Problems solved by technology

However, when the number of sub-modules is hundreds or thousands, the amount of sorting calculations in traditional methods increases exponentially, which brings difficulties to control technology and hardware design, increases the difficulty of actual engineering implementation, and increases engineering costs.
In addition, the existing sorting algorithm does not combine the control characteristics of MMC, but only applies mathematically different sorting algorithms to voltage equalization control

Abstract

The invention provides an optimized merging and sorting based modular multilevel converter capacitor voltage equalizing method, which is characterized in that a merging and sorting algorithm is optimized through analyzing a capacitor voltage law of nearest level modulation in an ideal condition by using a modular multilevel converter modulation technology, the time complexity of optimized merging and sorting is further reduced, the execution time of actual sorting is reduced to the minimum, the sorting efficiency is very high, and sorting is not restricted by the number of sub-modules. In addition, a non-ideal condition correction optimized merging and sorting algorithm is provided by combining a direct insertion sorting method, the sorting accuracy can be ensured by correcting the optimized algorithm, the voltage equalizing effect is good, and the extra time overhead is small.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of electric power systems, in particular to a method for equalizing capacitor voltage of modularized multilevel converters based on optimized merge sorting. Background technique [0002] The high-voltage direct current transmission system (VSC-HVDC) based on the voltage source converter can independently control active and reactive power, and can work in a passive inverter state, so it has broad development prospects. However, in high-voltage and high-power applications, the problem of withstand voltage of switching devices caused by traditional two-level and three-level VSCs is difficult to solve. Such as figure 1 The new modular multilevel converter topology (modular multilevel converter, MMC) shown can effectively increase the number of levels, reduce harmonic content, reduce switching frequency, and has the advantages of convenient modular design and cascaded higher voltage levels, etc. Advantages, wit...
