Synchronous distributed generators (SDGs) significantly affect recloser–fuse coordination due to the high fault current contribution. This paper proposes a separated phase–current control using inverter-based distributed generators (IBDGs) to remove the effects of fault current contributions from SDGs during unsymmetrical faults. The three-phase current produced by IBDGs is independently controlled. While the total fault current is reduced by adjusting the current phase angle in the faulty phase, the energy in the DC-link capacitor (Cdc) is delivered to the grid in order to avoid the rise of DC-link voltage (Vdc) by means of injection of the active current into the nonfaulty phase. To maintain the proper grid voltage, the voltage regulation feature is installed in the IBDGs. Moreover, current estimations programmed within the IBDGs are introduced to avoid the performance degradation of separated phase–current controls caused by phasor measurement units (PMUs). The dynamic performance of the separated phase–current controls using IBDGs was evaluated using an IEEE 34-node radial test feeder. According to the simulation results, the IBDGs could eliminate the effects of fault current contributions from the SDG without interruption since the disconnections caused by excessive Vdc were prevented. They could also regulate the grid voltage in the nonfaulty phase.

<p>This paper presents an analysis of virtual-flux direct power control (VFDPC) technique for the three-phase pulse width modulation (PWM) ac-dc converter. The proposed VFDPC is developed by assuming the grid voltage and converter line filters quantities are related to a virtual three-phase ac motor. The controller works with less number of sensors by eliminating the voltage sensors used for measuring the three-phase grid voltage. The grid virtual flux which is proportional to the grid voltage will be estimated from the information of converter switching states, line current, and dc-link output voltage. Several analyses are performed in order to study the steady state and dynamic performance of the converter, particularly during the load and DC voltage output reference variations. The proportional integral (PI) controller at the outer voltage control loop of VFDPC is tuned properly and the entire PWM ac-dc converter system is simulated using MATLAB/Simulink to ensure the dc output voltage follow the desired output voltage under steady state and dynamic conditions. Ac-dc converter utilizing the proposed VFDPC is able to generate three-phase input current waveforms that are almost sinusoidal with low harmonics contents which is less than 5% and near unity power factor (<em>pf</em>) operation.</p>

With the growing of using photovoltaic (PV) units in power distribution systems, the role of high-performance power electronic converters is increasing. In this paper, modelling and control of Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) are addressed for grid integration of PV units. Designing a proper controller for MMC is crucial during faulty conditions to make the converter stable and provide proper dynamic performance. To achieve this goal, a dynamic model of MMC is presented which it includes symmetrical components of voltage and current. Then, adaptive robust current controllers are developed based on sliding mode and fuzzy controllers for MMC and then the robustness and stability of the controllers are proved by the Lyapunov theory. To implement the proposed controllers under unbalanced grid voltage fault, positive and negative sequences current controllers are implemented to compensate the effect of grid voltage fault and load power variation. Finally, numerical results are shown to evaluate the performance of MMC. In the end, the experimental results are given to prove the controller performance. The outcome indicates that the proposed current controllers are more effective under voltage disturbance conditions and could satisfy the stability of MMC.

LVRT technology is currently a hot research of wind power, but the impact on the wind turbine of grid voltage swells and HVRT technology have not been given sufficient attention. This article analyzed the converter problems of full power wind turbine on grid voltage swells and used the control strategy of reactive power control, dynamic voltage and over-modulation to enhance the full power wind turbines HVRT capability.
