In this paper, the unstable region of the islanded AC microgrid with VSG is investigated, to guide the choices of virtual inertia and damping constant. This paper is organized as follows. In
This paper introduces a unique approach that leverages bidirectional virtual inertia support to enhance the stability and reliability of hybrid AC/DC microgrids under weak grid conditions. The proposed strategy
However, the existing VSM control methods of the active power mainly focus on the inertia improvement of frequency in AC microgrid or the inertia improvement of voltage in DC microgrid. There have been a few types
The root loci plots are used to study the behavior of the ac microgrid with respect to variation in parameters of proposed controller. The effectiveness of the controller is validated using
To increase the inertia of the microgrid, the concept of virtual synchronisation machine (VSM) is proposed in [ 16 ].
Therefore, the inertia of the hybrid microgrid is significantly enhanced in the proposed VSM control of the BMC with proper and coordinated virtual synchronisation parameters. Another situation of load fluctuation is conducted where initial active load demand in AC and DC subgrid is 40 and 60 kW, respectively.
It is obvious that the dynamic loads added more inertia to the AC microgrid and hence supported the microgrid and created better frequency. The DC voltage of the DC microgrid is plotted in Figure 14. Finally, Figure 15 depicts the dynamic response of the proposed virtual inertia controller when increasing the load torque of the dynamic loads by 3%.
Introduction The inertia constant of the microgrid is determined by its total rotating kinetic energy . Distributed generators based on non-spinning power electronics would greatly reduce the system’s overall inertia coefficient as a result of the widespread use of renewable energy sources such as solar power.
In a hybrid AC/DC microgrid, AC and DC DGs have connected to AC and DC buses appropriately and the two subgrids are tied by the bidirectional AC/DC main converter (BMC). The centralised control scheme of hybrid AC/DC microgrid based on the high-speed communication is introduced in [ 6 – 8 ].
A comparative analysis of AC microgrid control techniques are presented in tabular form. The comparative performance analysis of proposed review with several existing surveys of AC microgrid is summarized. A critical review on technical challenges in the field of AC microgrid control operations is presented.
