Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
In this paper, a tuned controller of variable reactors is developed to realize a reliable tieline reconnection of microgrids. It is very useful to solve the problem caused by a synchronization issue during the tieline reconnection, particularly the absence of a large-area communication network to cover all microgrids. The theoretical fundamental of this method is analyzed, based on which a set of tuning processes of the variable reactors' controller is derived. The feasibility and effectiveness of this tieline reconnection method with the tuned controller is analyzed and verified by simulations. This method can greatly improve the transient stability of a nonconventional grid, which consists of multiple microgrids, require the ability of frequent reliable reconnections, and limit system oscillation to less than 50%. The tieline reconnection controller can be easily integrated with power flow control into existing variable reactor devices at low cost. Moreover, the tuning process of the controller is simple and suitable for industrial applications.
