To address the circulating current issue among parallel battery clusters in energy storage systems, a series-connected step-up partial-power equalizer is proposed, which optimizes transmission efficiency and power density of the equalizer by introducing partial power conversion technology. Aiming at the control problem of two different power flows in the partial-power equalizer, a duty-cycle-based power flow control method is proposed, and a detailed analysis of the equalizer’s working states under the proposed control method is conducted, which realizes effective control and bi-directional flow capability for both the base power flow and the adjustment power flow. For the degradation of system performance caused by the inconsistency of battery clusters, a parallel-battery-clusters power equalization control method is proposed, which suppresses the power circulation issue among parallel battery clusters. Finally, experimental results verify the effectiveness of the proposed partial-power equalizer and its control method.
根据标准IEEE Standard 1459—2010[24],非有功功率Npart指所有在直流变换器中流动但没有产生有功功率的功率[8,21,25]. 部分功率均衡器的非有功功率主要受内部结构的影响. 由图2可知,在变换器外部结构中直流母线和储能电池共地,导致内部结构中输入/输出端口无法共地,变换器应采用隔离型直流变换拓扑;同时,为满足储能系统的双向功率流动需求,部分功率均衡器需要具有双向功率流控制能力.
