Abstract:

Virtual Synchronous Machines (VSMs) have been proposed during the last decade as possible solutions for integrating the increasing amount of power electronics-based grid connected converters in the utility grid. One of their main characteristics is the ability to self-synchronize themselves to the main grid without the need of a dedicated unit, since they can reproduce the power synchronization mechanism of a synchronous machine (SM). Different control strategies have been proposed in the literature based on the aforementioned principle. The aim of this work is to provide a generalized formulation of a power synchronization based (PSB) control algorithm, outlining the different loops constituting the control and to give an overview of the solutions proposed in the literature. Similarities along with advantages and drawbacks of each formulation are highlighted in the paper and time-domain simulation in MATLAB/SimulinkIPLECS are performed to compare the performance of the different solutions.
