Design and Simulation of Adaptive Controller for Single Phase Grid Connected Photovoltaic Inverter under Distorted Grid Conditions

Abstract

This paper presents an adaptive controller for single-phase grid-connected photovoltaic inverter under abnormal grid conditions. The main problem associated with the controllers of the grid-connected inverter is that they are tuned for some assumed values of the electrical grid parameters. However, when the parameters, such as voltage and frequency are changed or the grid is subjected to uncertain distortion, these controllers unable to track those variations of the grid parameters and handle the output power within the allowable limit. To overcome such problem, a suitable control strategy is proposed, which is based on frequency adaptive current control and an accurate grid detection. For validity confirmation, a controlled 3KW system, with specific features was designed and simulated. The simulation results confirmed that the strategy is an effective way of control.
