[0001] This invention relates to the field of offshore wind power DC transmission technology, and in particular to an offshore wind power true bipolar hybrid DC transmission system and control method based on substation interconnection. Background Technology

[0002] With the acceleration of my country's energy transition, offshore wind power is rapidly moving towards large-scale, concentrated development in deep-sea areas. For long-distance, high-capacity offshore wind power transmission, flexible DC transmission technology based on voltage source converters (VSCs), especially modular multilevel converters (MMCs), has become the mainstream engineering solution due to its ability to power passive networks (black start) and its advantages in active and reactive power decoupling control. To achieve lightweight and compact offshore converter stations, academia and industry have proposed using diode rectifiers (DRs) to replace part or all of the MMCs. DRs utilize uncontrollable diode valve groups for natural commutation, offering technical advantages such as extremely high power density, low cost, low operating losses, and high reliability.

[0003] However, for asymmetric true bipolar systems with strong coupling, including "DR+MMC parallel connection", due to the uncontrollable characteristics of DR, the smooth black start timing logic of the system from "passive to active" lacks cross-site coordination, which can easily generate severe inrush current at the moment when DR is naturally turned on, thus reducing the safety of the equipment. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention provides a true bipolar hybrid DC transmission system and control method for offshore wind power based on substation interconnection. It can solve the problem that in the existing true bipolar system, due to the lack of cross-station coordination, a severe excitation inrush current will be generated at the moment of natural conduction of DR during black start, which reduces the safety of the equipment.

Furthermore, during the voltage build-up operation, the positive-pole offshore converter system controls the effective voltage value of the second AC bus to be lower than the preset critical cutoff threshold until the wind turbine is connected to the grid. After the wind turbine is connected to the grid, the effective value of the voltage is increased so that the diode rectifier will naturally conduct when the effective value of the voltage on the corresponding AC bus is not less than the preset critical cutoff threshold, thus completing the black start.

[0015] The embodiments of the present invention have the following beneficial effects: This invention provides a true bipolar hybrid DC transmission system and control method for offshore wind power based on substation interconnection. The offshore wind power true bipolar hybrid DC transmission system includes: an offshore converter system, an offshore DC interconnection line, and an onshore converter system; the offshore converter system includes: a positive offshore converter system and a negative offshore converter system; the positive offshore converter system and the negative offshore converter system are connected via the offshore DC interconnection line; the negative offshore converter system includes: a first modular multilevel converter and a first AC bus; the positive offshore converter system includes: a second modular multilevel converter, a second AC bus, and a diode rectifier; the offshore converter system is used to draw power from the onshore converter system during the black start phase to perform uncontrolled pre-charging of the internal sub-module capacitors of the modular multilevel converter; during the uncontrolled pre-charging... After charging is completed, the voltage of the AC bus is built up to achieve grid connection of the wind turbine. Specifically, when the offshore converter system is a negative-pole offshore converter system, the modular multilevel converter is the first modular multilevel converter, and the AC bus is the first AC bus. When the offshore converter system is a positive-pole offshore converter system, the modular multilevel converter is the second modular multilevel converter, and the AC bus is the second AC bus. During the voltage build-up process, the positive-pole offshore converter system controls the effective voltage value of the second AC bus to be lower than a preset critical cutoff threshold until the wind turbine is connected to the grid. The offshore converter system is also used to increase the effective voltage value after the wind turbine is connected to the grid, so that the diode rectifier naturally conducts when the effective voltage value of the corresponding AC bus is not less than the preset critical cutoff threshold, completing a black start. In this invention, a DC interconnection line is first used to connect the positive and negative offshore converter systems across stations, allowing the onshore converter system to simultaneously perform uncontrolled pre-charging of its internal submodule capacitors, thus providing a unified DC voltage foundation for the two offshore converter systems. Simultaneously, during voltage build-up, the effective voltage value of the second AC bus is forced to be lower than a preset critical cutoff threshold, ensuring that the diode rectifier remains reverse-cut off before the wind turbine is connected to the grid. It only naturally conducts after the wind turbine is connected, as the effective voltage value gradually increases. This conduction process is a smooth transition under load, without inrush current impact, greatly increasing the system's equipment safety. Attached Figure Description

[0030] See Figure 1 To address the issue that existing true bipolar systems suffer from severe inrush current during black start-up due to a lack of cross-site coordination, leading to reduced equipment safety at the moment of DR natural conduction, this invention provides an embodiment of a true bipolar hybrid DC transmission system for offshore wind power based on substation interconnection, comprising: The system comprises an offshore converter system, an offshore DC interconnection line 5, and an onshore converter system 4; the offshore converter system includes a positive offshore converter system 2 and a negative offshore converter system 1; the positive offshore converter system 2 and the negative offshore converter system 1 are connected via the offshore DC interconnection line 5; the negative offshore converter system 1 includes a first modular multilevel converter 14 and a first AC busbar 13; the positive offshore converter system 2 includes a second modular multilevel converter 25, a second AC busbar 23, and a diode rectifier 24; Specifically, the diode rectifier 24 is a high-capacity 12-pulse diode rectifier, and the second modular multilevel converter 25 is a low-capacity modular multilevel converter.

[0031] The offshore converter system is used to draw power from the onshore converter system 4 during the black start phase to perform uncontrolled pre-charging of the internal sub-module capacitors of the modular multilevel converter; after the uncontrolled pre-charging is completed, the voltage of the AC busbar is built up to achieve grid connection of the wind turbine; after the wind turbine is connected to the grid, the effective value of the voltage is increased so that the diode rectifier 24 will naturally conduct when the effective value of the voltage of the corresponding AC busbar is not less than the preset critical cutoff threshold, thus completing the black start; Specifically, during the black start phase, the onshore converter system 4 is started first, so that the second modular multilevel converter 25 in the positive pole offshore converter system 2, which is located in different geographical locations, and the first modular multilevel converter 14 in the negative pole offshore converter system 1 can draw power to complete the uncontrolled pre-charging of their internal sub-module capacitors.

[0032] Specifically, when the offshore converter system is a negative offshore converter system 1, the modular multilevel converter is a first modular multilevel converter 14, and the AC bus is a first AC bus 13; when the offshore converter system is a positive offshore converter system 2, the modular multilevel converter is a second modular multilevel converter 25, and the AC bus is a second AC bus 23. Furthermore, during the voltage build-up operation, the positive offshore converter system 2 controls the effective voltage value of the second AC bus 23 to be lower than the preset critical cutoff threshold until the wind turbine is connected to the grid. The offshore converter system is also used to increase the effective value of the voltage after the wind turbine is connected to the grid, so that the diode rectifier 24 will naturally conduct when the effective value of the voltage of the corresponding AC bus is not less than the preset critical cutoff threshold, thus completing the black start.

[0033] Specifically, during the voltage build-up operation, both the first modular multilevel converter 14 and the second modular multilevel converter 25 operate in a constant AC voltage and frequency (V / f) control mode. At this time, the offshore converter systems execute a voltage boosting sequence, smoothly increasing the voltage amplitude and frequency of their respective AC busbars according to a set slope until the wind turbine grid connection conditions are met. When both offshore converter systems meet the wind turbine grid connection conditions, wind turbine grid connection begins. For the positive offshore converter system 2, during the voltage build-up process, it is also necessary to control the effective voltage value of its corresponding second AC busbar 23 to be lower than a preset critical cutoff threshold to ensure that the diode rectifier 24 can maintain reverse cutoff during the black start phase.

[0034] It should be noted that the aforementioned preset critical cutoff threshold is determined based on the second DC output voltage of the positive electrode offshore converter system 2. Therefore, the condition that the effective voltage value of the second AC bus 23 must meet during the voltage build-up phase can be expressed by the following formula: In the formula, This indicates the effective voltage value of the second AC bus 23. This represents the second DC output voltage of the positive electrode marine converter system 2.

[0035] Specifically, after voltage establishment, it indicates that the first modular multilevel converter 14 and the second modular multilevel converter 25 have established a stable offshore AC grid. At this time, the wind turbines of the first offshore wind farm 11 and the second offshore wind farm 21 can be gradually connected to the grid and output stable active power. Subsequently, as the active power increases, the second modular multilevel converter 25 can control the effective voltage value of the second AC bus 23 to gradually increase until the natural conduction condition of the diode rectifier 24 is met, causing the diode rectifier 24 to conduct naturally. After the diode rectifier 24 conducts naturally, it connects in parallel with the second modular multilevel converter 25 to jointly undertake the power transmission task of the second offshore wind farm 21, completing the black start. The natural conduction condition of the diode rectifier 24 is as follows: Preferred, from Figure 1 As can be seen, this invention can fully adapt to the geographically dispersed nature of deep-sea wind energy resources. It sets up the positive electrode offshore converter system 2, the negative electrode offshore converter system 1, and their corresponding offshore wind farms using a site-specific, independent construction mode, effectively avoiding the engineering challenges of building a single giant converter platform. By introducing the offshore DC interconnection line 5, the electrical integrity of the true bipolar system is maintained while achieving a spatially distributed layout, significantly reducing the volume, weight, and construction cost of a single converter platform, greatly improving the flexibility and feasibility of project implementation.

[0036] Preferably, the present invention utilizes the active grid-connection characteristics of the small-capacity second modular multilevel converter 25 to solve the inherent defect of the traditional pure DR scheme in being unable to establish the initial AC voltage at sea, and realizes the autonomous black start and stable grid connection of offshore wind farms constructed at separate sites.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment, the negative electrode offshore converter system 1 further includes: The first offshore wind farm 11 and the first AC convergence submarine cable 12; The output end of the first offshore wind farm 11 is connected to the first AC busbar 13 via the first AC collecting submarine cable 12; The AC side of the first modular multilevel converter 14 is connected to the first AC bus 13; The positive DC terminal of the DC side of the first modular multilevel converter 14 is connected to the common point of the marine neutral line on the marine DC connection line 5, and the negative DC terminal of the DC side of the first modular multilevel converter 14 serves as the negative DC output terminal. Specifically, the first offshore wind farm 11 is connected to the first AC combiner bus 13, and the AC side of the first modular multilevel converter 14 is connected to the first AC combiner bus 13. On the DC side, the positive DC terminal of the first modular multilevel converter 14 is connected to the common point of the offshore neutral line, and the negative DC terminal serves as the negative DC output terminal.

[0038] The first offshore wind farm 11 is used to output active power after the wind turbines are connected to the grid; The first AC busbar cable 12 is used to integrate the active power output from the first offshore wind farm 11 and transmit it to the first AC busbar.

[0040] In another preferred embodiment, the positive electrode marine converter system 2 further includes: The second offshore wind farm 21 and the second AC convergence submarine cable 22; The output end of the second offshore wind farm 21 is connected to the second AC busbar 23 via the second AC collection submarine cable 22; The AC side of the diode rectifier 24 and the AC side of the second modular multilevel converter 25 are respectively connected to the second AC bus 23; The positive DC terminal of the diode rectifier 24 is connected to the positive DC terminal of the second modular multilevel converter 25 to form a positive DC output terminal; The DC negative terminal of the diode rectifier 24 and the DC negative terminal of the second modular multilevel converter 25 are both connected to the common point of the marine neutral line on the marine DC tie line 5. Specifically, the second offshore wind farm 21 is connected to the second AC busbar 23 via an AC collecting submarine cable. The AC side of the diode rectifier 24 and the AC side of the second modular multilevel converter 25 are connected in parallel to the second AC busbar 23. On the DC side, the positive DC terminal of the diode rectifier 24 is connected to the positive DC terminal of the second modular multilevel converter 25 to form a positive DC output terminal, and the negative DC terminal is connected to the common point of the offshore neutral line.

[0041] The second offshore wind farm 21 is used to output active power after the wind turbines are connected to the grid; The second AC busbar 22 is used to integrate the active power output from the second offshore wind farm 21 and transmit it to the second AC busbar.

[0042] It should be noted that the rated capacity of the second modular multilevel converter 25 is significantly smaller than the total installed capacity of the second offshore wind farm 21. It is used to provide AC voltage support and reactive power compensation, while the diode rectifier 24 undertakes the main task of active power transmission.

[0043] In this preferred embodiment, the second offshore wind farm 21 and the second AC collection submarine cable 22 in the positive offshore converter system 2 realize the output and collection of active power.

[0044] In another preferred embodiment, the marine converter system is further used for: Before performing voltage build-up operation on the AC bus, close the AC side circuit breaker of the first modular multilevel converter 14 to connect the first offshore wind farm 11 with the first modular multilevel converter 14. Close the AC side circuit breaker of the second modular multilevel converter 25 to connect the second offshore wind farm 21 with the second modular multilevel converter 25; Unlock the first modular multilevel converter 14 and the second modular multilevel converter 25 to generate voltage on the first AC bus 13 and the second AC bus 23.

[0045] Specifically, after the uncontrolled pre-charging is completed, the substation controllers inside the negative electrode offshore converter system 1 and the positive electrode offshore converter system 2 control the AC side circuit breakers corresponding to the first modular multilevel converter 14 and the second modular multilevel converter 25 to close, and at the same time control the first modular multilevel converter 14 and the second modular multilevel converter 25 to unlock.

[0046] In this preferred embodiment, before the pressure build-up operation is performed after the uncontrolled pre-charging of the offshore converter system is completed, the AC side circuit breakers corresponding to the first modular multilevel converter 14 are closed, and then the first modular multilevel converter 14 and the first modular multilevel converter 14 are unlocked.

[0047] In another preferred embodiment, it further includes: a true bipolar DC transmission network 3; Specifically, both the first modular multilevel converter 14 and the second modular multilevel converter 25 draw power from the land side through the true bipolar DC transmission network 3.

[0048] The true bipolar DC transmission network 3 includes: a positive DC line 31, a neutral return line 32, and a negative DC line 33. The positive DC line 31 is connected to the positive DC output terminal of the positive offshore converter system 2; The negative DC line 33 is connected to the negative DC output terminal of the negative offshore converter system 1. The neutral line return line 32 is connected to the marine neutral line common point and the onshore converter system 4, respectively. Specifically, the positive DC line 31 and the negative DC line 33 are respectively connected to the corresponding polarity terminals of the marine and onshore converter systems 4, and the neutral line return line 32 is connected to the common point of the marine neutral line and the onshore neutral point.

[0049] The negative DC line 33 is used to transmit the active power corresponding to the first offshore wind farm 11 to the onshore converter system 4; The positive DC line 31 is used to transmit the active power corresponding to the second offshore wind farm 21 to the onshore converter system 4; The neutral return line 32 is used to provide a current loop.

[0050] Preferably, considering that the true bipolar hybrid DC transmission system for offshore wind power proposed in this invention adopts a true bipolar main connection method, in the true bipolar DC transmission network 3, the neutral return line 32 connects the neutral point of the offshore converter system and the neutral point of the onshore converter system 4, providing independent current return paths for the positive and negative poles. When there is an imbalance in the transmitted active power between the positive offshore converter system 2 and the negative offshore converter system 1, the unbalanced DC current generated between the poles directly flows back to the onshore neutral point via the neutral return line 32, achieving complete decoupling of the positive and negative poles in terms of control and operation. This structure avoids the influence of unbalanced current on the voltage regulation of the other pole, achieving complete decoupling of the positive and negative poles in terms of control and operation.

[0051] Preferably, the structure of the true bipolar hybrid DC transmission system for offshore wind power enables fault isolation and redundant operation: when a single-pole ground fault occurs on the positive DC line 31, the positive offshore converter system 2 is locked out. At this time, the negative offshore converter system 1 transmits power to the land through the negative DC line 33, and its return current returns to the offshore side through the neutral return line 32. Due to the operating characteristics of the true bipolar structure, the overvoltage or overcurrent generated by the positive fault will not couple to the negative system, thereby ensuring that the negative offshore wind farm can continue to output full active power without interference, achieving uninterrupted power supply support at the system level.

[0052] Preferably, by employing a true bipolar topology in conjunction with the neutral return line 32, the positive and negative poles of the offshore wind power true bipolar hybrid DC transmission system possess a completely independent operating foundation at the electrical level. In the event of a DC unipolar ground fault, the faulty pole can be promptly isolated, while the healthy pole can continue to operate at rated capacity using the neutral return line 32 as a current return path. This design ensures that even under extreme operating conditions, the entire system can retain at least 50% of its active power transmission capacity, significantly improving the operational robustness of the transmission channel.

The AC side of the positive onshore modular multilevel converter 41 and the AC side of the negative onshore modular multilevel converter 42 are both connected to the onshore AC main grid 44 through the onshore AC bus 43. Specifically, the DC side of the positive onshore modular multilevel converter 41 and the DC side of the negative onshore modular multilevel converter 42 are connected in series. The common connection point of their DC series connection forms the onshore neutral point and is connected to the neutral return line 32. The positive DC terminal of the positive onshore modular multilevel converter 41 is connected to the positive DC line 31, and the negative DC terminal of the negative onshore modular multilevel converter 42 is connected to the negative DC line 33. The AC sides of the positive onshore modular multilevel converter 41 and the negative onshore modular multilevel converter 42 are respectively connected to the onshore AC main grid 44.

[0055] The positive onshore modular multilevel converter 41 is used to invert the active power transmitted by the positive DC line 31 from DC to AC. The negative pole onshore modular multilevel converter 42 is used to invert the active power transmitted by the negative pole DC line 33 from DC to AC. The onshore AC bus 43 is used to collect the active power after inverter and transmit it to the onshore AC main grid 44; The onshore AC main power grid 44 is used to receive all the active power after inversion.

[0061] Preferably, the above-mentioned grid connection conditions for wind turbines are as follows: for voltage amplitude, the voltage amplitude at the grid connection point is required to be stable within ±5% of the rated voltage amplitude. For example, when the rated voltage amplitude of the first AC bus 13 or the second AC bus 23 is 66kV, the voltage amplitude needs to be maintained within the range of [62.7, 69.3]kV.

[0062] Regarding frequency, the grid connection frequency is required to be stable within ±0.2Hz of the rated frequency. For example, when the rated frequency is 50Hz, the frequency needs to be maintained within the range of [49.8, 50.2]Hz.

[0063] It should be noted that for the positive electrode offshore converter system 2, during voltage build-up, it is necessary to constantly monitor whether the effective voltage value of the second AC bus 23 is less than the preset critical cutoff threshold. If not, the control command of the second modular multilevel converter 25 needs to be adjusted to limit the effective voltage value of the second AC bus 23 from being less than the preset critical cutoff threshold, so as to ensure that the diode rectifier 24 remains in reverse cutoff state during voltage build-up.

The modules described as separate components may or may not be physically separate, and the components shown as modules may or may not be physical modules; that is, they may be located in one place or distributed across multiple network units. Some or all of the modules can be selected to achieve the purpose of this embodiment according to actual needs. Furthermore, in the accompanying drawings of the device embodiments provided by this invention, the connection relationship between modules indicates that they have a communication connection, which can be implemented as one or more communication buses or signal lines.

Furthermore, during the voltage build-up operation, the positive offshore converter system 2 controls the effective voltage value of the second AC bus 23 to be lower than the preset critical cutoff threshold until the wind turbine is connected to the grid. Specifically, during the black start phase, the offshore converter system draws power from the onshore converter system 4 on the land side to complete uncontrolled pre-charging, and then connects the wind turbine to the grid through pressure building operation.

[0097] Step S102: Increase the effective voltage value so that the diode rectifier 24 will naturally conduct when the effective voltage value of the corresponding AC bus is not less than the preset critical cutoff threshold, thus completing the black start.

[0098] Specifically, after the wind turbine is connected to the grid, the effective voltage value of the second AC bus 23 is gradually increased, which allows the diode rectifier 24 to conduct naturally, thereby realizing the black start of the system.

[0099] The above are preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications are also considered to be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
