Simulation and Control Strategy of a Micro-Turbine Generation System for Grid Connected and Islanding Operations

The paper adopts the method of modularized modeling, creating an electro-mechanic simulation model for a Microturbine Generation System (MTGS), including the micro-turbine engine, permanent magnetic synchronous generator, rectifier and inverter. In this paper, control strategy for grid-connected and islanding operations of a micro-turbine generation system is researched, the former adopts output voltage control strategy to maintain the output voltage of the load, and the latter adopts a dual closed-loop control algorithm based on PQ decoupling. A new control strategy to regulate the output power of MTGS based on the combination of decoupled control of output voltage and hysteresis current control is also introduced. Simulations have been done, and result proves the feasibility of the strategy.
