Entire Period Transient Stability of Synchronous Generators Considering LVRT Switching of Nearby Renewable Energy Sources

摘要

In scenarios where synchronous generators (SGs) and grid-following renewable energy sources (GFLR) are co-located, existing research, which mainly focuses on the first-swing stability of SGs, often overlooks ongoing dynamic interactions between GFLRs and SGs throughout the entire rotor swing period. To address this gap, this study first reveals that the angle oscillations of SG can cause periodic grid voltage fluctuations, potentially triggering low-voltage ride-through (LVRT) control switching of GFLR repeatedly. Then, the periodic energy changes of SGs under "circular" and "rectangular" LVRT limits are analyzed. The results indicate that circular limits are detrimental to SG's first-swing stability, while rectangular limits and their slow recovery strategies can lead to SG's multi-swing instability. Conservative stability criteria are also proposed for these phenomena. Furthermore, an additional controller based on feedback linearization is introduced to enhance the entire period transient stability of SG by adjusting the post-fault GFLR output current. Finally, the efficacy of the analysis is validated through electromagnetic transient simulations and controller hardware-in-the-loop (CHIL) tests.
