摘要
In flexible DC transmission and distribution systems, DC system is convenient to solve the problem of flexible control and reliable power supply through multi-point feed-in method and multi-terminal networks. Therefore, concerns and research about ring-type and mesh-type multi-terminal flexible DC transmission and distribution technology have been greatly increased. In order to solve the problem of low control degrees of freedom in flexible DC grids, it is necessary to add DC power flow controller (DCPFC) to realize optimal power flow control, so as to relieve the congestion of transmission corridor and reduce the line loss. Specific to multi-terminal flexible DC network with modular multilevel converter (MMC), this paper presented an embedded DC power flow controller (e-DCPFC) embedded in MMC, with which power flow control capability for ring-type and mesh-type flexible DC grids at the same voltage level can be realized. The controller implemented by derivation of MMC topology has advantages of simple topology structure, convenience for multi-port extension and bipolar regulating capacity. First, the topology of e-DCPFC and its embed method in MMC were presented. Second, based on the detailed analysis of the working principle of e-DCPFC, the coordinated control strategy for e-DCPFC and MMC was proposed. Then, a simulation model was built in Matlab to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of e-DCPFC through three operating conditions. Finally, a principle sample machine of e-DCPFC was built in the lab for experimental verification. The results show that the proposed controller can achieve effective control of power flow under various working conditions. © 2021 Chin. Soc. for Elec. Eng.
