It is difficult to achieve accurate distribution of reactive power based on conventional droop control due to the line impedance mismatch in an islanded microgrid. An adaptive virtual impendence method based on consensus control of reactive current is proposed in this paper. A distributed control structure without the central controller has been established. In this structure, each distributed generation unit (DG) is an independent agent, one-way communication is used between the adjacent DGs, and the reactive power sharing is equivalent to a problem of reactive power current consensus. It has been proven that the system is asymptotically stable under the proposed control strategy. When the adjacent DG's reactive power is not proportionally distributed, the current weight error term will generate a virtual impedance correction term through the proportional-integral controller based on the reactive current consensus control strategy, thus introducing adaptive virtual impedance to eliminate mismatches in output impedance between DGs. Reactive power auto-proportional distribution can be achieved without knowing the line impedance. At the same time, the power control loop is simplified and the virtual impedance compensation angle is employed to compensate the decreased reference voltage magnitude and varied phase angle due to the introduction of the virtual impedance, so the stability of the system can be improved. Finally, the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed strategy are verified by modeling analysis and microgrid simulations.
Aiming at problems of power allocation and economic scheduling for independent multi-microgrid systems, a bi-level optimization method based on optimal power flow and consensus algorithm is proposed. The novelty of the method is that an independent multi-microgrid system is divided into two layers: in the upper layer, with the predicted output range of the microgrids as the input data, each microgrid is considered as a virtual power supply or virtual load, and taking the minimum network loss as the goal, the energy mutual aid and power allocation among the microgrids are transformed into solving the optimal power flow; in the lower layer, taking the upper layer power distribution scheme as the constraint condition, considering load fluctuation and wind/solar generation uncertainty, the optimal dispatch model of the controllable distributed generator is established based on the distributed theory and the consensus algorithm of equal cost increment, and the "plug and play" of the distributed generator is also realized. An islanded multi-microgrid cluster is taken as an example to verify the economy, security, and reliability of the proposed scheme. The advantages of the scheme have been shown by the simulation example. Simulation results show that the upper-layer method not only realizes the optimal power allocation of microgrids, but also reduces the power loss of the energy mutual aid among the microgrids; through the optimal scheduling of controllable power supply in the microgrid, the lower-level scheme not only improves the economic benefit of the microgrid, but also well suppresses the negative effects of the uncertainties, prediction errors and power fault removal on the multi-microgrid system, which improves the robustness of the system.
Interconnecting multiple combined heat and power (CHP) microgrids with the distribution network to form a CHP multi-microgrid system can promote the complementarity of various energy forms effectively and improve energy utilization efficiency. Therefore, a dual-layer stochastic optimal scheduling strategy of a multi-microgrid system interconnected with multiple CHP microgrids and multi-node distribution networks is proposed in this paper. In this strategy, the whole system is divided into two layers: (1) The lower layer adopts a stochastic simulation method based on versatile distribution to randomly generate a large number of scenarios and then uses a backward scenario reduction method to reduce the generated scenarios to a target number. Furthermore, with the goal of minimizing the sum of the weighted costs of the microgrid in each scenario, an economically optimal mixed integer programming model for a CHP microgrid with multiple energy storage devices is established. The output power of the electro-thermal units is optimized in each microgrid, and then the power to buy or sell power for each microgrid is determined. (2) The upper layer takes the minimum loss of the distribution system connected to multiple CHP microgrids as the goal and considers the power of each microgrid optimized by the lower layer as constraints. The optimal power flow model of the multi-node power distribution system is formulated based on the second-order cone relaxation technology, and the global optimal solution of the power node is obtained. Finally, the daily dispatch in which the IEEE-30 node power system connected to multiple CHP microgrids is used as an example for analysis. The results show that considering the uncertain factors of wind and solar output can effectively improve the reliability and robustness of the system when multiple CHP microgrids are connected to distribution network. Meanwhile, the coordinated use of multiple flexible coupling devices can reduce economic costs and promote energy consumption.
Aiming at the problems of difficult attitude stabilization, low landing accuracy, large external disturbance and slow dynamic response during the quadrotor dynamic landing on the wave glider, an improved series active disturbance rejection control method for the quadrotor is proposed. The quadrotor controller with inner-loop attitude angular velocity control and outer-loop position control based on the active disturbance rejection controller (ADRC) is designed by analyzing the dynamic model of the quadrotor. A tracking differentiator (TD) is adopted to track the input signal, and an expansive state observer (ESO) is used to estimate the total disturbance. Moreover, a nonlinear law state error feedback (NLSEF) is used to generate the virtual control volume of the system to realize the control of the quadrotor, and the stability of the cascaded self-turbulent controller is verified by Lyapunov’s theory. The simulation verifies that the proposed controller can accurately control the attitude and the position with better anti-interference capability and faster tracking speed. According to the final sea trial, a combination of an active disturbance rejection controller optimized with improved crow search algorithm (ICADRC) and April Tag visual reference system is used to land the quadrotor efficiently and successfully even under the surface float attitude uncertainty.
