Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of power system stability control technology, and particularly relates to a series capacitor compensation damping circuit device and method. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of long-distance, high-capacity AC / DC hybrid power grids, series capacitor compensation devices play a crucial role in improving the power transmission capacity and transient stability of transmission lines. To effectively suppress the subsynchronous resonance phenomenon caused by the interaction between series capacitors and line inductance and to limit transient overcurrent impacts, damping circuits composed of reactors and resistors are commonly used as the core protection measure in engineering practice. However, traditional damping circuit designs mainly rely on passive devices with fixed parameters, whose physical characteristics exhibit significant dynamic evolution under complex operating conditions. Specifically, broadband harmonic distortion currents in transmission lines can induce high-frequency skin effects, leading to uneven current distribution within the damping resistor, causing localized severe temperature rises, and resulting in nonlinear drift of resistivity with temperature changes. Simultaneously, the DC bias magnetization effect generated by the fundamental current and continuous heat accumulation superimpose each other, causing the reactor core material to gradually approach deep saturation. When the physical temperature approaches the Curie temperature of ferromagnetic materials, the spontaneous magnetization intensity irreversibly decays, causing a sharp decrease in dynamic inductance. This nonlinear interaction of multiple physics fields, formed by the deep coupling of electric, thermal, and magnetic fields, causes a severe shift in the inherent resonant frequency of the damping circuit, resulting in a significant reduction in the system's characteristic damping ratio below the safety threshold. Existing conventional damping control technologies simply treat resistance and inductance parameters as static constants. They cannot detect in real time the dynamic modulation effects of harmonic current spectrum distribution, ambient temperature changes, and thermal accumulation processes on physical parameters, nor do they possess the ability to implement precise feedforward compensation during detuning transients. This leads to the failure of resonance suppression functions, thereby posing a significant threat to the safe and stable operation of critical power grid equipment. Summary of the Invention

[0007] A further technical solution, in step S4, the step of calculating the thermomagnetic coupling dynamic inductance value considering the spontaneous magnetization decay mechanism of the Curie temperature of the ferromagnetic material includes: setting the absolute saturation critical current value of the core at a reference temperature; constructing a saturation critical point decay function based on the degree to which the real-time physical temperature of thermal equilibrium approaches the Curie temperature of the reactor core material, so that the real-time effective saturation critical current value decreases nonlinearly with the increase of the real-time physical temperature of thermal equilibrium; using the ratio of the effective value of the total broadband current of the line to the real-time effective saturation critical current value as the saturation depth characteristic variable, establishing a magnetic saturation envelope function that smoothly transitions between the unsaturated core inductance value and the hollow inductance value, obtaining the thermomagnetic coupling dynamic inductance value, and the thermomagnetic coupling dynamic inductance value decays towards the hollow inductance value with the increase of the saturation depth characteristic variable.
[0008] A further technical solution, in step S5, the step of calculating the precise characteristic damping ratio of the system includes: based on the typical second-order oscillation response characteristics of the damping circuit, using the dynamic AC resistance value at the subsynchronous resonance target frequency as the positive gain parameter, the rated capacitance value of the series compensation capacitor as the positive frequency deviation parameter, and the thermomagnetic coupling dynamic inductance value as the negative frequency deviation parameter; defining the precise characteristic damping ratio of the system as a characteristic state parameter that is directly proportional to the dynamic AC resistance value and directly proportional to the square root of the ratio of the rated capacitance value and the thermomagnetic coupling dynamic inductance value.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0012] 1. Based on the first-principles mechanism of the skin effect, Newton's law of cooling, and the spontaneous magnetization decay mechanism of the Curie temperature of ferromagnetic materials, this invention realizes real-time and high-precision calculation of the drift of the "electric-thermal-magnetic" multi-field coupling parameters of damping elements under complex working conditions, eliminating the problem of damping characteristic evaluation distortion caused by the traditional control technology that simply regards the resistance and inductance parameters as static constants.
[0013] 2. The solution dynamically compares the real-time calculated system's precise characteristic damping ratio with the target safe damping ratio, which can accurately deduce the amount of feedforward active compensation impedance injection. Combined with proportional compensation and differential decoupling voltage in phase superposition to generate converter control commands, it provides the system with flexible and precise active feedforward damping reconfiguration.
[0014] 3. This invention can quickly respond and actively compensate for the damping ratio dropped due to parameter detuning of the damping circuit under extreme conditions such as deep saturation of the line under high current bias and severe local temperature rise in high frequency skin effect, thus preventing the failure of the resonance suppression function and effectively ensuring the stable operation of long-distance power transmission systems.

[0016] Figure 2This invention provides a structural block diagram of a series capacitor compensation damping circuit device. Detailed Implementation
[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.
[0018] The specific implementation of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0019] The series capacitor compensation damping circuit method refers to a technical solution in power systems that uses series capacitors to compensate transmission lines and combines this with a damping circuit to suppress instability phenomena such as subsynchronous resonance. This method aims to improve the stability and transmission capacity of power systems.
[0020] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a series capacitor compensation damping circuit method, which includes the following steps:
[0021] S1. Obtain the effective values of each harmonic current of the line and the real-time ambient base temperature for the current control cycle, and retrieve the physical temperature from the previous control cycle. The effective value of each harmonic current of the line refers to the effective value of harmonic currents of various frequencies generated by factors such as nonlinear loads in the power line, in addition to the fundamental current. These harmonic currents generate additional losses and heat when flowing in the damping elements. The physical temperature refers to the actual operating temperature of key components in the damping circuit (such as damping resistors, reactor cores, etc.). This temperature directly affects the electrical parameters of the components.
[0022] S2. Based on the first-principle mechanism of the skin effect, calculate the dynamic AC resistance value modulated by physical temperature at the target frequency. The first-principle mechanism of the skin effect refers to the phenomenon that when a high-frequency alternating current passes through a conductor, the current tends to concentrate on the surface of the conductor. This effect causes the effective resistance of the conductor to increase with increasing frequency, and its degree is affected by factors such as conductor material, geometry, and temperature. The dynamic AC resistance value refers to the AC resistance value of the damping element in the damping circuit. This value is not fixed but changes in real time with factors such as current frequency and element physical temperature.
[0023] S3. The dynamic AC resistance values at each harmonic frequency are power-coupled with the corresponding effective values of the harmonic currents in the line. Using Newton's law of cooling, the real-time physical temperature of the thermal equilibrium during the current control cycle is iteratively calculated. Newton's law of cooling is a fundamental law governing heat transfer between an object and its surrounding environment, describing the relationship between the object's heat dissipation rate and the temperature difference between the object and the environment. This law is commonly used to calculate the thermal equilibrium state of an object under specific conditions. The real-time physical temperature of the thermal equilibrium refers to the actual physical temperature exhibited by the damping circuit element when continuous heating and dissipation reach a dynamic equilibrium. This temperature is a key indicator for evaluating the component's operating state and parameter changes.
[0024] S4. Obtain the effective value of the broadband total current of the line. Based on the real-time physical temperature of the thermal balance and the effective value of the broadband total current of the line, calculate the thermomagnetic coupling dynamic inductance value considering the Curie temperature spontaneous magnetization decay mechanism of ferromagnetic materials. The Curie temperature spontaneous magnetization decay mechanism of ferromagnetic materials refers to the sharp decrease in the spontaneous magnetization intensity inside the ferromagnetic material when the temperature rises and approaches its Curie temperature, resulting in a significant decrease in the permeability of the material, which in turn affects the inductance value of the inductor element. The thermomagnetic coupling dynamic inductance value refers to the inductance value of the reactor element in the damping circuit. This value changes in real time due to the combined influence of factors such as the physical temperature of the element, the magnitude of the current flowing through it, and the magnetic properties of the core material.
[0025] S5. Based on the dynamic AC resistance value and the thermomagnetic coupling dynamic inductance value at the subsynchronous resonance target frequency, calculate the system's precise characteristic damping ratio. The subsynchronous resonance target frequency refers to the specific frequency point at which the power system may resonate within the subsynchronous frequency range. This frequency is an important reference for evaluating system stability. The system's precise characteristic damping ratio refers to the damping characteristic index of the power system at the subsynchronous resonance target frequency. This ratio reflects the system's ability to suppress oscillations, and its magnitude is directly related to the system's stability.
[0026] S6. When the system's precise characteristic damping ratio deviates from the preset target safe damping ratio, a transient voltage injection command is generated to drive the active converter, and adaptive damping reconfiguration is executed. The target safe damping ratio refers to the minimum damping ratio threshold preset to ensure the stable operation of the power system. When the actual system damping ratio is lower than this threshold, compensation measures need to be taken. An active converter is a power electronic device capable of actively controlling voltage or current output. In this method, the active converter is used to inject transient voltage to achieve active adjustment of damping characteristics. The transient voltage injection command refers to the command to control the active converter to inject voltage at a specific time and in a specific manner. This command is used to achieve rapid adjustment of the system's damping characteristics. Adaptive damping reconfiguration refers to a dynamic control strategy that restores the system's damping characteristics to a safe level by adjusting the damping loop parameters or injecting compensation amount in real time when the system's damping characteristics deviate from the preset safe range.
[0027] This embodiment provides a method for compensating a series capacitor damping circuit, specifically including the following steps:
[0028] In step S1, the effective values of each harmonic current of the line in the current control cycle and the real-time ambient temperature are obtained, and the physical temperature of the previous control cycle is retrieved.
[0029] Specifically, obtaining the effective values of each harmonic current in a power line can be achieved in several ways. For example, one approach involves installing current transformers on the power line to collect the line current signal into a data acquisition unit. Then, Fourier transform or digital filters are used to perform spectral analysis on the collected current signal to extract each harmonic component and calculate its effective value. Another approach is to use a wavelet transform-based method to perform multi-resolution decomposition of the line current signal, identify and separate harmonic components within different frequency ranges, and then calculate the effective value of each harmonic.
[0030] To obtain the real-time ambient baseline temperature, an ambient temperature sensor can be deployed near the damping loop device. This sensor periodically measures the surrounding air temperature and transmits the data to the control system. Alternatively, real-time temperature data for the area can be obtained from a weather station or regional environmental monitoring network and used as the ambient baseline temperature input.
[0031] To retrieve the physical temperature from the previous control cycle, a storage unit can be set up in the control system to store the calculated or measured physical temperature of the damping element at the end of each control cycle, and read this value from the storage unit at the beginning of the next control cycle. Alternatively, a temperature sensor can be installed on the surface of the damping element to monitor the element temperature in real time, and the instantaneous temperature value can be recorded at the end of each control cycle as the retrieval data for the next cycle. In particular, during the first control cycle of system initial operation, cold start, or control system initialization, since there is no historical iterative calculation data, the control system directly assigns the physical temperature from the previous control cycle to the currently acquired real-time ambient baseline temperature to ensure the smooth start of thermal balance iterative calculation and the tight closed loop of control logic.
[0032] In step S2, based on the first mechanism of the skin effect, the dynamic AC resistance value modulated by the physical temperature at the target frequency is calculated.
[0033] One way to calculate the dynamic AC resistance is by consulting a pre-established resistance-frequency-temperature lookup table. This lookup table is pre-calibrated based on experimental data or simplified models, and the corresponding dynamic AC resistance value is directly obtained from the table according to the current target frequency and physical temperature. Another approach is to estimate using an empirical formula. This empirical formula is based on a simplified physical model of the skin effect and temperature effect, and outputs an approximate dynamic AC resistance value by inputting the target frequency and physical temperature.
[0034] In step S3, the dynamic AC resistance value at each harmonic frequency is coupled with the corresponding effective value of the harmonic current of the line, and the real-time physical temperature of the thermal balance in the current control cycle is calculated iteratively using Newton's law of cooling.
[0035] One approach to calculating power coupling and thermal equilibrium temperature is to first calculate the heat loss generated by each harmonic current across the corresponding dynamic AC resistance, and then sum these losses to obtain the total heat generation power. Next, using a simplified thermal model that considers the component's heat capacity and the temperature difference with the environment, the thermal equilibrium temperature the component will eventually reach under the current heat generation power and ambient temperature is calculated through a stepwise approximation method. Another approach is to use a thermal network model based on the lumped parameter method. This model abstracts the damping component and its heat dissipation path into a series of thermal resistances and heat capacities. By solving the transient response of this thermal network under a given heat generation power and ambient temperature, the real-time physical temperature of the component is obtained iteratively.
[0036] In step S4, the effective value of the broadband total current of the line is obtained. Based on the real-time physical temperature of the thermal balance and the effective value of the broadband total current of the line, the dynamic inductance value of thermomagnetic coupling is calculated considering the spontaneous magnetization decay mechanism of the Curie temperature of the ferromagnetic material.
[0037] One way to obtain the RMS value of the broadband total current of a line is to perform broadband sampling of the line current signal and then directly calculate its RMS value over the entire bandwidth. Another way is to take the square root of the sum of the squares of the RMS values of each harmonic current to obtain the RMS value of the broadband total current of the line.
[0038] One approach to calculating the dynamic inductance of thermomagnetic coupling is to consult a pre-established inductance-current-temperature lookup table. This table is pre-calibrated based on experimental data or a simplified magnetic circuit model, and the corresponding dynamic inductance value is directly obtained from the table according to the current real-time physical temperature of thermal equilibrium and the effective value of the broadband total current of the line. Another approach is to use a simplified model based on hysteresis loop fitting. This model estimates the change in the permeability of the iron core by inputting current and temperature parameters, and then calculates the dynamic inductance value of the reactor.
[0039] In step S5, the precise characteristic damping ratio of the system is calculated based on the dynamic AC resistance value and the thermomagnetic coupling dynamic inductance value at the subsynchronous resonance target frequency.
[0040] One approach to calculating the precise characteristic damping ratio of a system is to utilize a simplified RLC series resonant circuit model. In this model, the damping circuit is equivalent to a combination of resistors, inductors, and capacitors. The system's damping ratio is then calculated using standard circuit theory formulas based on the parameters of this equivalent circuit. Another approach is to perform small-signal perturbation analysis on the system, measuring the system's response characteristics near the subsynchronous resonant target frequency, and estimating the system's damping ratio based on the decay rate of the response curve.
[0041] In step S6, when the precise characteristic damping ratio of the system deviates from the preset target safe damping ratio, a transient voltage injection command is generated to drive the active converter, and adaptive damping reconstruction is performed.
[0042] One way to determine if the damping ratio deviates is to directly compare the calculated precise characteristic damping ratio of the system with a preset target safe damping ratio. If the absolute value of the difference between the two exceeds a preset threshold, a deviation is considered to have occurred. Another way is to set a safe damping ratio range, and trigger a deviation judgment when the calculated damping ratio falls outside this range.
[0043] One way to generate transient voltage injection commands is to calculate the required compensation voltage amplitude and phase using a preset proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller based on the degree of deviation of the damping ratio, thereby generating the transient voltage injection command. Another approach is to use a fuzzy logic control-based method, generating the corresponding voltage injection command through a fuzzy inference mechanism based on the deviation and rate of change of the damping ratio.
[0044] One way to implement adaptive damping reconfiguration is to send the generated transient voltage injection command to the control unit of the active converter. The active converter then generates a corresponding voltage output based on the command and injects it into the damping loop to change the equivalent damping characteristics of the system. Another way is to adjust the control parameters of the active converter so that its output voltage or current can compensate for insufficient system damping, thereby achieving damping reconfiguration.
[0045] The following example will provide a more detailed explanation of the above technical solution:
[0046] Suppose a long-distance transmission line is equipped with a series capacitor compensation device and a damping circuit to suppress subsynchronous resonance. During a certain control cycle, due to the presence of a nonlinear load in the line, the line current contains abundant broadband harmonic components. Simultaneously, the ambient temperature may also change.
[0047] First, in step S1, the control system acquires the effective values of each harmonic current of the line in real time for the current control cycle. For example, it accurately measures and calculates the effective values of the fundamental, third, and fifth harmonic currents using current sensors and data processing units installed on the line. Simultaneously, an ambient temperature sensor deployed near the damping loop device provides the real-time ambient temperature. Furthermore, the system retrieves the physical temperature of the damping element calculated or measured in the previous control cycle from its internal memory as the initial condition for the current cycle's calculation.
[0048] Next, in step S2, based on the acquired physical temperature of the previous control cycle and the set subsynchronous resonance target frequency, the system calculates the dynamic AC resistance value of the damping element modulated by the physical temperature at the target frequency using the first-principles mechanism of the skin effect. For example, when the physical temperature increases, the resistivity of the damping element increases, and at the same time, the skin effect of the high-frequency current reduces the effective conductive cross-section, thereby causing a significant increase in the dynamic AC resistance value.
[0049] Subsequently, in step S3, the system performs power coupling between the dynamic AC resistance values at each harmonic frequency calculated in step S2 and the effective values of the corresponding harmonic currents obtained in step S1, to calculate the heat loss of the damping element at each harmonic frequency. After accumulating these losses, and combining them with Newton's law of cooling, the system iteratively calculates the real-time physical temperature of the thermal equilibrium for the current control cycle. This iterative process considers the dynamic balance between the element's own heat generation and heat dissipation to the environment, thus obtaining a component temperature closer to the actual temperature. For example, if the heat generation power exceeds the heat dissipation capacity, the component temperature will continue to rise until a new thermal equilibrium point is reached.
[0050] Further, in step S4, the system obtains the effective value of the broadband total current of the line, which reflects the overall current level flowing through the reactor. Based on the real-time physical temperature of thermal equilibrium calculated in step S3 and the effective value of the broadband total current of the line, the system considers the spontaneous magnetization decay mechanism of the Curie temperature of the ferromagnetic material and calculates the thermomagnetic coupling dynamic inductance value of the reactor. For example, when the broadband total current of the line is large, the reactor core may tend to saturate, leading to a decrease in inductance value; at the same time, if the component temperature is close to the Curie temperature of the core material, the spontaneous magnetization of the core will decay sharply, further aggravating the decrease in inductance value.
[0051] Then, in step S5, the system calculates the precise characteristic damping ratio of the current system based on the dynamic AC resistance value at the subsynchronous resonance target frequency calculated in step S2 and the thermomagnetic coupling dynamic inductance value calculated in step S4, combined with the rated capacitance value of the series compensation capacitor. This damping ratio is a key indicator for evaluating the subsynchronous resonance stability of the system.
[0052] Finally, in step S6, the system compares the calculated precise characteristic damping ratio of the system with the preset target safe damping ratio. If the precise characteristic damping ratio deviates from the target safe damping ratio, for example, below a safe threshold, the system immediately generates a transient voltage injection command to drive the active converter. This command instructs the active converter to inject a voltage of specific amplitude and phase to compensate for insufficient system damping, thereby performing adaptive damping reconstruction, raising the actual damping ratio of the system to a safe range, and effectively suppressing the occurrence of subsynchronous resonance.
[0053] Through the above steps, this method can sense the dynamic changes in resistance and inductance parameters in the damping circuit caused by the coupling of multiple physical fields such as "electricity-thermal-magnetism" in real time, and accurately evaluate the damping characteristics of the system based on these dynamic parameters. Then, active and adaptive compensation is performed through the active converter to ensure the stable operation of the system under complex operating conditions.
[0054] This application further proposes a step in step S2, namely, calculating the dynamic AC resistance value modulated by physical temperature at the target frequency, which includes: constructing a resistivity temperature compensation term based on the ambient baseline temperature to characterize the intrinsic resistance drift of the damping element material as the physical temperature changes; extracting the geometric dimension parameters, target frequency, and permeability of the damping element to construct a high-frequency skin depth coefficient; performing a nonlinear mapping between the high-frequency skin depth coefficient and the resistivity temperature compensation term, so that the output dynamic AC resistance value is positively correlated with the change in physical temperature and monotonically increases, and positively correlated with the change in target frequency and nonlinearly increases; the specific calculation formula for calculating the dynamic AC resistance value is as follows:
[0055]
[0056] in: This represents the dynamic AC resistance value modulated by physical temperature at the target frequency. This represents the equivalent conductive spread length of the damping element; This represents the diameter of the equivalent conductor cross-section of the damping element; Indicates the set target frequency; Indicates the permeability of free space; This represents the relative permeability of the damping element material; Represents the resistivity at the initial reference temperature; This represents the temperature coefficient of resistance of the damping element material; Indicates the physical temperature of the previous control cycle; This indicates the initial reference temperature.
[0057] Dynamic AC resistance value Indicates at a specific target frequency Below, the equivalent AC resistance of a damping element is determined by the skin effect and the change in material resistivity with temperature. This value is a key parameter for evaluating the losses and damping characteristics of a damping element under actual operating conditions. The equivalent conductive spread length of the damping element is also considered. This refers to the effective length through which current actually flows in the damping element. For example, for a coil-shaped damping element, it can refer to the total length of the coil conductor; for a sheet-like or rod-shaped element, it can refer to the geometric length of the current path. This length can be obtained directly from design drawings or through actual measurement. The equivalent conductor cross-sectional diameter of the damping element. This refers to the effective cross-sectional diameter of the conductor in the damping element. For a circular conductor, it is the actual diameter; for a non-circular conductor, an equivalent diameter can be used as an approximation. This diameter is an important parameter affecting the skin effect depth and can be determined through design specifications or geometric measurements. The target frequency is also considered. This refers to the specific frequency point where the dynamic AC resistance value needs to be calculated. In power systems, this could be the fundamental frequency, a specific harmonic frequency, or a subsynchronous resonant frequency, etc. This frequency value is set by system analysis or control requirements. Vacuum permeability It is a physical constant representing the magnetic permeability in a vacuum, and its value is approximately Relative permeability of damping element materials This represents the magnetic permeability of the conductor material of the damping element relative to vacuum. For non-magnetic materials (such as copper and aluminum), its value is close to 1; for ferromagnetic materials, its value is significantly greater than 1. This parameter can usually be obtained from the datasheet provided by the material supplier or determined through experimental testing. Resistivity at the initial reference temperature. The conductor material of the damping element at a certain standard reference temperature The resistivity at a given temperature. This is an inherent property of the material and can usually be found in the material specification sheet. Temperature coefficient of resistance of damping element materials. This indicates the sensitivity of the resistivity of the conductor material in the damping element to temperature changes. This coefficient is typically positive, indicating that resistivity increases with increasing temperature. This parameter can also be obtained from material data sheets or calibrated experimentally. The physical temperature of the previous control cycle. This refers to the actual physical temperature of the damping element inherited from or measured in the previous control cycle at the start of the current control cycle. This temperature reflects the thermal state of the damping element and is a key input for considering the temperature effect in the calculation of dynamic AC resistance. Initial reference temperature Refers to the definition of material resistivity The standard reference temperature. Usually room temperature, for example... or .
[0058] This application refines the calculation of dynamic AC resistance by introducing a specific formula based on the first mechanism of the skin effect and considering physical temperature modulation. This formula incorporates the geometric dimensions of the damping element (equivalent conductive unfolded length). Equivalent conductor cross-sectional diameter Material properties (relative magnetic permeability) resistivity at the initial reference temperature Temperature coefficient of resistance ) and operating conditions (set target frequency) Physical temperature of the previous control cycle They are organically combined. Specifically, the formula contains... This part accurately reflects the relationship between the skin effect depth and frequency, permeability, and temperature-modulated resistivity, while This effect is then mapped onto the overall geometry of the damping element. In this way, the calculation formula can accurately reflect the actual AC resistance characteristics of the damping element at different frequencies and temperatures in real time, thus providing more reliable basic data for subsequent thermal balance calculations, thermomagnetic coupling inductance calculations, and the extraction of the system's precise characteristic damping ratio. This accurate resistance calculation avoids the errors caused by simplified models in traditional methods, enabling the entire series capacitor compensation damping circuit method to more accurately sense the system state and perform adaptive damping reconstruction.
[0059] As a specific implementation method, the above-mentioned technical means can be implemented with reference to the following example. Assume the damping element is a copper wire inductor wound on a non-magnetic frame. When calculating its dynamic AC resistance value, the total length of the copper wire is first obtained from the inductor's design parameters as the equivalent conductive unfolded length. The diameter of the copper wire is obtained as the equivalent conductor cross-sectional diameter. The relative magnetic permeability of copper materials The value can be set to 1, the initial reference temperature. resistivity at the following and temperature coefficient of resistance This information can be found in standard datasheets for copper materials. Vacuum permeability. This is a known constant. In each control cycle, the control system acquires the physical temperature from the previous control cycle. and the target frequency that needs to be analyzed Subsequently, an embedded processor or digital signal processor (DSP) substitutes these parameters into the above formula. In real time, the system calculates the dynamic AC resistance value modulated by physical temperature at the current target frequency. For example, when the target frequency is the subsynchronous resonant frequency, the system can obtain the accurate dynamic AC resistance value at that frequency.
[0060] Through the above technical solution, this application can accurately quantify the influence of the skin effect and physical temperature on the AC resistance value of the damping element. The specific calculation formula comprehensively considers the geometric dimensions, material properties, and actual operating frequency and temperature conditions of the damping element, thus overcoming the problem of inaccurate estimation of dynamic AC resistance values in traditional methods. This high-precision calculation of dynamic AC resistance values provides a more solid and reliable data foundation for subsequent iterative calculations of real-time physical temperature for thermal equilibrium, calculations of thermomagnetic coupling dynamic inductance values, and extraction of the system's precise characteristic damping ratio. Therefore, the entire series capacitor compensation damping circuit method can more accurately reflect the actual operating state of the system, thereby making the generation of adaptive damping reconstruction commands more precise and effectively improving the damping circuit's ability to suppress subsynchronous resonance and the system's operational stability.

[0091] This application, through the aforementioned technical solution, achieves a deep sensing capability for the nonlinear coupling evolution process of multiple physical fields (electro-thermal-magnetic) in a damping circuit. Traditional damping control techniques treat physical parameters as static constants, failing to adapt to the dynamic parameter drift caused by the superposition of high-frequency skin effect and fundamental large-current bias magnetization effect resulting from broadband harmonic distortion currents in actual operating conditions. This leads to a severe shift in the inherent resonant frequency of the damping circuit, causing the system's characteristic damping ratio to fall below the safety boundary. This application addresses this by using a basic parameter acquisition module to collect multi-dimensional operating data in real time, a resistance dynamic analysis module to accurately calculate the dynamic AC resistance value based on the first-order mechanism of the skin effect, a thermal balance calculation module to iteratively solve for the real-time physical temperature of the thermal balance through power coupling and Newton's law of cooling, a thermomagnetic coupling calculation module to calculate the dynamic inductance value of the thermomagnetic coupling by comprehensively considering the Curie temperature spontaneous magnetization decay mechanism, and a characteristic damping ratio extraction module to obtain the accurate characteristic damping ratio of the system. When the damping ratio deviates from the safety threshold, the impedance adaptive reconstruction execution module immediately generates a transient voltage injection command, driving the active converter to perform adaptive damping reconstruction. This closed-loop control mechanism effectively overcomes the shortcomings of traditional technologies in lacking dynamic perception and active compensation capabilities. It can provide flexible and precise active feedforward compensation in system detuning transients, thereby avoiding resonance suppression failure and significantly improving the safe and stable operation level of power grid equipment.
