Power Flow Control of Hybrid Micro-Grids Using Modified UIPC

ABSTRACT:

This work introduces a replacement advent for power flow control of interconnected AC-DC micro-grids in hybrid micro-grids connected to grids. It also supports implementing an Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) controlled modified Unified Inter-Phase Power Controller (UIPC). For study, a classic hybrid micro-grid connected to grid comprising of a AC micro-grid and a DC micro-grid is taken into account. These micro-grids are interconnected employing a modified UIPC, rather than using the power converters connected in parallel. As the first input of this paper is the standard structure of UIPC, which used three power converters in every phase. It was then modified such as number of power converters is used less and implemented for the control of the exchange of power between AC-DC microgrids. In every phase there is one power electronic converter in the improved structure. It is called as Line Power Converter (LPC). Also there is Bus Power Converter (BPC) to regulate the voltage of the DC bus. The Line Power Converters links the AC micro-grid to the main grid. The DC buses are also linked with them. It can be operated in Inductance Mode (IM) as well as Capacitance Mode (CM). The control structure of LPCs has an Adaptive Fuzzy Logic Controller in it. For hybrid micro-grids, the capability of the suggested power flow control strategy is confirmed by the MATLAB simulation results.

CONCLUSION:

The hybrid micro-grid structure is the favorable option in the future smart grids to gather together the renewable resources for AC/DC loads. This is because of the fact that this structure holds the merits of AC as well as DC micro-grids simultaneously. There is one conventional problem with this structure. That is to efficiently control the exchange of power within interconnected micro-grids comprising of AC and DC system. In this particular work, an ANFIS controlled UIPC solution is suggested as a superior alternative to the power electronic converters connected in parallel which have brought many problems. An improved design of the UIPC was initially suggested and then effective strategies for control are presented for the modified UIPC. The results of simulation are used to validate the modified model along with performance of the control of power exchange between micro-grids having AC and DC system.
