Physics-Informed Neural Network-Based Control for Grid-Forming Converter's Stability Under Overload Conditions
Grid-forming converters (GFCs) are crucial for frequency and voltage stability in modern power systems. However, their performance under overload conditions remains a challenge. This paper highlights the limitations of existing approaches in managing DC source saturation and AC current limits, emphasizing the need for improved control strategies to ensure system stability. This paper proposes a control strategy based on a physics-informed neural network (PINN) to improve GFC performance under overloaded conditions, effectively preventing switch failures and mitigating DC source saturation. This approach outperforms conventional methods by maintaining stable voltage and frequency, even under significant load increase where traditional droop control alone proves inadequate. The post-disturbance operating point of GFCs remains unchanged using PINN-based control with an improvement of 0.245 Hz in frequency and 0.03 p.u. in active power when compared to an already existing current limitation strategy. Additionally, it reduces peak voltage deviations during transients by 24.14\%, lowers the rate of change of frequency (ROCOF) from 0.02 Hz/s to 0.005 Hz/s, and improves the rate of change of voltage (ROCOV), keeping both within acceptable limits. These improvements significantly enhance system resilience, especially in inertia-less power networks.
