Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of power supply control technology, and in particular to a power supply control system. Background Technology
[0002] When a power supply for a large load is in operation, if there is a sudden load change such as load disconnection or cessation of operation, the current on the load side will drop sharply. Since the current on the DC bus side takes time to slowly decrease, a large power difference will be generated on both sides of the load-side converter, that is, between the load and the DC bus, which can easily damage the electronic components inside the load-side converter.
[0003] Traditional power supply overcurrent and overpower protection generally only consider the risk of adapter overload caused by excessive current consumed by the load, but does not consider the impact of the instantaneous drop in current on the load side after a large load is cut off, which leads to power overshoot on the DC bus side and affects the converter. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a power supply control system.
[0005] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0010] The logic control and protection module generates additional control signals based on the DC bus current and load-side current values acquired by the signal acquisition circuit.
[0011] The control pulse generation module generates a trigger signal based on the power deviation between the DC bus power and the load-side power acquired by the signal acquisition circuit. Combined with the additional control signal output by the logic control and protection module, it outputs a control signal for the unloading circuit to control the switching of the unloading circuit.

After the delay, the falling edge trigger delay unit inputs an enable signal to the enable terminal of the hysteresis comparator.

[0025] Figure 3 This is a circuit diagram of the control pulse generation module of the present invention. Detailed Implementation
[0026] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. These embodiments are based on the technical solution of the present invention and provide detailed implementation methods and specific operating procedures. However, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.
[0027] Example 1
[0028] This invention provides a power supply auxiliary control system, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes an unloading unit for dissipating excess energy; a signal acquisition circuit for detecting power and current on both sides of the load-side converter; a logic control and protection module for generating additional control signals based on the DC bus current and load-side current values acquired by the signal acquisition circuit; and a control pulse generation module for generating trigger signals based on the power deviation between the DC bus power and load-side power acquired by the signal acquisition circuit, and combining the unloading control signals output by the logic control and protection module to output unloading circuit control signals.
[0029] The unloading unit is used to handle the surplus power of the AC system in the event of a fault in the AC system. The unloading unit includes at least a thyristor, and the positive terminal of the thyristor is connected to the positive terminal of the DC bus.
[0030] The signal acquisition circuit includes current transformers (CTs) and voltage transformers (PTs) installed on the load side and the DC bus side, which are used to acquire the current and power on both sides of the converter on the load side.
[0031] like Figure 2As shown, the logic control and protection module includes a subtractor, a hysteresis comparator, a differentiating circuit, and a falling edge triggered delay. The subtractor calculates the difference between the DC bus current and the load-side current acquired by the signal acquisition circuit, and then inputs this difference to the hysteresis comparator. The hysteresis comparator compares this difference with set upper and lower limits. The load-side current, after passing through the differentiating circuit, has its rate of change obtained; its output is delayed by a falling edge triggered delay before being input to the enable terminal of the hysteresis comparator. When the load is disconnected, the load-side current drops rapidly, and an enable signal is output to start the hysteresis comparator comparison. After the current stops decreasing, the comparison stops after a short delay, ensuring the smoothness of DC bus power control. When the current difference is within the set reference difference, the additional signal Ctrl is "0"; when the current difference exceeds the set reference difference, the additional control signal Ctrl is output as "1" and input to the control pulse generation module to generate the unloading circuit control signal.
[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, the control pulse generation module includes a subtractor, a proportional-integral controller, a pulse generator, and a controlled switch. The power deviation between the load-side converter and the input signal acquisition circuit is input to the proportional-integral controller to calculate the duty cycle D. The pulse generator then generates a trigger signal based on the duty cycle D. The input to position 1 of the controlled switch is the generated trigger signal, and the input to position 2 is 0. The controlled switch receives an additional control signal Ctrl generated by the logic control and protection module. When the additional control signal Ctrl is "1", it outputs the trigger signal generated by the pulse generator; when the additional signal Ctrl is "0", the additional control output duty cycle is 0, thus obtaining the unloading circuit control signal.
[0033] The drive output module is a drive amplification unit that amplifies the trigger pulse output from the voltage regulation and pulse generation module to drive the insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) device in the unloading circuit and control the connection and disconnection of the unloading resistor.
[0034] When the power supply is in normal operating condition, the additional control circuit is locked; when the load is disconnected, the additional control circuit is activated, based on the power deviation ΔP = P on both sides of the converter. A -P R The duty cycle D = k is calculated using proportional-integral operations. p (P A -P R )+k i ∫(P A -P R )dt, 0≤D≤1, k p k i These are the proportional coefficient and the integral coefficient, respectively. When the current I on both sides of the converter... R and IA When the difference is less than the set value, the additional control exits and the power supply returns to normal control.
[0035] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above. It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make numerous modifications and variations based on the concept of the present invention without creative effort. Therefore, all technical solutions that can be obtained by those skilled in the art based on the concept of the present invention through logical analysis, reasoning, or limited experimentation on the basis of existing technology should be within the scope of protection defined by the claims.
