Abstract
An increase in the penetration level of power plants based on renewable energy sources using power converters (PCs) has a direct impact on the dynamic characteristics of modern electric power system (EPS) and, as a consequence, the nature of the transient processes. One of the main problems in such EPS is a significant change in the magnitude of the total inertia of the system over time, which leads to an increase in the rate of change of frequency and the magnitude of its maximum deviation under various disturbances. A promising direction for solving this problem is the synthesis of new structures of PC control systems based on a virtual synchronous generator (VSG) with adaptively changing parameters. The results of the research in this area are presented in the paper, which consists of two parts. In the first part of the paper, the dependence of the adaptive algorithms efficiency for controlling the parameters of the VSG on the structure used is substantiated. A comparative analysis of the developed modified VSG structure with traditional algorithms is performed and its fundamental advantages are proved. The second part of the article presents an analysis of the influence of the modified structure parameters of the VSG on the dynamic response using time domain transient analysis. Based on the results obtained, adaptive algorithms for independent control of virtual inertia and parameters of the VSG damper winding have been developed. The performed mathematical modeling confirmed the reliable and efficient operation of the developed adaptive control algorithms and the modified structure of the VSG as a whole. From the theoretical and experimental results obtained in the paper, it follows that there is a need for simultaneous development and improvement of adaptive control algorithms and the VSG structures used for this.
