As one of effective regulation methods, static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) has been widespread used to regulate dynamic reactive power and solve dynamic voltage stability problems into powergrid. Through the analysis of mathematical model, cascaded STATCOM, which is constructed by several cascaded H-bridges, is a nonlinear, multivariable, strongly coupled system. It will make difficulties...

The doubly-fed generators (DFIG) have clear superiority for the applications of large capacity and limited-range speed control case due to the partially rated inverter, lower cost and high reliability. These characteristics enable the doubly-fed wound rotor induction machine to have vast applications in wind-driven generation.In this paper Combined Vector and direct power control (CVDPC) strate...

As a new swarm intelligence algorithm after Ant Colony Algorithm (ACA), Immune Particle Swarm Optimization (IPSO) is currently an important branch of evolutionary algorithm. Its basic idea is influenced and inspired by research results of their modeling and simulation of behaviors of swarms of birds in earlier periods. And their model and simulation algorithm mainly took use of biologist Frallk...

Microturbine generation system is one of the most promising and a fast growing distributed generation sources. It is used in various applications thanks to high efficiency, quick start and high reliability. Combination of the microturbine and storage system (e.g. battery bank) is desirable selection to satisfy the load requirements under all conditions and hence the battery bank can play an imp...

In this paper, a novel and simple control strategy, based on state feedback method is suggested to control the power injection system (PIS). The considered PIS is composed of, a DC voltage source, a voltage source inverter (VSI) and a L-C-L filter. The DC source includes the battery source with boosted voltage. The battery can be charged with photovoltaic cells. Since, the grid voltage acts as ...

In grid-connected converter control, grid voltage feedforward is usually introduced to suppress the influence of the grid voltage distortion on the converter’s grid-side AC current. However, Owing to the time-delay in the control system, the suppression effect of grid voltage distortion is seriously affected. In this paper, the positive effects of the grid voltage feedforward control are analyz...

This paper deals with sliding mode control of converter and its application to distributed generation. Sliding mode control is used to control the voltage source converter in voltage or current control mode. Modeling and control of H bridge converter system using sliding mode control is proposed. Easily implemented sliding surfaces provide prominent dynamic characteristics against changes in th...

This work presents a Comparative study of closed and open loop control system using UPF control strategy for standalone variable speed wind turbine permanent magnet synchronous generator employing space vector modulation voltage source converter. The mechanical energy required to drive the generator is obtained from variable speed wind turbine. Three phase PMSG is excited from three phase VSC. ...

As usual, the microgrid operates in grid-connect mode, but, when a fault occurs in the upstream grid, it should disconnect and shift into islanded operation mode. In grid-connect mode, the controlling power at the PCC is necessary management function rather than the frequency and voltage. However, the controlling the frequency and voltage is asked in islanded mode. To achieve these management g...
