Abstract:

Aimed at the small-signal synchronization instability of grid-following (GFL) and grid-forming (GFM) converter system, a synchronization perspective frequency-domain modeling and analysis method is proposed, which can intuitively reveal mechanism and accurately judge multi-machine stability. Specifically, a node admittance matrix considering GFL, GFM converters, and the transmission network is established. Then, the frequency domain modal analysis (FMA) method is adopted to evaluate system instability characteristics. Afterwards, synchronization forward and feedback paths are partitioned at the oscillation source to formulate a synchronization perspective stability model incorporating dynamics of each converter and transmission network. Finally, the proposed method is validated by using a typical two-machine GFL-GFM system. With such method, the stability judgment failure caused by the feedback path aggregation is addressed, and the interaction mechanism between GFL and GFM synchronization dynamics as well as their parameter influences are revealed.

Key words: synchronization stability, grid-connected converter, grid-following (GFL) control, grid-forming (GFM) control, frequency domain modal analysis (FMA) method
