Research on Virtual DC Generator-Based Control Strategy of DCMicrogrid with Photovoltaic and Energy Storage

With the penetration of a large number of photovoltaic power generation units and power electronic converters,the DC microgrid shows low inertia characteristics,which might affect the stable operation of the microgrid in extreme cases.In order to enhance the“flexible features”of the interface converter connected to the DC bus,a control strategy of DCmicrogrid with photovoltaic and energy storage based on the virtual DC generator(VDCG)is proposed in this paper.The interface converters of the photovoltaic power generation system and the energy storage system simulates the inertia and damping characteristics of the DC generator to improve the stability of the DC bus voltage.The impedance ratio of DC microgrid was obtained by establishing the small-signal model of photovoltaic power generation system and energy storage system,and the Nyquist curves was applied to analyze the small-signal stability of the system.Finally,the simulation results were verified with MATLAB/Simulink.The results show that the proposed control strategy can slow down the fluctuation of bus voltage under the conditions of photovoltaic power fluctuation and load mutation,thus enhancing the system stability.

Plant Community Survey of National Photovoltaic and Energy Storage Empirical Experiment Platform(Daqing Base)

[Objectives] This study was conducted to explore the characteristics of natural grassland plant communities in the National Photovoltaic and Energy Storage Empirical Experiment Platform(Daqing Base), so as to provide data reference for local grassland resources. [Methods] June to July, 2022, standard plot site investigation was carried out to investigate vegetation species, relative height, relative coverage, relative abundance, relative frequency and dominance in the National Photovoltaic and Energy Storage Empirical Experiment Platform in Datong District, Daqing City of Heilongjiang Province, and to analyze plant community structures in the photovoltaic DC field. [Results] The photovoltaic DC field contained 22 species of plants, of which Suaeda salsa was the common species. The dominant species in photovoltaic DC field were Leymus chinensis, Eleocharis intersita, Carex duriuscula and Carex rugurosa. [Conclusions] The dominant vegetation types were Poaceae and Cyperaceae in the natural grassland of the National Photovoltaic and Energy Storage Empirical Experiment Platform(Daqing Base).

Research on Phase-Shifted Full-Bridge Circuit Based on Frequency and Phase-Shift Synthesis Modulation Strategy

The full-bridge converters usually use transformer leakage inductance and parallel resonant capacitors to achieve smooth current commutation and soft switching functions,which can easily cause problems such as energy leakage and significant duty cycle loss.This paper designs a novel full-bridge zero-current(FB-ZCS)converter with series resonant capacitors and proposes a frequency and phase-shift synthesis modulation(FPSSM)control strategy based on this topology.Compared with the traditional parallel resonant capacitor circuit,the passive components used are significantly reduced,the structure is simple,and there is only a slight energy loss.By controlling the charging time of the capacitor,it can be achieved without additional switches or auxiliary circuits.The automatic control of capacitor energy based on input current addresses the low efficiency of the traditional control strategies.This paper introduces its principle in detail and verifies it through simulation.Finally,an experimental prototype was built further to demonstrate the feasibility of the theory through experiments.The module can be applied to a photovoltaic DC collection system using input parallel output series(IPOS)cascade to provide a new topology for large-scale,long-distance DC transmission.
