Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of heat pump drive control, in particular to a single-phase interleaved PFC heat pump drive control device. Background Art
[0002] In heat pump systems below 5P (horsepower), the use of a single switch tube plus a reactor for power factor correction (PFC) can meet the needs. However, when the system power exceeds 5P, the traditional single switch tube solution will encounter challenges, mainly because the cost of high-power switch tubes has increased significantly, and the required reactor is bulky and takes up too much space. As the system power increases, the current that a single switch tube needs to withstand also increases, which not only increases the electrical stress of the switch tube, but may also affect its life and reliability.

[0027] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings to further describe the technical solution of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.
[0028] Embodiment 1
[0029] In order to reduce the cost of switch tubes in high-power heat pump systems, Figure 1 As shown, the utility model proposes a single-phase interleaved PFC heat pump drive control device, comprising:
[0030] The PFC driving module comprises a first PFC driving unit and a second PFC driving unit connected in parallel with the first PFC driving unit;
[0031] Rectifier bridge, used to receive 220V AC power and convert it into DC power before inputting into the PFC drive module;
[0032] The sampling module is used to collect actual operation data and input it into the MCU module; the actual operation data includes: the actual voltage value of the rectifier bridge output, the actual output voltage value of the PFC drive module, the actual output current value of the second PFC drive unit and the actual output current value of the PFC drive module. The actual output current value of the PFC drive module is the actual output current value of the loop formed by the first PFC drive unit and the second PFC drive unit.
[0033] It should be explained that the sampling module includes: a first sampling unit 1, a second sampling unit 2 and a third sampling unit 3 (ie Figure 1 1, 2, 3). Among them:
[0034] The first sampling unit 1 is used to collect the actual voltage value output by the rectifier bridge;
[0035] The second sampling unit 2 is used to collect the actual output current value and the actual output current value of the PFC driving module;
[0036] The third sampling unit 3 is used to collect the actual output current value of the second PFC driving unit.
[0037] A driver connected to the output end of the PFC driver module;
[0038] The MCU module further includes a first PI regulator for issuing a duty cycle instruction to the first PFC drive unit, and a second PI regulator for issuing a duty cycle instruction to the second PFC drive unit.
[0039] The MCU module further includes: a first timing module or a second timing module; the first timing module includes: a TIM4 timer and a TIM7 timer; the second timing module includes a TIM5 timer.
[0040] The initial value of the TIM4 timer is 0, and the timing period is 1000; the initial value of the TIM7 timer is 1000, and the timing period is 1000;
[0041] The counting directions of the TIM4 timer and the TIM7 timer are opposite.
[0042] In one PWM cycle, when the count value of the TIM4 timer is greater than the output value of the first PI regulator, the drive pin of the first PFC drive unit corresponding to the IGBT outputs a high level, and when the count value of the TIM4 timer is less than the output value of the first PI regulator, the drive pin of the first PFC drive unit corresponding to the IGBT outputs a low level; in one PWM cycle, when the count value of the TIM7 timer is greater than the second PI regulator, the drive pin of the second PFC drive unit corresponding to the IGBT outputs a high level, and when the count value of the TIM7 timer is less than the output value of the second PI regulator, the drive pin of the second PFC drive unit corresponding to the IGBT outputs a low level.
[0043] It should be noted that the initial value of TIM4 is 0, while the initial value of TIM7 is set to 1000. This means that the starting points of the two timers are exactly one cycle length (1000 counting units) apart. After the device is running, TIM4 starts counting up from 0 until it reaches 1000, and at the same time, TIM7 starts counting down from 1000 until it reaches 0. This process ensures that the working states of the two are exactly staggered in time, forming an interlaced state. When TIM4 counts to 1000, its counter is reset to 0 and immediately starts counting up for the next cycle; and when TIM7 counts to 0, it is also reset to 1000 and starts a new decrement cycle. This design ensures that at the beginning of each cycle, TIM4 and TIM7 are always in opposite counting directions, maintaining an electrical angle difference of 180 degrees, and realizing the interlaced operation of the two PFC drive units. In addition, since the switching actions of the two PFC drive units are staggered by 180 electrical degrees, the ripples in the input current can offset each other, thereby improving the power factor.
[0044] The initial value of the TIM5 timer count value is 0, and the count period is 1000; when the TIM5 timer count value increases to 1000, it continues to decrease from 1000, and when it decreases to 0, it continues to increase to 1000, and repeats this cycle.
[0045] In one PWM cycle, when the TIM5 timer is in the rising counting stage and the output value of the first PI regulator is equal to the count value of the TIM5 timer, the drive pin of the first PFC drive unit corresponding to the IGBT outputs a high level, and when the TIM5 timer is in the falling counting stage and the output value of the first PI regulator is equal to the count value of the TIM5 timer, the drive pin of the first PFC drive unit corresponding to the IGBT outputs a low level; in one PWM cycle, when the TIM5 timer is in the rising counting stage and the output value of the second PI regulator is equal to the count value of the TIM5 timer, the drive pin of the second PFC drive unit corresponding to the IGBT outputs a low level, and when the TIM5 timer is in the falling counting stage and the output value of the second PI regulator is equal to the count value of the TIM5 timer, the drive pin of the second PFC drive unit corresponding to the IGBT outputs a high level.
[0046] In this embodiment, when only one timer TIM5 is used, its initial value is set to 0, which means that the count starts from zero. The period value of TIM5 is also set to 1000 counting units, which is consistent with the period of each timer in the previous method, ensuring the matching of the control period. TIM5 adopts a continuous increase and decrease counting mode, which means that after counting from 0 to 1000, it will immediately start to decrease from 1000 back to 0, and then increase from 0 again, and so on. This mode ensures the continuity of the control signal and provides a basis for interleaved control.
[0047] The MCU module is used to control the first PFC drive unit and the second PFC drive unit to work alternately, and dynamically adjust the duty cycle instructions of the first PFC drive unit and the second PFC drive unit when working according to actual operation data; and is also used to send a PWM duty cycle drive signal to the driver;
[0048] In this embodiment, the MCU module adopts a digital signal processor DSP (TMS320F28034).
[0049] When the MCU module includes a first timing module, the MCU module controls the TIM4 timer and the TIM7 timer to start simultaneously, and controls the duty cycle instruction issued by the first PI regulator to the first PFC drive unit through the count of the TIM4 timer, and controls the duty cycle instruction issued by the second PI regulator to the second PFC drive unit through the count of the TIM7 timer, so that the first PFC drive unit and the second PFC drive unit work alternately.

[0057] In this embodiment, the control process of the second PI regulator is as follows: Figure 2 As shown (in this process, il represents the actual output current value of the second PFC drive unit):

[0062] 5. Comparator: Convert the output of PI2 to obtain the corresponding digital quantity, and output the corresponding PWM signal to the IGBT module in the second PFC drive unit by comparing the ramp function with the digital quantity.
[0063] When the MCU module includes a second timing module, the MCU module controls the outputs of the first PI regulator and the second PI regulator through the count of the TIM5 timer, so that the first PFC driving unit and the second PFC driving unit work alternately.
