New Transient Stability and LVRT Improvement of Multi-VSG Grids Using the Frequency of the Center of Inertia

This paper examines a completely novel method for improving the transient stability of multi virtual synchronous generator (VSG) grids. In this method, it has been tried to control the oscillation of VSGs with respect to the center of inertia frequency (COI-frequency) of the grid, during short-circuit. It is also well demonstrated here that the proposed method is able to prevent the increase in irreversible distance angle of VSGs relative to each other, which is the main factor in preventing VSGs reaching to instability point. The method can enhance both the synchronizing and damping terms efficiently. Detailed analyzing of the direct Lyapunov method illustrates the non-linear proof of the method. Also, non-linear algebraic equations for a two-VSG system have been derived to prove the possibility of corroborating simulation results. Equal area criterion is also used to clarify this method further. One interesting feature of the method is that there is no conflict between the requirements of the low voltage ride-through and transient stability improvement.
