Abstract
By using power electronic devices, photovoltaic grid-connected power generation may inject harmonics into the power system. As the photovoltaic grid-connected inverter has the same basic structure as the active power filter, so the unified control of the photovoltaic grid and active filtering can be achieved. When the current unified control system compensates harmonics of the grid side, it mainly uses ip-iq harmonic detection method, which is based on instantaneous reactive power theory. When the three-phase voltage is unbalanced, the method has a large voltage phase angle detection error and the signal of the low-pass filter tracking system is long, detection time delay and even failure occur. This paper proposes an improved fast harmonic detection method. When phase deviation or amplitude change occurs to the three-phase voltage, the positive and negative-sequence voltages are simultaneously park transformed. The negative-sequence component is filtered by the current average module to obtain the fundamental amount of the voltage, then the phase angle of the positive-sequence voltage is accurately calculated to improve the harmonic current detection accuracy. Through the study of the integral method, it is found that the least common multiple of each harmonic period can be used as the integral interval, and the integral value is also zero, so the detection delay time is reduced by replacing the low-pass filter with an integration module. The simulation results show that the proposed harmonic detection algorithm can accurately detect harmonics when the three-phase voltage is unbalanced, and about 0.057 s improve the harmonic detection speed compared with the commonly used ip-iq method.
