[0038] The specific embodiments of the application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0039] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the application clearer, the technical scheme of the embodiments of the application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0040] As disclosed in the background art, high-voltage direct current transmission technology is a key technology for long-distance power transmission, and there are two technical routes of conventional direct current and flexible direct current at present. The conventional direct current relies on AC grid commutation, and the problem of multi-infeed direct current commutation failure is increasingly prominent. With the access of multi-drop direct current in developed areas, the risk of large-area cascading commutation failure will challenge the short-circuit capacity of the system, so the application range of the technology will not be able to expand.
[0041] Although the flexible direct current transmission technology does not have the problem of commutation failure and has the characteristics of flexible and controllable power, it can also operate in network, and the voltage polarity does not need to follow when the power is reversed, but the device cost is high, the loss is large, and the capacity is insufficient.

The components used in the circuit topology provided by the present invention are only controllable devices, passive components such as capacitors and inductors, etc., and the implementation technology is relatively flexible, simple and easy to implement, and flexible to control.
[0043] The above scheme is described in detail below.
[0044] Example 1
[0045] 1 , which is a main structural block diagram of a controllable current source type converter valve topology according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0046] As shown in FIG1 , the controllable current source type converter valve topology in the embodiment of the present invention mainly includes:
[0047] The current-limiting reactor L connected to the DC side of the turn-off six-pulse commutation bridge dc Each arm of the switchable six-pulse commutation bridge is connected to a reactor L bt The middle tapped outgoing line of each bridge arm of the shut-off six-pulse commutation bridge forms a three-phase outlet. Each outlet connection of the three-phase outlet is connected to the three-phase grid after passing through three first reactors L. The three first reactors L are respectively connected in parallel with three first switches K1. The connection between each three-phase outlet and the first reactor L connected to it is connected in sequence to a second reactor L. ct and a capacitor C1, each capacitor is connected in parallel with a second switch K2.
[0048] In this embodiment, as shown in FIG2 , the shut-down six-pulse commutation bridge includes: a first branch, a second branch, and a third branch connected in parallel;
[0049] The first branch includes a first turn-off device topology structure and a second turn-off device topology structure connected in series;
[0050] The second branch includes a third turn-off device topology structure and a fourth turn-off device topology structure connected in series;
[0051] The third branch includes a fifth turn-off device topology structure and a sixth turn-off device topology structure connected in series.
[0052] Preferably, the turn-off device topology comprises a main branch and an auxiliary branch in parallel with each other.
[0053] The main branch comprises a saturable reactor, a thyristor and an H-bridge structure connected in series.
[0054] The auxiliary branch comprises an IGBT and a thyristor connected in series.
[0055] In one embodiment, the H-bridge structure comprises a first IGBT, a second IGBT, a third IGBT and a fourth IGBT.

[0058] In one embodiment, the configuration ratio of the number of reactors connected on the bridge arm of the controllable current source type converter valve to the number of thyristors contained in the turn-off device topology connected on the bridge arm of the controllable current source type converter valve is 2:x, wherein x is any value between 8 and 13.
[0059] In one embodiment, the turn-off device topology further comprises an arrester in parallel with the main branch and the auxiliary branch.
[0060] The controllable current source type converter valve designed by the application has a main branch opening process using the voltage difference of the parallel branch, so the main branch opens at low voltage, and the auxiliary branch is in an open state during the turn-off process, so the auxiliary branch is turned off at zero current. Since the device uses a thyristor or an IGBT, the device has large capacity and low loss.
[0061] The controllable current source type converter valve designed by the application adopts a bridge arm mixed topology. Since the main current branch uses a thyristor and the auxiliary branch uses an IGBT, the two branches are mixed in parallel, so the device has large current current and turn-off capacity.
[0062] Example 2
[0063] The application also provides a control method based on the controllable current source type converter valve topology. Specifically, the current I dThe current flows as shown in FIG. 3. In normal conduction, the current flows through the thyristors of the main branch of the Sl main branch and the full-bridge module, bearing the rated current and overload current; in commutation, the voltage zero point of the capacitor is taken as the initial time point, and the first controllable current source type converter topology Sl and the third controllable current source type converter topology S3 are commutated between the bridge arms through the firing angle.
[0064] For example, the first controllable current source type converter topology Sl and the third controllable current source type converter topology S3 are commutated between the bridge arms through the firing angle.
[0065] When the auxiliary branch current of the controllable current source type converter topology reaches the maximum, the auxiliary branch of the controllable current source type converter topology is commutated to the main branch, and when the auxiliary branch current of the controllable current source type converter topology is zero, the main branch of the controllable current source type converter topology is commutated to the auxiliary branch.

[0067] The thyristors of the main branch of the first controllable current source type converter topology, the first IGBT and the fourth IGBT of the H-bridge structure, the IGBT and the thyristor of the auxiliary branch of the first controllable current source type converter topology, the IGBT and the thyristor of the auxiliary branch of the third controllable current source type converter topology are closed, the second IGBT and the third IGBT of the H-bridge structure of the main branch of the first controllable current source type converter topology are opened, and all IGBTs of the H-bridge structure of the main branch of the third controllable current source type converter topology are opened.
[0068] In this embodiment, the main branch of the controllable current source type converter topology is commutated to the auxiliary branch, including:
[0069] The IGBT and the thyristor of the auxiliary branch of the controllable current source type converter topology are closed, the first IGBT and the fourth IGBT of the H-bridge structure of the main branch of the controllable current source type converter topology are opened, and the main branch thyristor is opened after the current transfer is completed.
[0070] In this embodiment, the auxiliary branch of the controllable current source type converter topology is commutated to the main branch, including:
[0071] The thyristors of the main branch of the controllable current source type converter topology and the second IGBT and the third IGBT of the H-bridge structure are closed, all IGBTs and thyristors of the auxiliary branch are closed, and the auxiliary branch IGBT and the thyristor are opened after the current transfer is completed.
[0072] The zero point can be obtained by a software phase-locked loop calculation and a hardware zero point acquisition method, and the calculation method of the trigger angle mainly comprises the following steps: according to the amplitude of active power and reactive power of the system, in combination with the amplitude and phase of the alternating voltage, the amplitude and phase angle difference of the capacitor voltage are calculated, and then the time of opening of the bridge arm is obtained according to the phase angle difference, that is, the delay time of opening of the bridge arm; the time width of opening of the bridge arm is controlled, so as to control the current injected from the direct current side to the alternating current side, and then the current flowing into the capacitor and the current of the alternating current system are controlled, so as to control the charging voltage of the capacitor.
[0073] The topology of the present application mainly depends on the active and reactive regulation, which can realize commutation at any time, and the commutation voltage is defined as two specific processes according to the commutation voltage at the active commutation time: positive voltage commutation: the voltage of the off bridge arm is greater than the voltage of the on bridge arm, and the trigger angle is less than 0; negative voltage commutation: the voltage of the off bridge arm is less than the voltage of the on bridge arm, and the trigger angle is greater than 0. As shown in Figure 3. The two commutation processes mean that the converter can work in the leading angle or the lagging angle, indicating that the converter can emit and absorb reactive power.
[0074] The controllable current source type converter valve topology of the embodiment of the present application completely eliminates the influence of the converter leakage reactance on the commutation process, and the converter working process has no commutation angle, so that the consumption of system reactive power is greatly reduced; the nonlinear element lightning arrester does not participate in the commutation process, the voltage distribution difficulty of different elements of the auxiliary branch of the converter valve is reduced, and the structure of the auxiliary branch is simplified.
