The present invention discloses a converter
control mode switching method and
system based on a current saturation
algorithm. The method establishes an outer loop
voltage control equation for a grid-type converter under fault-free conditions and defines the converter as operating in a
constant voltage mode. Considering the current limit of devices under fault conditions, a dq axis current reference value under fault conditions is generated based on the current saturation
algorithm and the converter is defined as operating in a current-limited mode. After a fault occurs in the
constant voltage mode, the method determines whether the converter's
current amplitude at the moment of the fault exceeds the saturated
current amplitude that the device can withstand, and the converter switches from the
constant voltage mode to the current-limited mode. In the current-limited mode, when the difference between the actual value of the converter's output active power and the reference value is less than a given value, the converter exits the current-limited mode and enters the constant
voltage mode. Finally, based on the converter's switching rules between CVC and CLC
modes, a switching model for the grid-type converter after a fault occurs is derived. The present invention can achieve automatic switching to avoid device
overcurrent problems, with simple and effective logic.
