Abstract

The use of DC distribution grids for medium and low voltage level is debated in current research. One important aspect is the short circuit current calculation, whereby for practical grid planning a simplified short circuit current calculation method is desired. Thus, this paper presents a simplified short circuit current calculation method based on a superposition approach using approximated current courses. The results demonstrate that the calculation of any desired partial short circuit current is not possible. Nevertheless, the results also highlight that a rough estimation of dimensioning relevant short circuit current characteristics for current-carrying grid equipment is possible, whereas a few restrictions are given. Therefore, we cannot guarantee a general applicability of the simplified method. Thus, further development of the promising calculation method is required. However, we recommend using transient calculations for DC distribution grids until a sufficient applicability of the simplified calculation method can be guaranteed.

基于近似电流过程的叠加法简化直流配电网短路电流计算

在目前的研究中，直流配电网在中低电压水平上的应用一直存在争议。其中一个重要的方面是短路电流的计算，因此对于实际的电网规划，需要一种简化的短路电流计算方法。因此，本文提出了一种基于叠加法的简化短路电流计算方法。结果表明，不可能计算出任何期望的局部短路电流。尽管如此，结果也强调了对载流电网设备的尺寸相关短路电流特性的粗略估计是可能的，同时给出了一些限制。因此，我们不能保证简化方法的普遍适用性。因此，需要进一步发展有前途的计算方法。但是，我们建议在简化计算方法具有足够的适用性之前，对直流配电网使用暂态计算。
