MICROTURBINE GENERATION SYSTEM FOR GRID CONNECTION/ISLANDING OPERATION

ABSTRACT

Distributed Generation (DG) is predicted to play an important role in electrical power system in the near future. The insertion of DG system into existing distribution network has great impact on real-time system operation and planning. It is widely accepted that micro turbine generation (MTG) systems are currently attracting lot of attention to meet customers need in the distribution power generation market. In order to investigate the performance of micro turbine generation systems their efficient modelling is required.

The project ‘DYMANIC MODEL OF MICROTURBINE GENRATION SYSTEM FOR GRID CONNECTION/ISLANDING CONNECTION proposes a dynamic model of a MTG system, suitable for grid connection/islanding operation The presented model allows the bidirectional power flow between grid and MTG system. The components of the system are built from the dynamics of each part with their interconnections. The control strategies for both grid connected and intentional islanding operation mode of a DG system are also proposed.

For the purpose of modelling initially a dynamic model for each component in the system, including micro turbine, permanent magnet synchronous generator, 3 phase AC-DC rectifier and DC-AC inverter is developed and after this stage the model is implemented in simulation software. In this project the simulation tool is Matlab/Simulink. Simulations are carried out in islanded and grid-connected mode of the system to observe the system’s behaviour when supplying customer’s variable loads. It also incorporates modelling and simulation of microturbine with a speed control system of the micro turbine-synchronous generator to keep the speed constant with load variation.
