ABSTRACT
This project presents a method of automatic generation control of power system by including
energy storage devices (SMES & EDL !" This techni#ue is applied to a control system that includes two
areas having reheat and non$reheat steam turbines and connected through power$line" % discrete time
model of this system is developed and simulated by using M%TL%' rograming" %s a conse#uence of
continually load variation) the fre#uency of the power system changes over time" *n conventional) studies)
fre#uency transients are minimi+ed by using conventional integral and proportional controllers aiming of
secondary control of %, and +ero steady$state error is obtained after sufficient delay time" *n this study)the conventional * controller is retained and storage device unit incorporated in both areas" The effect of a
small capacity energy storage system is studied in relation to supplying sudden power re#uirements of real
power load" %ccording to the deviation of the power system energy demand) the storage device releases
the needed energy or absorbs residue energy from power system" The results obtained by using SMES &
EDL devices outperform than those of the conventional control method as settling time and overshoot as"
shown at simulation
The SMES device is controlled by a two #uadrant chopper ( lass D! arrangement) by controlling
duty cycle of the choppers" The EDL device is also controlled by two #uadrant chopper ( lass !
arrangement) by controlling the desired value of the current"
ower system parameters are a function of the operating point" To -eep the system performance near its
optimum) it is desirable to trac- the operating point and use the updated parameters to compute the control
signal"*t may be possible to represent such a system by a linear low order discrete time model with time
varying parameters" % recursive least s#uares(.LS! parameter estimation techni#ue) which has a fast
convergence rate is used in this wor- to estimate these time varying parameters" 'ased on this model
which is trac-s the operating conditions of the system) control is computed using a minimum variance
strategy" Thus) the process is the e#uivalent of a controller with dynamically changing coefficients and is
referred to as the self tuning regulator (ST.!"

1. INTRODUCTION________________________________________________% power system must be able to meet reasonable power demands by large and small customers of
domestic) commercial and industrial type" *t must withstand with reasonable security the capricious forces
of nature" *n an age of high energy costs it is called upon to transform the prime energy resources into
electric form with an optimum overall efficiency" The control functions are obviously many and varied"
Some control and decision processes) e/emplified by the optimal utili+ation of the controlled flow of
river systems involve dynamics with month$long time constants" 0ther phenomena) li-e the transients on
the transmission lines following lightning stri-es) run their course in a few milliseconds"
The slower control processes are normally handled by computer$assisted human operators" The
faster control functions are trusted to fully automatic control systems of either open or closed$ loop nature"
% power system involves various control strategies of varying degrees at different stages" %t the
initial stage of a power system (generating unit!) there is a direct control over generation while the load1
demand is unpredictable" Thus there should e/ist a control system) the purpose of which is to continuously
monitor the mismatch between the generation and demand and to adjust the new operating point
accordingly" Such a generation control is performed automatically and is referred to as %utomatic
,eneration ontrol ( AGC !"The first attempt in the area of AGC has been to control the fre#uency of a power
system via the flywheel governor of the synchronous machine" This techni#ue was subse#uently found to be
insufficient) and a supplementary control was included to the governor with the help of a signal directly
proportional to the fre#uency deviation plus its integral" This scheme constitutes the classical approach to the
AGC of power systems" 2ery early wor-s in this important area of AGC have been by 3 ohn4" These wor-s
were based on tie$line bias control strategy" 35ua++a4 illustrated non interactive control considering
i! non interaction between fre#uency and tie$line powers controls and
ii! each control area ta-ing care of its own load variations"
The investigations with large signal dynamics of load 6re#uency onrol ( LFC ! systems were reported by
3%ggarwal4 and 3'ergseth4" The revolutionary optimal control concept for AGC regulator designs of
interconnected power systems was initialed by 3Elgerd4" % techni#ue based on coordinated system$wide
correction of time error and inadvertent interchange was incorporated in an AGC study by 3 ohn4"

Supplementary controllers were designed to regulate the ACE s to +ero effectively" Later on) energy source
dynamics were incorporated in %, regulator design"
2. AGC INCORPORATING BES, SMES AND EDLC STORAGE DEVICES____onventional AGC system is followed by fre#uency and tie$line power deviations) which are
characteri+ed by larger settling times) higher overshoots etc" Such oscillations can be effectively reduced
and1 or damped by incorporating storage devices" *n this project report) the controllers for such storage
devices have been devised and then the improvement in AGC with such devices have been studied) both
for reheat and non$reheat types of steam turbines in parallel with the bac-lash non$linearity"
Most of the solutions proposed so far for AGC have not been implemented practically due to system
operational constraints associated with thermal power plants" The main reason is the non availability of
re#uired power other than the stored energy in the generator rotors) which can improve the performance of
the system) in the wa-e of sudden increased load demands" % fast$acting BES can effectively dampen
electromechanical oscillations in a power system) because they provide storage capacity in addition to the
-inetic energy of the generator rotor) which can share the sudden changes in the power re#uirement"
The problems li-e low discharge rate) increased time re#uired for power$flow reversal) and the
maintenance re#uirement have led to the evolution ofSMES s for their application as load fre#uency
stabili+ers" The use of ACE for the control ofSMES units substantially reduces the tie$line power deviation)
and the action of SMES is locali+ed with diminished contribution for load disturbances in the other
interconnected area) as compared to using fre#uency deviation as the control signal" *t has been observed that
when theSMES control is adaptive) the performance is almost insensitive to controller gain parameter variation"

DYNAMIC INCREAMENTAL STATE VARIABLES____ _ ___________*n static operation the angular nominal fre#uency

is constant throughout the system) and the individual bus voltages have the form
vi = 2 |V i o| sin ( o t+ i o) (1)
7e identify |Vi| and i as our static state variables" 7hen the system is subject to small dynamic
perturbations) these state variables will undergo small changes8 i"e") we can write
i = i o + i
(2)
|V i| = |V i o| + |V i|
and the bus voltages will therefore be of the form
V i = 2 (|V i o| + |V i|) sin ( o t + i o + i) (3)
The angular velocityi of the ith bus e#uals i = d ( o t + i o + i) = o +d i (4)

3" Indirectly ) via feedbac-) due to position changes of lin-age point ' resulting from speed changes"
%! SPEED CHANGER The speed changer provides the steady state operating point for the speed governing system" *n
order to change the reference setting (steady state operating point! we give @.aise and lower: commands to
speed changer and this command is translated into opening and closing steam valve (gate! through lin-age
mechanism and hydraulic amplifier"
&. MATHEMATICAL MODEL OF SPEED GOVERNING SYSTEM __________ The model that we develop applies to small deviations around a nominal steady state" 7e
conse#uently assume the following chain of events9
1" The system is initially in a constant steady state) characteri+ed by a constant nominal speed offre#uency fo) a constant prime mover valve setting x E o) and a constant generator output power P G o"
2" 'y means of the speed changer) we command a power increase P c" %s a result of this command) the
lin-age point % moves downward a small distance x A proportional to P c "
3" The movement of lin-age point % causes small position changes xC and x D of the lin-age points
and D" as oil flows into the hydraulic motor) the steam valve will move the small distance x E ) resulting in
increased turbine tor#ue and) conse#uently ) a power increase P G"
4" The increased power output causes a momentary surplus) or accelerating power in the system" *f thesystem is very large (@infinite:!) the increased generator power will not noticeably affect the speed or
fre#uency will e/perience a slight increase f that will cause the speed and point ' to move downward a
small distance x B proportional to f " The speed governor being fast) we neglect any time delay in it"
onse#uently) we set x B proportional to f "
%ll incremental movements x A. . . x E are assumed positive in directions indicated"
Since all lin-age movements are small) we have the linear relationships
xC = k 1 f k 2 P c

x D = k 3 xC + k 4 x E The positive constants k1 and k 2 depend upon the lengths of the lin-age arms 1 and 2 and upon the
proportional constants of the speed changer and the speed governor" The positive constants k 3 and k 4
depend upon the lengths of the lin-age arms 3 and 4"
*f we assume that the oil flow into the hydraulic motor is proportional to position x D of the pilotvalve) we obtain the following relationship for the position of the main piston9
x E= k 5 (- x D) dt (7)
The positive constant k 5 depends upon orifice and cylinder geometries and fluid pressure"
'y ta-ing the Laplace transform of E#ns" (A! and (B!) and eliminating the variables xC and x D,
we obtain the following e#uation9
x E( s) = k 2 k 3 P c( s) k 1 k 3 F ( s) (8) k 4 + s / k 5
7e rewrite E#n" (C! as follows9
X E( s) = K G / (1+sT G) [ P c( s) F ( s) / R ] = G G( s) [ P c( s) F ( s) / R ] (9)
where
R = k 2 /k1 = speed regulationdue to governor action
K G = k 2 k 3 / k 4 = static gain of speed-governing mechanism
T G = 1 / k 4 k 5 = time constant of speed-governing mechanism
GG( s) = K G / (1 + sT G) = transfer function of speed-governing mechanism
T G is a measure o the reaction speed of the mechanism" ormal values are less than = ms"

'. TURBINE MODEL_____ ________________________________________ 7e are not primarily interested in turbine valve position per se) but rather the resulting generator
power increase P G. The change in valve position) x E , causes an incremental increase in turbine power) P T , which) via the electromechanical interactions within the generator) will result in an increasedgenerator power P G.
This overall mechanism is relatively complicated) particularly if the generator voltage
simultaneously undergoes wild swings due to major networ- disturbances"
*f) as in the present case) we can assume that the voltage level is constant and the tor#ue
variations are of small si+e) then an incremental analysis of the type we performed for the speed governor)
above) will give a relatively simple dynamic relationship between x E and P G. Such an analysis revealsconsiderable differences) not only between steam turbines and hydro turbines) but also between various
types (reheat and non reheat! of steam turbines" *n the crudest model representation we can characteri+e a
non reheat turbine generator with a single gain factor K T and a single time constantT T , and thus write
GT ( s) = P G( s) = K T __ (10) X E( s) 1 + sT T
Typically) the time constantT T lies in the range "> to > s" *n standard bloc-$diagram symbols we
can represent E#ns" (7) and (10) ) as shown in Fig 1.2 , which diagram therefore represents the lineari+ed
model of a nonreheat turbine controller) including the speed governor mechanism"

1. NETWOR# DYNAMIC REPRESENTATION_____ ____________________ The turbine power , P T ) will be used for four different purposes9
1" To supply the demanded @new: load P L"2" To accelerate the turbine$generator) thus increasing the -inetic energy)W kin ) of the unit"3" To increase the powers in outgoing lines) i"e") P l "4" To meet the increase in the @old: load"7e discuss briefly the three last power components"
! #INETIC POWER INCREMENT, (Pkin
The kinetic energy serves as buffer storage" 6or e/ample when a customer suddenly connects a= -7 motor to the system it obviously cannot be met by a corresponding increase in the slow changing
turbine power" *nstead) the generator will supply it by 3borrowing4 from the -inetic energy"
Since the latter varies as the s#uare of the speed this power component can be e/pressed as
follows
P kin = d/dt (W kin ) =d/dt [W kin o ( f / f o) 2] = d/dt [W kin o ( fo+ f / f o) 2] 2W kin o / f o d/dt ( f ) (11)

Fig 1.4 shows the response of the single$area system" 6or comparison) we also simulated the
loop response with the inclusion of the time constantsT G and T T . 7e ma-e the following observations in
regard to our results9
1" The overallclosed loop system time constant e#uals only0.393 sec) which is a considerable reductionfrom the value Tp = 20 sec) characteri+ing the plant itself" This speedup is a result of the feedbac-
arrangement of the speed governor" ote that the system can be made still faster by reducing R , that is) by
increasing the static loop gain"
2" .eduction of R also reduces the static fre#uency error"3" *f we performed the above analysis bynot disregarding the time constantsT T and T G, then the responsewould not be purely e/ponential as above" *n Fig 1. 4 we show the difference" ote that the added delays
cause a larger transient fre#uency dip"

restrictions we in reality impose on fre#uency constancy) the results are) in fact) entirely unacceptable) we
must do much better"
2. INTEGRAL CONTROLLER_________________ ______________________ *t is necessary to achieve much better fre#uency constancy than is obtained by the speed governor
system itself) as demonstrated above" To accomplish this we must manipulate the speed changer in
accordance with some suitablecontrol strategy.'efore we do so) it is necessary to settle for a set ofcontrol
specifications.
ere follo! some realistic specifications9
1" The control loop must be characteri+ed by a sufficient degree of stability"2" 6ollowing a step load change) the fre#uency error should return tozero.3" The integral of the fre#uency error (this integral has dimension of cycles! should not e/ceed a certainma/imum value"
4" The individual generators of the control area should divide the total load for optimum economy"
'y using the control strategy shown in Fig 1.5 ) we obtain an overall$system that will meet performancespecifications = and > above"
7e let the speed changer be commanded by a signal obtained by first amplifying and then integrating) the
fre#uency error"

3. E TENSION TO MULTI/AREA- SYSTEMS_______ _________________The loop model in Fig 1.5 is in strictest sense valid for a single generator only" 7e have noted
that the fre#uency dynamics is relatively slow" This tends to ma-e a whole group of generators in
unison) orcoherently ) thus permitting us to represent them all with thesame f " 6or this reason it is
common to let the model in Fig 1.5 represent a whole 3area4 which in practice typically can embrace a
whole power system" *f this 3area4 via tie$lines is connected to neighboring 3areas4 then we tal- about
multi$area dynamics" *n such among all generators that are under control"If each generator in the area
has the same percentage #regulation$ then each generator !ill participate in proportion to its rating.
The secondary ALFC loops in multi$area systems contain control signals) now referred to as 3area
control errors4 ( ACE !) which in addition to fre#uency error) f , also contains the errors in the contractedtie$line powers" % typical such % 6 would be of the form
ACE = P tie + B f (23)
4. THE TWO/AREA SYSTEM________________________________________
Let us turn our attention to a system consisting of two control areas of the type indicated in Fig1.7 ) interconnected via a relatively wea- tie$line" The areas are generally of different si+e and
characteristics"
BLOC# DIAGRAM OF TWO/AREA SYSTEMEach area is characteri+ed by the bloc- diagram shown in Fig 1.3 in terms of its incremental Pf
dynamics" 'y connecting two of these bloc- diagrams together8 we therefore obtain the two$area model
shown in Fig 1.7 .
%n e/planation must be given about the bloc- having the transfer function a 12 . 7e remember that
in E#n" (17) the term P tie,i represented the tie line power out from area i, e/pressed in per%unitmega!atts of the area capacity P ri . 6or the two$area system the tie line power P tie,1 must e#ual thenegative of P tie,2 ifboth are e/pressed in mega!atts. E/pressed mathematically) this means that
P r1 P tie,1 = -P r2 P tie,2 (24)or P tie,2 = a 12 P tie,1

P c1 = P c2 = 0
7e assume that the loads in each area are suddenly increased by the incremental steps P D& and P D' . 7e shall limit our analysis to finding thestatic changes that result in fre#uency and tie line power" Letus call those changes f stat and P tie1,stat .
Since the incremental increase in generation in this static case is determined by the static loop
gains only) we obtain from Fig 1.7 "

'. THE CONTROLLED TWO AREA SYSTEMS__________________________The response curves of Fig 1.8 indicate that) as in the single area case) we must add integral
control to our system" Let us state) first) the minimum re#uirements the system should meet"
(uggested control%system specifications9 $ 7e shall re#uire that our system meet the four$point
specifications that we stipulated for the single area system" *n addition) we shall re#uire that the steady$
state tie$line power variation) following a step load change) must be +ero" This re#uirement guarantees that
each area) in steady state) absorbs its own load $$$ the guiding principle in pool operation"
The tie%line bias control strategy 9$ Since we must now use a strategy that will cause both the
fre#uency and tie$line deviations to vanish) we shall) as in the single$area case) adopt integral control) butwith the tie$line deviation added to our area control error 8 i"e") we attempt
ACE 1 = P tie1 +b 1 f 1 ACE 2 = P tie2 +b 2 f 2
The speed changer commands will thus be of the form
P c1 = - K I1 ( P tie1 + b 1 f 1 ) dt (29)
P c2 = - K I2 ( P tie2 + b 2 f 2 ) dt (30)
The constants K l1 and K I2 are integrator gains) and the constants b1 and b 2 are the fre"uency bias
parameters" The minus signs must be included since each area shouldincrease its generation ifeither its
fre#uency error f i or its tie line power increment P tie,i is negative"
STATIC SYSTEM RESPONSEThe chosen strategy will eliminate the steady state fre#uencyand tie line deviations for the
following reason9
6ollowing a step load change in either area) a new static e#uilibrium)if such e"uilibrium e)ists,can
be achieved only after the speed changer commands P c1 and P c2 have reached constant values" 'utthis evidently re#uires that both integrands in E#n"(29) be +ero8 i"e")

*n view of E#n"(24) ) these conditions can be metonlyif
f stat = P tie1,stat = P tie2,stat = 0 (33)
DYNAMIC SYSTEM RESPONSEThe added integrators have) contributed to the oscillatory nature of the system" The situation is
depicted in the simulated response graphs in Fig 1.9 " These recordings were obtained for the same
system data as in Fig 1.7 "
The graphs of Fig 1.9 depict the transient response for a step load change (in area =!" %ll graphs
correspond to stable parameter combinations) but we have demonstrated the effect of varying the bias
parameter b. 'oth areas are characteri+ed by identical parameters" The graphs of Fig 1.9a correspond to
b = 0" The system now properly controls the tie line power) but the fre#uency will have a static error"
The graphs of Fig 1.9b relate to the other e/treme case) with b = " ( ote that the product K I b isfinite) which means that K I = 0 !" The control actions are now insensitive to tie line power errors) and as a
result we left with a static power error) but the fre#uency is properly controlled"
The graphs of Fig 1.9c show an intermediate case" either the fre#uency nor the tie$line power
will have any static error" This is the practically important case"

1. INTRODUCTION
The automatic generation control ( AGC ! problem) being the instantaneous mismatch
between supply and demand of real power in power system) can also be effectively reduced by the
addition of Electric Double Layer apacitor (EDLC ! unit" 6ast$acting energy storage systems can
effectively damp electrochemical oscillations in a power systems) because they provide storage capacity in
addition to the -inetic energy of the generator rotors which can sudden changes in power re#uirement" To
store the energy re#uired for AGC applications batteries are used) however) they have some
disadvantages"
;ltra aps electrochemical double layer capacitors are new energy storage devices that close
the gap between aluminum electrolytic capacitors and batteries in terms of power and energy density" They
have two outstanding features9 their energy density is appro/imately = times higher than that of
conventional capacitors and power density is appro/imately = times higher than those of the batteries"
urrently ;ltra aps come with ) A ) => ) =C ) >B ) ?A and G 6" They can be
combined to power modules by series or parallel connection) available either in open or closed design"
;ltra aps are typically preferred in industrial) automotive and drive system applications as well as in power
#uality or ; S systems"
Supercapacitors are well suited to replace batteries" This is because at the moment theirscale is comparable to that of batteries) from small ones used in cellular phones to large ones that can
be found in cars" Even though supercapacitors have a lower energy density compared to batteries) they
avoid many of the batteryIs disadvantages"
'atteries have a limited number of charge1discharge cycles and ta-e time to charge and
discharge because the process involves chemical reactions with non$instantaneous rates" These chemical
reactions have parasitic thermal release that causes the battery to heat up" 'atteries have a limited life
cycle with a degrading performance and acidic batteries are ha+ardous to the environment"
Supercapacitors can be charged and discharged almost an unlimited number of times" They
can discharge in matters of milliseconds and are capable of producing enormous currents" Hence they are
very useful in load leveling applications and fields where a sudden boost of power is needed in a fraction of
a second" They do not release any thermal heat during discharge"

Supercapacitors have a very long lifetime) which reduces maintenance costs" They do
not release any ha+ardous substances that can damage the environment" Their performance does not
degrade with time" Supercapacitors are e/tremely safe for storage as they are easily discharged" They
have low internal resistances) even if many of them are coupled together"
Even though they have a lower energy density) are bul-ier and heavier than an
e#uivalent battery) they have already replaced batteries in many applications due to their readiness in
releasing power"
%S% has a research project to use super$capacitors in an electric bus called 3The
Hybrid Electric Transit 'us4" The energy used to start the engine and accelerate the bus is regenerated from
bra-ing" During test runs) a bus loaded with ? super$capacitors) each of them weighing ?>-g and releasing
energy of G -J at > 2 managed to run for < miles" T0K0T% has developed a diesel engine using the
same technology and is claimed to use just >"B liters of fuel per = -m"
Such devices if used with a Stand %lone 7ind ower lant) can effectively damp out the
electromechanical oscillations caused by varying wind speed and will thus improve the power #uality"

2. DOUBLE/LAYER ULTRACAPACITORS_____________________________0rdinary capacitors store energy in the dielectric material at a value of1/2 CV 2, where 'C'
is its capacitance (farads! andV (volts! is the voltage across its terminals" The ma/imum voltage of
a regular capacitor is dependent on the brea-down characteristics of the dielectric material" The
charge Q (coulombs! stored in the capacitor is given byQ = CV . The capacitance of the dielectric
capacitor depends on the dielectric constant( ) and the thic-ness (d) of the dielectric material plus
its geometric area"
C= A/d
During the past few years) electric double$layer capacitors with very large capacitance values havebeen developed" Those capacitors are fre#uently called Supercapacitors ) Ultracapacitors , or
Electrochemical Capacitors "*t has two electrodes immersed in an electrolyte with a separator between
them" The electrodes are fabricated from porous high$surface$area material that has pores of diameter in
the nanometer range which gives the materiala very large active internal surface) in the order of =
m>"g$=" harge is stored in the micropores at or near the interface between the solid electrode material and
the electrolyte" The charge and energy stored are given by the same e/pressions as those for an ordinary
capacitor) but the capacitance depends on comple/ phenomena that occur in the micropores of the
electrode"
Fig shows the construction details of a double$layer ultracapacitor" The capacitor contains two
particulate$carbon electrodes formed on conductive$polymer films" %n ion$conductive membrane separates
the two electrodes) and a potassium hydro/ide electrolyte permeates the capacitor" The micropores in the
carbon particles result in an enormous surface area and yield e/tremely high capacitance values which
conventional capacitors cannot attain" Energy is stored in the double$layer capacitor as charge separation
in the double layer formed at the interface between the solid electrode material surface and the li#uid
electrolyte in the micropores of the electrodes" The ions displaced in forming the double layers in the
pores) are transferred between the electrodes by diffusion through the electrolyte" The separator
prevents electrical contact between the two electrodes" *t is very thin) with high electrical resistance) but
ion$permeable) which allows ionic charge transfer" olymer or paper separators can be used with
organic electrolytes and ceramic or glass fiber separators are often used with a#ueous electrolytes

The energy and charge stored in the electrochemical capacitor are given by the same
e#uations as for ordinary capacitors" However) the capacitance is dependent primarily on the
characteristics of the electrode material (i"e") surface area and pore si+e distribution!" The specific
capacitance of an electrode material depends on the effective dielectric constant of the electrolyte and
the thic-ness of the double layer formed at the interface"These are very comple) phenomena that are
not fully understood " The thic-ness of the double layer is very small (a fraction of a nanometer in li#uid
electrolytes!) which results in a high value for the specific capacitance"
The performance of electrochemical capacitors depends on the specific capacitance (61g or
61cm?! of the electrode material and the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte used in the device" The
specific capacitance of a particular electrode material depends on whether the material is used in the
positive or negative electrode of the device and whether the electrolyte is a#ueous or organic" Most
carbon materials e/hibit higher specific capacitance9 in the range BG to =BG 61g for a#ueous electrolytes
and < to = 61g for organic electrolytes) which allow much more ions" %lthough a lower specific
capacitance is achieved with organic electrolytes) they have the advantage of higher operating

INTRODUCTION
The automatic generation control (AGC) problem, which is the major requirement in parallel
operation of several interconnected systems, is one of very important subjects in power system studies
!n this study, power systems with two areas connected through tie"lines are considered The
perturbation of frequencies at the areas and resulting tie"line power flows arise due to unpredictable
load variations that cause mismatch between the generated and demanded powers The objective of
AGC is to minimi#e the transient deviations and to provide #ero steady state errors of these variables in
a very short time although unpredictable load variations present !n literature, for AGC, some controlstrategies based on classical control theory have been proposed $nfortunately, because of operating
point continuously changes depending on demand of consumers, the selected fi%ed controller can be
unsuitable at other operating points Therefore, many of controllers with variable structure are
proposed in literature
!n the AGC problem, the instantaneous mismatch between supply and demand of real power in
power system can be reduced by the addition of fast acting superconducting magnetic energy storage
(&' &) unit &' & is a device for storing and instantaneously discharging large quantities of power !t
stores energy in the magnetic field created by the flow of direct current in a superconducting coil which
has been cryogenically cooled to a temperature below its superconducting critical temperature
%s an energy storage device) SMES is a relatively simple concept" *t stores electric
energy in the magnetic field generated by D current flowing through a coiled wire" *f
the coil were wound using a conventional wire such as copper) the magnetic energy
would be dissipated as heat due to the wireIs resistance to the flow of current" However)
if the wire is superconducting (no resistance!) then energy can be stored in a
persistentII mode) virtually indefinitely) until re#uired" Superconductors have +eroresistance to D electrical current at low temperatures so that ohmic heat dissipation is
eliminated) hence the refrigerator is needed in the SMES to cool the coil" *n %
applications) there are still electrical losses) but these can be minimised through
appropriate wire architecture and device design" 6or both D and % applications)
energy savings will be significant" The current carrying capacity of the wire is dependent
on temperature and the local magnetic field" The optimal operating temperature for

most of the devices will be G $BB "
% typical SMES system includes three parts9 superconductingcoil) power conditioning
system and cryogenically cooled refrigerator" 0nce the superconducting coil is charged)
the current will not decay and the magnetic energy can be stored indefinitely"
The stored energy can be released bac- to the networ- by discharging the coil" The
SMES recharges within minutes and can repeat the charge1discharge se#uence
thousands of times without any degradation of the magnetic coil" .echarge time can be
accelerated to meet specific re#uirements) depending on system capacity"
SMES is devoted to improvingpower #uality due to the energy re#uirements of
refrigeration and the high cost ofsuperconducting wire which causes it to be used forshort duration energy storage"*f SMES were to be used forutilities it would be a diurnal
storage device) charged frombaseload power at night and meeting pea- loads during
the day"
O + )*56 57 6 SMES 86*)The basic operation of a an SMES unit is very simple" The transmission voltage
(from the % networ-! is first stepped down from a few hundred -2 to several
hundred volts using a step$down transformer" This is then converted into D which is
fed into the superconducting coil" Hence when the power flows from the system to the
coil) the D voltage will charge up the superconducting coil and the energy is stored in
the coil" The ma/imum energy stored depends on the design of the device"
7hen the % networ-s re#uires a power boost) the coil discharges and acts as a
source of energy"The D voltage is converted bac- into % voltage through the
converter" Thus the power conditioning system uses aninverter 1rectifier to
transform alternating current(% ! power to direct current or convert D bac- to %
power" The inverter1rectifier accounts for about > ?N energy loss in each direction"SMES loses the least amount ofelectricity in the energy storage process compared to
other methods of storing energy" SMES are highly efficient at storing electricity (greater
than OBN efficiency!) and provide both real and reactive power" Thus the addition of a
small capacity SMES unit to a power system significantly improves transients of
fre#uency and tie$line power deviations against to small load disturbances" 7hile there
is a sudden rise in the demand of load) the stored energy is almost released through the

power conversion system to the power system as alternative current" %s the governor
and other controllers start wor-ing to set condition) the coil changes bac- to its initial
value of current" Similar action ta-es place during sudden release of loads" *n this case)
the coil immediately gets charged towards its full value) thus absorbs some portions of
the e/cess energy in the system) and as the system returns to its steady state) the
e/cess energy absorbed is released and the coil current attains its normal value" During
normal operation) the stored energy is ta-en about > $? MJ because of factors of
superconductor stability) mechanical forces and fatigue" So) SMES unit is forced its
lower and upper current limits" Therefore SMES units are separated from the system if
the inductor current reaches its limits and SMES units are again connected only whenthe control signal changes its sign" 7henever SMES unit is disconnected) it is noticed
that the power system is e#uivalent to the one without SMES unit"
Types of power system models
The AGC problem has been dealt with e%tensively for more than three decades The major past
of the wor reported so far has been performed by considering lineari#ed models of two*multi area
power systems +ater on, the effect of GRC was included in these types of studies, considering both
continuous and discrete power system models !ncorporating the dynamics of the energy source in AGC
regulator design, -watny. have proposed an optimal trac ing approach to AGC , considering load to be
the output of the dynamic system
The small signal analysis is justified for studying the system response for small perturbations /owever,
the implementation of AGC strategy based on a lineari#ed model on an essentially nonlinear system does
not necessarily ensure the stability of the system Considerable attention has been paid by researchers
to consider the system nonlinearities +ater, also the destabili#ing effect of governor dead"band non linearity
on conventional AGC system was demonstrated !t is shown that the governor dead band nonlinearity tends to
produce the oscillations in the area frequency and tie"line power transient response

Control Techniques
The pioneering wor by a number of control engineers, namely 0ode and 1yquist has
established lin s between the frequency response of a control system and its closed"loop transient
performance in the time domain The investigations carried out using classical control approaches reveal
that it will result in relatively large overshoots and transient frequency deviation 'oreover, the settling
time of the system frequency deviation is comparatively long and is of the order of 23"43 s
The AGC regulator design techniques using modern optimal control theory enable the power
engineers to design an optimal control system with respect to given performance criterion 5osha and
lgerd were the first to present their pioneering wor on optimal AGC regulator design using this concept
A two"area interconnected power system consisting of two identical power plants of non"reheat thermal
turbines was considered for investigations
The feasibility of an optimal AGC scheme requires the availability of all state variables for feedbac
/owever, these efforts seem unrealistic, since it is difficult to achieve this Then, the problem is to
reconstruct the unavailable states from the available outputs and controls using an observer Considering
state reconstruction, many significant contributions have been made 6ue to practical limitations in the
implementation of regulators based on feedbac of all stale variables, suboptimal AGC regulator designs
were considered
Discrete data model for AGC

Fig 2. shows the control scheme S1 and S2 are two chopper switches ; 1 and ; 2 are two diodes
The duty cycle of the two choppers is ept same Therefore, if T is the chopper period and T o is the time
for which the chopper remains in on state, then
6uty cycle, ; "%o# = T o & T
and ( < ; "%o# < 1
6epending upon the value of ; "%o#, three regions of operation can be identified for the chopper
arrangement in Fig 2. vi#
a) ( < ; "%o# < (.0
5or this condition, there is net power flow into the system This situation is suited for increase in
load demand
b) ; "%o# = (.0
5or this condition, there is no net power e%change with the system This situation is suited when
there is no change in load
c) (.0 < ; "%o# < 1
5or this condition, there will be a net power flow into the &' & device and &' & will be charged
This situation is suitable when there is surplus power in the system and it is required to dissipate this
power
The charging, floating or discharging mode of &' & is decided by the ind of disturbance and will
thus operate in (a), (b) or (c) region of operation respectively 5urther since the load changes are not
fi%ed in practical power systems, thus we can vary the value of ; "%o# in a particular given region in order
to meet the desired requirement

*n recent years) interest in adaptive control systems has increased rapidly along with interest and progress
in robotics and other control fields" The term adaptive system has a variety of specific meanings) but it
usually implies that the system is capable of accommodating un$predictable environmental changes)
whether these changes arise within the system or e/ternal to it" This concept has a great deal of appeal to
the system:s designer since a highly adaptive system) besides accommodating environmental changes)
would also accommodate moderate engineering design errors or uncertainties and would compensate for
the failure of minor system components) thereby increasing system reliability"
INTRODUCTION
*n everyday language) Pto adaptP means to change a behavior to conform to new circumstances" *ntuitively
an adaptive controller is thus a controller that can modify its behavior in response to changes in the
dynamics of the process and the character of the disturbances" Since ordinary feedbac- also attempts to
reduce the effects of disturbances and plant uncertainty) the #uestion of the difference between the
feedbac- control and adaptive control immediately arises"
*n most feedbac- control systems) small deviation in parameter values from their design values will not
cause any problem in the normal operation of the system) provided these parameters are inside the loop" *f
plant parameters vary widely according to environmental changes) however) then the control system maye/hibit satisfactory response for one environmental condition but may fail to provide satisfactory
performance under other conditions" *n certain cases) large variations of plant parameters may even cause
instability"
*n the simplest analysis) one may consider different sets of values of the plant parameters" *t is then
desirable to design a control system that wor-s well for all sets" %s soon as this demand is formulated) the
strict optimal control problem loses its importance" 'y as-ing for good performance over a range) we have
to abandon the best performance for one parameter set"
*f the plant transfer function or plant state e#uation can be identified continuously) then we can compensate
for variations in the transfer function or state e#uation of the plant simply by varying adjustable parameters
of the controller and thereby obtain satisfactory system performance continuously under various
environmental conditions" Such an adaptive approach is #uite useful to cope with a problem where the
plant is normally e/posed to varying environments so that plant parameters change from time to time"

The dynamic characteristics of the plant must be measured and identified continuously or at least very
fre#uently" This should be accomplished without affecting the normal operation of the system" To identify
the characteristics of the system) we must perform a test and analy+e the results" (6or a control system)
this entails imposing a control signal on the plant and analy+ing system response!"*dentification may bemade from normal operating data of the plant or by use of test signals) such as sinusoidal ones of small
amplitude or various stochastic signals of small amplitude" *n practice) no direct application of step or
impulse inputs can be made" ormal inputs and system noise should not disturb the test" However )
identification with normal inputs is only possible when they have ade#uate signal characteristics
('andwidth) amplitude) and so on! for proper identification"

*dentification must not ta-e too long since if it does) further variations of the plant parameter may occur"
*dentification time should be sufficiently short compared with the rate of environmental changes" 7ith time
for identification limited) it is usually impossible to identify the plant completely8 the best one can e/pect is
only partial identification"

Decision here refers to one made on the basis of plant characteristics that have identified"
0nce the plant has been identified it is compared with the optimal characteristics ( or optimal performance!)
and then the decision must be made as to how the adjustable parameters (controller characteristics! shouldbe varied to maintain optimal performance" The decision is accomplished by the computer"
M0D*6* %T*0 '%SED 0 THE DE *S*0 M%DE
Modification refers to the change of control signals according to the results of the identification and
decision" *n most schemes) the decision and modification are conceptually a single operation with the
modification consisting of a means of mechani+ing the transformation of a decision output signal into the
control signal (the input to the plant!"
The control signal) or the input signal to the plant) can be modified in two ways" The first approach is to
adjust the controller parameters to compensate for changes in the plant dynamics" This is called controller
parameter modification"The second approach is to synthesi+e the optimal control signal) based on plant
function or plant state e#uation) desired transient response" This is called control signal synthesis"
The choice between controller parameter modification and control$signal synthesis is primarily a hardware
decision since the two approaches are conceptually e#uivalent" 7here reliability is very important) as in
aerospace applications) the use of parameter change adaptation is often favored over the use of control$
signal synthesis" This is because the system can operate even after the failure of the adaptive loop if thecontrol signal is not entirely dependent on the adaptive portion of the system"

*n many cases it is possible to find measurable variables that correlate well with changes in process
dynamics" These variables can then be used to change the controller parameters" This approach is called
gain scheduling because the scheme was originally used to measure the gain and the change) that is)
schedule) it controller to compensate for changes in the process gain" % bloc- diagram of a system with
gain scheduling is shown" The system can be viewed as having two loops" There is an inner loop
composed of the process and the controller and an outer loop that adjusts the controller parameters on the
basis of the operating conditions" ,ain scheduling can be regarded as a mapping from process parameters
to controller parameters it can be implemented as a function or a table loo-up"
The concept of gain scheduling originated in connection with the development of flight control systems" *nthis application the Mach number and the altitude are measured by air data sensors and used as
scheduling variables" *n the process control the production rate can often be chosen as a scheduling
variable) since time constants and time delays are often inversely proportional to production rate" ,ain
scheduling is thus a very useful techni#ue for reducing the of parameter variations" Historically) it has been
a matter of controversy weather gain scheduling should be considered an adaptive system or not" *f we use
the informal definition) that an adaptive system is a controller with adjustable parameters and an
adjustment mechanism) it is clearly adaptive"
