DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0047] The technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0048] The current source input high-frequency isolation matrix converter disclosed in this application is shown in
[0049] The current source input matrix converter shown in 1 may be equivalently decoupled as two three-phase current source converters connected in parallel as shown in 8; therefore, a current space vector modulation method can be applied to the current source input matrix converter, and changing an action sequence of current vectors can cause input voltages of the converter to be ascending, thereby realizing the soft switching of all switch tubes, further reducing the loss of the converter, reducing the mass and volume of an EMI filter, and increasing the power density of the system. The commutation of the primary current source full-bridge converter takes up part of action time of the active vector of the matrix converter, which leads to an increase in the system output current harmonics. Therefore, it is necessary to compensate the vector action time to reduce the output current harmonics of the converter and reduce the harmonic losses.
[0050] As shown in
1) State 1: Matrix Converter Zero Vector Function
[0051] At the beginning of the switch cycle, a current vector corresponding to the matrix converter 1.5 is the zero vector I.sub.7. At this time, the matrix converter switch tubes S.sub.21, S.sub.11, S.sub.24, and S.sub.14 are turned on, and the current source full-bridge converter switch tubes S.sub.1 and S.sub.4 are turned on. At this time, it is in an inductive energy storage stage, and there is no energy flow between the storage battery and the grid. An equivalent circuit is shown in
2) State 2: Matrix Converter Active Vector Function
[0052] After the zero vector action time has expired, the first active vector I.sub.1+ of the matrix converter starts to work. The primary bus current of the transformer flows through the switch tubes S.sub.1 and S.sub.4, and the secondary current of the transformer flows through the switch tubes S.sub.21, S.sub.11, S.sub.26, and S.sub.16. Since the capacitor voltage u.sub.ab is greater than zero, the transformer current charges output capacitors of S.sub.16 and S.sub.26, S.sub.16 and S.sub.26 are turned on at zero voltage, the secondary voltage of the transformer is equal to u.sub.ab, and the power is fed from the storage battery to the grid. An equivalent circuit is shown in
3) State 3: Matrix Converter Active Vector Function
[0053] After an action time of the active vector I.sub.1+ of the matrix converter has expired, the second active vector I.sub.2+ of the matrix converter starts to work. The primary bus current of the transformer flows through the switch tubes S.sub.1 and S.sub.4, and the secondary current of the transformer flows through the switch tubes S.sub.21, S.sub.11, S.sub.22, and S.sub.12.

An equivalent circuit is shown in
4) State 4: Current Source Full-Bridge Converter Commutation
[0054] All switch tubes of the current source full-bridge converter are turned on and enter an overlapped ON area of the primary switch tubes. The bus inductor limits a current change rate, and therefore, the switch tubes S.sub.2 and S.sub.3 are turned on at zero current. A secondary voltage is mapped to the primary side of the transformer, a leakage inductive current is decreased linearly, currents of the switch tubes S.sub.2 and S.sub.3 are increased linearly, and currents of the switch tubes S.sub.1 and S.sub.4 are decreased linearly. The overlapped ON time T.sub.d of the current source full-bridge converter can be calculated by Formula (1), and for reliable commutation, the time of T.sub.d is appropriately increased. The sum of output currents in the overlapped area is zero, and therefore, in order to reduce the output current harmonics of the converter, it is necessary to compensate the action time of the vectors of the matrix converter by using Formula (2). i.sub.Lm, L.sub.1, n.sub.p/n.sub.s, and u.sub.ac are bus current, transformer leakage inductance, transformer turn ratio, and ac-phase line voltage of an output capacitor, respectively. T.sub.1, T.sub.2, and T.sub.0 are the action times of vectors I.sub.1+, I.sub.2+, and I.sub.7, respectively, m.sub.a and θ.sub.i are the modulation ratio and the angle of space vector modulation, respectively, and T.sub.s is a switch cycle. An equivalent circuit of the current source full-bridge converter commutation stage is shown in
5) State 5: Current Source Full-Bridge Converter Freewheeling
[0055] After the overlapped ON time T.sub.d of the current source full-bridge converter has expired, the matrix converter switch tubes S.sub.12 and S.sub.22 are turned off, and S.sub.14 and S.sub.24 are turned on at zero voltage. The secondary voltage of the transformer is equal to zero, and no power is transmitted at this time. Anti-parallel diodes of the current source full-bridge converter switch tubes S.sub.1 and S.sub.4 are freewheeling, S.sub.1 and S.sub.4 are turned off at zero current, and an equivalent circuit is shown in
6) State 6: Inverter Switch Tube Being Turned On
[0056] Similar to State 1, the current vector corresponding to the matrix converter 1.5 is the zero vector I.sub.7. At this time, the matrix converter switch tubes S.sub.21, S.sub.11, S.sub.24, and S.sub.14 are turned on, and the current source full-bridge converter switch tubes S.sub.2 and S.sub.3 are turned on. At this time, it is in an inductive energy storage stage, and there is no energy flow between the storage battery and the grid. An equivalent circuit is shown in
[0057] The process is as follows: the commutation method of the matrix converter of this application is explained with reference to
[0058] The first step of commutation: the switch tube S.sub.14 is turned off, and the current is commutated from a channel of S.sub.14 to a body diode of S.sub.14.
[0059] The second step of commutation: the switch tube S.sub.26 is turned on, and the current flows through a channel of S.sub.26 and a body diode of S.sub.16.
[0060] The third step of commutation: the switch tube S.sub.24 is turned off, and the output current of the matrix converter is equal to i.sub.s.
[0061] The fourth step of commutation: the switch tube S.sub.16 is turned on, and the current is commutated from the body diode of S.sub.16 to the channel of S.sub.16, and S.sub.16 is in the synchronous rectification state. For the current source input high-frequency matrix converter shown in
[0062] 1) After a capacitor voltage u.sub.abc of a filter capacitor passes through a phase-locked loop, a frequency ω.sub.g and a phase θ.sub.g of a power grid are obtained, and a dq-axis component u.sub.gdq of the filter capacitor voltage is obtained through coordinate transformation.
[0063] 2) The dq-axis component u.sub.dq of the capacitor voltage of the filter capacitor passes through a low-pass filter to obtain a steady-state component of the capacitor voltage, and steady-state currents i.sub.gcd and i.sub.gcq of the filter capacitor are calculated by Formula 3.
[0064] 3) An error between a given bus current I.sub.dc_ref and an actual current i.sub.Lm are subjected to a PI controller to obtain a given d-axis current i.sub.gd_ref. In order to obtain a unit power factor, a given system reactive power Q.sub.g_ref is zero, and a given q-axis current i.sub.gq_ref is zero.
[0065] 4) Given d-axis and q-axis currents i.sub.gd_ref and i.sub.gd_ref compensate the steady-state currents i.sub.gcd and i.sub.gcq of the capacitor to obtain a final given current, and a Cartesian coordinate system is converted to a polar coordinate system to obtain a given DC current i.sub.dci and a trigger delay angle α;
[0066] 5) The given DC current i.sub.dci is divided with the actual current value i.sub.Lm to obtain a modulation ratio m.sub.a of the space vector modulation, the delay angle and a grid phase angle θ.sub.g may be added to obtain a modulation angle θ.sub.i, and twelve switching pulses of the matrix converter are generated by using the modulation ratio and the angle;
[0067] 6) A current overlapped time of the current source full-bridge converter may be obtained according to Formula 1, and then an output pulse of the current source full-bridge converter may be generated.
[0068] Compared with the conventional current source space vector modulation method, the space vector modulation solution used in this application not only calculates an action time of each current vector, but also adjusts an action sequence of the current vectors according to magnitudes of voltages outputted by a three-phase capacitor to achieve soft switching of all switch tubes.
