Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of frequency converter protection technology, and in particular to frequency converter short-circuit protection circuits, short-circuit detection methods and related equipment. Background Technology
[0002] In the short-circuit protection of frequency converters, current detection is usually used to detect whether the current in the frequency converter changes, so that the frequency converter can be protected in time when a short circuit occurs based on the current change.
[0003] When a frequency converter is powered on, if a short-circuit fault occurs, such as a DC bus short circuit, output phase-to-phase short circuit, or output-to-ground short circuit, the current will change significantly. Existing current detection methods can detect this current change to identify related short-circuit faults and provide short-circuit protection when a short-circuit fault is detected. However, for short-circuit faults to ground, if a short-circuit fault to ground exists before the frequency converter is powered on, at the moment of power-on, current may flow to ground from other branches (i.e., the main current may not change), and the relevant detection devices and control systems are not powered on. This makes it difficult for the relevant detection devices to detect the presence of a short-circuit fault to ground by detecting the current. Summary of the Invention

[0038] In the short-circuit protection of frequency converters, current detection is usually used to detect whether the current in the frequency converter changes, so that the frequency converter can be protected in time when a short circuit occurs based on the current change.
[0039] When a frequency converter is powered on, if a short-circuit fault occurs, such as a DC bus short circuit, output phase-to-phase short circuit, or output-to-ground short circuit, the current will change significantly. Existing current detection methods can detect related short-circuit faults in the frequency converter based on this current change and provide short-circuit protection when a short-circuit fault is detected. Specifically, for a ground fault, if a ground fault exists before the frequency converter is powered on, at the moment of power-on, current may flow to ground from other branches (i.e., the main circuit current may not change), and the relevant detection devices and control systems are not powered on, making it difficult for the relevant detection devices to detect whether a ground fault exists in the frequency converter by detecting the current. In view of this, the present invention provides a frequency converter short-circuit protection circuit, a short-circuit detection method, and related equipment.
[0040] For details, please refer to Figure 1 In some embodiments of this application, the provided inverter short-circuit protection circuit specifically includes: three-phase input terminals (R, S, T in the figure), rectifier bridge circuit, ground short-circuit protection circuit, bus capacitor circuit, ground short-circuit detection circuit, braking circuit, inverter bridge circuit, control circuit, short-circuit detection circuit, and three-phase output terminals (U, V, W in the figure).

The braking circuit includes: a seventh diode D7 and a seventh switch Q7. This circuit actively discharges energy when the bus voltage is too high, preventing overvoltage damage to the inverter. The inverter bridge circuit includes: a first switch Q1. The second switch Q2, the third switch Q3, the fourth switch Q4, the fifth switch Q5, and the sixth switch Q6 form the inverter bridge circuit, which is mainly used to convert the DC power output from the bus capacitor circuit into AC power that meets the actual working requirements. The short-circuit detection circuit is connected to the three-phase output terminal and is mainly used to detect the current at the output terminal of the inverter when the inverter is powered on, so as to perform short-circuit detection (including non-to-ground short-circuit detection and ground short-circuit detection) on the inverter. The controller is electrically connected to the ground short-circuit detection circuit and is used to perform ground short-circuit processing on the inverter based on the detection results obtained by the ground short-circuit detection circuit.
[0043] In this circuit, the positive terminal of the first bus capacitor C1 is connected to the positive output terminal of the rectifier bridge circuit, and the negative terminal of the first bus capacitor C1 is connected to the positive terminal of the second bus capacitor C2. One end of the first switch PLY1 and one end of the first resistor R1 are connected to the negative input terminal of the rectifier bridge circuit.

[0044] To better understand how the embodiments of this application implement ground short-circuit protection for the frequency converter based on the ground short-circuit protection circuit and the ground short-circuit detection circuit, please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figure 2The short circuit to ground in the frequency converter mainly occurs at the three-phase output terminal. For example, if a short circuit to ground occurs at the U-phase output terminal of the three-phase output terminal (i.e., a PE short circuit occurs, Protective Earthing), specifically, if the frequency converter is powered on again after a short circuit to ground, the main short circuit path (current flow) in the frequency converter circuit is usually divided into two paths. The first short circuit path to ground is (corresponding to the positive half-cycle of the input AC current, the black arrow part in the figure): three-phase input terminal → positive output terminal of rectifier bridge circuit → bus capacitor circuit → second switch PLY2 → body diode of fourth switch Q4 → PE terminal (grounded); the second short circuit path to ground is (corresponding to the negative half-cycle of the input AC current, the gray arrow part in the figure): PE terminal → body diode of first switch Q1 → bus capacitor circuit → first resistor R1 → negative input terminal of rectifier bridge circuit → three-phase input terminal. Among them, the first resistor R1 has a relatively large resistance value. Before the inverter is powered on, the first switch PLY1 and the second switch PLY2 are in the open state. If the inverter already has a short circuit to ground, when the inverter is powered on, the current of the first short circuit path to ground is cut off because the second switch PLY2 is in the open state. The related devices of the short circuit path to ground will not be damaged due to the short circuit to ground. In addition, due to the presence of the first resistor R1 (this resistor is set to a large resistance, and the specific resistance value can be determined based on the rated current of the related devices and the rated voltage of the inverter), the current of the second short circuit path to ground is limited to an acceptable current level for the related devices. The related devices of the short circuit path to ground will not be damaged due to the short circuit to ground.
[0045] It is understandable that, apart from the U-phase output terminal of the three-phase output terminal experiencing a short circuit to ground, if the other two phase output terminals of the three-phase output terminal experience a short circuit to ground, this short circuit protection circuit can also provide short circuit protection to the inverter when a short circuit to ground fault occurs.
[0046] In the above circuit setup, the current path to ground short circuit is cut off or limited by the first switch PLY1, the second switch PLY2, and the first resistor R1, which can effectively ensure that the relevant components of the frequency converter are not damaged by short circuit. Furthermore, it introduces few additional circuit components, does not increase the circuit burden of the frequency converter, is easy to implement, simple, and efficient. In addition, the use of a resistor to limit the current in the second short circuit path to ground can facilitate the charging of the bus capacitor by the rectifier bridge circuit, ensuring that the working efficiency of the frequency converter is not affected when ground protection is implemented.
[0047] Furthermore, based on the aforementioned ground short-circuit protection circuit, some embodiments of this application also provide a corresponding ground short-circuit detection circuit. One end of the ground short-circuit detection circuit is connected to one end of the second switch PLY2 of the ground short-circuit protection circuit, and the other end of the ground short-circuit detection circuit is connected to the other end of the second switch PLY2 of the ground short-circuit protection circuit. The ground short-circuit detection circuit can detect the voltage across the second switch PLY2, thereby detecting whether the inverter has a ground short-circuit fault based on the voltage across the second switch PLY2. Specifically, when the inverter is fault-free and the second switch PLY2 is not closed, when the inverter is powered on, there will be a standard voltage value when the voltage across the second switch PLY2 is detected. If the inverter has a short circuit to ground (i.e., grounding in the current path, affecting the voltage across the second switch PLY2), and the second switch PLY2 is not closed, the inverter will detect the voltage across the second switch PLY2 when powered on. This voltage will be abnormal. Therefore, the short circuit to ground detection circuit can determine whether the inverter has a short circuit to ground based on the voltage across the second switch PLY2 and output the corresponding detection result. If the detection result obtained by the short circuit to ground detection circuit is that no short circuit to ground has occurred, the first switch PLY1 and the second switch PLY2 can be closed to enable the inverter to operate normally. If the detection result obtained by the short circuit to ground detection circuit is that a short circuit to ground has occurred, a short circuit to ground fault alarm can be triggered.
[0048] Based on the above-mentioned ground short circuit detection circuit, the voltage characteristics of the second switch PLY2 of the ground short circuit protection circuit can be fully utilized to quickly detect whether the frequency converter has experienced a ground short circuit, thereby outputting the corresponding ground short circuit fault detection result, and performing corresponding operations based on the detection result, thereby ensuring the safe operation of the frequency converter.
[0049] Furthermore, based on the above, it can be understood that in other embodiments of this application, the ground short-circuit protection circuit and the ground short-circuit detection module can also be set in other locations. For example, the first switch PLY1 and the first resistor R1 can be set between the positive output terminal of the rectifier bridge circuit and the first bus capacitor C1, while the second switch PLY2 can be set between the first bus capacitor C1 and the seventh diode D7. Specifically, one end of the first switch PLY1 and one end of the first resistor R1 are connected to the positive output terminal of the rectifier bridge circuit; the other end of the first switch PLY1, the other end of the first resistor R1, one end of the ground short-circuit detection module, and the second... One end of switch PLY2 is connected to the positive terminal of the first bus capacitor C1 in the bus capacitor circuit; the other end of the second switch PLY2 and the other end of the short-circuit detection module to ground are connected to the cathode of the seventh diode D7 (which can be equivalent to connecting to the negative input terminal of the rectifier bridge circuit); the first switch PLY1 and the first resistor R1 are usually placed between the rectifier bridge circuit and the bus capacitor circuit (either on the upper or lower side between them), and the second switch PLY2 can be placed on the same side as the first switch PLY1 and the first resistor R1. Its position can be adjusted according to actual needs to ensure that the circuits of the two short-circuit paths to ground mentioned above are switched or restricted.
[0050] Furthermore, it is understood that the first switch and the second switch mentioned above can be relay switches, thyristor switches, MOSFET switches, or related circuits or devices with switching functions, and no limitation is made here.
[0051] Further, see Figure 3 This application embodiment also provides a short-circuit detection method for a frequency converter, which can be applied to the above-mentioned short-circuit protection circuit of the frequency converter. The short-circuit detection method for the frequency converter includes:
[0052] 301. Before powering on the frequency converter, disconnect the first and second switches of the short-circuit protection circuit to ground;
[0053] Before powering on the frequency converter, disconnecting the first and second switches of the ground short-circuit protection circuit ensures that even if a ground short-circuit fault occurs when the frequency converter is powered on, there will be no large current that could damage the relevant components.
[0054] 302. After the frequency converter is powered on, the control ground short circuit detection circuit detects the voltage across the second switch;
[0055] If the inverter has a short circuit to ground fault after being powered on, the voltage across the second switch will be abnormal. You can determine whether the inverter has a short circuit to ground fault by detecting the voltage across the second switch.
[0056] 303. Based on the voltage across the second switch, determine whether the frequency converter has a short circuit to ground fault;
[0057] Whether the frequency converter has a short circuit to ground fault can be determined by detecting the voltage across the second switch and comparing it with a standard voltage.
[0058] 304. If a short circuit to ground fault occurs in the frequency converter, a short circuit to ground fault alarm will be triggered;
[0059] If the voltage is abnormal and inconsistent with the standard voltage, it indicates that the inverter has a short circuit to ground fault. At this time, a short circuit to ground fault alarm can be triggered, thereby prompting relevant operators to carry out corresponding repairs.
[0060] 305. If the inverter does not experience a short circuit to ground, then activate the first and second switches to allow the inverter to operate normally.
[0061] If the voltage is consistent with the standard voltage, it indicates that the inverter has not experienced a short circuit to ground. The first and second switches are then activated to ensure that the normal current path of the inverter is not switched or restricted, so that the inverter can operate normally.
[0062] The above control method is simple and easy to implement, and can ensure that the inverter will not be damaged by a short circuit to ground when powered on, thus ensuring the safe operation of the inverter.
[0063] In addition, after the inverter is running normally, the short-circuit detection module in this embodiment can detect the current status of each output terminal of the inverter during operation, so as to provide timely short-circuit protection for the inverter when a non-to-ground short circuit or a ground short circuit occurs.
