Steady-state model of multi-port electric energy router and power flow analysis method of AC/DC hybrid system considering control strategies

Abstract

This study proposes a steady-state model of multi-port electric energy router (EER) and a power flow analysis method for AC/DC hybrid system considering control strategies. Firstly, a circuit topology model of EER is put forward, including AC and DC port equivalent parts. Secondly, considering external control characteristics of EER, the control strategies including PQ mode, V/f mode, and droop mode are established, which is suitable for system analysis. Then, using the extended sub-network model, an AC/DC power flow model containing multi-port EER is established. In terms of the power flow algorithm for AC/DC hybrid system, AC/DC network admittance matrix and the extended AC/DC network modification equations are applied to solve the problem. Two examples are designed and show that EER can be used for flexible power regulation and voltage improvement. Besides, power flow analysis method of AC/DC hybrid system is demonstrated to be effective.
