Abstract

The AC/DC converter, which connects the AC grid to the DC grid in the microgrid, is a critical component in power sharing and stable operation. Sometimes the AC/DC converters are connected in parallel to increase the transmission and reception capacity. When connected in parallel, circulating current is generated due to line impedance difference or sensor error. As a result of circulating current, there is deterioration and loss in particular PCS(Power Conversion System). In this paper, we propose droop control with novel adaptive virtual impedance for reducing circulating current. Feasibility of proposed algorithm is verified by PowerSIM simulation.
