Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of AC distribution network interconnection equipment and technology, and specifically relates to a hybrid flexible interconnection device with series compensation. Background Technology
[0002] Under the backdrop of energy conservation requirements, the integration of numerous indirect and distributed power sources into the distribution network presents new challenges in terms of power supply reliability and power flow control. Variable frequency transformers (VFDs), as grid interconnection devices based on mechanical motion to regulate power flow, offer advantages over power electronics-based flexible interconnection devices in terms of high reliability, high efficiency, and simple control. Furthermore, they are suitable for synchronous grids, asynchronous grids, and grid interconnections at different voltage levels.
[0003] Existing power distribution network interconnection devices are mostly flexible interconnection devices based on power semiconductor devices or mechanical power flow regulation devices based on frequency converters. Both types of devices have their drawbacks: flexible interconnection devices based on power semiconductor devices have poor fault tolerance and high cost; mechanical power flow regulation devices based on frequency converters have slow dynamic response speed and poor dynamic performance. Therefore, researching power distribution network interconnection devices with fast dynamic response speed and strong fault tolerance is of great practical significance. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the above problems, this invention proposes a hybrid flexible interconnect device with series compensation, the specific technical solution of which is as follows:

[0006] The series converter is used to improve the dynamic response speed of the series-compensated hybrid flexible interconnect device, thereby compensating for the dynamic characteristics of the frequency converter.
[0007] The frequency converter transformer is used to regulate the active power between the first AC port and the second AC port;
[0008] The first reactive harmonic compensation device is used to compensate for the reactive power and harmonic current of the first AC port when the series-compensated hybrid flexible interconnect device is running.
[0009] The second reactive harmonic compensation device is used to compensate for the reactive power and harmonic current of the second AC port when the series-compensated hybrid flexible interconnect device is running.
[0010] Switch S 1a Switch S 1b Switch S 1c For connecting or disconnecting the series-compensated hybrid flexible interconnect device from the first AC power source;
[0011] Switch S 2a Switch S 2b Switch S 2c Used to connect or disconnect the series-compensated hybrid flexible interconnect device from the second AC power source.
[0012] Switch S pa Switch S pb Switch S pc Used to connect resistor R a Resistance R b Resistance R c Connect to the main power circuit or bypass it from the main power circuit;
[0013] resistor R a Resistance R b Resistance R c Used to suppress surge currents generated when the series-compensated hybrid flexible interconnect device is connected to the first AC power supply and the second AC power supply;
[0014] The control and protection system is used to execute control strategies, issue control commands to various parts, and receive feedback signals from various parts.
[0015] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] The hybrid flexible interconnection device with series compensation proposed in this invention has stronger line power flow regulation capability and faster power flow regulation speed compared to frequency converters, while also possessing a certain reactive power compensation capability, enabling the interconnection of multiple AC distribution networks. Thanks to the power characteristics of the series converter, the required rated power of the series converter is much smaller than the rated transmission power between distribution networks, making the cost of the hybrid flexible interconnection device with series compensation lower than that of back-to-back converters based on multi-level technology.

[0028] During steady-state operation of the series-compensated hybrid flexible interconnection device, the fundamental component of the output voltage of the series converter approaches zero, absorbing only a minimal amount of active power to maintain the DC capacitor voltage of each submodule. The power transmitted on the line is adjusted by the rotation angle of the frequency converter rotor. During transient power changes, the series converter outputs a control voltage to rapidly adjust the power transmitted on the line to the commanded value. Simultaneously, the frequency converter rotor begins to rotate to adjust the power transmitted on the line. After the frequency converter rotor outputs a rotation angle control value, the voltage output by the series converter gradually decreases to near zero, while the power transmitted on the line remains unchanged at the commanded power value. The control and protection system of the series-compensated hybrid flexible interconnection device monitors the reactive power of the first and second AC ports in real time and compensates for it using the first and second reactive harmonic compensation devices, respectively. It can also receive reactive power and harmonic compensation commands from the power dispatch control center to perform reactive power and harmonic compensation on the interconnected power grid.
