furthermore, due to the presence of the DR (Diverter), the change in the DC port voltage of the hybrid MMC is not entirely equivalent to the change in the system DC voltage; it is also related to the system DC current, meaning the transmitted receiving-end grid frequency information is inaccurate. In summary, the traditional approach of using hybrid MMCs to transmit receiving-end system frequency information based on DC voltage changes is not suitable for the DR-hybrid MMC series topology. Therefore, researching an active support control strategy suitable for offshore wind power DC transmission systems via the DR-hybrid MMC series topology has significant theoretical value and engineering application prospects.

[0005] Existing technologies have proposed a black-start and coordinated control strategy for a parallel topology of DR and MMC. This coordinated control strategy can control the power output of MMC under wind power variations, effectively avoiding the phenomenon of MMC active power backfeeding. However, it does not mention an active support control strategy. There is also a review of active support technologies for offshore wind power flexible DC transmission systems, summarizing currently proposed active support control strategies for flexible DC transmission systems and classifying them into two categories. One category is a grid-following active support control strategy, where the receiving-end converter station adopts grid-following control, detecting the receiving-end grid frequency information through a phase-locked loop and transmitting this information to the wind farm through DC voltage changes to achieve active support. The other category is a grid-based active support control strategy, where the receiving-end converter station adopts grid-based control. However, this scheme requires an additional DC voltage outer loop, making control complex and parameter tuning difficult. Neither of these strategies can be directly applied to the DR-hybrid MMC series topology.

[0006] In summary, current research on DR-MMC topologies primarily focuses on black-start and steady-state control strategies, while studies on active support control are relatively scarce. Research findings in this area are mainly found in traditional flexible DC transmission systems, constituting a current research gap. Therefore, to improve the applicability and reliability of this topology in practical engineering, it is urgent to design an active support control strategy suitable for DR-hybrid MMC series topology DC transmission systems. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this invention provides an active support control method and system suitable for offshore wind power DC transmission systems, which effectively improves the frequency and voltage support capability of the DR-hybrid MMC series topology DC transmission system for the receiving-end grid, and helps to enhance the stability of the grid in scenarios where a high proportion of new energy sources are connected to the grid.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0011] The voltage amplitude control quantity is obtained by the sending end hybrid MMC controller, and the voltage amplitude control quantity is decoupled from the DC current to obtain the DC voltage of the DC transmission system. The frequency regulation quantity of the wind farm is determined based on the DC voltage of the DC transmission system.

[0012] The frequency change information of the receiving-end AC grid is reconstructed based on the frequency regulation of the wind farm, and the output active power of the wind turbine is adjusted according to the frequency change information of the receiving-end AC grid to achieve frequency support for the receiving-end AC grid.

[0013] Secondly, the present invention provides an active support control system suitable for offshore wind power DC transmission systems, applied to DR-hybrid MMC series topology DC transmission systems, including:

[0014] The receiving-end MMC response module is configured to: when the receiving-end power grid is subjected to frequency disturbance, calculate the DC voltage change value based on the detected frequency deviation of the receiving-end MMC, and dynamically adjust the DC voltage of the DC transmission system based on the DC voltage change value;

[0015] The sending-end MMC response module is configured to: obtain the voltage amplitude control quantity through the sending-end hybrid MMC controller, decouple the voltage amplitude control quantity from the DC current to obtain the DC voltage of the DC transmission system, and determine the wind farm frequency regulation quantity based on the DC voltage of the DC transmission system;

[0016] The wind turbine response module is configured to: reconstruct the frequency change information of the receiving-end AC grid based on the frequency adjustment of the wind farm, and adjust the output active power of the wind turbine according to the frequency change information of the receiving-end AC grid, so as to achieve frequency support for the receiving-end AC grid.

[0017] Thirdly, the present invention provides an electronic device including a memory and a processor, and computer instructions stored in the memory and running on the processor, wherein the computer instructions, when executed by the processor, perform the method described in the first aspect.

[0018] Fourthly, the present invention provides a computer-readable storage medium for storing computer instructions, which, when executed by a processor, perform the method described in the first aspect.

[0019] The above one or more technical solutions have the following beneficial effects:

[0020] The active support control method proposed in this invention, applicable to offshore wind power DC transmission systems, overcomes the defect that the active power is borne by the hybrid MMC when the active support control strategy of the traditional flexible DC system is transplanted to the DR-hybrid MMC topology through three stages: receiving-end MMC response, sending-end MMC response, and wind turbine response. In particular, when the hybrid MMC is operating at zero DC voltage, it can avoid the hybrid MMC from increasing its transmitted active power, reducing the rated capacity of the hybrid MMC, and improving the economic efficiency of the system.

[0021] The active support control method proposed in this invention, applicable to offshore wind power DC transmission systems, fills the gap in the current research on active support control strategies for DR-hybrid MMC series topologies. It effectively improves the frequency and voltage support capability of the system for the receiving-end grid, and helps to enhance grid stability in scenarios where a high proportion of new energy sources are connected to the grid.

[0022] The active support control method proposed in this invention, applicable to offshore wind power DC transmission systems, requires only the active support controller to collect the voltage amplitude control quantity of the wind farm AC system output by the sending-end MMC controller and the DC current flowing through the sending-end MMC to calculate the system DC voltage. No additional measuring device is required, resulting in low cost.

[0023] The active support control method proposed in this invention, applicable to offshore wind power DC transmission systems, transmits frequency change information of the receiving-end grid through the system's DC voltage. The active support controller installed on the sending-end MMC can calculate the system's DC voltage locally, without needing to measure the relevant operating parameters of the diode converter. After the sending-end MMC calculates the system's DC voltage, it converts the extracted receiving-end grid frequency change information into a change in the frequency of the wind farm's AC system. The wind turbine can respond after detecting this change. The entire process requires no communication and does not rely on additional communication devices, resulting in high control reliability.

Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains.

[0032] It should be noted that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular implementations only and is not intended to limit the exemplary implementations of the present invention.

[0033] Where there is no conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0034] Example 1

[0035] The topology of offshore wind power transmitted via a DR-hybrid MMC series DC transmission system is as follows: Figure 1 As shown in the diagram, the sending-end converter station in this topology uses a diode rectifier connected in series with a hybrid MMC (Multi-Module Connector) of full-bridge and half-bridge submodules on the DC side and in parallel on the AC side. The receiving-end converter station also uses a hybrid MMC of full-bridge and half-bridge submodules. During steady-state operation, the receiving-end converter station uses constant Udc and Q control, while the sending-end hybrid MMC uses constant Vf control to provide a voltage reference for the wind farm's AC system. Simultaneously, a constant DC voltage control is added. By adjusting the voltage amplitude of the wind farm's AC system, the DC voltage at the DR port is adjusted to maintain a constant DC voltage in the sending-end hybrid MMC. Therefore, when the hybrid MMC is subjected to the aforementioned constant DC voltage control, the changes in the system's DC voltage will be borne by the DR.

[0036] A diode rectifier on the DC side can be equivalently represented by a controlled voltage source connected in series with a virtual internal resistance. The output voltage of the controlled voltage source is affected by the AC voltage at the AC side port. The magnitude of the virtual internal resistance is related to the leakage inductance of the transformer connected to the diode converter station, and the corresponding mathematical expression is:

[0037] (1)

[0038] In the formula, V dcDR This is the equivalent controlled voltage source voltage on the DC side of the DR. k T For the DR transformer turns ratio, U l This refers to the line voltage amplitude of the AC system in the wind farm. R The virtual internal resistance of the DR on the DC side. ω s For the electric angular velocity of the AC system, L T This refers to the leakage inductance of the DR transformer.

[0039] The equivalent circuit of the DC side of the offshore wind power transmission system via DR-hybrid MMC is as follows: Figure 2 As shown.

[0040] Based on the topology, steady-state control strategy, and DC-side equivalent circuit diagram of the offshore wind power transmission system via DR-hybrid MMC, the active support control strategy of the system is explained. The active support control strategy of the system mainly includes three stages: receiving-end MMC response, sending-end MMC response, and wind turbine response.

[0041] The first stage is the receiving-end MMC response. When the receiving-end power grid is subjected to a frequency disturbance, the receiving-end MMC's phase-locked loop detects the frequency deviation Δ. f grid This generates a DC voltage change value Δ. Udc This transmits the information about frequency changes to the system's DC voltage, Δ f grid With Δ U dc The relationship is:

[0045] like Figure 3 As shown, the receiver-side hybrid MMC adopts a traditional fixed-position method. U dc Q control employs classic dual-closed-loop control, with the average capacitor voltage of the active outer loop control submodule being [value missing]. u sm Based on the rated value of the average capacitor voltage of the receiving end hybrid MMC submodule u sm * Compared with actual value u sm The deviation generates the d-axis current reference value. i vd * The reactive power outer loop control circuit adopts constant reactive power control to control the reactive power generated by the receiving end hybrid MMC. Q Based on the reactive power command value Q ref Compared with actual value Q The deviation generates a q-axis current reference value. i vq * The inner current loop controls the d-axis current. i vd With q-axis current i vq Tracking d-axis current reference value i vd * q-axis current reference value ivq * It outputs the differential-mode fundamental frequency voltage command value. u diffj (j=a,b,c). The circulating current suppressor uses a classic control structure to suppress the internal circulating current of the receiving-end mixed MMC. i cird and i cirq Suppression is set to zero, and the common-mode second harmonic component command value is output. u comj (j=a,b,c). The DC control loop also adopts the classic dual closed-loop control, with the outer DC loop controlling the DC voltage of the DR-hybrid MMC DC output system. U dc It also outputs the DC current command value of the DR-hybrid MMC DC output system. I * dc The DC outer loop will control the system's DC voltage. U dc Controlled to rated value U * dc And superimposed the above DC voltage change value Δ U dc The DC voltage of the system U dc Control as U * dc +Δ U dc This transmits the frequency change information to the DC voltage of the DR-hybrid MMC DC output system; the DC inner loop controls the DC current of the system. I dc Tracking reference values I * dc It also outputs the DC component command values ​​of the upper and lower bridge arm voltages. u comj2 (j=a,b,c). The differential-mode fundamental frequency voltage command value... u diffj (j=a,b,c), Common-mode second harmonic component command value u comj (j=a,b,c) and command values ​​of DC components of upper and lower bridge arm voltages u comj2 The input of (j=a,b,c) superimposed values ​​is approximated by the nearest level modulator to achieve control of the receiving end hybrid MMC.

[0046] The second stage is the sending-end MMC response. When the receiving-end grid is disturbed, the receiving-end MMC will dynamically adjust the DC voltage of the system within a small range. The change in the DC voltage of this system will be borne by the sending-end DR, and the magnitude of the DC voltage at the DR port is related to the voltage amplitude of the wind farm's AC system. U l Related. Therefore, the target value of the line voltage amplitude of the wind farm AC system output by the sending-end hybrid MMC supplemented constant DC voltage controller. U * l With the system's DC voltage U dc The relevant, specific relationship is as follows:

[0047] (3)

U dc The DC voltage of the DC system. ω s For the electric angular velocity of the AC system, L T For DR transformer leakage inductance, I dc The system's DC current, U dcMMCN The rated DC voltage of the MMC at the sending end. k T This refers to the turns ratio of the DR transformer. In the first stage, the receiving-end hybrid MMC transmits the DC voltage from the DR-hybrid MMC to the system. U dc Control as U * dc +Δ U dc ,in U * dc For the rated value, Δ U dc This is the DC voltage change value generated based on the frequency deviation of the receiving-end power grid.

[0049] Given the system parameters, the controller calculates and adjusts the voltage amplitude control quantity. U * l Decoupling from the DC current, the DC voltage of the system is obtained as follows:

[0050] (4)

[0051] In the formula, U dcCAL This is the calculated value of the system's DC voltage.

[0052] The sending-end hybrid MMC calculates the real-time system DC voltage by measuring the system's DC current. The difference between this calculated DC voltage and the system's rated DC voltage is then passed through a proportional circuit and output as the wind farm frequency regulation variable Δ. f wind The input is then fed into the MMC constant Vf controller at the sending end to dynamically adjust the frequency of the wind farm's AC system. f wind The frequency change information of the receiving-end power grid is transmitted to the AC system of the wind farm. The wind farm frequency regulation amount Δ f wind The calculated DC voltage of the system satisfies the following formula:

[0056] like Figure 4 As shown, the sending end hybrid MMC adopts a constant V / f The control employs a classic dual-closed-loop control system.

The circulating current suppressor uses a classic control structure to suppress the internal circulating current of the MMC at the sending end. i cird and i cirq Suppression is set to zero, and the common-mode second harmonic component command value is output. u comj (j=a,b,c). The DC control loop also adopts the classic dual closed-loop control, with the average capacitor voltage of the DC outer loop control submodule being... u sm Rated value u sm * It also outputs the DC current command value of the DR-hybrid MMC DC output system.

[0057] The third stage is the wind turbine response, where the phase-locked loop of the wind turbine's generator-side converter detects the frequency of the wind farm's AC system. f’ wind With frequency rating f * The frequency deviation is obtained by subtraction, and then the active power command value adjustment Δ of the wind turbine is generated through a proportional circuit. P Adjusting the active power generated by the wind turbine to achieve frequency support for the receiving-end AC power grid, Δ P and f’ wind Satisfy the following formula:

[0058] (6)

[0059] In the formula, k p This is the proportionality coefficient.

[0060] The coordinated control structure of the entire process is as follows: Figure 5 As shown.

[0061] The active support control method proposed in this embodiment, applicable to offshore wind power DC transmission systems, overcomes the defect that when the active support control strategy of traditional flexible DC systems is transplanted to the DR-hybrid MMC topology, the active power will be borne by the hybrid MMC. In particular, when the hybrid MMC is operating at zero DC voltage, it can avoid the hybrid MMC increasing its transmitted active power, reducing the rated capacity of the hybrid MMC, and improving the economic efficiency of the system.

[0062] The active support control method for offshore wind power DC transmission systems proposed in this embodiment fills the gap in the current research on active support control strategies for DR-hybrid MMC series topologies. It effectively improves the frequency and voltage support capability of the system for the receiving-end grid and helps to enhance grid stability in scenarios where a high proportion of new energy sources are connected to the grid.

[0063] The active support control method for offshore wind power DC transmission systems proposed in this embodiment only requires the active support controller to collect the voltage amplitude control quantity of the wind farm AC system output by the sending-end MMC controller and the DC current flowing through the sending-end MMC to calculate the DC voltage of the system.
