Non-linear excitation and governor control

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

Modern microprocessor capabilities permit the control designer to consider using relatively complicated nonlinear control algorithms, which would have been considered impractical in the past. This thesis presents the results of a study of the variable structure control and inverse control technique for the design of excitation and governor controllers for a power system. Power systems with a single machine connected to an infinite busbar as well as multimachine systems were considered. Control laws for rotor angle and field flux are derived. The closed loop system is shown to be asymptotically stable. The system can be transferred to a new operating condition corresponding to any desired terminal voltage {dollar}V\sb{t}{dollar} and tie-line power {dollar}P\sb{tie}.{dollar}.
