Abstract

Typical DGs and corresponding control strategies are selected for validating the correctness and effectiveness of transient simulation algorithm for DG system. Different DG systems are modeled and simulated, including PV, SOFC, microturbine and battery. The transients from grid-connected mode to islanded mode are investigated for typical European low-voltage microgrid and the simulative results are compared in detail between TSDG and MATLAB/SimPowerSystems, which shows the maximum relative error is less than 0.1%, proving the high numerical accuracy and numerical stability of TSDG. The application of pseudo Newton method enhances the calculation speed. The concepts of parallel processing and multi-rate algorithm to improve the calculation performance in future work are discussed.
