Provision for Guaranteed Inertial Response in Diesel-Wind Systems via Model Reference Control
TLDR
In this paper, a model reference control based inertia emulation strategy is proposed for diesel-wind systems, where a typical frequency response model with parametric inertia is set to be the reference model.Abstract:
Frequency performance has been a crucial issue for islanded microgrids. On the one hand, most distributed energy resources are converter-interfaced and do not inherently respond to frequency variations. On the other hand, current inertia emulation approach cannot provide guaranteed response. In this paper, a model reference control based inertia emulation strategy is proposed for diesel-wind systems. Desired inertia can be precisely emulated through the proposed strategy. A typical frequency response model with parametric inertia is set to be the reference model. A measurement at a specific location delivers the information about the disturbance acting on the diesel-wind system to the reference model. The objective is for the speed of the diesel generator to track the reference so that the desired inertial response is realized. In addition, polytopic parameter uncertainty will be considered. The control strategy is configured in different ways according to different operating points. The parameters of the reference model are scheduled to ensure adequate frequency response under a predefined worst case. The controller is implemented in a nonlinear three-phase diesel-wind system fed microgrid using the Simulink software platform. The results show that exact synthetic inertia can be emulated and adequate frequency response is achieved.read more
