Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of power electronics, in particular to a hybrid modulation method of a modular multilevel converter.
Background
The Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) has the characteristics of high modular design, low harmonic content of output voltage and easiness in expanding voltage and power grade, and is widely applied to various medium-voltage and high-power electric energy conversion scenes, such as flexible direct-current transmission, new energy collection, intelligent transformers, motor driving and the like.
At present, the mainstream Modulation technology of the MMC includes two types, namely Carrier Phase Shift Pulse-width Modulation (CPS-PWM) and Nearest Level Control (NLC). CPS-PWM has good harmonic characteristics, but the switching frequency is high, and when the number of MMC sub-modules is large, a large amount of computing resources are needed, so that the CPS-PWM is mainly applied to the MMC with only a few sub-modules. NLC modulation respectively calculates the number of the switching-on sub-modules of the upper bridge arm and the lower bridge arm according to the modulation wave and switches on the sub-modules with corresponding number, and step waves are formed at MMC alternating current output. The method has the characteristics of low switching frequency of the sub-modules and small calculation burden, and is widely applied to MMC scenes with dozens of hundreds of sub-modules.
Negative-sequence double-frequency circulation exists on a bridge arm of the MMC, the circulation can increase the fluctuation of capacitance on the submodule and can also increase the loss on the submodule, and the circulation is also an important control target of the MMC. There are many methods for restraining the circulation current, including a proportional-integral controller in a rotating coordinate system, a proportional-resonant controller in a stationary coordinate system, etc., and these methods are all essentially that a circulation current restraining voltage with a frequency doubling negative sequence is superimposed on a modulation wave of a bridge arm to restrain the circulation current.
However, when the MMC is applied in a medium-voltage scenario, each bridge arm only has dozens of sub-modules, and the circulating current suppression voltage is smaller than the voltage of one sub-module capacitor. The NLC modulation can accurately modulate the alternating current output voltage, and the circulating current restraining voltage is difficult to accurately modulate, so that the direct current side current and power fluctuation of the MMC is caused.
At present, no explanation or report of the similar technology of the invention is found, and similar data at home and abroad are not collected.
