Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the fields of new energy power systems and relay protection technology, and more specifically, to a method and apparatus for calculating short-circuit current of a photovoltaic-energy storage combined system for relay protection. Background Technology
[0002] As the penetration rate of photovoltaic power generation continues to increase, the guidelines for grid connection of new energy sources are beginning to require grid-connected new energy units to have low voltage ride-through (LVRT) capabilities. This means that during a certain period of time when a low voltage fault occurs in the grid, the unit is not only not allowed to disconnect from the grid, but also needs to provide a certain capacity of reactive power support to the grid to help restore the grid voltage. With the grid's increasing demands on the characteristics of new energy units, photovoltaic-storage / wind-storage / wind-photovoltaic-storage microgrid technologies are gradually emerging. The combination of new energy and energy storage can achieve smooth output of new energy power generation and regulate the changes in voltage, frequency, and phase in the photovoltaic-storage microgrid caused by power fluctuations. This will help break through the bottleneck of new energy power generation access.
[0003] Current research on relay protection models for photovoltaic (PV) and other new energy sources mainly focuses on the fault characteristics of the PV systems themselves and their impact on the power grid. However, similar to conventional power sources, grid connection of PV and other new energy sources is a complex system engineering project. Collector lines connect dispersed PV panels, which are then collected by collector lines to unit step-up transformers, then connected to the busbar, and finally connected to the power grid via the step-up transformers and grid connection lines. With the application of energy storage, the fault characteristics and short-circuit current calculation methods of PV-energy storage combined systems have gradually become a research focus. However, current research in this area is limited, and methods for calculating short-circuit current in PV-energy storage relay protection are lacking.
[0004] In summary, in the scenario of photovoltaic-energy storage combined system connected to the grid, how to realize the calculation of short-circuit current of relay protection of photovoltaic-energy storage combined system and ensure the accurate calculation of protection setting value is a key problem that urgently needs to be solved in the current technical field.

[0056] Exemplary methods
[0057] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for calculating the short-circuit current of a photovoltaic-energy storage combined system under relay protection, provided in an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment can be applied to electronic devices, such as… Figure 1 As shown, the method 100 for calculating the short-circuit current of the relay protection of a photovoltaic-energy storage combined system includes the following steps:
[0058] Step 101: Establish the equivalent mathematical model of the inverter in the photovoltaic-energy storage combined power generation system. The equivalent mathematical model of the inverter in the fault state is equivalent to a positive sequence current source.

[0061] Specifically, this invention discloses a method for calculating short-circuit current in relay protection of a photovoltaic-energy storage combined system. This method relates to the fields of new energy power systems and relay protection technology. It establishes a typical photovoltaic-energy storage combined system, conducts theoretical analysis of the system, establishes a corresponding mathematical model, analyzes and simplifies the mathematical model, and derives short-circuit current calculation formulas applicable to different operating conditions. Combining the system's equivalent circuit and fault boundary conditions, and considering the dynamic response characteristics of the photovoltaic and energy storage units, it achieves accurate short-circuit current calculation, providing a reliable basis for relay protection setting. This method comprehensively considers the fluctuation of photovoltaic output, the charging and discharging characteristics of energy storage, and the transient process at the moment of fault. It accurately characterizes the amplitude and phase changes of the fault current through staged modeling. In the initial stage of the fault, the initial value of the short-circuit current is solved based on the Thevenin equivalent circuit. In the dynamic response stage, differential equations are introduced to describe the current regulation effect of the inverter control strategy, and the output current limiting mechanism of the photovoltaic and energy storage units is determined by combining the voltage drop degree. Simulation results demonstrate that this method effectively reflects actual short-circuit characteristics under various fault types and operating modes, with a calculation error of less than 5%, significantly improving the reliability and sensitivity of protection actions. This method can adapt to the short-circuit current calculation needs of photovoltaic-energy storage systems under various operating conditions such as grid connection, islanding, and mode switching. It effectively solves the problem of insufficient accurate basis for existing relay protection setting, improves the fault response capability and safe operation level of microgrids, and provides technical support for the large-scale integration of new energy sources.
[0062] This invention provides a method for calculating the short-circuit current of a photovoltaic-energy storage combined system for relay protection. It addresses the challenge of calculating the short-circuit current of a photovoltaic-energy storage combined power generation system in grid-connected scenarios, ensuring that the calculation results reliably reflect the short-circuit current situation during grid faults.
[0063] In view of the above problems, this invention provides a method for calculating the short-circuit current of a photovoltaic-energy storage combined system's relay protection. By constructing an equivalent circuit model of the photovoltaic-energy storage combined system and combining fault boundary conditions with inverter control strategies, the short-circuit current is solved in stages. In the transient fault stage, the initial value of the short-circuit current is calculated based on the Thevenin equivalent principle, reflecting the characteristics of the inrush current at the moment of the fault. In the dynamic adjustment stage, a differential equation model including the control loops of the photovoltaic and energy storage units is established, considering the impact of voltage dips on the current limiting circuit, and simulating the inverter's output response under current constraints. Through a piecewise analytical method combined with numerical iteration, the time-varying characteristics of the short-circuit current amplitude and phase are accurately obtained, ensuring high-precision calculations under different fault types and operating conditions. This provides a reliable basis for relay protection setting, effectively avoiding protection maloperation and failure to operate due to short-circuit current estimation errors, and significantly improving the system's safe and stable operation under complex conditions.
[0065] This invention provides a distance protection setting method and system based on electromagnetic transient simulation data, which solves the technical problem in the prior art of how to achieve dynamic calculation of distance protection settings in complex and ever-changing new power system scenarios, and ensure that the calculation results reliably reflect the changes in measured impedance state and setting values during power grid faults.
[0066] like Figure 2 As shown, this invention provides a distance protection setting method based on electromagnetic transient simulation data, including:
[0067] First, the topology and component parameters of the photovoltaic-energy storage system are obtained, and a detailed mathematical model including inverter control strategies is established. Taking a photovoltaic-energy storage combined power generation system as an example, its typical structure connected to the power grid through a step-up transformer is as follows: Figure 2 As shown.
[0068] In this structure, multiple photovoltaic and energy storage units within the power station are each connected in parallel to the collecting busbar in the combiner station via a single-stage step-up transformer. The photovoltaic and energy storage units within the station are connected to the step-up transformer via the collecting busbar, and the high-voltage side of the step-up transformer is connected to the high-voltage transmission network. Typically, the low-voltage side of the unit transformer is Y-connected with its neutral point directly grounded, while the high-voltage side is d-connected; the step-up transformer typically has a Y-connection on the high-voltage side, a d-connection on the low-voltage side, and a directly grounded neutral point on the high-voltage side.
[0069] The internal structure of the photovoltaic-energy storage power generation unit is as follows: Figure 2 As shown in the figure. (u) dc This refers to the DC bus voltage; i ga i gb i gc and u ga u gb u gc These represent the three-phase current and voltage at the inverter output; R and L are the filter resistor and inductor, respectively. The photovoltaic array in the photovoltaic power generation unit adopts a two-stage grid-connected structure, connected to the DC bus after being boosted by a unidirectional DC / DC converter; the energy storage battery in the energy storage power generation unit is boosted by a bidirectional DC / DC converter and then connected in parallel to the DC bus. The inverter converts the DC power into three-phase AC power, which is then connected to the grid via a box-type transformer.
[0070] Distributed power sources can be classified into two types based on interface type: rotating and inverter-type. Among them, the new energy-storage combined generation system belongs to the inverter-type power source. It is connected to the grid via an inverter, and its output exhibits strong nonlinearity. A large-capacity capacitor is typically connected between the generator unit and the inverter in a new energy-storage combined generation system. During a fault, the DC-side voltage remains essentially constant, so the dynamic response of the generator unit can be ignored. Therefore, the output characteristics of the new energy-storage combined generation system are primarily determined by the inverter control strategy.
[0071] Before the voltage drop, the inverter was in steady-state operation and running at unity power factor, with its d-axis and q-axis currents i d0 i q0 The following relationship must be satisfied:
[0072]
[0073] In the formula, This represents the d-axis current before the fault.
[0074] Therefore, the three-phase current i output by the inverter before the voltage drop ga0 i gb0 i gc0 It can be represented as:
[0075]
[0076] In the formula: ω1 is the synchronous angular velocity; θ i The initial phase of the fundamental frequency component of the d-axis current; The initial phase angle is the fundamental frequency component of the current.
[0077] Because an inverter interface is used, the inertial time constant is very small, and the transient component in the inverter output fault current can be ignored. It can be approximated that the AC output current of the inverter under grid fault conditions does not contain attenuated DC components or fundamental frequency free components, and the inverter directly enters fault steady-state operation. Therefore, the d-axis and q-axis components of the fault current output by the inverter after a voltage drop can be expressed as:
[0078]
[0079] In the formula: i d0 (t) — d-axis current before the fault; Δi df (t) — Change in d-axis current after the fault; —D-axis current after fault; i q0 (t) — q-axis current before the fault; Δi qf (t) — Change in q-axis current after the fault; —q-axis current after the fault;
[0080] Therefore, the three-phase fault current output by the inverter can be obtained as follows:
[0081]
[0082] In the formula: These are the commanded values for the d-axis and q-axis currents after the fault. ω1—synchronous angular velocity; θ i —Initial phase of the fundamental frequency component of the d-axis current; —Initial phase angle of the fundamental frequency component of the current.
[0083] Because the inverter employs a grid voltage-oriented vector control strategy and maintains unity power factor during grid connection, its active current is oriented towards the grid connection point voltage under normal operating conditions. During fault periods, the increased reactive current output will cause the output current to lag behind the grid connection point voltage.
[0084] Meanwhile, the relationship between the fault output current of the photovoltaic-storage inverter and the grid connection point voltage can also be expressed as:
[0085]
[0086] In the formula: I d —Inverter output d-axis current; I d —Inverter output q-axis current; —The phase angle of the grid connection point voltage Ug.
[0087] As mentioned earlier, when a grid fault occurs, the fault current output by the inverter can be considered to contain only the positive-sequence current component. Therefore, in the event of a grid fault, the inverter can be treated as an equivalent positive-sequence current source for fault analysis. Furthermore, this positive-sequence current source can be obtained from the expression based on the LVRT control strategy. With the positive sequence voltage of the grid connection point The functional relationship between them, that is, the equivalent mathematical model of the inverter, can be expressed in the form of equation (6), that is, the short-circuit current calculation expression of the photovoltaic-energy storage combined system is as follows:
[0088]
[0089] In the formula, I DG —Fault current in photovoltaic-energy storage combined system;
[0090] I N —Inverter rated current; —The phase angle between the d-axis current and the q-axis current output by the inverter; —Initial phase angle of the fundamental frequency components of current and voltage; —Positive sequence voltage at grid connection point; U N —Inverter rated voltage; —d-axis current after fault —q-axis current after the fault;
[0091] In summary, when a grid-side fault occurs, the voltage at the grid connection point decreases, and the output current of the photovoltaic-storage combined generation system increases compared to before the fault. However, due to the inverter's current limiting constraint, when the voltage at the grid connection point drops to a certain level and the inverter's steady-state short-circuit current reaches its upper limit, the inverter's output current remains constant at 1.05 times the rated output current. As mentioned earlier, after a fault occurs in the photovoltaic-storage combined generation system, an equivalent positive-sequence current source model is typically used for fault analysis.
[0092] Therefore, this invention can adapt to the short-circuit current calculation needs of photovoltaic-energy storage systems under various operating conditions such as grid connection, islanding, and mode switching, effectively solve the problem of the lack of accurate basis for the setting of existing relay protection values, improve the fault response capability and safe operation level of microgrids, and provide technical support for the large-scale access of new energy sources.
