Technical FAQs 4

What is inverter frequency?

In today's world, inverters play a vital role in various applications, such as home solar power system, inverter for office use, inverter for van, etc. Central to their operation is the concept of an inverter frequency, which determines the rate at which the current alternates direction.

How do PV inverters respond to grid frequency variation?

After 14 s, setting G u =0, system switches to conventional DC voltage based GFM control (case 3). Then grid frequency steps to 50.05 Hz after t=15s, PV inverter responses to grid frequency variation and settles down according to the droop value with 10 × 0.05/50=0.01MW.

How to calculate angular frequency of PV inverter?

The voltage feedforward controller G u can be adopted in the synchronization unit to make PV inverter stable in strong grid like the HS-GFM control for power based GFM in , , , . Therefore, angular frequency can be expressed as (3) with ω B =100 π rad/s. (3) θ = ω B [G p (u d c u d c r e f) + G u u q c + 1] s

What is the frequency response of a PV inverter?

After t=15s, the frequency steps to 50.25 Hz, the PV inverter frequency responses under different parameters are presented in the figure. With different gains of G p, the frequency responses are different, the smaller gain, the larger energy absorbed into the capacitor and larger voltage deviation.
