| Popis: | Power grids are currently undergoing a significant transition to enhance operational resilience and elevate power quality issues, aiming to achieve universal access to electricity. In the last few decades, the energy sector has witnessed substantial shifts toward modernizing distribution systems by integrating innovative technologies. Among the innovations, the solid-state transformer (SST) is referred to as a promising technology due to its flexible power control (better reliability) and high efficacy (by decreasing losses) compared with traditional transformers. The design of SST has combined three-stage converters, i.e., the input, isolation, and output stages. The key objective of this design is to implement a modern power distribution system to make it a more intelligent and reliable device in practice. As the power converters are used in SST, they exhibit non-linear behavior and can introduce high-frequency components, making stability more challenging for the system. Besides, the stability issue can be even more complicated by integrating the distributed energy resources into the distribution system. Thus, the stability of SST must be measured prior to /during the design. To determine stability, state-space modeling, and its controller design are important, which this paper explains in detail. Indeed, the system’s stability is measured through the controllability and observability test. Further, the stability analysis is performed using frequency and time-domain diagrams: the Bode plot, Nyquist plot, Nichols chart, Root locus, pole-zero plot, and Eigen plot. Finally, the SST Simulink model is tested and validated through real-time digital simulation using the OPALRT simulator to show its effectiveness and applicability. The stability performance of the proposed SST is evaluated and shows the effectiveness of the controller design of each converter circuit. |
