For the single-phase high-power railway traction system, the inevitable second-order resonating power has become a critical issue to the traction system. In this paper, a power decoupling solution is proposed to replace the conventional passive LC resonance filter by utilizing the buck-type bi-directional DC/DC converter (BBDC) of Hybrid Electric Multiple Units (HEMU), which is designed to power the train in non-electrified routes using the on-board battery. By considering both the current ripples in the battery mode and the power decoupling in the catenary mode, the corresponding parameter design process of the BBDC is presented. Based on the power coupling phenomenon and the spectrum characteristic of the BBDC, a direct resonance control method is proposed to decouple the low-order resonating power. Simulations and experiments are carried out to validate the effectiveness of the new proposal. The results demonstrate that the proposal is almost the same as using the conventional passive LC resonance filter for power decoupling in both steady and dynamic operation scenarios.

Since a dc Micro-Grid consists of power converters connected through different line impedances, tuning of the voltage controller provides a simple and intuitive tradeoff between the conflicting goals of voltage regulation and current power sharing. A highly flexible distributed control strategy is proposed to achieve balanced control between the two control objectives, which includes the containment-based voltage controller and consensus-based current controller. The terminal voltage can be bounded within a prescriptive range which means each terminal voltage is controllable instead of only controlling average voltages, meanwhile the current sharing performance can be regulated among converters. The two objectives, including either bounding voltages tightly or decreasing current sharing errors, can be compromised between each other by tuning controller weights. The large signal model is developed to analyze the tuning principle about different control parameters. The proposed strategy can provide flexible control performance according to various control requirements. Experimental results and comparisons are illustrated to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method and compromised tuning under resistive load and constant power load (CPL), dynamic voltage boundary conditions.

In this paper, an alternative realization method of droop control and virtual impedance for paralleled converters in DC microgrids is proposed as complement to the existing method. The major feature of the proposed realization is that the virtual impedance behavior is realized by using current reference together with a properly designed low-pass filter. Therefore, it will inherently get rid of the noise problem in real-world measurement, which is critical when realizing inductive virtual components. In addition to that, the impact of low-pass filter used in the proposed method on the dynamic performance is also comparatively studied. To validate the proposed method, simulations and experiments are carried out. The results show that the proposed method can be fully compatible with existing methods. Moreover, the low-pass filter is proven to be optional, however, with a specially designed low-pass filter, the transient response of the system can be modified significantly.

At sea, the electrical power system of a ship can be considered as an islanded microgrid. When connected to shore power at berth, the same power system acts as a grid connected microgrid or an extension of the grid. Therefore, ship microgrids show some resemblance to terrestrial microgrids. Nevertheless, due to the presence of large dynamic loads, such as electric propulsion loads, keeping the voltage and frequency within a permissible range and ensuring the continuity of supply are more challenging in ship microgrids. Moreover, with the growing demand for emission reductions and fuel efficiency improvements, alternative energy sources and energy storage technologies are becoming popular in ship microgrids. In this context, the integration of multiple energy sources and storage systems in ship microgrids requires an efficient power management system (PMS). These challenging environments and trends demand advanced control and power management solutions that are customized for ship microgrids. This paper presents a review on recent developments of control technologies and power management strategies proposed for AC ship microgrids.

DC microgrids built through bottom-up approach are becoming very popular for swarm electrification due to their scalability and resource sharing capabilities. However, they typically require sophisticated control techniques involving communication among the distributed resources for stable and coordinated operation. In this work, we present a communication-less strategy for the decentralized control of a PV/battery-based highly distributed DC microgrid. The architecture consists of clusters of nanogrids (households), where each nanogrid can work independently along with provisions of sharing resources with the community. An adaptive I-V droop method is used which relies on local measurements of SOC and DC bus voltage for the coordinated power sharing among the contributing nanogrids. PV generation capability of individual nanogrids is synchronized with the grid stability conditions through a local controller which may shift its modes of operation between maximum power point tracking mode and current control mode. The distributed architecture with the proposed decentralized control scheme enables a) scalability and modularity in the structure, b) higher distribution efficiency, and c) communication-less, yet coordinated resource sharing. The efficacy of the proposed control scheme is validated for various possible power sharing scenarios using simulations on MATLAB/Simulink and hardware in loop facilities at microgrid laboratory in Aalborg University.

For DC microgrids, the “plug and play” capability is one of the most desired functionalities to formulate a fully flexible and scalable system. The “plug and play” operation will put twofold requirements on the control of power sources: on the one hand, they shall share the load properly; on the other hand, the system stability shall be ensured. In this paper, a two degree-of-freedom admittance-type droop control method is proposed to fulfill the requirements of the “plug and play” operation. In the proposed method, both conventional proportional power sharing function and virtual inertia injection capability are included to provide an integrated decentralized solution to ensure proper power sharing and system stability, and therefore being helpful to achieve “plug and play” DC microgrid.

DC distribution is now becoming the major trend of future mobile power systems, such as more-electric aircrafts and ships. As dc distribution has different nature to the conventional ac system, a new design of well-structured control and management methods will be mandatory. In this paper, a shipboard power system with dc distribution and energy storage system (ESS) is picked as the study case. To meet the requirement of control and management of such a large-scale mobile power system, a hierarchical control design is proposed in this paper. In order to fully exploit the benefit of the ESS, as well as to overcome the limitation in controllability, a novel inverse-droop control method is proposed, in which the power sharing is according to the source characteristic, instead of their power rating. A frequency-division method is also proposed as an extension to the inverse-droop method for enabling a hybrid ESS and its autonomous operation. On the basis of the proposed methods, the control methods for management and voltage restoration levels are also proposed to establish a comprehensive control solution. Real-time simulations are carried out to validate the performance of the proposed control design under different operating conditions. When compared to more conventional droop-based approaches, the new proposal shows enhancement in efficiency.

One of the major feature of DC microgrids is its high penetration of power electronic converters, as a result, the system inertia becomes a problem. In this paper, an admittance-type droop control with additional capability of introducing virtual inertia to the system. With the proposed method, each energy source will also contribute virtual inertia to the system, thus improving transient response and stability of the entire DC microgrid. The inertia issue of droop control is firstly analyzed. A comparative study is carried out between conventional method (i.e. impedance-type droop control method) and the new proposal in terms of their different control principles, characteristics of equivalent output admittance/impedance, and effectiveness in achieving desired virtual inertia introduction. Ultimately, simulations and experiments are carried out to verify proposed control methods. The results show improved system inertia and enhanced performance.

Recently, DC distribution has been more and more considered in shipbuilding industry as an emerging solution due to its potential to enhance the system performance in terms of fuel economy, reliability, volume and weight. Moreover, there is a growing trend to integrate alternative power sources (APSs) and energy storage systems (ESSs) into next-generation ships, and thus reducing cost and emission. In this context, the future shipboard power systems (SPSs) are expected to be compatible with various generation methods and complex onboard power consumers, which can be naturally identified as islanding microgrids (MGs). In this paper, specialized hierarchical control strategy is proposed to coordinate the system operation and meet the requirement of shipboard applications. Several advantageous functions are achieved by proposed control strategy. A study case of DC SPS is modeled and simulations are carried out to verify the proposed control strategy.

A highly flexible and reliable control strategy is proposed to achieve bounded voltage and precise current sharing, which is implemented in a reverse-droop-based dc Micro-Grid. To acquire the fast-dynamic response, the reverse droop control is used to replace the V-I droop control in the primary level. In the secondary level, the containment-based controller is proposed to bound the bus voltages within a reasonable range and keep the necessary voltage deviations for power flow regulation; the consensus-based controller is simultaneous involved to regulate power flow achieving accurate current sharing among converters. Combined the proposed controllers with the electrical part of the dc Micro-Grid, a model is fully developed to analyze the sensitivity of different control coefficients. Experimental results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In DC microgrids, virtual resistance based droop control is broadly used as the fundamental coordination method. As the virtual resistance guarantees load sharing effect in steady states, the output admittance determines the dynamic response of converters in transient states, which is critical in stability analysis and system design. So far, two different approaches of droop control (i.e. V-I droop and I-V droop) are proposed. Although they can achieve the same steady-state power sharing effect and fully compliable with each other, the output characteristics are not the same due to significant difference in control architecture. In this paper, a comparative admittance-based analysis is carried out between these two approaches. State-space models and more general analytical models are established to derive the output admittance of droop-controlled converter in DC microgrids. Simulations and impedance measurement is carried out using PLECS to validate the analytical results.

Railway vehicles have been based on a wheel-rail system since the system's origination. Therefore, the adhesion-coupling behavior between wheel and rail is the fundamental element of railway traction [1]. However, low vehicle wheel-rail adhesion caused by high humidity, rain, snow, oil, or decomposing leaves is a common problem that can cause damage to some elements of the traction system and decrease traction performance [2]. It may even give rise to safety problems and reduce comfort, not to mention delays and their corresponding economic impact. Good traction control to ensure the system is working at high adhesion point is therefore critical and mandatory for the traction control units (TCUs) [2]-[6].

Due to the increasing need to reduce the cost and emission of ships, shipboard applications are calling advanced technologies to go onboard. Recently, cleaner power sources (i.e. gas turbines, fuel cell, solar and wind power), energy storage, advanced control and power/energy management are introduced to meet the new requirement, and therefore, making shipboard power system more like a microgrid. In this paper, a frequency-division based power sharing method is proposed to solve the contradiction between fuel efficiency and dynamic load conditions of marine vessels. With effective design, the operation point of prime movers can be maintained at their optimal area, meanwhile, different energy storages will provide characteristic based response. On the basis of the proposed power sharing method, voltage restoration and power management-level control methods are also introduced to form hierarchical control design. A study case is modeled and HIL simulations are carried out to verify the proposed control strategies.

Ship microgrids have recently received increased attention, mainly due to the extensive use of power electronically interfaced loads and sources. Characteristics of these microgrids are similar to islanded terrestrial microgrids, except the presence of highly dynamic large loads, such as propulsion loads. The presence of such loads and sources with power-electronic converter interfaces lead to severe power quality issues in ship microgrids. Generally, these issues can be classified as voltage variations, frequency variations and waveform distortions which are commonly referred to as harmonic distortions. Amongst the solutions identified, energy storage is considered to be the most promising technology for mitigating voltage and/or frequency deviations. Passive filtering is the commonly used technology for reducing harmonic distortions, which requires bulky capacitors and inductors. Active filtering is emerging as an alternative, which could be realised even within the same interfacing converter of the energy storage system. The aim of this paper is to investigate recent developments in these areas and provide readers with a critical review on power quality issues, energy storage technologies and strategies that could be used to improve the power quality in ship microgrids. Moreover, a brief introduction to ship power system architectures is also presented in the paper.

In this article, we examined dc microgrid-based maritime onboard power systems and outlined the need for and potential benefit of employing both smart grid technologies and the MVdc IPS for the future AES to enhance the controllability and efficiency of shipboard power systems. We introduced a series of technical outcomes from research on terrestrial dc microgrids, such as dc power architecture, the application of ESSs, hierarchical control, and different coordination methods. We also presented objective-oriented coordinated management methods and protective functions for future MVdc IPSs, which are to meet the specific need of maritime applications using methodologies from dc microgrids. In the last decade, there were several prototypes of ships on the low-voltage dc level, while, for the MVdc IPS, there are still technological challenges and de-risking studies to be performed. However, it is foreseeable that the advanced technologies from terrestrial dc microgrids are potentially applicable in the MVdc IPS of the future AES. Thus, such a combination will contribute to the implementation of high-performance MVdc IPSs for both commercial and mission-oriented vessels in the near future.

DC power distribution system is being considered as an attractive alternative to its traditional AC counterpart in many fields of applications and, in particular, for maritime onboard power systems. The adoption of DC power architecture would bring a broad range of benefits to the onboard power system. Not only frequency-related constraints are eliminated, which allows high-speed smaller generators to be used, but also new fault-tolerant configurations involving power electronics, generation control, as well as smart systemic management. For these reasons, DC power systems become natural alternative to the conventional AC power systems in the field of future maritime applications. Moreover, the inevitable cabin structure of maritime applications naturally separate the large-scale power system into several zonal parts. Furthermore, it is expected that the zonal parts can maintain autonomous power supply for a short time, which make the system highly consist with DC microgrids. In this content, it is foreseeable that the advanced research outcomes in the field of DC microgrid are also compatible with maritime onboard power systems. In this paper, DC power architectures, control and coordination methods, and specific issues of maritime onboard power system, fuel efficiency optimization and systemic reconfiguration are outlined, referring to state-of-the-art realizations as well as to novel concept designs presently under development and investigation.

Along with the rapid development of Chinese railway, EMU has already become a widely accepted travel tool. But conventional EMU has a high dependency on the overhead contact line (OCL) network as well as a potential risk of injecting harmonics into the OCL network, which may lead to an oscillation in the OCL network. This paper majorly studies the control strategies of hybrid power supply system for the first diesel electric multiple units in China. Due to the natural restriction of permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG), the output voltage of the alternator cannot be controlled directly. To solve this problem and achieve a good power allocation, the droop control is applied to build the control system of hybrid power supply system. The result of experimental prototype test shows that the control strategies work well and achieved a good power allocation in its operation.

From the perspective of the current relationship, the reason of midpoint potential fluctuations for three-level inverter was analyzed. And based on redundant small vectors compensation, the action time correction methods for the basic voltage vectors and the original fundamental voltage vector have been proposed. Finally a simulation model was built in MATLAB for analysis, which showed that the three-level neutral point potential fluctuations can be suppressed effectively by the midpoint potential compensation algorithm.

Light rail is developing very fast in China. With the help of battery-based energy storage system, the light rail vehicle will perform much better than before. Light rail vehicle energy storage system links lithium battery and DC-link together, and energy flow two-way through it. The topology of the energy storage system is studied and its working principle is analyzed. The lithium battery is a very suitable energy storage device for the energy storage system for its good charging and discharging characteristics. A double closed-loop including a voltage loop and a current loop is developed to control the energy storage system. The simulation in the MATLAB shows that the energy storage system coordinates very well with the other subsystems in the light rail vehicle in all working conditions.
