Steam Versus Hydraulic Power Plants For Frequency Stability Performance
Journal Title: International Journal of engineering Research and Applications - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 10
Abstract
Load Frequency Control (LFC) is a primary control following disturbances such as faults and load disconnection. It is primitive for proper operation of the power system. It utilizes the real and virtual synchronous inertias for regulating the frequency. The objective of this control is to maintain the frequency within the acceptable limits. This article compares between the performances of conventional based power plant, steam, and hydro power plants. Different control techniques to regulate the frequency of these power systems are highlight, while revealing the promising performance indictor of each type. Optimal and zero steady-state frequency control approaches are investigated for these two systems. MATLAB simulation is used to simulate the dynamic performance of steam and hydraulic power plants. The results reveal the robustness and effectiveness of the proposed controller for reducing steady-state frequency error in relatively short time.
