This paper proposes a new control sharing method for parallel three-phase inverters in an islanded microgrid. The proposed technique uses adaptive PIDs combined with the communication among the parallel inverters to accurately share active power and reactive power among the inverters via adjusting the desired voltage if there is a distinct difference between line impedance and the load change in the microgrid. Moreover, the paper also presents the response ability of the inverters to maintain the error within the allowed limits as the transmission line is interrupted. The proposed technique has been verified in a microgrid with three parallel distributed generation-inverter units using Matlab/Simulink. In the simulation, as the droop control using the communication information among the inverters, the sharing errors for active power and reactive power are around 0.2% and 0.6%, respectively. As the connection between the microgrid and transmission line is interrupted, the sharing errors for active power and reactive power increase to 0.4% and 2%, respectively. The simulation results have indicated that the proposed technique is superior to the traditional droop control in terms of the accuracy and stability. Therefore, the new proposed technique can be a favor alternative model for active power and reactive power sharing control of parallel inverters in an islanded microgrid.

This paper compares the performance of a wound rotor induction motor drive (WRIM) with two rotor impedance profiles. The first system involves a diode rectifier followed by variable impedance in the rotor circuit. The second system involves a three-phase variable impedance in the rotor circuit. The comparison concerns the magnitude of starting transients of stator and rotor voltages and currents, the transients settling time of the stator and rotor voltages and currents, the stator and rotor consumed active and reactive power, the electrical torque, and the stable range of operation at sub-and super-synchronous speeds. This comparison is helpful for deciding the more efficient drive to be utilized, the drive with lower harmonics in currents and voltages, and the drive allowing wider speed stable operation range. Better results are obtained for the drive with the three-phase variable impedance connected to the rotor circuit.

The optimal P-Q control issue of the active and reactive power for a microgrid in the grid-connected mode has attracted increasing interests recently. In this paper, an optimal active and reactive power control is developed for a three-phase grid-connected inverter in a microgrid by using an adaptive population-based extremal optimization algorithm (APEO). Firstly, the optimal P-Q control issue of grid-connected inverters in a microgrid is formulated as a constrained optimization problem, where six parameters of three decoupled PI controllers are real-coded as the decision variables, and the integral time absolute error (ITAE) between the output and referenced active power and the ITAE between the output and referenced reactive power are weighted as the objective function. Then, an effective and efficient APEO algorithm with an adaptive mutation operation is proposed for solving this constrained optimization problem. The simulation and experiments for a 3kW three-phase grid-connected inverter under both nominal and variable reference active power values have shown that the proposed APEO-based P-Q control method outperforms the traditional Z-N empirical method, the adaptive genetic algorithm-based, and particle swarm optimization-based P-Q control methods.

In this paper, a new steady-state model of a three-phase asynchronous motor is proposed to be used in the studies of electrical power systems. The model allows for obtaining the response of the demand for active and reactive power as a function of voltage and frequency. The contribution of the model is the integration of the characteristics of the mechanical load that can drive motors, either constant or variable load. The model was evaluated on a 2500 kW and 6000 V motor, for the two types of mechanical load, in a wide range of voltage and frequency, as well as four load factors. As a result of the evaluation, it was possible to verify that, for the nominal frequency and voltage variation, the type of load does not influence the behavior of the powers and that the reactive power is very sensitive to the voltage variation. In the nominal voltage and frequency deviation scenario, it was found that the type of load influences the behavior of the active and reactive power, especially in the variable load. The results demonstrate the importance of considering the model proposed in the simulation software of electrical power systems.
