Grid connected voltage source converters are inevitable means now for expanding and supporting power systems. Nevertheless, their harmonic injection and high frequency switching may cause degradation of power quality and detraction of the equipment reliability. Therefore, the converters injected harmonics must observe the corresponding standards, while lower switching frequencies and rapid transient responses are desirable. In this paper, a new combined control method with a flexible switching table is presented for the converters to enhance the power quality and transient response. The method employs a virtual flux in connection with a combined control for the first time. In comparison with the conventional virtual flux direct power control, the proposed method provides better power quality, reduced THD and faster transient response, in addition to less grid parameters dependency. Compared to the conventional combined control method, it determines more accurately the converter voltage vectors, while avoiding grid voltage measurement and cumbersome controller tuning.
