Modeling and simulation of microturbine based distributed generation system

Modeling and Simulation of a DG-Integrated Intelligent Microgrid

“…Based on Rowen's model, authors in [23] conducted field tests to derive model parameters and validated the model's behaviors with actual field data using various types of gas. Subsequently, the proposed heavy-duty combustion turbine model by Rowen was widely used as a gas turbine section of the microturbine simulation model proposed by [24,25,26,27]. In these work, the circuit models of the permanent magnet synchronous generator were developed using the rotor reference frame (dq) for predicting the PMSG's transient behavior.…”

Performance Of Microturbine Generation System in Grid Connected and Islanding Modes of Operation

“…At the time of starting, permanent magnet synchronous machine acts as motor and draws power from the grid to bring the turbine to certain speed. During the generating mode PMSM acts as generator and power flows from MTG system to grid (Fethi, 2004 andGaonkar, 2008). …”

“…Some attempts are made to extend this method for unbalanced voltages based on Symmetrical components (Ghartemani, 2004). Figure 11 shows the simulation model implemented in the SimPowerSystems of the MATLAB to study the performance of the MTG system operation in grid connected mode (Gaonkar, 2008). The utility network, to which the MTG system is connected, is represented by a 3 phase sinusoidal source with its impedance.…”

Modeling and simulation of the microturbine generation system for on-grid and off-grid operation modes

“…Microturbine unit (MTU) is well suitable for a different distributed generation applications, because the MTU is flexible in connection method, can be stacked in parallel to serve larger loads, can provide reliable power and has low-emissions profile [1]- [2]. The potential applications of the MTU configuration include peak shaving, premium power, remote power, and grid support [1]- [2].…”

“…The potential applications of the MTU configuration include peak shaving, premium power, remote power, and grid support [1]- [2]. In locations where power from the local grid is unavailable or extremely expensive to install, or the customer is far from the distribution system the MTU can be a competitive option.…”
