[0021] Figure 2 FIG. 1 is a circuit structure schematic diagram of an exemplary power grid simulation device according to the present disclosure; DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] Preferred embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While preferred embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure may be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that the present disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art.

[0023] This disclosure provides a power grid simulation apparatus that considers the accuracy of simulation testing, for improving the simulation accuracy of a power grid simulator. An exemplary embodiment of this disclosure is attached. Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 As shown, this power grid simulator system consists of a 10kV switchgear, a step-down transformer, a converter, electronic loads, and a test wiring cabinet. Among these components:

[0024] (1) The switch cabinet is equipped with a high-speed circuit breaker for controlling the connection and disconnection between the power grid simulator and the power supply network.

[0025] (2) A step-down transformer reduces the high voltage of the power grid to a suitable voltage to supply power to the converter or provide feedback.

[0026] (3) The converter assembly is divided into: rectifier section (AC / DC), inverter section (DC / AC), and converter section (DC / DC), among which,

[0027] The rectifier is used to output a stable DC voltage to the subsequent inverter and converter, while the output power factor is as close to 1 as possible to ensure that the grid simulator can work efficiently.

[0028] The inverter section is used to output a controllable AC voltage. The target output voltage value is achieved by changing the reference voltage of the inverter's control strategy.

[0029] The converter section is used to output a controllable DC voltage, and the magnitude of the output DC voltage value is adjusted by controlling the converter switch.

[0030] (4) The RLC electronic load is mainly used to test the characteristics of the test object when it is in islanded operation. It can simulate the characteristics of resistive load, capacitive load and inductive load. It can operate in single phase, three phase and unbalanced mode. The front-end configuration and isolation transformer are isolated from the test object. This part and the converter assembly combine the output voltage through the transformer, so that pure AC output, pure DC output or AC-DC hybrid output can be adopted according to the situation.

[0031] (5) Preferably, it also includes: a test wiring cabinet for connecting to the test object, which can be expanded to add interfaces, and at the same time prevents the power grid simulator and the test object from failing at the same time, thus playing a buffer role.

[0032] Appendix Figure 2For the specific topology of the converter section, the inverter section of this structure adopts a three-phase four-bridge-arm structure, and the converter section adopts a CLLC type resonant converter structure. Compared with the conventional three-phase three-bridge-arm inverter, the former adds an inductor-loaded bridge arm, creating an additional loop for zero-sequence current to flow in, which can precisely control the zero-sequence current and voltage. At the same time, due to the presence of neutral inductance, the size and weight of the inverter system filter are reduced accordingly, and the THD of the output inductor current and neutral current can be effectively reduced. The latter, due to the limiting effect of inductance and capacitance at the transformer, enables the converter switch to achieve zero-voltage turn-on, ensuring the accuracy of the output voltage.

[0033] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: The inverter part of the power grid simulator adopts a positive and negative zero sequence control scheme. It quickly extracts the positive and negative zero sequence components of the output voltage and output current through DDSRF-PLL (three-phase phase-locked loop), calculates the target voltage reference value, and then obtains the control signal of the four bridge arms through PR (proportional resonance) regulation and 3D-SVPWM modulation (three-dimensional space vector pulse width modulation) to achieve high-precision voltage simulation.

[0034] In this embodiment, the three-phase four-bridge arm structure and CLLC structure design are combined to effectively improve the output voltage accuracy.

[0035] The system also includes host computer control software, through which all equipment, instruments, and data acquisition are uniformly managed and controlled.

[0036] The equipment communicates via Ethernet, and standard tests such as high and low voltage ride-through and IEC harmonic flicker can be performed using the accompanying software.

[0037] The above technical solutions are merely exemplary embodiments of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, based on the application methods and principles disclosed in this utility model, it is easy to make various types of improvements or modifications, and not limited to the solutions described in the specific embodiments of this utility model. Therefore, the methods described above are only preferred and not restrictive.
