An Active Power Dynamic Oscillation Damping Method for the Grid-Forming Virtual Synchronous Generator Based on Energy Reshaping Mechanism

Abstract

The grid-forming virtual synchronous generator (GFVSG) with large virtual inertia can provide a friendly grid-connected operational mode for power electronic converters, but it may also introduce the active power dynamic oscillation problems similar to traditional synchronous generators. In view of this, the dynamic equivalent circuit model of the GFVSG grid-tied active power-angle is established firstly, and, then, the understanding of the GFVSG active power oscillations under variable disturbances is revealed from the perspective of circuit energy flow in this paper. On this basis, an active power dynamic oscillation damping method based on an energy reshaping mechanism for the GFVSG is proposed, and a parameter design method using the second-order equivalent reduced-order control model is given. The MATLAB 2016a simulation as well as experimental test platforms of a 100 kV·A GFVSG grid-connected system are established, then, both the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed active power dynamic oscillation damping method are verified by using the simulation and experimental comparison results.
