[0017] The inventors of this application discovered in their research that when the aforementioned bidirectional DC / DC converter is applied to an energy storage system as a constant power load (CPL), the CPL causes the bidirectional DC / DC converter to exhibit negative impedance characteristics when the energy storage device is charging. This negative impedance characteristic leads to a decrease in the reliability and stability of power supply between the CPL and the AC / DC grid-connected converter (GCC).

[0018] To solve this technical problem, additional sensors are required in related technologies, which increases costs and failure rates.

[0019] To address the aforementioned issues without requiring additional sensors, one or more embodiments of the control method for a bidirectional DC / DC converter provided in this application are as follows: Reference Figure 2 This illustrates a control method for a bidirectional DC / DC converter provided in an embodiment of this application, which may include the following steps S201 to S203, corresponding to... Figure 3 The present application provides a control block diagram of a bidirectional DC / DC converter according to an embodiment of the present application, which can realize stability enhancement control based on virtual impedance.

[0022] Step S203: According to the control signal, the PWM module outputs a second switching signal during the charging state of the energy storage device. The second switch signal Used to output to the base of the second switching device in the bidirectional DC / DC converter, generating (or adding) a virtual impedance for the bidirectional DC / DC converter.

[0023] In this embodiment, the virtual impedance controller Used to generate control quantities related to the DC bus voltage, actively adjusting the system impedance characteristics, and controlling the DC bus voltage. After virtual impedance controller After processing, the virtual impedance output is obtained, and the current compensation setting value is also obtained. Based on the virtual impedance output and the current compensation setting value... A control signal is generated, and then, based on this control signal, the PWM module outputs a second switching signal during the charging state of the energy storage device. Second switch signal The base of the second switching device in the bidirectional DC / DC converter is used to generate a virtual impedance for the bidirectional DC / DC converter to neutralize or cancel the negative impedance, thereby solving the negative impedance characteristic of the bidirectional DC / DC converter in the charging state and improving the reliability and stability of power supply in the energy storage converter system.

[0024] In this embodiment, the negative impedance is offset by actively introducing a "virtual impedance" characteristic, thereby avoiding oscillation and enhancing the DC bus voltage. This improves the stability and reliability of the system and enhances the robustness of the system's dynamic response.

[0025] Here, virtual impedance output refers to the signal output by the virtual impedance controller. Figure 3 In this context, the virtual impedance controller outputs the voltage loop multiplied by its control gain. Current compensation setpoint. Used to compensate for virtual impedance output.

The gain is related, in one implementation. .in It is the target value of DC voltage. It is the transfer function of a virtual impedance controller (such as a PI controller). The proportionality coefficient.

[0027] Among them, the current compensation setting value The introduction of this technology can adjust the output current of the bidirectional DC / DC converter, reduce the current deviation caused by the DC voltage feedback component, and improve the dynamic response speed of the converter.

[0028] The operating state (charging or discharging) of the energy storage device can be determined by the needs of the energy storage system, and can be selected based on the control signals mentioned above during control.

[0029] In one implementation, step S202 involves determining the virtual impedance output and the current compensation setting value. Generating a control signal may include steps S2021 and S2022.

[0030] Step S2021, the power reference value of the energy storage device Divide by the terminal voltage of the energy storage device Obtain the current reference value of the energy storage device.

[0033] In one embodiment, the control method may further include: outputting a first switching signal by the PWM module during the discharge state. The first switch signal This signal is used to output to the base of the first switching device in the bidirectional DC / DC converter. Since the bidirectional DC / DC converter does not exhibit negative impedance characteristics in the discharge state, under normal circumstances, this first switching signal... It will not cooperate with the first switching device to generate a virtual impedance for the bidirectional DC / DC converter. Of course, in some special cases, if the bidirectional DC / DC converter exhibits negative impedance characteristics during discharge, this first switching signal... It can also be used in conjunction with the first switching device to generate a virtual impedance for neutralizing or offsetting negative impedance in a bidirectional DC / DC converter.

[0034] In one embodiment, the virtual impedance controller can be a proportional-integral (PI) controller, and the current controller can be a PI controller.

[0035] Among them, the transfer function of the virtual impedance controller middle, , .

The inductance value of the energy storage inductor. This is the capacitance value of the output capacitor. This represents the steady-state value of the inductor current. This refers to the duty cycle during which the second switching device in the bidirectional DC / DC converter is turned on. The steady-state value of the DC voltage can be understood as the rated value, representing the target voltage of the DC bus or the DC side of the AC / DC grid-connected converter during stable operation.

[0037] In the discharge state, the first switching device is turned on and the second switching device is turned off; conversely, in the charging state, the first switching device is turned off and the second switching device is turned on.

[0038] In one embodiment, the method further includes: Obtain the circuit equations of the bidirectional DC / DC converter in small-signal form under discharge conditions; Obtain the duty cycle equation of the bidirectional DC / DC converter under charging conditions; Based on the small-signal circuit equations and the duty cycle equation, determine the remodeled output impedance of the bidirectional DC / DC converter during the charging state. ; Based on the DC bus voltage Virtual impedance introduced by feedback With reshaped output impedance Original impedance The corresponding relationship is used to determine the reshaped output impedance. and original output impedance Relationship; Based on this relationship, the reshaped output impedance Set it to infinity to determine the transfer function of the virtual impedance controller. In and .

[0039] Among them, the reshaped output impedance Setting it to infinity can help improve system stability.

[0040] Among them, a current compensation setting value is introduced. It can adjust the output current of the bidirectional DC / DC converter, reduce the current deviation caused by DC voltage feedback components, and improve the dynamic response speed of the converter. Current setpoint It can be set manually.

[0041] Among them, the current compensation setting value can also be set. Compared with this current reference value The superposition of the actual current of the energy storage device The resulting deviation is compared and passed through the transfer function of the current controller. Adjustment is made to generate control signals.

[0042] This application also provides an energy storage converter system, as described in the embodiments. Figure 4 The energy storage converter system includes an energy storage device, a bidirectional DC / DC converter, and an AC / DC grid-connected converter. The bidirectional DC / DC converter is connected between the energy storage device and the DC bus, and the AC / DC grid-connected converter is connected between the DC bus and the power grid. The bidirectional DC / DC converter includes a bidirectional Buck-Boost circuit, which includes a first switching device and a second switching device. The bidirectional DC / DC converter is controlled by the control method for the bidirectional DC / DC converter as described in the above embodiment.

[0043] The energy storage module is connected to the DC bus via a bidirectional DC / DC converter. The grid-connected AC / DC converter (GCC) acts as the energy hub, providing a power flow path between the grid and the DC bus. The bidirectional DC / DC converter has two operating modes: in step-down mode (Buck), it performs step-down energy storage (energy storage charging); in step-up mode (Boost), it performs step-up discharge (energy storage discharging).

[0044] In the aforementioned bidirectional DC / DC converter, the first switching signal is connected. The first switching device, and the connection to the second switching signal The second switching device is a power switching device (such as a MOSFET or IGBT), which can achieve bidirectional energy conversion through complementary conduction. In the energy storage device charging mode (battery absorbs energy): the first switching device is turned on and the second switching device is turned off. The circuit operates in Buck mode, converting the high-voltage energy from the DC bus into low-voltage energy suitable for the battery. In the energy storage device discharging mode (battery releases energy): the second switching device is turned on and the first switching device is turned off. The circuit operates in Boost mode, converting the low-voltage energy from the battery into high-voltage energy suitable for the DC bus. Inductor It is an energy storage inductor that stores / releases energy when the first or second switching device switches, enabling voltage boost / buck and suppressing current ripple to ensure smooth current flow.

During charging: Current. Flowing in from the DC bus, passing through the first switching device and inductor Capacitors flowing to the battery side Ultimately, this charges the energy storage device. During discharge: Current The current flows out from the battery side, through the anti-parallel diode and inductor of the second switching device. It flows to the DC bus to replenish the DC bus with electrical energy.

[0045] exist Figure 4 In the middle, the left side includes the power grid and transformer. The AC power supply on the left undergoes voltage transformation (such as step-down or isolation) through the transformer, providing a suitable AC input for the subsequent AC / DC grid-connected converter. The AC / DC grid-connected converter converts the AC output from the transformer into DC power and then... Filtering stabilizes the DC bus voltage, providing DC input for the subsequent bidirectional DC / DC converter.

[0046] Next, returning to the control method for bidirectional DC / DC converters mentioned above, we will explain the transfer function of the virtual impedance controller. The design method is described, and the control method proposed in this application is verified to be able to solve the negative impedance problem and improve the stability and reliability of the system compared with related technologies.

[0047] Based on the above Figure 4 Taking the circuit diagram of the energy storage converter system shown as an example, when the energy storage device discharges, the bidirectional DC / DC converter operates in Boost mode. Figure 4 The circuit structure and Laplace transform shown can be used to obtain the circuit equation in small-signal form as follows: (1) (2) (3) in, D for Figure 4 The duty cycle of the first or second switching device is [value missing]. This is the steady-state value of the DC voltage. This represents the steady-state value of the inductor current. For output capacitor, This is the input capacitor.

[0048] If we take Figure 1 Control block diagrams Figure 4 By controlling the bidirectional DC / DC converter in the circuit, the following equations and conclusions can be derived: by Figure 1 Control block diagrams Figure 4 By controlling the bidirectional DC / DC converter in the circuit, the duty cycle equation can be obtained as follows: (4) in, It uses a PI controller in the current loop.

[0049] Combining equations (1)-(4), at this time Figure 4 The high-voltage side DC impedance of the bidirectional DC / DC converter system during the discharge of the energy storage device is derived as follows: (5) Similarly, the high-voltage side DC impedance of the bidirectional DC / DC converter system during energy storage device charging can be obtained as follows: (6) To verify the accuracy of the small-signal impedance model, frequency sweep tests were performed using MATLAB / Simulink. Harmonic currents of different frequencies were continuously injected into the intermediate DC link from 1Hz to 2000Hz. According to Thevenin's theorem, the ratio of the response voltage to the harmonic current is the DC impedance at the test point. The theoretical and measured results of the bidirectional DC / DC converter are shown in Figure 5, where lines and circles represent the theoretical and measured impedances, respectively. Figure 5 is the impedance Bode plot, where Figure 5(a) shows the impedance results for energy storage discharge, and Figure 5(b) shows the impedance results for energy storage charging. The theoretical and measured impedances agree well within the switching frequency range, indicating that the impedance model of the bidirectional DC / DC converter is accurate.

[0050] As shown in Figure 5(b), the impedance of the bidirectional DC / DC converter exhibits negative impedance characteristics within the target frequency range during energy storage charging. This negative incremental impedance will lead to a deterioration in the dynamic characteristics of the system and may even cause system voltage oscillations, which is one of the main factors affecting the voltage stability of the DC grid.

[0051] Next, the stability of the bidirectional DC / DC converter in the intermediate DC link is analyzed based on impedance analysis. As shown in Figure 6, the two-stage energy storage converter system can be regarded as an interconnected converter system consisting of a source subsystem and a load subsystem. The source subsystem is equivalent to an impedance. It is connected in series with a voltage source; the load subsystem is equivalent to an impedance. It is connected in parallel with the current source.

[0052] exist Figure 6 In the middle, DC voltage The calculation formula is: (7) in, It is the impedance ratio of the source and load subsystems, which is equivalent to the small loop gain of the system.

[0053] According to the impedance-based stability criterion, in the impedance Bode plot, when and When the amplitude curves intersect and the phase difference at the intersection frequency is greater than 180°, the system is unstable. As shown in Figure 5(b), when the stored energy is discharged, The phase angle is at 90° to A 180° element, i.e., a negative damping element. In the system source impedance... In this respect, the line inductance and supporting capacitance will increase. The amplitude, if its amplitude is greater than ,at the same time When the frequency is in the negative damping band, the system exhibits negative damping near that frequency. If the output voltage of the bidirectional DC / DC converter decreases (increases) slightly, it will cause the current to increase (decrease), further exacerbating the decrease (increase) in the output voltage of the bidirectional DC / DC converter, forming a positive feedback process, leading to DC system oscillation, i.e., DC bus voltage... Unstable.

[0054] Therefore, if we take Figure 1 Control block diagrams Figure 4 The bidirectional DC / DC converter in the circuit is controlled by an impedance Bode plot as shown in Figure 5, which exhibits negative damping. This negative damping will cause the DC bus voltage to... Unstable.

[0055] In the embodiments of this application, using Figure 2 Control block diagrams Figure 4 The bidirectional DC / DC converter is controlled to shape its output impedance, thereby improving the stability of the bidirectional DC / DC converter in the intermediate DC link.

[0056] If we take Figure 2 Control block diagrams Figure 4 By controlling the bidirectional DC / DC converter in the circuit, the following equations and conclusions can be derived: Due to the relevant technologies ( Figure 1 The bidirectional DC / DC converter uses single current loop control. To construct a virtual impedance, a virtual impedance controller is considered. Introduce DC voltage feedback, such as Figure 4 As shown. Taking the charging state of the energy storage device as an example, the duty cycle equation can be obtained as follows: (8) Combining equations (1)-(3) and (8), the output impedance of the bidirectional DC / DC converter when the energy storage device is in the charging state can be obtained. : (9) in, (10) Reshaped output impedance and original output impedance The expressions have the same numerator, from which we can derive the virtual impedance introduced by DC voltage feedback. With the original impedance It is a parallel relationship, such as Figure 7 As shown. Therefore, the introduced parallel virtual impedance is obtained. The expression is (11) Additionally, a current setting value needs to be added. It is used to adjust the output current of the bidirectional DC / DC converter, reduce the current deviation caused by the DC voltage feedback component, and improve the dynamic response speed of the converter.

[0057] Among them, the reshaped output impedance and original output impedance The relationship is represented as follows: (12) Let the denominator of expression (12) be 0. This will increase to infinity, which is beneficial for improving the stability of the system. Therefore, substituting equations (6) and (11) into equation (12), we can obtain... (13) Choosing a PI controller as the virtual impedance controller, simplifying equation (13) yields the following: (14) (15) in, , The transfer functions of the virtual impedance controller are respectively proportionality coefficient and integral coefficient, , The transfer functions of the current controller are respectively The proportional and integral coefficients. Substituting the corresponding parameters into equations (14) and (15) yields the virtual impedance controller. The parameters.

[0058] This completes the design of the virtual impedance controller.

[0059] Based on the control method of the bidirectional DC / DC converter proposed in this application, frequency sweep tests were performed in MATLAB / Simulink. The results are shown in Figure 8. The solid line represents the impedance Bode plot of the aforementioned sensor-controlled system, and the dashed line represents the impedance Bode plot of the virtual impedance control in the embodiment proposed in this application. Figure 8(a) shows the impedance Bode plot of the energy storage device during discharge, while Figure 8(b) shows the impedance Bode plot of the energy storage device during charging. It can be seen that adding virtual impedance in the embodiment of this application does not change the positive impedance characteristic during energy storage discharge, and it raises the phase curve; adding virtual impedance can correct the negative impedance characteristic of energy storage charging to a positive value throughout the entire frequency range. The results show that the control method proposed in the embodiment of this application has the effect of enhancing stability in both energy storage charging and discharging conditions.

[0060] A simulation model was built on the MATLAB / Simulink simulation platform for time-domain verification, and the simulation waveforms shown in Figure 9(a) and Figure 9(b) were obtained. Figure 9(a) shows the simulation waveform during the charging of the energy storage device. Before 0.4s, the bidirectional DC / DC converter uses current closed-loop control (corresponding to...). Figure 1 (Referring to related technologies), it can be seen that when current closed-loop control is used, the DC link of the system becomes unstable, resulting in oscillations. However, when the virtual impedance-based control method proposed in this application is applied starting at 0.4s, the oscillations are suppressed, the DC voltage converges, and eventually stabilizes at the reference value of 1200V. Therefore, the control method for bidirectional DC / DC converters proposed in this application can improve the oscillations during energy storage device charging and enhance system robustness.

[0061] Figure 9(b) shows the simulated waveform of the energy storage device during discharge. Before 0.4s, the bidirectional DC / DC converter adopts current closed-loop control (corresponding to...). Figure 1 (Related technologies); the system remains stable even after the virtual impedance-based control method proposed in this application is applied at 0.4s. Therefore, the control method for bidirectional DC / DC converters proposed in this application improves the oscillations during charging of the energy storage device and enhances the system's robustness without weakening the robustness during discharging.

[0062] This application also provides a control device for a bidirectional DC / DC converter. Figure 10 This diagram illustrates the structure of a control device 100 provided in an embodiment of this application.
