Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of power electronic converter control technology, specifically to a three-port flyback DC-AC converter and its modulation method. Background Technology
[0002] With the widespread integration of distributed energy resources, the reactive power demand of the power grid has become more complex and variable. Therefore, countries and regions worldwide have set higher standards and specifications for grid-connected technologies, among which power factor regulation has become one of the important requirements for grid-connected inverters. International distributed power grid-connected standards such as California's Rule 21 and IEEE-1547, as well as my country's national and industry standards for grid-connected inverters such as NB / T32004-2018, all clearly define the power factor regulation capabilities of grid-connected inverters.
[0003] Flyback topologies are widely used in various quasi-single-stage grid-connected inverters due to their advantages such as simple structure, fewer components, convenient control, and electrical isolation, forming the core DC / AC conversion unit. In these quasi-single-stage inverters, energy transfer is generally unidirectional, flowing from the DC side to the grid side.
[0004] However, traditional unidirectional grid-connected inverters struggle to achieve bidirectional energy flow and power factor regulation. Taking flyback DC / AC converters as an example, the inability to achieve power factor regulation stems primarily from two fundamental limitations: first, the output diodes of flyback converters possess unidirectional conductivity, meaning that the energy stored in the transformer can only be transferred unidirectionally to the grid; second, to reduce costs, the subsequent power frequency inversion bridge often uses thyristors. While the unidirectional conductivity of thyristors allows them to complete the power frequency commutation of the output current, it blocks the path for power to be fed back from the grid side.
[0005] Due to the unidirectional characteristics of diodes and thyristors, traditional flyback DC / AC converters exhibit strict unidirectionality in energy transmission and cannot achieve power factor regulation. Furthermore, their traditional control strategies primarily focus on the stable transmission of active power, failing to control reactive power. Summary of the Invention

[0044] In this embodiment, the specific principle of the hybrid modulation method is as follows: According to such Figure 19 The control approach shown involves sampling the grid-side voltage to obtain the corresponding voltage phase. θ And by determining the power factor PF and the output rated apparent power. S ref Obtain the phase difference between the output voltage and current φ and the corresponding grid-side current reference value i g By determining the direction of instantaneous power transmission, the system can be divided into two modes: (1) unity power factor transmission mode and (2) non-unity power factor transmission mode.
[0045] If the transmission mode is unity power factor, the instantaneous output power during the entire power frequency cycle is... P o >0 indicates that the system is operating in the active phase, the modulation strategy is active modulation, and the mode is the DC / AC conversion branch operating mode.
[0046] If the transmission mode is not unity power factor, the system operates in three modes based on the instantaneous output power: DC / AC converter branch operating alone, AC / DC converter branch operating alone, and a mixed operating mode of DC / AC converter branch and AC / DC converter branch. Instantaneous output power P o When the output power is greater than 0, the system operates in the active power phase, using an active power modulation strategy, and the mode is the DC / AC converter branch operating alone mode; instantaneous output power P o When the power factor is less than 0, the system operates in two modes: a mode where the AC / DC conversion branch operates alone, and a mode where the DC / AC conversion branch and the AC / DC conversion branch operate in a hybrid mode. The system operates in the reactive power phase and the hybrid mode phase, respectively, corresponding to reactive power modulation and hybrid modulation strategies. This modulation strategy effectively ensures power factor accuracy and output power quality. Specifically: (1) When the system operates in unity power factor transmission mode, i.e., PF=1, the instantaneous output power during the entire power frequency cycle P o >0, the system operates in the active power phase, and the mode is the DC / AC conversion branch operating alone mode: the system's switching transistors and thyristors are driven within the power frequency cycle as follows: Figure 20 As shown in the left figure, t 0~ t 1 and t 2~ t All three stages are in the DC / AC conversion branch operation stage. t 1~ t Phase 2 is the dead time of the system commutation.

The dead time is set to prevent the bridge arm from being shot-through during the commutation process of the power frequency inversion bridge. PF=1 working condition t 2~ t Stage 3: At this point, the grid-side voltage... v g and output current i g All are less than 0, i.e., instantaneous output power P o If the value is greater than 0, the system operates in the active power phase, and the system mode is the DC / AC converter branch operating alone mode.

S w Select a modulation strategy. S w It can perform both fixed-frequency modulation and variable-frequency modulation. Fixed-frequency modulation simply maintains a constant switching frequency, while variable-frequency modulation requires valley selection and calculation of the switching frequency and duty cycle to ensure the main switching transistor... S w exist tThe valley bottom conduction is achieved in 3 moments.
[0051] The specific valley selection logic is: to select the main switch transistor. S w The switching frequency is fixed at a certain value (taking an interrupt frequency of 150kHz as an example), and the total inductance of the primary side of the transformer in the system is... and the resonant capacitance value in the system C tot The flyback converter is obtained in t 2~ t 3-stage resonance period ,as well as t 2~ t Total duration of the 3 phases t off2 (θ); Calculate the total duration t off2 (θ) includes the resonant period t r The number of valleys is counted and rounded to the nearest integer. k ( k =1,2,3,…,N), different valley numbers are obtained based on the instantaneous power, and the corresponding duty cycle and switching frequency are obtained through the above calculation formula.
