Here, the illustrative embodiments of the present invention and their descriptions are used to explain the present invention, but are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0027] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7 To improve the safety and stability of low-frequency power transmission systems, this application provides a relay protection method for converters in low-frequency power transmission systems, comprising: S101: Determine the current setting value corresponding to each relay protection function based on the topology and operating parameters of the low-frequency transmission system. S102: Based on the obtained valve-side electrical parameters and the current setting value, control the AC circuit breaker on the valve side of the power frequency converter transformer and the AC circuit breaker on the low frequency bus side to protect the valve-side connection line. S103: Control the AC circuit breaker on the power frequency side and the AC circuit breaker on the low frequency side to protect the converter valve based on the obtained valve body electrical parameters and the current setting value.
[0028] Understandable Figure 1 This is the main circuit diagram of the M3C. The M3C consists of nine bridge arms and connects two three-phase AC systems of different frequencies. Assume the AC grid voltage on the power frequency side is... v u , v v , v w The current is i u , i v , i w The voltage of the three-phase low-frequency AC grid is v a , v b , v c The grid current is i a , i b , i c .
[0029] Figure 2From the perspective of the power frequency / low frequency side, the M3C topology can be considered as consisting of three sub-converters: phase a sub-converter (containing ua, va, wa converter chains), phase b sub-converter (containing ub, vb, wb converter chains), and phase c sub-converter (containing uc, vc, wc converter chains). These three sub-converters are collectively referred to as phase x (x=a, b, c).
[0030] From the low-frequency side (abc), it can also be viewed as consisting of three sub-converters: the u-phase sub-converter (containing ua, ub, uc converter chains), the v-phase sub-converter (containing va, vb, vc converter chains), and the w-phase sub-converter (containing wa, wb, wc converter chains). These three sub-converters are collectively referred to as the y-phase sub-converter (y = u, v, w).
[0031] Based on the structural characteristics of M3C, a complete relay protection configuration method based on M3C converter is proposed.
[0032] In summary, the converter relay protection includes converter valve protection and valve zone power / low frequency connection line protection, and the configuration of each protection is shown in Table 1.
[0033] Table 1
[0034] To achieve the above protection functions, it is necessary to first determine the current setting value corresponding to each relay protection function. The specific method is described below.
[0035] As described above, the low-frequency transmission system converter relay protection method provided in this application is specifically a complete relay protection configuration method for modular multilevel matrix converters in low-frequency transmission systems. It includes multiple protection functions such as valve-side connection line protection and converter valve protection. Innovatively, it employs an electromagnetic transient analysis model to automatically generate protection setting values, achieving accurate calculation and optimization of relay protection settings. This fills a technological gap in converter protection in the low-frequency transmission field, ensuring reliable system operation under normal and fault conditions, effectively preventing equipment damage and system fault expansion, and improving the safety and stability of low-frequency transmission systems. Furthermore, it has strong engineering applicability, providing technical support for the design, operation, and maintenance of actual power systems, and promoting the widespread application of flexible low-frequency transmission technology in new power systems.
[0036] In one embodiment, see Figure 6 , Figure 8 The step of determining the current setting value corresponding to each relay protection function based on the topology and operating parameters of the low-frequency transmission system includes: S201: Construct an electromagnetic transient analysis model for a low-frequency power transmission system based on its topology and operating parameters; S202: Generate the maximum operating value and minimum fault value corresponding to each relay protection function based on the electromagnetic transient analysis model of the low-frequency power transmission system; S203: Determine the current setting value based on the maximum operating value and the minimum fault value; wherein, the minimum fault value < the current setting value < the maximum operating value.
[0037] Specifically, see Figure 9 The step of generating the maximum operating value and minimum fault value corresponding to each relay protection function based on the electromagnetic transient analysis model of the low-frequency power transmission system includes: S301: Use the electromagnetic transient analysis model of the low-frequency power transmission system to determine multiple normal operating conditions of the low-frequency power transmission system; S302: Select the largest current value from the maximum current values corresponding to each normal operating condition as the operating maximum value; S303: Use the electromagnetic transient analysis model of the low-frequency power transmission system to determine multiple fault conditions in the low-frequency power transmission system; S304: Select the minimum current value from the minimum current values corresponding to each fault condition as the minimum fault value.
[0038] Understandably, the method for determining the setting value is as follows: Because the working principle of converters is relatively complex, the setting values of their related relay protection cannot be obtained manually as in traditional protection methods. Therefore, a new method is proposed: Taking the valve-side connection line overcurrent protection as an example, the electrical quantity selected for this protection is the IVT current on the converter transformer valve side. Explain its setting value. The method for obtaining it.
[0039] The maximum value of IVT under normal operating conditions of the power system is denoted as IVT. nomalmax The minimum value of IVT under fault conditions is denoted as IVT. faultmin Setting value It should meet the following requirements: IVT nomalmax < <IVT faultmin (15) Among them, IVT was determined nomalmax and IVT faultmin The method is as follows: The first step is to establish an electromagnetic transient analysis model.
[0040] When building a model, it is necessary to clarify the topology of the power system; confirm the base capacity and base voltage; and obtain the per-unit impedance values of each voltage level under the maximum and minimum operating modes based on the data; equivalent parameters on the grid side (including positive sequence resistance, reactance, and zero sequence resistance, reactance); line parameters; and parameters on the power source side (usually new energy power plants).
[0041] For example, in a scenario where new energy is transmitted via flexible low-frequency collection in a certain region, the detailed composition and equivalents of each component are as follows: (1) The low-frequency new energy power station model is to equate the wind farm cluster to multiple detailed wind turbine models. The rated power of a single wind turbine is fixed, and the output power is multiplied at the wind turbine outlet step-up transformer. The power is collected through a 35kV collection line, and then the voltage is raised to 220kV through a step-up transformer. The power is then collected through a 220kV collection line and connected to a 20Hz switch station. The 20Hz switch station contains a 20Hz circuit breaker.
[0042] (2) After the low-frequency new energy is collected, it is connected to the 20Hz low-frequency line. The line adopts the π-type equivalent model and the total length of the line can be set.
[0043] (3) Flexible low-frequency power transmission AC switching station includes low-frequency circuit breaker, low-frequency transformer, AC switching valve, grounding transformer, power frequency transformer and power frequency circuit breaker, etc.
[0044] (4) The equivalent model of the power frequency system consists of a power frequency voltage source connected in series with a resistor and an inductor.
[0045] See the low-frequency power transmission system model. Figure 5 As shown, the low-frequency electrical energy generated by the wind turbines flows into the busbar and is then transmitted to the grid connection point via low-frequency transmission lines. The M3C converts the energy to power frequency before connecting it to the regional power grid. After the M3C startup process is complete, voltage vector directional control is activated. Once the M3C establishes a stable low-frequency voltage, the grid-side converter control and the turbine-side converter control of the wind power system are unlocked. The isolation transformer serves as the electrical isolation element.
[0046] Based on the above, an electromagnetic transient analysis model of a low-frequency transmission system including converter transformers is established according to the actual topology and parameters of the power system.
[0047] The second step is to run the analysis model and automatically generate the IVT. nomalmax and IVT faultmin parameter.
[0048] (1) Generate IVT nomalmax
[0049] The electromagnetic transient analysis model of the low-frequency transmission system selects the maximum operating mode under normal operation and sets M states (the specific value of M can be freely set according to actual conditions). The output of the renewable energy power station is different in each state (the output can be freely set according to actual conditions). The analysis model automatically runs the above M states sequentially, reading the IVT each time, until the maximum value of IVT is found. nomalmax .
[0050] (2) Generate IVT faultmin
[0051] The electromagnetic transient analysis model for low-frequency transmission systems selects the minimum operating mode under fault conditions. The fault state is freely selected based on different fault locations (for valve-side connection line overcurrent protection, the fault location is chosen at the valve-side connection line, and the specific fault location can be freely chosen) and different fault types (usually four types: single-phase short-circuit to ground, two-phase short circuit, two-phase short-circuit to ground, and three-phase short circuit). Simultaneously, the output of the renewable energy power station can be freely selected according to actual conditions. N states are generated based on these conditions. These N states are automatically run sequentially on the analysis model, with IVT read each time, until the minimum IVT is found. faultmin .
[0052] Refer to the above steps Figure 6 The process shown is implemented in detail.
[0053] As can be seen from the above description, the low-frequency transmission system converter relay protection method provided in this application can determine the current setting value corresponding to each relay protection function according to the topology and operating parameters of the low-frequency transmission system.

[0056] It is understandable that the valve-side connection line protection function is as follows. Among them, steps S401 to S407 describe the connection line protection on the power frequency side, while steps S501 to S505 describe the connection line protection on the low frequency side.
[0057] In other words, valve-side connection line protection is divided into power frequency side and low frequency side. Because the converter starts from the power frequency side, it is equipped with a starting resistor compared to the low frequency side. Apart from this device, the configurations of other devices on both sides are basically the same. Therefore, the power frequency connection line on the valve side is used as an example to illustrate the protection configuration. The low frequency connection line is the same as the power frequency side except that it does not require starting resistor protection. See [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 3 As shown.
[0058] 1. Differential protection for valve-side connection lines
[0059] This protection is used to detect ground faults occurring at the valve-side connection line. The protection function measures the current IVT of the converter transformer valve-side winding and the current IVC of the AC connection line CT. When a ground fault occurs at the AC connection line, there is a fault current between the current IVT of the valve-side winding and the current IVC of the AC connection line, resulting in a differential current. The converter valve group corresponding to the fault is locked out, and the AC circuit breaker on the power frequency converter transformer valve side and the AC circuit breaker on the low frequency bus side corresponding to the converter valve are tripped.

This is a preset zero-sequence voltage threshold on the valve side. When a ground fault occurs at the valve-side connection line, and the zero-sequence voltage exceeds a certain value, the corresponding converter valve is locked, tripping the AC circuit breaker on the valve side of the power frequency converter transformer and the AC circuit breaker on the corresponding low-frequency bus side of the converter valve. The action criterion is set as follows:
[0064] 3. Valve-side zero-sequence overcurrent protection
[0065] Used to detect grounding faults in the connecting lines, the protection function measures the current IVT of the converter transformer valve side winding and the current IVC of the AC connecting line CT, when the sum of the zero-sequence currents of the two ( If the value exceeds a certain threshold, the protection system will activate, locking the corresponding converter valve and tripping the AC circuit breaker on the power frequency converter transformer valve side and the AC circuit breaker on the corresponding low-frequency bus side.

Its action criterion is:
[0068] 5. Overcurrent protection of starting resistor
[0069] This system is used to detect ground faults in the starting resistor. It measures the current ISR flowing through the starting resistor. When the current exceeds a certain value, the corresponding converter valve is locked, and the AC circuit breaker on the power frequency converter transformer valve side and the corresponding low-frequency bus AC circuit breaker are tripped. The protection action activation criteria are:
[0070] 6. Overload protection for starting resistor
[0071] This system is used to detect overload of the starting resistor and its total harmonic current. If the total harmonic current exceeds a set value, the protection system will activate. The protection activation delay should be sufficient to avoid the effects of transient overloads to prevent false tripping. It should be set using an inverse time-delay principle.
[0072] 7. Frequency anomaly protection
[0073] 1) Power frequency side inter-frequency quantity protection
[0074] When the converter valve is operating normally, the power frequency side and the low frequency side are decoupled, and the low frequency component cancels out the three phases on the power frequency side. When the operation is abnormal, the low frequency component can be detected on the power frequency side. The protection criteria are as follows.

[0085] It is understandable that steps S601 to S604 describe the protection of the converter valve.
[0086] The protection zone of the converter valve mainly extends from the current transformer (CT) on the power frequency side starting resistor to the current transformer (CT) on the low frequency bus. Here, CT refers to the current transformer. The configuration primarily considers two main types of equipment: valve groups and reactors, with differential and overcurrent protection included. A schematic diagram of the configuration is shown below. Figure 4 As shown. The current direction for protection in this area is set to point towards the converter valve. In the diagram and the following formulas, the suffix or subscript "50" for current I represents the power frequency side, and "20" represents the low frequency side; "ua, ub, uc, va, vb, vc, wa, wb, wc" represent the converter chain, see details. Figure 2 IVC stands for AC connection line CT current, subscript... A、B、C This represents phases A, B, and C. For example, This represents the current flowing through the magnetic flux linkage ua on the power frequency side, and so on. SET All are setpoint values.
[0087] 1. Bridge arm overcurrent protection
[0088] This device is used to detect short-circuit faults in the converter and grounding faults in the low-frequency side lines. It measures the current on the power frequency side arm of the converter valve; if the current exceeds a set value, it activates to lock the converter valve and trip the AC circuit breaker on the power / low-frequency side. The activation criteria are as follows:
[0089] This protection requires consideration of the converter valve's tolerance capabilities, and the coordination of multi-stage protection action settings and timing.
[0090] 2. Differential protection for bridge arm reactors
[0091] This protection is used to protect reactors and connected AC busbars from grounding faults. Its operating principle employs a phase-differential design, using an OR logic for the three phases. When the single-phase differential current exceeds a set value, the protection trips quickly, locking the converter valve and tripping the start-up / low-frequency side AC switch. Its operating principle is as follows:
[0092] 3. Valve differential protection
[0093] This protection is used for grounding faults within the converter valve. Its protection principle employs a segmented differential approach, calculating the differential current from the currents on both sides of the same bridge arm. Using an OR logic across the nine bridge arms, when the single-phase differential current exceeds a set value, the protection operates quickly, locking the converter valve and tripping the start-up / low-frequency side AC switch. Its operating principle is as follows:
[0094] 4. Differential protection on the power frequency side of the converter valve
[0095] The protection operates over a short lead area from the start-up resistor valve's current transformer (CT) on the power frequency side to the power frequency side of the converter valve arm. It uses a phase-differential protection mechanism with an OR logic across the three components. When the differential current exceeds a set value, the protection trips quickly, locking the converter valve and tripping the AC switch on the power / low frequency side. Its operating principle is as follows:
[0096] 5. Converter overcurrent protection
[0097] This protection is used to protect the converter valve and the AC line on the low-frequency side from grounding short-circuit faults. When the current IVC50 of the CT on the power frequency connection line of the valve side exceeds a certain value, the protection will activate and lock the converter. This protection serves as a backup protection for the differential protection on the power frequency side of the converter valve.
