The inner cascaded structure-based grid-forming control is a typical solution used to impose an AC voltage magnitude across the output filters of the power inverters. Yet, because of the limited inverter’s bandwidth resulting from the low-switching frequencies in transmission systems, the interaction (i.e., coupling) between control loops is highly likely making the understanding of the system behavior complex and its simplification unaffordable and may also lead to instabilities. The novelty of this paper consists in proposing a simple open-loop direct voltage control to reduce the number of the inner control regulators, and thereby guaranteeing a decoupling between the inner and outer control layers as well as increasing the system stability margin. This statement is well supported with a small-signal analysis and progressive order model reduction of the system. The overall concept is validated in a 10-bus grid case while comparing the EMT and Phasor-based simulations. The practical feasibility of the control itself is experimentally proved with different test cases.

PEBB (power electronics building block) systems are typical nonlinear systems. Under the conventional but still popular linear control design, the system stability margin varies from one operating point to another. This paper introduces a novel approach to monitoring the DC bus stability margin of a PEBB system online. At the steady state of the system, a small-signal perturbation current î p is injected into the DC bus, and the load-side response current î L is measured. By checking the validation |î L ( jw)| < |î p ( jw)|, the system stability margin can be examined. Experiments on a 48 V DC DPS demonstrate the proposed measurement approach. An implementation approach is also proposed for an 800 V DC PEBB-based testbed system.

The effects of rotor scale and control system lag were examined for a variable-speed wind turbine. The scale study was performed on a teetered rotor with radii ranging between 22.5m and 33.75m. A 50% increase in radius more than doubled the rated power and annual energy capture. Using blade pitch to actively control fluctuating flatwise moments allowed for significant reductions in blade mass for a fixed fatigue life. A blade operated in closed-loop mode with a 33.75m radius weighed less than an open-loop blade with a 22.5m radius while maintaining the same fatigue life of 5×109 rotations. Actuator lag reduced the effectiveness of the control system. However, 50% reductions in blade mass were possible even when implementing a relatively slow actuator with a 1 sec. time constant. Other practical limits on blade mass may include fatigue from start/stop cycles, non-uniform turbulence, tower wake effects, and wind shear. The more aggressive control systems were found to have high control accelerations near 60 deg/s2, which may be excessive for realistic actuators. Two time lags were introduced into the control system when mean wind speed was estimated in a rapidly changing wind environment. The first lag was the length of time needed to determine mean wind speed, and therefore the mean control settings. The second was the frequency at which these mean control settings were changed. Preliminary results indicate that quickly changing the mean settings (every 10 seconds) and using a moderate length mean averaging time (60 seconds) resulted in the longest fatigue life. It was discovered that large power fluctuations occurred during open-loop operation which could cause sizeable damage to a realistic turbine generator. These fluctuations are reduced by one half or more when aerodynamic loads are actively controlled.

Static Synchronous Series Compensator

<span lang="EN-US">Transient stability in power system is vital to be addressed due to large disturbances that could damage the system such as load changes and voltage increases. This paper presents a multi-machine transient stability using the Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC). SSSC is a device that is connected in series with the power transmission line and produces controllable voltage which contribute to a better performance in the power system stability. As a result, this research has observed a comparison of the synchronization of a three-phase system during single-phase faults before and after installing the SSSC device. In addition, this research investigates the ability of three different types of controllers i.e. Proportional Integral (PI), Proportional Integral Derivation (PID), and Generic controllers to be added to the SSSC improve the transient stability as it cannot operate by itself. This is because the improvement is too small and not able to achieve the desired output. The task presented is to improve the synchronization of the system and time taken for the voltage to stabilize due to the fault. The simulation result shows that the SSSC with an additional controller can improve the stability of a multi-machine power system in a single phase fault.</span>

Perturbation Compensation

The dynamic characteristics of the system that includes the controlled object and the regulator largely depend on the choice of the control law, which is determined based on the nominal values of the parameters of the mathematical model of the stabilization process and its priority indicator. Due to the deviation of the missile parameters and, accordingly, the model from the nominal values, the designers set the safety factors based on the most unfavorable conditions, which negatively affects the overall performance, in particular, the relative weight of the payload. Therefore, there is a need to develop algorithms for adjustment that is identification model parameters during the flight using the signals of measuring devices and the capabilities of on-board computers. This will increase the efficiency of methods of choosing the control law based on such indicators as stabilization accuracy, stability margin and power requirements of the actuator. The aim of the article is to develop methods for refining the parameters of the rocket stabilization system in the yawing plane, which are based on the use of current data of measuring devices of the part of coordinates of the state vector, and verify the effectiveness of refinement in terms of the above indicators. A linear stationary model of a system for stabilizing the perturbed motion of a rocket taking into account the inertia of the actuator in the form of ordinary fifth-order differential equations is adopted. Two approaches are proposed to approximate the model parameters to their actual values. In the first in the model parameter space there is a minimum of the integral of the distance between the points of the trajectory according to the signals of the measuring devices and the trajectory obtained by modeling the perturbation compensation process. In the second, the actual values of the parameters are the result of solving a system of nonlinear equations, which includes data from measuring devices and the corresponding data obtained by simulation. On the example of space rocket parameters it is shown that the choice of the control law based on the actual coefficients of the model leads to a significant reduction of deviations from the set value of the system stability margin, stabilization error and power of the actuator.

The problem of ship steering in canals and confined waters is analyzed with emphasis on stability and bifurcation analysis. The classical maneuvering equations of motion augmented with a model for ship-canal interaction are used to model open-loop dynamics. Coupling of a control law and a guidance scheme with appropriate time lags is employed to model the essential dynamics of a helmsman. The complete system is analyzed using both linear and nonlinear techniques in order to assess its stability under finite disturbances. The results indicate that for certain regions of parameters, limit cycle oscillations may develop that could compromise system stability and safety of operations.

Identification and control are important problems of power system based on ambient signals. In order to avoid the model error influence of the controller design, a new iterative identification and control method is proposed in this paper. This method can solve model set and controller design of closed-loop power system. First, an uncertain model of power system is established. Then, according to the stability margin of power system, stability theorem is put forward. And then controller design method and the whole algorithm procedure are given. Simulation results show the effective performance of the proposed method based on the four-machine-two-region system.
