Example 12.9.
Example: An isolated power station has the following parameters
Parameter Gain Time Constant
Turbine KT = 1 TT =0.5
Governor Kg =1 Tg = 0.2
Amplifier KA =10 TA =0.1
Exciter KE = 1 TE = 0.4
Sensor KR = 1 TR = 0.05
Inertia H=5
Regulation R = 0.05
Generator KG = 0.8 TG = 1.4
The load varies by 0.8 percent for a 1 percent change in frequency i.e, D = 0.8.
Assume the synchronizing coefficient Ps is 1.5, and the voltage coefficient K6 = 0.5.
Also, the coupling constants are K2 = 0.2, K4 = 1.4, and K5 = -0.1.
Construct the combined Simulink model and obtain the frequency deviation and
terminal voltage responses for a load change of ∆PL1 = 0.2 per unit.
AGC Including LFC and Voltage Control Model
In the AGC topic, it was found that a small change in the real
power is the product of the synchronizing power coefficient Ps and
the change in the power angle ∆δ. If we include the small effect of
voltage upon real power, we obtain the following linearized equation.
Pe PS K 2 E
Where K2 is the change in electrical power for a small
change in the stator emf. Now, the small effect of rotor angle
upon the generator terminal voltage may be included as below:
Vt K 5 K 6 E
Where K5 is the change in the terminal voltage for a
small change in rotor angle at constant stator emf.
AGC Including LFC and Voltage Control Model
Where K6 is the change in terminal voltage for a
small change in the stator emf at constant rotor angle.

The above constants depend upon the network parameters and the operating
conditions. Including the above equations in the AGC system, and the AVR
system, a linearized model for the combined LFC and AVR system is obtained .

Research Projects Based on This Topic
1. Use the same model for three different load variations cases such
as 0.05 per unit, 0.1 per unit, 0.15 per unit. Measure the frequency,
voltage and power responses for all three cases.
2. Apply different Intelligent controllers as mentioned in the previous
videos and compare their response with PID controller in terms of
frequency, voltage overshoot, undershoot, and settling time in order to
show their effectiveness.
