Abstract The circulating current within modular multilevel converters increases the peak/RMS value of the arm currents and the magnitude of the sub-module voltage fluctuation,and thus affects the safe operation of power electronic devices.Therefore,it is necessary to eliminate the circulating current.It is pointed that,under the unbalanced grid voltage,the second three-phase harmonic circulating current can be decomposed into positive,negative and,zero sequence components and the dc component of the three-phase circulating current is not necessary equal to each other by deriving and analyzing the phase unit instantaneous energy.The formulas of the dc component of the circulating current,i.e.the circulating current reference,are derived and a novel circulating current suppressing method,which is based on proportional-integral (PI) regulator and vector proportional-integral (VPI) regulator in parallel,is proposed.The tuning principle of the related control parameters is given.The novel circulating current suppressing method can be executed in the abc stationary reference frame so that coordinate transformation is not needed and thus it has a simple control structure.Besides that,the positive,negative,and zero sequence components of the second harmonic circulating current can be eliminated simultaneously and the method can achieve good control performance under balanced and unbalanced grid voltages.A 21-level MMC simulation model is set up in the PSCAD/EMTDC in order to validate the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed method.
