Embodiment Construction

[0020] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0021] Such as figure 1 As shown, it is assumed that a bridge arm of a modular multilevel converter consists of M valve groups and a bridge arm reactor L s Each valve group is formed by cascading N half-bridge sub-modules, and each sub-module contains 2 fully-controlled power electronic switching devices (S1 and S2), 2 anti-parallel diodes and 1 sub-module Module Capacitance (C sm ).

[0022] Such as figure 1 As shown, the present invention is a method for equalizing the voltage of a modular multilevel converter, which divides the equalization of the sub-modules of the modular multilevel converter into two parts: equalizing the pressure inside the valve group and equalizing the pressure between the valve groups. The pressure equalization in the valve group realizes the equalization of the sub-module voltage inside each valve group of the mo...

Abstract

The invention discloses a voltage equalizing method for a modular multilevel converter. The voltage equalizing method consists of voltage equalization in a valve bank and voltage equalization among valve banks. The voltage equalizing in the valve bank realizes the equalization of submodule voltage in each valve bank of the modular multilevel converter. The voltage equalization realizes the equalization of the average value of submodule voltage among all valve banks of the modular multilevel converter. The voltage equalizing method is used for balancing the submodule voltage of the modularized multilevel converter, is very suitable for application that the number of the submodules of the modular multilevel converter is huge and can greatly reduce time spent in sequencing the voltage of the submodules.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of power electronics technology and power systems, in particular to a voltage equalization method for a modular multilevel converter. Background technique [0002] The flexible DC transmission technology and flexible AC transmission technology based on voltage source converters adopt fully-controlled power electronic switching devices and pulse width modulation strategies, and have the advantages of independent control of active power and reactive power, so they are especially suitable for multi-terminal DC transmission. , passive network power supply, grid-connected renewable energy power generation and asynchronous interconnection of AC systems, etc. Compared with conventional 2-level or 3-level voltage source converters, modular multilevel converters have the advantages of good scalability and modular design, which can effectively improve the dynamic dynamics brought about by the series-parallel connection of powe...
