A hardware/software co-simulation approach for power converter firmware design and debugging
Carlos Teixeira,Donald Grahame Holmes,Brendan McGrath,Richardt H. Wilkinson,Patrick McGoldrick,A. McIver +5 more
TL;DR: A hardware/software co-simulation approach to rapidly develop and validate processor firmware for modern power electronic converters that creates a near real-world firmware debugging capability that saves considerable code development time while still being safe to execute.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
High Quality Voltage Regulation of Single Phase Autonomous Microgrids Under Nonlinear Load Conditions
TL;DR: This paper applies a resonant voltage regulation system integrated with a synchronous reference frame virtual impedance loop and a phase locked loop to a single phase microgrid system operating with significant levels of nonlinear loads, showing how similar performance benefits can be achieved in this particularly difficult operating context.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Improved Controller Design for a Microgrid Fuel-Cell Based Energy Storage System
TL;DR: The design of an improved current regulated compensator for a fuel-cell energy storage system that takes the slew rate non linearity into account during microgrid load transients, while avoiding the need for more complex variable gain control system architectures is investigated.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Autonomous Current Sharing Control with Integrated Virtual Impedance and Self Synchronisation for Unbalanced Islanded Microgrids
TL;DR: A new autonomous current sharing control strategy for islanded microgrids that is simple and robust under unbalanced load conditions and avoids control complexity and the need for output current measurements, while maintaining a balanced voltage and accurate current sharing.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Analytically constrained ZVS operation to reduce commutation losses for high boost dual active bridge converters
TL;DR: In this article, harmonic decomposition analysis is used to constrain the bridge circulating currents to their minimum possible values at the point of phase leg commutation while still ensuring that ZVS operation is maintained.
