Abstract:   (2446 Views)
Considering the presence of different model parameters and controlling variables, as well as the nonlinear nature of DC to AC inverters; stabilizing the closed-loop system for grid current balancing is a challenging task. To cope with these issues, a novel sliding mode controller is proposed for the current balancing of local loads using grid-connected inverters in this paper. The closed-loop system includes two different controlling loops: a current controller which regulates the output current of grid-connected inverter and a voltage controller which is responsible for DC link voltage regulation. The main features of the proposed nonlinear controller are reactive power compensation, harmonic filtering and three-phase balancing of local nonlinear loads.  The developed controller is designed based on the state-space averaged modelling its stability and robustness are proved analytically using the Lyapunov stability theorem. The accuracy and effectiveness of proposed controlled approach are investigated through the PC-based simulations in MATLAB/Simulink.

  • A novel sliding mode controller is designed for mitigation of the unbalanced grid currents using the active power filters.
  • Considering existence of different controlling inputs/output in the averaged steady-state model of the system, a unique controller is proposed to improve the response of closed-loop system in a wide operational range.
  • The proposed current controller has zero steady-state error with a fast dynamic response.
