There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Title: Advanced Monitoring of Inverter Interactions for Universal Interoperability
Committee:
Dr. Divan, Advisor
Dr. Saeedifard, Chair
Dr. Grijalva
Abstract: The objective of the proposed research is to develop analytical methods that will enable the study of inverter behavior during steady-state and transient operations in a grid rich with Inverter Based Resources (IBRs). At the core of these IBRs are power-electronic inverters that operate on fast-switching and high-bandwidth controls that can widely vary between manufacturers and technology generations. The existing methods are limited to validate interoperability exhibited by individual inverters during steady-state and transient conditions. This research proposes analytical methods which will be incorporated in a validation device to monitor the compliance of individual inverters to operational principles in an IBR-rich grid, which would in-turn enable universal interoperability.
