文摘虚拟同步机VSG(virtual synchronous generator)通过模拟同步机特性为新能源并网提供惯性和阻尼。然而,电力电子开关器件高频开关过程中可能会发生断路故障,导致输出电流波形严重畸变,影响电网安全稳定运行。针对中点箝位型NPC(neutral point clamped)三电平VSG桥臂故障问题,提出一种中点电压均衡的VSG容错模型预测控制策略。分析NPC三电平VSG单相桥臂故障后运行机理,在开关器件故障后利用直流侧电容组成虚拟桥臂,重构为VSG桥臂故障容错结构。建立故障情况下预测电流模型,重构故障状态空间电压矢量,将直流侧中点电容电压引入容错模型代价函数,减小电容电压波动,实现VSG桥臂故障容错运行。实验结果表明,在开关器件发生故障后,NPC三电平VSG能容错连续运行,验证了所提模型预测容错控制策略的有效性,提高了VSG运行可靠性。
