Control Strategy of Torsional Torque Suppression of Decentralized Generators with Parameter Identification System

Abstract

The output power fluctuation of such renewable energy power plants as a wind-turbine generator and a photovoltaic system results in frequency deviation and terminal voltage fluctuation. Furthermore, these power fluctuations also affect the turbine shafting of diesel generator and gas-turbine generators, which are the main power generation systems in isolated islands. This article presents a control strategy that achieves torsional torque suppression and power system stabilization. Since the measurement of torsional torque is difficult technically, and there is uncertainty in mechanical constants of the shaft torsional system, the torsional torque is estimated by using a linear quadratic regulator observer with a parameter identification system. The simulation results validate the effectiveness of the proposed control system.
