Abstract

For the pre-synchronization method of the virtual synchronous generator (VSG), only the case of a single VSG pre-synchronization and grid connection has been studied and analyzed. If the phase synchronization of multiparallel VSGs in a decentralized microgrid is realized by controlling a VSG, power circulation exists in the pre-synchronization process. Firstly, the structure and control mode of the microgrid are introduced. For the decentralized structure, a control mode switching mechanism under distributed communication is designed, and a pre-synchronization method of parallel VSGs based on control mode switching is proposed. Secondly, a theoretical analysis of the active power circulation problem is performed by an equivalent frequency model for parallel VSGs in the pre-synchronization process. Finally, the simulation results show that the proposed pre-synchronization method can reduce the dynamic power circulation of parallel VSGs by 83%, and improve the pre-synchronization speed by 75%.
