Blog Article
In a conventional AC distribution system, the conservation voltage reduction (CVR) strategy is widely employed to lower down the voltage of specific load to lower the power consumption.The wide applicability of demand side management (DSM) using CVR in a stand-alone microgrid through VSI-based energy sources is a thrust area, that is, not examined yet and needs to be explored.The fast dynamics and flexible control are the characteristics of the voltage-current droop method which further increases the inertia of the voltage source inverter.For utilizing these Satchel advantages of this droop method, it is required to determine the accurate droop gain to properly coordinate the distribution of power among DGs.
In this paper, the voltage-current droop method is utilized to carry out the function of DSM, and a modified droop computation method for voltage-current droop is formulated to determine the impedance from initial of the DG point to the downstream end for multifeeder network.As most of the droop control techniques emulate the conventional power grid such as Q-V droop control which reduces voltage with the increase of reactive power, the research prospect is very high in devising the new droop computation method for voltage-current droop for accurate control of power.In addition to it, the work is extended to apply the benefits of voltage-current droop to execute DSM strategy in standalone MG.Moreover, the capability of the proposed estimation of droop parameter is implemented on a standalone 5-bus single-feeder multi-DGs network, and furthermore, the scheme is applied to IEEE-9 bus multifeeder multi-DGs network to show the applicability of the proposed Bosch PIM851F17E 80cm 5 Zone Induction Hob scheme.
The simulation results produced from MATLAB/Simulink are compared with the decentralized power-based droop method and conventional voltage-current droop technique to analyse the performance of the devised scheme.
