Frequency Stability Assessment of Grid-Forming VSG in Framework of MPME With Feedforward Decoupling Control Strategy.

Virtual synchronous generator (VSG), recognized as a grid-friendly control technique, contributes to providing inertia and damping support from the grid-tied power electronic systems. However, similar to the conventional synchronous generator, the VSG is vulnerable to wideband oscillations and can even become unstable when the system is subjected to a variety of disturbances. To tackle this issue, this article proposes a magnitude-phase motion equation (MPME) for grid-forming VSG attached to a weak grid. Besides, a feedback analytical method is introduced to identify the frequency dynamic stability, judged by the sign of (dω/dt)/δω. Besides, the rate of change of frequency (RoCoF) and frequency nadir (FN) are evaluated by the two indices, i.e., dω/dt and δω. In addition, the relationship between the low-inertia-RoCoF-FN-related stability and the weak-damping-oscillation-related stability is illustrated by the feedback analysis. Moreover, in the framework of MPME, a reactive-power feedforward (RPFF) decoupling control strategy is proposed for the enhancement of stability and robustness performance of the VSG system. Finally, the proposed modeling and the RPFF decoupling control strategy are demonstrated with the experiments. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
