Hardware Description

This article presents the development of a low-cost control hardware in the loop platform for the validation and analysis of controllers used for the management of power sharing between the main grid and a DC microgrid. The platform is made up of two parts: a main grid interconnection system emulator (MGISE) and a controller under test (CUT). The MGISE operates on a 260 V DC bus and includes a 1000 W photovoltaic array, a DC variable load and a single H full bridge converter (HFBC). The CUT includes a phase locked loop and a main cascade control structure composed of two PI controllers. Both the MGISE and the CUT were embedded on an NI myRIO-1900 development board and programmed using LabVIEW virtual instrumentation software. These devices communicate with each other using analog signals representing the AC side current, the DC side voltage, and the HFBC control signal. The MGISE operates with an integration time of 6 µs and its performance is validated by comparing it with a simulation in PSIM. The integration time of the MGISE, the development boards used, as well as its programming environment, and the results obtained from the comparison with PSIM simulation, show that the proposed platform is useful for the validation of controllers for power sharing, with a simple implementation process compared to other hardware description methods and with a low-cost platform.
