4.2. Sensitivity Analysis of the Parameters
- Set up a three-phase symmetrical voltage dip fault at the parallel network point POC so that its duration is 0.5 s and the voltage dip amplitude is 20%, record the active power P0 and reactive power Q0 output from the parallel network point.
- Increase the jth parameter by a factor of 0.1 and change the corresponding parameter in each element in the distribution network, set the same fault conditions as in the previous step, and record the active power Pj and reactive power Qj at the output of the grid point.
- The active and reactive sensitivities are calculated separately through Equation (2). The average trajectory sensitivity is obtained by calculating the average of the two.
4.3. Identification of the Parameters
- On the one hand, the external input parameters of the generalized load model are determined according to the actual situation. On the other hand, determine the values of voltage, active, and reactive power at each node under normal operation and the occurrence of voltage dip faults at fixed locations through the detailed PSCAD model. These values are used as determinants to inform the parameter identification process.
- The parameter identification follows the order of sensitivity from highest to lowest. Set the parameter to be recognized to an initial value and the rest to typical values.
- A nonlinear least squares method based on the trust domain reflection algorithm is used to identify high-sensitivity parameters in a generalized load model. Calculating the sum of squares of the deviations of the operating results of the system containing the generalized load model from the test samples and using it as an objective function for optimization of the parameters to be identified.
- Run the simulation with the identified results and compare the obtained results with the actual results, the identified parameter values can be accepted under the range of error operation, otherwise, re-identification is carried out.
4.4. Simulation Validation of the Generalized Load Model
4.4.1. Detailed Distribution Network Model Calibration Based on Measured Data
- During the fault transient, the detailed electromagnetic transient model of the PV grid-connected inverter is calibrated based on the PV grid-connected inverter low-voltage and high-voltage ride-through test data to verify its accuracy.
- During stable operation, based on the actual grid measurement data at a certain moment, combined with the light and temperature conditions at that moment, the PV grid-connected system detailed electromagnetic transient model of the PV output, and the steady state currents of each grid-connected point are calibrated.
- With small errors, the detailed simulation model can reflect the operational state of the actual power grid. Subsequently, it can provide sufficient current data for the parameter identification of the generalized load model.
4.4.2. Generalized Load Model Calibration
- Time period A starts 2 s before the voltage dip.
- The first 20 ms of the voltage drop to 0.9 p.u. is the end of the A period and the beginning of the B period.
- The first 20 ms of the start time of disturbance removal is the end of the B time period and the start of the C time period.
- After the disturbance is cleared, 2 s after the system’s active power starts to stabilize its output is the end of the C time period.
- The average deviation in the steady state interval (F1) represents the arithmetic mean of the deviations between the detailed electromagnetic transient model and the generalized load model in the steady state interval.
- The average deviation over the transient interval (F2) is the arithmetic mean of the deviations between the detailed electromagnetic transient model and the generalized load model over the transient interval.
- The maximum deviation in the steady state interval (F3) is the maximum value of the deviation between the detailed electromagnetic transient model and the generalized load model in the steady state interval.
5. Conclusions
- A generalized load model that includes a detailed PV system structure and considers PV high and low voltage fault ride-through capability is developed. Compared with other load models, this model takes into account the PV high and low voltage ride-through characteristics, which are more adapted to the load characteristics of the real distribution network at present.
- In the model calibration section, a detailed model calibration of the distribution network based on measured data is proposed. Considering that it is difficult to obtain the parameters of the actual grid fault, the detailed model based on measured data is first established to check its ability to express the stable operation and fault transient characteristics of the actual distribution network. From the simulation results, the error between the actual current and the detailed model is less than 1%, and it can be considered that the model can reflect the actual operation state of the grid. The grid-connected data can be used as the benchmark data for the parameter identification of the generalized load model.
- After the parameter identification is completed, the generalized load model and the detailed model will be simulated. By comparing the simulation results under four groups of different PV penetration rates and different operating conditions, the errors of the corresponding physical quantities of the two models are calculated, and the resulting errors are less than 1%. The model fits well with the distributed PV access to the distribution network.
