PLL-Synchronized Voltage-Supporting Control Under Near-Zero Line Impedance
摘要
Synchronization and power-sharing control are essential for islanded parallel inverters. Traditionally, droop control and other grid-forming control are the typical methods with voltage-supporting abilities. However, those methods only apply to systems with a certain line impedance. For the application of uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems with near-zero line impedance, droop-controlled inverters are prone to loss of stability. To address this issue, this chapter introduces a new first-order phase lock-loop (PLL) synchronized voltage-supporting control method for the islanded operation of parallel inverters in UPS systems. It is found that the first-order PLL is employed for frequency synchronization in islanded operation. Meanwhile, voltage support and power sharing can be guaranteed with modified current control. The experimental results validate the feasibility of the proposed method.
