Abstract

In this paper, a virtual inertia and damping control (VIDC) strategy is proposed to enable bidirectional DC (bi-DC) converter to dampen the voltage oscillation, using the energy stored in energy storage system (ESS) to emulate the inertia of DC microgrid (DC-MG) without modifications of system hardware. Both inertia part and damping part are modelled in the VIDC regulator, by analogizing with DC machine. Droop control is introduced to achieve multi-parallel operation of ESS. Further, its small signal model is established and the dynamic characteristic of the DC bus voltage during power fluctuation is analyzed. A 2nd-order equivalent model is introduced to simplify the parameters design. By analyzing the control performance indices, the VIDC parameters are optimized. At last, based on the principle of equivalent machine, an inertia matching method of the multi-parallel bi-DC converters is proposed. The simulation results verify that ESS, by acting as a synthetic inertia, can improve the voltage dynamic characteristics and stability in islanded DC-MG. Compared with other control methods, it has better control effect. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
