Abstract
The unbalanced power between positive and negative poles in a bipolar DC distribution network (DC-DN) generates an unbalanced current at the neutral line, which enlarges the power losses of the system and the voltage deviation of DC loads. An unbalanced power suppression strategy based on a series-parallel power flow controller (SP-PFC) is proposed in this paper. The SP-PFC is adopted as the interconnection between two different DC-DNs. The topology and operating modes of SP-PFC are analyzed. Subsequently, SP-PFC output voltage and line current expressions under constant power control are derived. The nonlinear relationship between the output voltage and line current is linearized at the operating point. On this basis, the influences of unbalanced load and receiving-end voltage on the SP-PFC are investigated. A small-signal model of bipolar DC-DN containing an SP-PFC is established, and the system stability is analyzed. A simulation model of the bipolar DC distribution network containing an SP-PFC is built up in MATLAB/Simulink, and the effectiveness of the SP-PFC in the suppression of unbalanced power is verified.
