Line-interactive uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems are good candidates for providing energy storage within a microgrid. In this paper, a control scheme for a line-interactive UPS system applied in a low-voltage microgrid is presented. It is based on the Q-w and P-E droop control to achieve a seamless transition between grid-connected and stand-alone operation modes. Moreover, a new model for designing the controllers is built in the dq-frame based on the instantaneous power definition. The new-built model takes into account the dynamic performance of the output impedance of the inverter in the dq-frame and can be evaluated in the time domain. Compared to the traditional model based on the instantaneous power definition, the new-built model is more accurate to describe the dynamic performance of the system. Simulation and experimental results obtained with a microgrid consisting of two 40-kW line-interactive UPS systems are given to validate the control strategy of the line-active UPS system and the accuracy of the new-built model.

In this paper, a new speed sensorless control based on an instantaneous reactive power and a fuzzy PI compensator are proposed for the interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) drives. The conventional fixed gain PI and PID controllers are very sensitive to step change of command speed, parameter variations and load disturbance. Also, to the estimated speeds are compensated by using an instantaneous reactive power in synchronously rotating reference frame. In a fuzzy compensator, the system control parameters are adjusted by a fuzzy rule based system, which is a logical model of the human behavior for process control. The effectiveness of algorithm is confirmed by the experiments.

This paper presents a new speed sensorless control method of a permanent magnet synchronous motor based on instantaneous reactive power. The proposed algorithm is constructed by instantaneous reactive power in a synchronously rotating reference frame and is not affected by mechanical motor parameters, because mechanical equation is not used. The effectiveness of the proposed system is confirmed by the experimental results.

Recently, there have been Increasing demands for high power factor and low harmonic distortion in the current drawn from utility. The harmonic limits imposed by international standards. It need the PFC techniques in order to reduce line current harmonics and comply with the standards. The average current control method that is the most proper PFC control method in a switching power supply of middle and high power has been used mostly to PFC control method. However, the switching device of PFC circuit has frequently destructed at power return after instantaneous power interrupt. Therefore, this paper have verified the cause of this problems and proposed the solution through simulation and experiment

This paper describes an instantaneous reactive power compensator aimed at the compensation of reactive power and current harmonics of a thyristor load. A new definition of the instantaneous reactive power consisting of both displacement of fundamental current and harmonic distortion current is proposed and the physical meaning is investigated from the viewpoint of an instantaneous power flow. The instantaneous reactive power is calculated from the feedback of instantaneous voltage, current and is compensated by the current controlled PWM converter connected in parallel with the load. The PWM converter operates as a high performance current control scheme, because adopts the excellent current controlled PWM technique based on the current deviation vector. Both simulation and experimental results show good compensating performances in steady and transient state.

This paper investigates control algorithms for a doubly fed induction generator with a back-to-back three-level neutral-point clamped voltage source converter in medium voltage wind power system under unbalanced grid conditions. Control algorithms to compensate for unbalanced conditions have been investigated with respect to four performance factors; fault ride-through capability, instantaneous active power pulsation, harmonic distortions, and torque pulsation. The control algorithm having zero amplitude of torque ripple shows the most cost-effective performance concerning torque pulsation. The least active power pulsation is produced by control algorithm that nullifies the oscillating component of the instantaneous stator active and reactive power. Combination of these two control algorithms depending on the operating requirements and depth of grid unbalance presents most optimized performance factors under the generalized unbalanced operating conditions leading to high performance DFIG wind turbine system. The proposed control algorithms are verified through transient response in the simulation.

The parallel inverter is popularly used because of its fault-tolerance capability, high-current outputs at constant voltages and system modularity. The conventional parallel inverter usually employes active and reactive power control or frequency and voltage droop control. However, these approaches have the disadvantages that the response time of parallel inverter control is slow against load and system parameter variation to calculate active, reactive power, frequency and voltage. This paper describes a novel control scheme for power equalization in parallel connected inverter. The proposed scheme has a fast power balance control response, a simplicity of implementation, and inherent peak current limiting capability since it employes a instantaneous current/voltage control with output voltage and current balance and output voltage regulation. A design procedure for the proposed parallel inverter controller is presented. Futhermore, the proposed control scheme is verified through the simulation in various cases such as the system parameter variation, the control parameter variation and the nonlinear load condition.
