Emulated Inertia and Damping of Converter-Interfaced Power Source

Converter-interfaced power sources (CIPSs), like wind turbine and energy storage, can be switched to the inertia emulation mode when the detected frequency deviation exceeds a pre-designed threshold, i.e. dead band, to support the frequency response of a power grid. This letter proposes an approach to derive the emulated inertia and damping from a CIPS based on the linearized model of the CIPS and the power grid, where the grid is represented by an equivalent single machine. The emulated inertia and damping can be explicitly expressed in time and turn out to be time-dependent.
