Analysis of Control System to Prevent Collapse of Mixed-Source DC Microgrid for Industry

Abstract

This paper presents the control of power sources by lookup table controller to maintain the voltage of critical load and to prevent the collapse of a mixed-source DC microgrid which consists of grid, diesel generators, batteries and solar cells that connect to DC bus. MATLAB is used to a simulation of the microgrid system. The experiment presents the time comparison of four types of switches including magnetic contactor, relay, solid-state relay and power MOSFET which can maintain DC bus voltage in a specified range which least effects to critical load operation. Finally, applied in the data center system of a small factory which has satisfactory results.
