Fundamental study on stabilization of isolated island power system by use of pump system

摘要

The use of a pump system for water supplies as the controllable load is proposed in order to compensate power fluctuations caused by renewable energy sources (RES) in an isolated island, and a control method of pump system power consumption is discussed. The dynamic model of the pump system is proposed taking into account the two step response of the power consumption caused by the pressure surge. Then, as the way to compensate the short cycle power fluctuations of RES by use of the pump system, deadbeat control with consideration of the pressure surge is proposed. Experimental results with deadbeat control show that power consumption can be settled more quickly compared with the case without deadbeat control. This shows that by use of deadbeat control, it is possible to compensate more rapid power fluctuations of RES.
