Description

A control method for hybrid parallel integrated power supply Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of power supply control, and in particular to a control method for a hybrid parallel integrated power supply. Background Art

[0002] As a core component of shore power system power conversion and system control, the inverter determines the stable, reliable, and efficient operation of the shore power system. Therefore, research on high-power, high-performance, and cost-effective integrated power supplies is urgent. Existing technologies have the limitations of single-device inverters, lack redundancy, and have weak scalability, making them unsuitable for existing diverse power systems. Secondly, existing technologies also use inverter power topologies composed of large-capacity Si-based inverters connected in parallel with small-capacity SiC-based inverters. Their scalability and redundancy have attracted widespread attention, but their power control calculation methods are insufficient to eliminate harmonic compensation control and optimize conduction losses.

[0003] After searching, publication number CN107834561A - A harmonic improvement method for an inverter of a power generation system discloses converting wind speed / light energy into the output power of the inverter, and then dividing the output power into several power level intervals according to the curve of total harmonic distortion (THD) changing with output power. Each power level interval corresponds to a switching frequency to make the THD lower than 5%. When the wind / photovoltaic power generation system is operating throughout the year, a corresponding switching frequency is used according to the power level interval where the output power is located to adapt to the changing output power and achieve the purpose of improving harmonics; however, it does not have the redundancy advantage, has poor scalability, and has limited high harmonic suppression capability. The power quality provided is still not enough to meet high standards, and is not suitable for complex and diverse power supply systems.

[0033] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0034] To better illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention provides a specific embodiment of a hybrid parallel integrated power supply power control method, as shown in FIG1 to FIG6, including the following parts:

[0035] Figures 1 and 2 are schematic diagrams of a specific control method for a hybrid parallel integrated power supply power control method of the present invention. Since the Si-based inverter and the SiC-based inverter share the same common DC bus when operating in parallel, the circulating current generated will cause a zero-sequence component to appear in the phase currents of the two inverters. Therefore, it is necessary to measure the three-phase currents of the Si-based inverter and the SiC-based inverter separately.

[0036] Figure 3 shows a proportional-integral controller designed in the dq coordinate system to process the basic power of the Si-based inverter at 1 to 10 kHz.

[0037] Figure 4 shows a proportional-integral controller designed for a SiC-based inverter in the dq coordinate system to process part of the power of the SiC-based inverter at frequencies greater than 10kHz.

[0038] Figure 5 shows the block diagram of a harmonic compensation controller. To minimize harmonic distortion in the output load current of a low-frequency Si-based inverter, a proportional harmonic compensation controller is designed for a high-frequency SiC-based inverter in the abc coordinate system. This controller conveniently calculates the fundamental current and fundamental operating frequency. The fast switching action of the SiC-based inverter can be exploited to suppress harmonics, and the designed harmonic compensation control eliminates the zero-sequence component caused by circulating current.

[0039] Furthermore, a novel current distribution method is used to change the conduction loss of the fundamental current in the Si-based inverter and the SiC-based inverter according to the current distributed between the Si-based inverter and the SiC-based inverter.

[0040] As a preferred method, the expression of conduction loss P1 can be expressed as:

[0041] The global minimum value of P1 is obtained through the expression equation of conduction loss P1:

[0042] The optimal current load of the two inverters obtained by the new current distribution method is:

[0043] Where k1 and k2 are:

[0044] The current value on the Si-based inverter is obtained to select the optimal current distribution ratio range, where V CEO is the zero-current collector-emitter voltage value of the on-state of the Si-based inverter, r Si is the collector-emitter on-resistance of the Si-based inverter, R DS(ON) is the drain-source on-resistance of the SiC-based inverter, is the average current value of the Si-based inverter, |I o | RMS is the total load current value delivered by the topology hybrid parallel integrated power supply, |I Si| RMS is the current value of the Si-based inverter in the topology hybrid parallel integration, |I SiC | RMS is the current value of the SiC-based inverter in the topology hybrid parallel integration; where m Si is the modulation index, is the power factor of the Si-based inverter.

[0045] For a total load current of 30A, the above equation shows that the Si-based inverter should provide a load current of 22A, while the SiC inverter should provide a load current of 8A. For the selected devices, the hybrid parallel integrated power supply has the lowest combined conduction losses when the power distribution of the Si-based inverter and the SiC-based inverter is 73.33% and 26.67%, respectively.

[0046] The conduction loss caused by harmonic current in Si-based inverters and SiC-based inverters and the switching loss of Si-based inverters vary according to the switching frequency of the Si-based inverter.

[0047] The expression equation of the conduction loss caused by harmonics and the switching loss P2 of the Si-based inverter is: |I si_harm | RMS =THD x I si_fund_rms

[0048] Among them, the expression of total harmonic distortion (THD) is: THD=0.00005f 2 sw_si -0.0977f sw_si +63.118

[0049] By calculating the minimum value of the loss P2, the optimal PWM frequency is further optimized as follows:

[0050] where |I si_harm | RMS and f sw_Si are the harmonic current and switching frequency generated by the Si-based inverter, E max_Si is the maximum switching energy loss of the Si-based inverter; I Si_fund_RMS is the fundamental current of the Si-based inverter, and THD is the total harmonic distortion of the inverter under a given filter inductance value; the THD expression is obtained according to the function P2 formula, and is obtained by f sw_Si The third-order equation shows that when the base load current is 22A, the optimal switching frequency of the Si-based inverter is 2kHz.

[0051] Figure 6 shows the functional relationship between the THD of the Si-based inverter's output current and the PWM switching frequency. This allows for a more direct observation of the inverse relationship between the total harmonic distortion (THD) and the switching frequency (PWM). Through the above steps, harmonic compensation control is implemented to eliminate the zero-sequence component caused by the circulating current. This optimizes the conduction losses caused by the fundamental and harmonic currents, as well as the losses caused by the Si-based inverter switches, ultimately minimizing the losses of the hybrid parallel integrated power supply.

[0052] It is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the above-mentioned exemplary embodiments, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the present invention. Therefore, from any point of view, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive. The scope of the present invention is limited by the appended claims rather than the above description. Therefore, it is intended that all changes that fall within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims are included in the present invention, and any figure marks in the claims should not be regarded as limiting the claims involved.
