Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the fields of power electronics and flexible power transmission technology, specifically to a method for dynamic adjustment of wide-frequency domain parameters of a photovoltaic inverter for flexible low-frequency power transmission. Background Technology
[0002] Flexible low-frequency power transmission technology is a novel power transmission method that reduces line impedance, increases transmission capacity, and reduces losses by lowering the transmission frequency (e.g., 10Hz–50Hz). It is particularly suitable for long-distance offshore wind power and power transmission from photovoltaic power plants. However, traditional photovoltaic inverters are designed for operation at the power frequency (50Hz / 60Hz), and their control parameters, filter topologies, and phase-locked loop mechanisms are optimized for power frequency. Directly applying these to low-frequency power transmission faces the following problems: 1. Risk of instability: The impedance characteristics of the system change greatly at low frequencies. Traditional fixed-parameter control strategies are prone to causing a decrease in stability or even oscillation.
[0003] 2. Poor output power quality: When operating at low frequencies, the original design of the LCL filter may cause resonance shift, resulting in increased output waveform distortion.
[0004] 3. Insufficient dynamic response: The bandwidth of the current loop and phase-locked loop needs to be readjusted at low frequencies, otherwise the dynamic performance will degrade.
[0005] 4. Lack of mode switching capability: Existing inverters do not support smooth and stable switching between power frequency grid connection and low frequency power transmission modes.

[0022] Example 1 like Figure 1As shown, a method for dynamic adjustment of wide-frequency domain parameters of a photovoltaic inverter for flexible low-frequency power transmission includes: S1. Based on the filter parameters and control parameters of the photovoltaic inverter, establish the frequency domain expression of the output impedance in the 10Hz~50Hz frequency band in the rotating coordinate system corresponding to low-frequency operation. ,in For the Laplace operator.
[0023] Specifically, the rotating coordinate system corresponding to low-frequency operation is the dq coordinate system or the αβ coordinate system.

When switching to low-frequency transmission mode, it increases the filter capacitor value or connects an auxiliary capacitor in parallel to adapt to the filtering requirements under low-frequency output. For example... Figure 3 As shown.
[0026] The phase-locked loop corresponding to the control parameters adopts a dual-mode phase-locked structure, including a power frequency phase-locked loop and a low-frequency phase-locked loop. The bandwidth and center frequency of the low-frequency phase-locked loop are adjustable, and the two are switched according to system commands.
[0027] S2, Combining the frequency domain expression of output impedance Equivalent grid impedance of flexible low-frequency transmission system Based on the Nyquist stability criterion, the low-frequency stability criterion index is determined. ,in, For the magnitude margin, For phase margin, The weighting coefficient for the gain margin. The weighting coefficients for phase margin are: and It can adaptively adjust to changes in low-frequency power transmission frequency.
[0028] Specifically, this embodiment takes a photovoltaic inverter in a flexible low-frequency power transmission system as the application object, adapting to the wide frequency range operation requirements of 10Hz to 50Hz. By collecting real-time operating parameters of the system, the frequency influence factor and stability requirement factor are calculated, and finally the weighting coefficient is realized. , The dynamic adjustment is implemented as follows: 1. Core parameter configuration To achieve adaptive weight calculation, the core parameters of the flexible low-frequency transmission system and photovoltaic inverter need to be pre-configured. The values, physical meanings, and configuration basis of each parameter are as follows. All parameters are determined based on engineering practice and system stability requirements: Adaptive weight calculation requires pre-configuration of the following core parameters: Power frequency reference value 50.0Hz, the lowest permissible low-frequency operating frequency 10.0Hz, phase margin threshold 30.0°, adjustment coefficient 0.1, base weight value 0.5, frequency factor weighting coefficient Stability factor: 0.2 : 0.3.
[0029] 2. Adaptive weight calculation In this embodiment, the adaptive weighting coefficients α (amplitude margin weight) and β (phase margin weight, β=1) are used. The calculation of α is accomplished through the following steps: (1) Obtain current running status parameters Real-time acquisition of current operating parameters of the low-frequency power transmission system, including: Current low-frequency operating frequency The unit is Hz, and the current phase margin estimate is... The unit is degrees (°), and it calls the preset core parameters.
[0030] (2) Calculate the frequency influence factor
[0031] Frequency Influence Factor The degree to which the current operating frequency deviates from the power frequency reference value is characterized, and its calculation follows a piecewise linear saturation function: when At this time, the frequency influence factor This indicates that the system is in an extremely low frequency band, at which point the amplitude margin weight should reach its maximum. when At this time, the frequency influence factor This indicates that the system is operating close to the power frequency, and the frequency has a negligible impact on the weights. when (When the current frequency is in the low-frequency operating range) Calculate using the following formula:
[0032] The lower the frequency, The larger the value, the greater the weight of the amplitude margin in the overall stability margin assessment, in order to compensate for the control uncertainty caused by the increased phase information delay in the low frequency band.
[0033] (3) Calculate the stability demand factor
[0034] Stability demand factor Based on the deviation between the current phase margin and the threshold, the Sigmoid function is used to achieve smooth nonlinear mapping, and its calculation formula is as follows:
[0035] Where k is the adjustment coefficient, controlling The steepness of the transition near the threshold. When the phase margin is below the threshold. This indicates that the system is in an unstable state, and the magnitude margin weight needs to be increased to enhance robustness; when the phase margin is higher than the threshold, This indicates that the system has sufficient stability margin, and the amplitude weight can be appropriately reduced to optimize the dynamic response.
[0036] (4) Calculate the weighting coefficients Based on the basic weights, frequency influence factor, and stability requirement factor, the initial weighting coefficients of the gain margin are calculated using a linear superposition method. The calculation formula is as follows: Calculate the weighting coefficients: , ,in Basic weight value, and These are the weighting coefficients for the frequency factor and the stability factor, and and The value range is [0,1].
[0037] Through weighting coefficients To ensure the stability of the computational benchmark, by and This allows for independent adjustment of frequency factors and stability requirements, preventing weight calculations from falling into local extrema.
[0038] To verify the effectiveness of this embodiment, the verification results of the following three typical operating scenarios are provided: Scenario 1: Low-frequency operation and insufficient stability margin Operating conditions: , (Below the threshold of 30°).
[0039] Calculation results: , , , .
[0040] The system is in a double disadvantageous state of low frequency and insufficient phase margin. The algorithm adjusts the magnitude margin weight to 0.763 and the phase margin weight to 0.237, so that the controller relies more on magnitude information when evaluating the system stability margin, effectively avoiding misjudgment caused by phase delay.
[0041] Scenario 2: Low-frequency operation but with sufficient stability margin Operating conditions: , (30° above the threshold).
[0042] Calculation results: , , , .
[0043] Although the frequency is still low, the phase margin is sufficient. Accordingly, the algorithm adjusts the amplitude margin weight to 0.650 and the phase weight to 0.350, so as to ensure robustness while taking into account dynamic response performance.
[0044] Scenario 3: Operating near power frequency Operating conditions: , .
[0045] Calculation results: , , , .
[0046] With the frequency close to the power frequency, the frequency influence factor λ_f approaches 0, and the phase margin slightly exceeds the threshold, the algorithm automatically adjusts the weighting coefficients to near neutral. ≈ (≈0.5), allowing the stability margin assessment to revert to the traditional power frequency mode. This scenario verifies the algorithm's ability to smoothly transition over a wide frequency range.
[0047] S3. Define the filter parameters and control parameters as the parameter vector to be optimized. To maximize With the goal of considering the quality of low-frequency output power, an optimization problem model was established based on the constraints.
[0048] Specifically, the objective expression for the optimization problem model is:

[0051] Low-frequency dynamic performance constraints: ,in, This is the cutoff frequency of the current loop in the low-frequency range. This is the lower limit of the cutoff frequency. This is the upper limit of the cutoff frequency.
[0052] Low-frequency voltage accuracy constraints: ,in For low-frequency output voltage deviation, This represents the upper limit of the allowable deviation.
[0053] Low-frequency power smoothness constraint: ,in, For low-frequency output power fluctuations, This represents the upper limit of allowed fluctuations.
[0054] S4. The optimal parameter vector corresponding to the target low-frequency frequency is obtained by iteratively solving using an intelligent optimization algorithm. .
[0055] Specifically, the intelligent optimization algorithm can be any one of particle swarm optimization, genetic algorithm, or differential evolution algorithm. The specific steps are as follows: Initialize the particle swarm, where the position of each particle represents a parameter vector X to be optimized, and the velocity is randomly generated; Calculate the fitness value of each particle, i.e., the stability criterion index. ; Update the individual optimal position and the global optimal position; The state of the particles is iteratively updated based on the velocity and position update formulas of the particle swarm optimization algorithm. When the maximum number of iterations is reached or the fitness value converges to a stable value, the globally optimal position is output as X_opt.
[0056] S5. Monitor the operating frequency of the power transmission system in real time. When the system switches to flexible low-frequency transmission mode or the low-frequency operating frequency changes beyond the preset threshold, take the target low-frequency frequency as input, repeat steps S1 to S4, and update the optimal parameter vector online. The system dynamically adjusts the filter topology of the photovoltaic inverter (e.g., adding / removing some capacitors / inductors) and control parameters to ensure the inverter outputs stable low-frequency voltage and current that meet requirements. Figure 2 As shown, comparing the stability margins of fixed parameters and dynamically adjusted parameters, the stability phase margin of dynamically adjusted parameters is improved by 87°.
