And S2, each control unit detects the voltage of the direct current bus capacitor in the corresponding power module.
And S3, when the voltage of the direct current bus capacitor in any power module is greater than a preset voltage value, sending a charging instruction to the control unit corresponding to the power module to control the auxiliary source corresponding to the power module to charge.
And S4, when the voltage of the direct current bus capacitors in all the power modules reaches a preset voltage value, sending a charging stopping instruction to the control unit corresponding to the power module to control the auxiliary source corresponding to the power module to stop charging.
Steps S3 and S4 are sequentially performed at a plurality of incremented preset voltage values.
For example, first, when the voltage of the dc bus capacitor in any power module is greater than Umax/2, a charging instruction may be sent to the control unit corresponding to the power module to control the auxiliary source corresponding to the power module to charge; and when the voltage of the direct current bus capacitors in all the power modules reaches Umax/2, sending a charging stopping instruction to the control unit corresponding to the power module so as to control the auxiliary source corresponding to the power module to stop charging. And then, the charging and the stopping of the charging of the auxiliary source are controlled by sequentially using preset voltage values of 3Umax/5, 7Umax/10, 4Umax/5 and 9Umax/10, so that the voltages of the direct current bus capacitors in the plurality of power modules can gradually approach the balance.
After the power electronic transformer system is started to operate, a discharging instruction can be sent to the control unit corresponding to each power module, so that each control unit controls the auxiliary source to discharge to the control part of the corresponding power module according to the discharging instruction.
According to the voltage-sharing control method of the direct current bus capacitor in the power electronic transformer system of the embodiment of the invention, by detecting the voltage of the direct current bus capacitor in each power module, when the voltage of the direct current bus capacitor in any power module in the pre-charging process of the power electronic transformer is larger than the preset voltage value, the auxiliary source corresponding to the power module is controlled to be charged so as to prevent the voltage of the direct current bus capacitor in the power module from further increasing, and when the voltage of the direct current bus capacitor in all the power modules reaches the preset voltage value, the auxiliary source corresponding to the power module is controlled to stop charging so as to continuously increase the voltage of the direct current bus capacitor in the power module, and the voltage-sharing of each direct current bus capacitor can be realized during the pre-charging of the power electronic transformer without arranging a balancing resistor in a circuit of the power electronic transformer system, the energy consumption can be reduced, and the system efficiency is improved.
In addition, when the voltage of the direct current bus capacitor in a certain power module is not received within the preset time, the power module is judged to be in fault.
