Popis: | This paper describes a hybrid real-time simulation method for power system studies and an example application of the proposed technique for distribution grid reactive power controller. The platform consists of a Real-Time Digital Simulator (RTDS), Matlab application and a communication protocol. The RTDS machine is responsible for fast and accurate power system modeling while the Matlab software is used for fast prototyping of a controller. The method was applied to a model that is based on a real distribution grid equipped with a 3.3MWp of photovoltaic generation. A new reactive power control algorithm was designed and tested in a case of a rapid drop of solar insolation. Results prove that the proposed hybrid platform is suitable for power grid control investigations. The real-time tests indicated that the new algorithm can support grid voltage with no negative impact on other grid controllers. The new hybrid method can be applied to other algorithms studies in real-time scenarios. |
