摘要
Sub-module capacitors of modular multilevel converter (MMC) have critical impact on the cost and size of MMC. Circulating current control is an effective method to suppress capacitor voltage ripple. The existing analytical method is not sufficient enough to figure out accurate analytical relation between MMC operation boundaries and circulating current control. Therefore, this paper proposes an operation boundary analysis method which considers the impact of circulating-current control, and accordingly proposed a capacitor voltage ripple reduction control strategy, which can directly regulate the capacitor voltage ripple boundary through circulating-current control. Experimental results are presented to verify the validation of the proposed analysis method and control strategy.
