Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of power electronic equipment and converter control technology, and more specifically, relates to a control method and system for grid-type converters that improves stability under small disturbances. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of high-proportion new energy power systems represented by wind power and photovoltaics, grid-connected converters have become key technical equipment for improving the stability and reliability of power systems because they can autonomously establish and support grid voltage and frequency. The core of grid-connected control lies in simulating the physical characteristics of synchronous generators, and its control strategy typically includes an active-frequency loop and a reactive-voltage loop.

[0003] In existing technologies, to simplify system analysis and controller parameter design, researchers often employ a key model simplification technique when analyzing network-based control strategies (such as small-disturbance stability): ignoring the dynamic equations of reactive power. This involves assuming the reactive power loop responds extremely quickly or directly ignoring its dynamic process, retaining only the dynamic equations of the active power loop for analysis. While this simplification reduces model order and analytical complexity, in real physical systems, active and reactive power dynamics are closely related through grid impedance, load, and cross-coupling terms within the converter. Ignoring reactive power dynamics can lead to misjudgments of the system's actual stability margin; for example, it might misjudge an unstable system as stable, or significantly deviate from the assessment of stability boundaries and damping characteristics.

[0004] Currently, academia and industry lack a unified, quantitative tool to assess the analytical errors introduced by model simplification (ignoring reactive power dynamics), and even more so, to compare the coupling strength between active and reactive power under different network configurations and active power control strategies. This results in a lack of clear quantitative basis for control strategy selection, parameter tuning, and system-level stability assessment, affecting the accuracy, safety, and economy of system design. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a unified quantitative assessment method that can cross control strategies and system orders to accurately measure the stability analysis deviations caused by the simplification of ignoring reactive power dynamics under different control methods, and to reveal the inherent laws of active-reactive power coupling in different active power control strategies. Summary of the Invention

[0023] Preferably, within the stable parameter domain, feasible parameter combinations are iterated and calculated. For each feasible parameter combination, the deviation index is calculated, and then the maximum deviation index is determined.

[0024] ;

[0025] in, To account for the attenuation factor of reactive dynamic coupling, To ignore the attenuation factor of reactive dynamic coupling, the deviation index The larger the value, the more significant the impact of reactive power dynamics on stability assessment.

[0029] To achieve the above objectives, in a third aspect, this application provides a computer-readable storage medium including instructions that, when executed on an electronic device, cause the electronic device to perform the control method as described in the first aspect.

[0030] It is understood that the beneficial effects of the second and third aspects mentioned above can be found in the relevant descriptions in the first aspect mentioned above, and will not be repeated here.

[0031] Overall, the technical solutions conceived in this application have the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art:

[0032] This application proposes a control method for networked converters to improve stability under small disturbances. By constructing an adaptive threshold judgment mechanism based on the "deviation index," the method associates the coupled system state-space model corresponding to five typical active power control strategies with system parameters, determines the maximum value of the deviation index in the stability parameter domain under each strategy, and uses the median of these maximum values ​​as the adaptive threshold. In actual control, since the impact of reactive power dynamic coupling on system stability varies under different active power control strategies, the method compares the maximum deviation index corresponding to the current strategy with this threshold to dynamically determine whether to use a model considering reactive power dynamic coupling or ignoring it for controller parameter tuning. This effectively balances model complexity and computational efficiency while ensuring the accuracy of small disturbance stability analysis, avoiding potential stability misjudgments caused by oversimplification of the model.

[0041] Small disturbances refer to a tiny, local disturbance applied to a system, and have the following characteristics: (1) small amplitude: the amplitude of a small disturbance is usually much smaller than the signal amplitude when the system is running normally; (2) locality: small disturbances usually act on a local part of the system, rather than a major global disturbance.

[0059] It should be noted that, based on the physical equilibrium relationship revealed by the Routh stability criterion, the original third-order system is mapped to an equivalent second-order system with the same net damping characteristics. Furthermore, an equivalent damping factor is defined from this equivalent second-order system. This method has mathematical uniformity: when the coefficient of the third-order term is zero, the equivalent damping factor automatically degenerates into the damping ratio of the second-order system.

[0067] Preferably, the current active power control strategy is one of the typical active power control strategies or is different from the typical active power control strategy.

[0068] Example

[0069] This embodiment selects five typical active power control strategies for grid-connected inverters as evaluation objects, namely droop control, scaling control, and flexural control. Control, proportional-derivative droop control Droop control containing second-order differential terms Virtual synchronous generator control and virtual synchronous generator control with feedforward These five control strategies are all for active power. and power control loop output phase angle The control transfer function between them is used to convert it into active power.

These are the coefficients of the first-order differential term in a control system containing second-order differentials. These are the coefficients of the second-order differential term. Forward coefficients, For differential operators, It is a virtual inertial constant. This is the reference angular frequency.

[0070] The above five typical active power control strategies can be expressed in a unified standard form as follows: , These are constant coefficients.

[0071] The following will use The standard form of the active power control parameters is used to derive the dynamic equation expressions for completely ignoring the reactive power loop and considering the first-order dynamics of the reactive power loop.

[0072] On the one hand, the dynamic equation for the phase angle when reactive power is completely ignored is as follows:

[0074] in, ;

[0080] For the five typical active power control strategies mentioned above, this application establishes high-fidelity state-space models (considering reactive power and voltage dynamics) and simplified state-space models (ignoring reactive power and voltage dynamics) of their grid-connected systems.

[0081] Table 1. Equations for five active power control strategies that directly neglect reactive power dynamics.

[0082]

[0083] Table 2 Dynamic equations considering reactive power under five active power control strategies

[0084]

[0085] Based on the unified method defined in this application, the equivalent attenuation factor of each active power control strategy is calculated under both reactive power control model and reactive power control model.

[0086] The spatial state differential equations under different active power control strategies fall into two categories: second-order and third-order. To unify the evaluation index of second-order and third-order systems, a decay factor is defined. .

[0087] The second-order differential equation can be written in general form:

[0088] ;

[0089] The attenuation factor is defined as the damping ratio in the second-order differential equation, and the damping ratio is selected. As a description of the damping characteristics of a second-order differential equation, when the coefficients of the constant term in the general formula... The condition for system stability is that the decay factor is positive. Greater than 0. The specific form is as follows:

[0090] ;

[0091] Rewrite the third-order differential equation in general form:

[0092] ;

[0093] Unlike second-order differential equations, third-order systems do not have an explicit definition of a decay factor index. For third-order systems, higher-order dynamics... The presence of higher-order effects often introduces phase lag, thereby weakening the overall damping characteristics of the system. To quantify the impact of these higher-order effects on system stability and establish a unified quantization framework with second-order systems, this application constructs an equivalent reduced-order model based on the Routh criterion. Specifically, the stability boundary of a third-order system is satisfied by the coefficients of its characteristic equation. This algebraic relationship reveals the physical mechanism of system stability. We map the third-order system to an equivalent second-order system that preserves this net damping characteristic:

[0094] ;

[0095] Based on this, the equivalent attenuation factor is defined. :

[0096] ;

[0097] in, , Equivalent attenuation factor In mathematical form, it is consistent with the second-order index, when It degenerates into a second-order form when the condition is met. When this is the case, the stability principle described in the Routh criterion naturally holds true, thus constructing a unified evaluation dimension across orders.

[0098] For a second-order system, taking the first type of pure active power droop control method as an example, the reactive power neglect control model is as follows:

[0099] ;

[0100] The reactive power control model considering reactive power coupling is as follows:

[0101] ;

[0102] in, This represents the grid voltage amplitude, which is a parameter in the power system network model. This refers to the per-unit rated power, which is an electrical parameter of the converter. , These are the regulating parameters of the converter control system; , , These are parameters related to the operating status of the grid-connected system. It belongs to the derived quantity obtained by coupling and simplifying the basic parameters.

[0103] Ignore reactive power Denotes the attenuation factor, where

[0104] ;

[0105] Considering reactive power Denotes the attenuation factor, where

[0106] ;

[0107] For a third-order system, taking the fourth virtual synchronous generator control method as an example, the reactive power neglect control model is as follows:

[0108] ;

[0109] The reactive power control model considering reactive power coupling is as follows:

[0110] ;

[0111] in, , , These are runtime status parameters; , , These are the regulating parameters of the converter control system; Characteristic parameters belonging to the converter, This represents the grid voltage amplitude, which is a parameter in the power system's network model. It belongs to the derived quantity obtained by coupling and simplifying the basic parameters.

[0112] Ignore reactive power Denotes the equivalent attenuation factor, where:

[0113] ;

[0114] Considering reactive power Denotes the equivalent attenuation factor, where:

[0115] ;

[0116] To quantify the bias in stability analysis caused by the simplification of modeling by ignoring reactive power equations, a normalized error index is defined. as follows:

[0117] ;

[0118] in, To account for the attenuation factor of reactive dynamic coupling, To ignore the attenuation factor of reactive dynamic coupling. If A smaller value indicates that the reactive power-ignoring control model can reproduce the damping characteristics of the real system with high fidelity; conversely, if... A large value indicates that ignoring reactive power dynamics will lead to significant stability assessment errors. In this case, a reactive power control model should be used for analysis. Based on this, a normalized error index based on the equivalent attenuation factor is employed. This allows for a quantitative assessment of the impact of the simplification strategy of ignoring reactive power equations on system stability, as well as a quantitative analysis of the dynamic coupling strength between active and reactive power.

[0119] To ensure the fairness and relevance of the assessment to the project, a parameter range that meets the requirements for stable operation of the project is defined for each control strategy, including but not limited to: droop coefficient. Differential gain and Reasonable range of values ​​for parameters.

[0120] Within the stable parameter domain of each strategy, parameter traversal calculations are performed. For each control strategy, the corresponding indices are calculated under different feasible parameter combinations. Find the values ​​and identify the maximum value, denoted as . .Should This characterizes the maximum upper bound that the stability assessment error may reach under this strategy when ignoring reactive dynamics, which reflects the modeling bias under the worst operating conditions.

[0121] Through the above systematic calculations, the five active power control strategies were calculated separately, resulting in the five control strategies. Values ​​such as Figure 2 As shown. The first control strategy is drooping. Control, within the stable parameter range The maximum value of the indicator is 5.1185; the second control strategy is... Compared to , introduced Parameters make The maximum increase in the indicator was 10.3544; the third control strategy was to introduce... The parameters are reduced compared to the second method. The indicator was reduced to 10.3369; the fourth control strategy used... Controlled within a stable parameter range The maximum value of the indicator is 5.1185; the fifth control strategy introduces a coefficient based on VSG. Mid-to-late indicators It will drop to 5.7488. The smaller the indicator, the less the impact of ignoring reactive power on active power control, and the weaker the coupling between active and reactive power. The five control methods are ranked from largest to smallest impact as follows: This embodiment fully demonstrates the implementation process of the evaluation method proposed in this invention and its application value in comparing the active and reactive power coupling strength under different active power control strategies, verifying the effectiveness and practicality of the method.

[0122] Furthermore, the median value of all maximum deviation indices is used as the adaptive threshold for the deviation index. Based on the comparison between the maximum deviation index of the active power control strategy and the adaptive threshold, the modeling method of the grid-type converter is selected. The control parameters are tuned based on the selected model to achieve stable control of the grid-type converter: if the maximum deviation index exceeds the threshold, a grid-type converter model considering reactive power dynamic coupling is established; otherwise, a grid-type converter model ignoring reactive power dynamic coupling is adopted.
