Invertor as a virtual synchronous generator (VSG) to provide virtual inertia and damping can improve the stability of a microgrid, in which the damping is one of the fundamental problems in dynamics. From the view of the Hamiltonian dynamics, this paper researches the damping formation mechanism and damping injection control of VSG. First, based on the energy composition and dynamic characteristics of VSG, the differential equations system of VSG is established and is transformed into the generalized Hamiltonian system. Second, the effects of the three parameters of VSG, the damping coefficient D, active power droop coefficient, and time constant of excitation TE on damping characteristics are researched from a dynamic perspective, and simulation research is carried out with an isolated microgrid. Lastly, the control design method of Hamiltonian structure corrections used to add the damping factor and design the equivalent control inject damping to improve the stability of the isolated microgrid. Research shows that the voltage and frequency stability of the isolated microgrid can be effectively improved by selecting three key parameters of VSG and damping injection control. The innovations of this paper are 1. The Hamiltonian model of the inverter is deduced and established by taking the inverter as a virtual generator. 2. Based on the Hamiltonian model, damping characteristics of inverter in the microgrid are studied. 3. Hamiltonian structure correction method is applied to the inverter, and equivalent damping injection is designed to improve the stability of the microgrid.

In the field of microgrids (MGs), steady-state power imbalances and frequency/voltage fluctuations in the transient state have been gaining prominence owing to the advancing distributed energy resources (DERs) connected to MGs via grid-connected inverters. Because a stable, safe power supply and demand must be maintained, accurate analyses of power system dynamics are crucial. However, the natural frequency components present in the dynamics make analyses complex. The nonlinearity and confidentiality of grid-connected inverters also hinder controllability. The MG considered in this study consisted of a synchronous generator (the main power source) and multiple grid-connected inverters with storage batteries and virtual synchronous generator (VSG) control. Although smart inverter controls such as VSG contribute to system stabilization, they induce system nonlinearity. Therefore, Koopman mode decomposition (KMD) was utilized in this study for consideration as a future method of data-driven analysis of the measured frequencies and voltages, and a frequency response analysis of the power system dynamics was performed. The Koopman operator is a linear operator on an infinite dimensional space, whereas the original dynamics is a nonlinear map on a finite state space. In other words, the proposed method can precisely analyze all the dynamics of the power system, which involve the complex nonlinearities caused by VSGs.

In this article, a hybrid technique is proposed for improving the transient and small signal response in micro grid using virtual inertia. The proposed hybrid technique is the combined execution of both the emperor penguin optimizer (EPO) and butterfly optimization algorithm (BOA), and hence it is called EPOBOA technique. The major objective of the EPOBOA technique is to “optimize the control parameters to regulate the changes occurred in the grid parameter such as voltage and frequency based on the variations of inertia”. Here, the EPO is executed to modify the parameters of virtual synchronous generator units to achieve the objective function. The searching behaviour of the EPO is adapted by using the hunting behaviour of BOA. The proposed technique is executed in MATLAB/Simulink work site, and the experimental results are analyzed under three test cases: normal condition, irradiation change condition, and load change condition. The performance of the proposed technique is compared with different existing techniques and the calculated frequency deviation index of the proposed technique in all the cases is 0.0051, 0.0045, and 0.0047 and found to be very optimal compared with existing methods. Overall, the experimental outcomes show that the proposed EPOBOA method is more efficient and confirm its ability to solve the issues.
