Module 4 Part 3

The document discusses Automatic Generation Control with a focus on load frequency control in steam turbines. It explains the dynamic response of a steam turbine influenced by factors such as entrained steam and reheater storage, and presents a power balance equation for generator-load systems. Additionally, it outlines the modeling of the turbine and generator in a block diagram representation for load frequency control in isolated power systems.

Automatic Generation Control:


Load frequency control

• Related the dynamic response of a steam turbine in
terms of changes in power output to changes in
steam valve opening
• Figure shows a two stage steam turbine with a reheat
unit.

• The dynamic response largely influenced by
two factors,
(i) entrained steam between the inlet steam
valve and first stage of the turbine
(ii) the storage action in the reheater which
TRACE KTU
causes the output of the low pressures stage to
lag behind that of the high pressure stage
• Thus the turbine transfer function is characterized
by two time constants.
• For ease of analysis it will be assumed here that the
turbine can be modeled to have single equivalent
time constant.
• Figure shows the transfer function model of a steam
turbine.

• Typically the time constant lies in the range of 0.2
to 2.5 seconds.
Generator Load Model
• The increment in power input to the generator-
load system is

TRACE KTU
This increment in power input to the system is accounted for
in two ways :
(i) Rate of increase of stored kinetic energy in the generator rotor.
At scheduled frequency (f 0 ),
the stored energy is
Wke0 = H  Pr kW
Pr = kW rating of the turbo - generator
H = inertia constant

TRACE KTU
The kinetic energy being proportional to square of speed (frequency), the
kinetic energy at a frequency of (f 0 + f ) is given by

Rate of change of kinetic energy is therefore

(ii) As the frequency changes, the motor load changes
being sensitive to speed, the rate of change of load
with respect to frequency, i.e. PD can be regarded
f
as nearly constant for small changes in frequency f
and can be expressed as
 PD

Writing the power balance equation

PG − PD = 0

Dividing throughout by Pr , and rearranging,

PG ( pu ) − PD ( pu ) = 0
2H d
(f ) + B( pu )f

Taking the Laplace transform, we can write F(s) as
PG ( s ) − PD ( s )
F(s) =
