Control Strategy of Constant-Speed Air-Conditioners Based on Virtual State of Charging Priority

الملخص EN

As typical thermostatically controlled loads (TCL) driven by constant-speed compressor, constant-speed air-conditioners play important roles in demand-side response for their abilities of energy conversion and storage.

Their great potential for load regulation can be incorporated into power system scheduling through demand response.

In view of their operating characteristics, a virtual energy storage (VES) model of thermostatically controlled loads with electrical and thermal parameters is established.

This model is discretized and linearized to simplify calculation.

By analyzing the control function and constraints of the VES model, the control strategy of VES of constant-speed air-conditioners load with virtual charging state priority is proposed.

Example analysis shows that this strategy can solve and alleviate power shortage problem of the system by participating in demand response, which provides methodological support for constant-speed compressor temperature-control load to participate in the system operation.
