文摘针对静止同步补偿器(static synchronous compensator,STATCOM)在无功补偿以及抑制电压频繁波动等场景下的优良特性,对STATCOM的V-I输出特性进行详细分析,说明其参与电压控制的原理以及和容抗器相比具有的优越性。为了增大STATCOM的无功裕度,使之有足够的能力应对电力系统可能出现的各种扰动,提出STATCOM接入系统的各种控制模式,以及在稳态电压控制模式下的无功置换策略和远方自动电压控制(automatic voltage control,AVC)模式下的无功置换优化方法。在远方AVC模式下,以STATCOM无功置换后出力最小和容抗器动作次数最少为目标函数,将容抗器投切次数作为罚函数引入到目标函数中,并讨论罚函数系数的确定方法和合理性。结果表明,该无功置换优化模型可以满足调压的同时最大限度地提升STATCOM的无功裕度,同时可以使容抗器的动作次数最少。
