【报告内容简介】

模块化多电平变换器（MMC）被认为是可再生能源与现有公用事业电网之间的关键接口技术，然而当前MMC控制复杂且不直观。由于MMC系统状态量远大于控制量，为最小化其内部环流而拓展的控制模糊不清。若没有对MMC进行合适的建模和控制，MMC在运行时会产生大量环流，导致大体积储能电容器被过度使用。采用状态平面分析技术，以图形方式给出了MMC两种类型的环流，一种与MMC输入和输出能量交换有关，另一种与MMC内上下桥臂能量交换有关。此外，两个功率流本质上是正交的，这意味着各个功率路径上的控制独立。因此，采用坐标转换，建立了解耦的等效电路模型，独立控制管理各个功率流，明确了消除环流的方法。

Modular multilevel converter is deemed the key interface technology between renewable energy sources and the existing utility power grids. However, the interface control currently deployed is rather complicated and counterintuitive. Since the systems states are far greater than the means of control, the extend of control to minimize the circulating energy was rather ambiguous. Without proper modeling and control, this system is often operated with large circulating energy, resulting in excessive use of the bulky energy storage capacitors.

Employing state-plane analysis techniques, two types of circulating energies are delineated graphically, one related to the energy exchange between input and output, and the other related to the energy swapping between upper arm and lower arm. Furthermore, these two power flows are orthogonal in nature, implying that the means of control for each power flow path are independent. Consequently, a coordinate transformation is employed, leading to a decoupled equivalent circuit model. Each power flow path is governed by it’s own control law. Methods of eliminating circulating energy are clearly identified.
