Universidade Federal do Pampa

Conrado Fleck received the Bacharel degree in Renewable Energy Engineering from Universidade Federal do Pampa-UNIPAMPA at Bagé, RS in 2013. He is currently with the Graduate Program on Electrical Engineering of UNIPAMPA at Alegrete, RS as a Master degree candidate. His main research focus is on the control of grid connected converters for application in Microgrids.

Abstract

In this paper, a combined control strategy for grid connected converters is proposed. A synchronous machine is emulated for synchronization and power sharing of the converter with the grid. In order to compensate the influence... [ view full abstract ]
