The objective of this research is to analyze and evaluate the performance of the proposed shunt-series switched multi-functional grid-connected inverter (SSS-MFGCI) for mitigating unbalanced voltage sag and swell problem in distributed generation system or microgrid. Three quantitative performance evaluation factors, namely fault level factor, rating factor, and grid stiffness factor, are proposed...
In this paper, a new configuration of a multi-functional grid-connected inverter is proposed to improve both voltage-based and current-based power quality issue. By implementing bidirectional switches using semiconductor devices, a multi-functional grid-connected inverter can be connected in series or parallel to the grid and provides three modes of operation. This paper presents the control scheme...
Modernized grid needs ancillary service as a variety of distributed energy resources are connected. Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) application is one of promising distributed energy resources, which enables to transfer bidirectional power between batteries of plug-in electric vehicle and the grid as well as offer ancillary service to the grid. Benefits of V2G application are voltage and frequency regulation,...
Grid-connected inverters (GCIs) are power electronics interfaces to connect distributed energy resources into the grid. In order to improve the performance of distributed energy resources as well as maintain the high power quality of the grid, it is important to understand the characteristic of GCIs with appropriate controllers depending on its applications. This paper presents a study on the effect...
This paper presents a mathematical modeling of three-phase grid-connected inverter system including output LCL filter and closed loop control using complex vector notation. The control scheme used is synchronous frame PI control on complex space vector of grid current in synchronous dq reference frame. Effect of controller's tuning parameters is investigated using complex vector root locus and complex...
Silicon (Si) carbide (SiC)-based power switching devices provide significant performance improvements compared to conventional Si devices. The superior characteristics enable considerable loss, size, and weight reduction of power converters in the powertrain of hybrid/electric vehicles. However, the fast switching capability of SiC devices renders them more vulnerable to parasitic inductances in the...
The number of distributed energy resources are increasing in modern power systems. Vehicle-to-grid power transfer is envisioned to become another type of distributed energy resource and support energy needs of the grid under various circumstances. This paper investigates the stability and power quality of a parallel grid-connected inverter system for vehicle-to-grid application using modeling and...
The purpose of this paper is to analyze the impact of interconnection inductances to overvoltage during turn-off transient of silicon carbide (SiC) devices. To understand the switching behavior of the SiC devices, the ringing and overshoots of the voltage caused by the device capacitance and interconnection inductances are considered. Parametric studies are conducted to compare the influences of printed...
