    Deadbeat voltage control for a grid-forming power converter with LCL filter
    (IEEE, 2023) Samanes Pascual, Javier; Rosado Galparsoro, Leyre; Gubía Villabona, Eugenio; López Taberna, Jesús; Pérez, Marcelo A.; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren
    Grid-forming power converters are controlled as voltage sources to regulate the grid voltage and frequency. These converters can increase power system strength if they impose a voltage waveform resilient to grid transients. For this reason, in this paper, we propose a deadbeat control strategy of the capacitor voltage for high power converters with LCL filter. To damp the LCL resonant poles, an active damping strategy is developed, based on a modification of the deadbeat control law. With this purpose, a notch filter is applied to the electrical variables allowing to emulate different damping resistances for the fundamental component and the harmonics. As a result, the active damping does not introduce tracking errors of the fundamental frequency component, while it provides damping to the filter resonance. The proposed strategy does not require knowledge of the grid impedance, an interesting feature in grid-connected power converters because the grid impedance is generally unknown. Experimental results validate the proposed strategy.

    Students in the STEM field (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics), do not only require deep technical knowledge, but a complete set of global skills related to management, teamwork, lifelong learning, personal development, communications skills or proactiveness, abilities often referred as soft-skills. Student-led organizations, and specifically, university student associations, are one of the best alternatives to promote the acquisition of soft-skills in STEM high education fields. These skills are competences already included in official university programs that can hardly be addressed or acquired from traditional university education. This article studies how student enrollment in student led organizations (SLOs), with an active participation on their organization and activities, allows engineering students to achieve a better development of these soft skills. As case study, a medium size university, with 9000-students and eleven SLOs, six of them focused on STEM related fields, is used in this paper. A survey is conducted among the university community to identify their degree of participation in SLOs, and to test whether participation in these initiatives increases students' self-perception of their soft skill acquisition during their university studies. This survey shows how students of engineering programs, with a high degree of involvement in SLOs, demonstrated greater confidence in their soft skills at the end of their university years.

    Robust active damping strategy for DFIG wind turbines
    (IEEE, 2021) Rosado Galparsoro, Leyre; Samanes Pascual, Javier; Gubía Villabona, Eugenio; López Taberna, Jesús; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación
    Doubly fed induction generators (DFIGs) with an LCL filter are widely used for wind power generation. In these energy conversion systems, there is an interaction between the grid-side converter (GSC) and the rotor-side converter (RSC) control loops, the generator and the LCL filter that must be properly modeled. Such interaction between the GSC and the RSC proves to have a significant influence on the stability. Several active damping (AD) methods for grid-connected converters with an LCL filter have been proposed, nevertheless, the application of these techniques to a DFIG wind turbine is not straightforward, as revealed in this article. To achieve a robust damping irrespective of the grid inductance, this article proposes an AD strategy based on the capacitor current feedback and the adjustment of the control delays to emulate a virtual impedance, in parallel with the filter capacitor, with a dominant resistive component in the range of possible resonance frequencies. This work also proves that, by applying the AD strategy in both converters simultaneously, the damping of the system resonant poles is maximized when a specific value of the grid inductance is considered. Experimental results show the interaction between the GSC and the RSC and validate the proposed AD strategy. © 1986-2012 IEEE.

    Capacitor current feedback active damping with lagged compensator for DFIG wind turbines with LCL filter
    (IEEE, 2020) Rosado Galparsoro, Leyre; Samanes Pascual, Javier; Gubía Villabona, Eugenio; López Taberna, Jesús; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica
    Several active damping strategies have been proposed in the literature for grid-connected converters with LCL filter but there are not specific strategies for DFIG wind turbines. In this system, there is an interaction between the two converters of the back-to-back conversion structure, which must be properly modeled in order to design effective damping strategies for the LCL filter resonant poles. This paper proposes a robust active damping strategy for DFIG wind turbines with LCL filter that considers the special features of this system. In this technique the filter capacitor current is fed back through a lag compensator that adjusts the delay of the feedback loop to emulate a virtual impedance that has dominant resistive behavior in the range of possible resonance frequencies. It is shown that a similar damping of the LCL filter resonance is achieved when the strategy isimplemented in either of the two converters.

    Selective harmonic mitigation: limitations of classical control strategies and benefits of model predictive control
    (IEEE, 2023) Rosado Galparsoro, Leyre; Samanes Pascual, Javier; Gubía Villabona, Eugenio; López Taberna, Jesús; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
    Selective harmonic mitigation pulsewidth modulation (SHMPWM) combined with model predictive control (MPC) is a promising approach for grid-connected power converters. SHMPWM can guarantee grid code compliance in steady state, e.g. grid harmonic injection, with a reduced output converter filter, while MPC improves dynamic response and allows grid code compliance in the event of grid transients. This paper presents a survey of the MPC strategies already published in the literature developed for their use with SHMPWM. The existing strategies fall into two categories: direct model predictive control with an implicit selective harmonic mitigation modulator, and direct model predictive control based on finite control set (FCS-MPC). One representative control strategy of each group is compared to each other and to the performance of classical proportional- integral (PI) controllers combined with SHMPWM. The goal is to identify the potential benefits of MPC for grid-connected power converters, and determine the main advantages and limitations of the two selected state-of-the-art control strategies. Their performance is assessed through Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) experimental results in terms of real-time implementation, harmonic content grid code compliance, dynamic response and performance under grid transients.

    Sub-synchronous resonance damper based on the stator voltage feedback for DFIG wind turbines
    (IEEE, 2020) Samanes Pascual, Javier; Rosado Galparsoro, Leyre; Gubía Villabona, Eugenio; López Taberna, Jesús; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación
    Doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) wind turbines connected to series compensated grids are prone to sub-synchronous resonance (SSR) instability. In this paper we develop a model to analyze SSRs and propose a damping strategy based on the stator voltage feedback that is implemented in the rotor-side converter (RSC). The control strategy is based on local variables that are already measured, so it is applicable to any new or existing DFIG wind turbine. Simulation results performed fora real wind farm where sub-synchronous resonances were reported validate the proposed damping strategy.
