This paper is presented in an attempt to validate the dynamic response of a microgrid to line-to-line short circuit. The microgrid components include two identical Wind Turbine Generators (WTGs) tied to a 100MVA, 13.8kV utility via a Point of Common Coupling (PCC). The utility-microgrid testbed is modeled in SIMPOWERSystems® using two Doubly-Fed Induction Generators (DFIGs) in the microgrid side. While in islanded operating mode, line-to-line short circuit fault is applied at 6.0s and withdrawn at 8.0s, obtaining a 50.0s dynamic response of the system for different fault locations, under voltage and reactive power control regimes of the wind turbine controller. For measurement purpose, the absolute value of the stator complex voltage is transformed to  reference frame. Bidirectional power flow between the two feeders is established in the study. The study also confirms that the microgrid composed of DFIGs offer reactive power management capability, particularly by presenting superior performance when stressed under Q control regime than under V control regime. Finally, the response of the testbed to line-to-line short circuit has been validated and shown to be consistent with established short circuit theory.

Power Flow Controller

Despite the vast benefits of integrating renewable energy sources (RES) with the utility grid, they pose stability and power quality problems when interconnected with the existing power system. This is due to the production of high voltages and current overshoots/undershoots during their injection or disconnection into/from the power system. In addition, the high harmonic distortion in the output voltage and current waveforms may also be observed due to the excessive inverter switching frequencies used for controlling distributed generator’s (DG) power output. Hence, the development of a robust and intelligent controller for the grid-connected microgrid (MG) is the need of the hour. As such, this paper aims to develop a robust and intelligent optimal power flow controller using a grasshopper optimization algorithm (GOA) to optimize the dynamic response and power quality of the grid-connected MG while sharing the desired amount of power with the grid. To validate the effectiveness of proposed GOA-based controller, its performance in achieving the desired power sharing ratio with optimal dynamic response and power quality is compared with that of its precedent particle swarm optimization (PSO)-based controller under MG injection and abrupt load change conditions. The proposed controller provides tremendous system’s dynamic response with minimum current harmonic distortion even at higher DG penetration levels.

Roll Speed

In this article, a mathematical model is presented for simulation of the coupled roll and heave motions of the asymmetric impact of a two-dimensional wedge body. This model is developed based on the added mass theory and momentum variation. To this end, new formulations are introduced which are related to the added mass caused by heave and roll motions of the wedge. These relations are developed by including the asymmetrical effects and roll speed. In addition, by considering the roll speed, a particular method is presented for the time derivative of half-wetted beam of an asymmetric wedge. Furthermore, two equations are derived for the roll and heave motions in which damping terms appear. Validity of the proposed method is verified by comparing the predicted results against available experimental data in two conditions of roll motion and no roll motion. Favorable agreement is observed between the predicted results and experimental data. The pressure and hydrodynamic load are computed, and the differences between the results associated with the considered conditions are explored. Subsequently, the effects of different physical parameters including deadrise angle, initial roll angle, and initial velocity on the dynamic response of a two-dimensional wedge section are investigated. Ultimately, time histories of hydrodynamic coefficients are determined in order to provide a better understanding of the derived equations.
