Abstract
This study presents a non-linear adaptive control (NAC) for the energy storage system (ESS) embedded dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) in enhancing the low-voltage ride through (LVRT) capability of wind farms. The proposed NAC features a perturbation observer to estimate and then compensate the real perturbation of the whole system, including parameter uncertainties, measurement noise, and external disturbances such as different grid faults and intermittent wind power. It can achieve an adaptive and robust control without requiring accurate system model and full-state measurements. This control is then applied to the ESS embedded DVR (ESS-DVR) system, in which the ESS can store the blocked wind power for potential power fluctuation suppression. Simulation studies have verified that the proposed control for ESS-DVR can effectively enhance the LVRT capability of wind farms installed with different types of WTGs under different operating conditions. Moreover, its superiority has also been demonstrated by comparing with fixed gains-based conventional vector control and accurate system model-based feedback linearising control.
