Abstract
A virtual synchronous generator (VSG) strategy can introduce the rotational inertia and damping characteristics of the synchronous generator to the static inverter, e.g., PV, wind generation, and ESS, which are used to enhance the system frequency support characteristics of the micro-grid. However, under various operations of the VSG, the inertia and damping support capabilities are different, and the conventional VSG strategy with a fixed control coefficient sacrifices a certain degree of dynamic regulation performance with less robustness. This research proposes an improved VSG strategy with adaptive inertia and damping coefficients to increase the flexibility of VSG. To this end, a mathematical model is first established to analyze the impact of various parameters on the characteristics of VSG, and then the root trajectory is used to explore the impacts of various rotational inertia and damping coefficients on the stability of the VSG system. Second, an improved control strategy with adaptive inertia and damping coefficients is proposed based on the characteristics of the second-order system and the system frequency deviations. Finally, a simulation system with the VSG is constructed based on MATLAB/Simulink. The effectiveness of the proposed control strategy is verified by comparing the simulation results to the conventional control strategy with the fixed control coefficients under over-frequency and under-frequency disturbances.
