Sensors fault diagnosis and fault tolerant control for grid connected PV system
This paper discusses a Sensors Fault Detection and Isolation (FDI) and Fault Tolerant Control (FTC) of three phase inverter for PV system application. All sensors used in the inverter control strategy are addressed in this work. The developed FDI algorithm focuses on residuals generation; it is defined by the different between measurement and reconstituted signal. So, estimators block are investigated, such as, two Models References Adaptive Systems (MRAS) are developed to reconstitute the information of three phase line currents and dc link voltage sensors. The reconstituted information is injected to the corresponding FDI algorithm. Grid voltage sensors FDI is presented in this contribution trough the use of scaled virtual flux estimator, based on Second Order Generalized Integrator and Frequency Looked Loop. When a fault detected, FTC is ensured by replacing the erroneous measurement by its corresponding estimator. Theoretical study and simulations results are presented to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method. (C) 2016 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
