Abstract
The research on control strategies of the variable speed pumped storage unit with full size converter (FSC-VSPSU), mainly focuses on the rapidity of power regulation. But the speed oscillation and slow speed regulation performance caused by fast power regulation are ignored, which is not conducive to the safe and efficient operation of the unit. This article investigates the dynamic stability characteristics of the FSC-VSPSU in detail. In turn, the stability risks are clarified and serve for the design of its control strategy and the improvement of operational efficiency. The small-signal model of FSC-VSPSU considering the variation of water head and load in fast power mode is established. The dominant instability control link and key parameters are revealed based on the eigenvalue analysis. Oscillation mode analysis shows that the unit has a wide-band oscillation characteristic. The dominant oscillation mode is the ultra-low frequency oscillation (ULFO) caused by the governor control system. To suppress the ULFO and improve the optimal speed tracking performance of the unit to the greatest extent, a coordinated control strategy of governor variable parameter control and governor power system stabilizer (GPSS) is proposed. The electromagnetic transient simulation based on PSCAD verifies the effectiveness of the proposed measures.
