One High Voltage Regulation Method and Related Control Strategy in the DC Transmission System

Abstract

Background: With the development of power transmission system, the problem of small transmission capacity and low power quality of traditional AC power distribution methods is becoming increasingly prominent. The DC power distribution method promotes its own rapid development because of its suitability of connection between distributed generation and grid, high power quality, large power supply capacity, low line cost and high reliability. Objective: In order to improve the transient performance when the system power fluctuates, a control method that can perform voltage regulation to the DC system is designed in the process of calculating the power command value of each converter station at the system level control. Simulation results show that the designed control method can effectively improve the inertial characteristics and transient response of DC transmission system. Methods: Aiming at the shortcomings of slow response speed and poor stability when the traditional dual closed-loop PI controller is used as a converter level controller, a sliding mode controller is designed. Simulation results show that the designed sliding mode controller can improve transient characteristics of voltage regulation. Results: Voltage control strategy of the DC transmission network based on the converter station is verified. Conclusion: A voltage control strategy based on distributed generation and secondary load switching is designed. The simulation verifies the effectiveness of the designed control strategy.
