Problems solved by technology

The chain-type energy consumption device is mainly used in the application scenario of island power supply. If the power generation end is an inertial power source similar to wind power, when the power receiving end fails, the power will not be sent out, and the energy will be accumulated on the DC side, resulting in damage to the DC transmission line. The voltage rises, causing harm to the safe operation of the equipment

[0003] In the prior art, the method adopted is to directly connect the power semiconductor devices in series. When the DC voltage is too high, through the control of the power electronic device, a resistor is put in. The input of the resistor will reduce the DC voltage. When the energy consumption speed of the resistor exceeds the DC voltage The speed at which the side accumulates energy, the DC voltage will drop. At this time, turn off the resistance discharge circuit, the DC voltage will rise again, and repeatedly turn on and off the resistance branch, forming the effect of hysteresis control. The main problem of this method is The problem is that when turning off, it is difficult to ensure consistency because multiple power semiconductor switching devices are turned off at the same time. Once the shutdown is not synchronized, the slow-turning device or the fast-turning-off device will be damaged due to overvoltage; Moreover, the high-speed on and off state switching will also result in a large voltage and current change rate, resulting in magnetic field interference

In addition, in the prior art, each sub-module includes a large number of power semiconductor devices, and the cost is relatively high
