[0042] refer to Figure 1The embodiment of the utility model provides a supercapacitor-based dynamic voltage restorer for compensating the voltage of a subway escalator. The supercapacitor-based dynamic voltage restorer includes: a super energy storage device, an inverter circuit, a detection and control circuit, and a bypass unit.

[0043] The supercapacitor energy storage device is connected to the inverter circuit to store energy when the subway AC grid voltage is normal and release energy when the subway AC grid voltage drops temporarily, outputting a DC voltage U dc .

[0044] Specifically, the supercapacitor energy storage device is formed by connecting at least two standard supercapacitor modules in series, the capacitance value of the supercapacitor module is selected according to the stored energy, and the number of standard supercapacitor modules is determined by the DC voltage.

[0045] The supercapacitor module model in the embodiment of the utility model is MCP0165C0-0048R0, the output voltage is 48V, and the capacity is 165F; 10 supercapacitor modules are connected in series, that is, the output DC voltage U dc It is 480V.

[0046] The inverter circuit is connected to the bypass unit through a series transformer, which is used for electrical isolation, compensation voltage matching and power transfer.

[0047] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 The above-mentioned inverter circuit includes at least one single-phase full-bridge circuit, and each single-phase full-bridge circuit is connected in parallel.

[0048] Furthermore, the above-mentioned single-phase full-bridge circuit includes a DC side capacitor C, a first bridge arm and a second bridge arm; the DC side capacitor C, the first bridge arm and the second bridge arm are connected in parallel with the output end of the supercapacitor energy storage device in sequence, and the midpoint of the first bridge arm and the midpoint of the second bridge arm serve as the output port of the single-phase full-bridge circuit.

[0049] Furthermore, the first bridge arm includes a first switch tube Q1 and a second switch tube Q2, the emitter of the first switch tube Q1 is connected to the collector of the second switch tube Q2, forming the first bridge arm; the second bridge arm includes a third switch tube Q3 and a fourth switch tube Q4, the emitter of the third switch tube Q3 is connected to the collector of the fourth switch tube Q4, forming the second bridge arm; wherein the switch tube adopts an insulated gate bipolar transistor IGBT. The supercapacitor energy storage device inputs direct current into the DC side capacitor C, one end of the DC side capacitor C is connected to the collector of the first switch tube Q1 and the collector of the third switch tube Q3, and the other end of the DC side capacitor C is connected to the emitter of the second switch tube Q2 and the emitter of the fourth switch tube Q4.

[0050] In addition, since the output of the single-phase full-bridge circuit is a series of rectangular waves, it includes not only the 50Hz power frequency voltage component, but also the high-frequency harmonics of the same switching frequency and its multiples. In order to obtain the 50Hz power frequency voltage, the inverter circuit also includes an inverter low-pass filter. The inverter low-pass filter adopts an LC second-order filter, which is composed of a filter inductor La and a filter capacitor Ca connected in series. The filter capacitor Ca is connected in parallel with the bypass unit.
