Background technology
Continuous development along with the airplane power source technology; Large Civil Aircraft power supply system just transits to frequency-changing AC power supply system from existing constant-speed and constant-frequency, speed change constant speed gradually; Variable frequency AC power system is directly given back level electric through brushless AC generator; Can effectively improve the capacity and the efficient of electricity generation system; And can directly adopt distribution element, accessory power supply, APU generator and emergency power supply in the power-supply system of constant frequency 400Hz, the various load in can the be compatible existing constant frequency power system, so frequency-converting power supply is just becoming the first-selection when nearly large-scale civil aircraft power-supply system.The state-of-the-art large-scale civil aircraft such as the A380 of Air Passenger company, the B787 of Boeing adopt this variable frequency AC power system just at present, have formed the high-power frequency conversion AC power series of products of separate unit capacity to 250kVA abroad.There is very large difference more abroad in China's airplane power source compared with techniques; Though domestic aircraft power system carries out the transition to the constant frequency AC source from low-voltage direct; But ripe goods shelf products quantity is few, and capacity also in 60kVA, is difficult to be applicable to the demand of large-scale civil aircraft power-supply system.Therefore the large-scale seating plane of greatly developing in current China under the new situation, novel aviation variable frequency AC power system will become the important developing direction of civil aircraft power-supply system.
Since the fifties in last century, the constant-speed and constant-frequency power-supply system was applied to Aircraft Electrical System; The aviation alternator type has only two kinds of three grades of formula synchronous machines and magnetoes, and magneto needs special tripping mechanism action owing to be applied to exist in the aviation power system intrinsic defective after the fault; Be difficult to satisfy the requirement of aviation power system high reliability; Therefore, five during the last ten years, and generator all adopts three grades of formula brushless synchronous machines in the aircraft AC power supply system.Also be to adopt three grades of formula brushless synchronous machines at present in the state-of-the-art large-scale civil aircraft variable frequency AC power system; Just three grades of formula synchronous machines are only used as generator in the frequency-converting power supply of A380; And in the more advanced B787 variable frequency AC power system; These three grades of formula brushless synchronous machines realized starting, the generating difunctional, realized the starting-generating integration operation.
In three grades of formula brushless synchronous machines because the existence of rotating rectifier; Be applied in the variable frequency AC power system as the starter time spent; Promptly operate in motoring condition, need begin starting from static, but this moment, exciter rotor remained static; Exciting current can't be provided, cause main generator excitation difficulty and have the problem that to start.Be generally and realize three grades of formula brushless synchronous machine starting operation functions, need pass to single-phase alternating current, need not to change the rotor winding construction of exciter the exciter stator excitation winding; Make exciter be operated in the form of similar transformer; Promptly utilize transformer EMF, in its armature rotor winding, induce voltage, pass through rotating rectifier again; For the main generator excitation winding provides exciting current, the main generator excitation function when realizing that brushless synchronous machine is static.This single phase alternating current (A.C.) excitation mode need not change the exciter stator winding construction; Directly the excitation winding of exciter is carried out AC excitation; But when the DC excitation winding was fed single-phase alternating current, the transformer EMF of responding in the armature rotor winding was the pulsating form, and energy transmission efficiency is lower; Make that main generator is difficult to obtain enough exciting currents, output is torque limited when causing starting operation.Therefore this single phase alternating current (A.C.) excitation mode only is applicable to three grades of formula synchronous motor starting electricity generation systems of middle low power grade usually.When three grades of formula brushless synchronous machines are applied to high-power frequency conversion interchange starting-generating system; Need adjust the structure and the control mode thereof of exciter,, on the basis of its stator DC excitation winding, increase by a cover three phase excitation winding through changing the stator winding structure of exciter; Perhaps substitute the DC excitation winding of original structure with the three phase excitation winding; It is passed to three-phase alternating current, and when rotor was static, this exciter equivalence became three-phase transformer; Induce three-phase alternating current in rotor-side, to main generator excitation is provided through rectifier bridge.
At present; External each big aviation electric corporation; As the Chinese win (Hamilton Sundstrand), Honeywell (Honeywell International), Smith's aviation (Smiths Aerospace), General Electric (GE) waits and has all early carried out three grades of formula brushless synchronous machine starting-generating integration Study on Technology, to the exciter winding construction design aspect application of single-phase, three-phase AC excitation mode and correspondence and protected number of patents.In recent years along with variable frequency power supply power supply system the applying gradually of large aircraft electrical system, be applied to variable frequency power supply starting-generating system and three-phase AC excitation control has proposed multiple design again to three grades of formula synchronous machines.The U.S. Pat 7687928B2 of Smiths Aerospace protection in 2010; Propose to adopt two cover excitation winding, a cover three phase excitation winding is applied to the operation of starting initial stage, and a cover DC excitation winding is applied to the later stage and the generating pressure regulation stage of start-up period; Two cover AC and DC excitation winding are separately positioned in the exciter; Generally after AC excitation was accomplished, the AC excitation winding no longer was used, and has greatly reduced the utilance of exciter winding.This patent with two brachium pontis in the three-phase inverter of AC excitation after excitation mode switches; Be applied to the DC excitation power supply; Though saved independently DC excitation converter; But four switches of DPDT still need be set, the AC and DC winding is switched, can realize the integrated function of AC and DC excitation.Smiths Aerospace has proposed a kind of independent three-phase AC excitation winding realization AC and DC excitation function that adopts at the U.S. Pat 2009/0174188A1 of application in 2009; The starting initial stage is adopted three-phase AC excitation; Starting later stage and power generating stage become single-phase through switch with the three-phase windings in series, utilize the three-phase inverter of AC excitation to realize DC excitation function.This scheme utilizes the switch setting to carry out the change of excitation winding structure, has realized the switching of AC and DC excitation mode, has improved the utilance of exciter winding, and this patent only needs a cover converter can realize the AC and DC excitation function.But for realizing that exciter three-phase alternating current winding is from the star-like switching that is connected to the DC series mode; Need increase by 3 bidirectional switchs at least; Wherein two switches connect the neutral point of converter the 3rd brachium pontis and winding respectively in the AC excitation stage; DC excitation stage the 3rd brachium pontis excises from field circuit, and the 3rd switch switches to the direct current winding with the three-phase AC excitation winding, utilizes two phase brachium pontis to realize DC excitation function.
In the frequency-changing AC starting-generating system that adopts three grades of formula synchronous machines; Three-phase AC excitation control is applied to preliminary stage; After motor speed acquires a certain degree, after the employing DC excitation has the AC excitation same effect, promptly can switch to the DC excitation mode.Adopt diverter switch the three-phase AC excitation windings in series to be become in the process of direct current winding in the above-mentioned patent scheme; Because the time-delay characteristics of diverter switch; Will the output of exciter stator winding be exerted an influence; Make that changing appears in the main generator excitation electric current, influence output torque causes starting to go wrong.Therefore, in frequency-changing AC starting-generating system, on the basis that the main generator armature supply is controlled, steadily realize the AC and DC excitation control of exciter, significant to the start-up function of smooth realization engine.

Embodiment
Three grades of formula synchronous machine AC and DC excitation control change device structures are as shown in Figure 1.Exciter stator three phase winding two ends connect a cover three-phase power converters respectively, and two cover converter DC sides all connect field power supply U
DcPreliminary stage, to low-speed stage, two cover power inverters adopt improved SVPWM control strategy, for three-phase stator winding provides alternating current from static; High speed and generator operation stage, through the direct control to each phase excitation winding electric current of stator, equivalence constitutes the DC excitation winding, realizes the weak magnetic speed-up and the Regulation Control in generator operation stage.
Two cover power inverters can adopt SVPWM control respectively among the present invention, and the voltage vector of every cover power inverter is as shown in Figure 2.Because two cover converters can independently be controlled; During Comprehensive Control, its voltage vector can synthesize 64 synthesized voltage vectors, on the vector basis of converter 1; Respectively with A, B, C, D, E, F benchmark (O ') as converter 2; The vector of stack converter 2 constitutes the synthetic synthetic vector figure of voltage, and is as shown in Figure 3.When conventional single cover power inverter drives power supply to the motor of Y-connection, the three-phase winding voltage balance of motor, wherein every phase winding voltage max is 2U

Dc, the OG voltage vector in this on off state corresponding diagram 3 is so the length of OG voltage vector is U
Dc, so this voltage vector building-up process be not simply with the cover of two among Fig. 2 converter separately vector length carry out addition.
Because there is not neutral point in motor three phase windings in this programme, can't eliminate in the winding three multiple subharmonic automatically, therefore the effect of OG, OI, OK, OM, OP and the OR in the synthesized voltage vector shown in Figure 3 will cause producing in the motor windings triple-frequency harmonics.Be example with synthesized voltage vector G, as shown in Figure 1, converter 1,2 is respectively at U

Three the multiple subharmonic voltage amplitude that produces does
This third harmonic voltage amplitude is non-vanishing, makes to be applied to that voltage contains triple-frequency harmonics on the motor windings, and when the starting process AC excitation, this tertiary voltage harmonic wave will weaken the effect of three-phase AC excitation.Therefore in resultant vector, rejected the voltage vector of the multiple subharmonic of above-mentioned generation 3 among the present invention, constituted system synthesis voltage vector-diagram as shown in Figure 4, its inscribed circle is maximum synthesized voltage vector running orbit, and amplitude is 3/4U
Dc, the SVPWM control mode of the independent converter of comparing, the direct current utilance can improve 29.9% in this programme.When exciter is realized the AC excitation function; Can improve the frequency of three-phase alternating current in this control strategy effectively; The voltage utilization that improves can be offset the increase of exciter stator winding impedance, makes exciter be operated in saturated output state, improves the energy transmission efficiency of AC excitation.

The working method of other sectors is similar; Definite interval division according to each sector; Through coordinating control, can in whole periodic regime, in the exciter stator winding, synthesize the alternating voltage of required amplitude and frequency through two cover converters, accomplish the AC excitation controlled function.
After the starter rotating speed reached the excitation switching point, need not among the present invention increased outside contactor, utilized the power circuit of two cover converters of AC excitation can make every cross streams excitation winding all can carry out the control of bidirectional current through a H brachium pontis.Therefore switching to from AC excitation the DC excitation process, respectively the electric current of every phase winding is directly controlled, wherein passed through T
