Governor design for hydropower plants by intelligent sliding mode variable structure control

This work proposes a neural-fuzzy sliding mode control scheme for a hydro-turbine speed governor system. Considering the assumption of elastic water hammer, a nonlinear mode of the hydro-turbine governor system is established. By linearizing this mode, a sliding mode controller is designed. The linearized mode is subject to uncertainties. The uncertainties are generated in the process of linear...

Governor Design for a Hydropower Plant with an Upstream Surge Tank by GA-Based Fuzzy Reduced-Order Sliding Mode

This paper investigates governor design by reduced-order sliding mode for a hydropower plant with an upstream surge tank. The governing system is made up of a tunnel, a surge tank, a penstock, a wicket gate and servomechanism, a governor, a hydro-turbine and a grid. Concerning the components of the governing system, their mathematic models are established. Then, these models are interconnected ...

Direct Adaptive Fuzzy Variable Structure Control Design without Sliding Mode for Nonlinear Systems with Unmatched Disturbances

Fuzzy adaptive sliding mode control method is a good way to resolve the control problem when the system mathematic model is unknown. However, reaching condition must be satisfied in this method. In this paper, a kind of fuzzy adaptive variable structure control method is presented in which sliding mode doesn’t exist in closed-loop system. Dynamic fuzzy logical system (DFLS) is introduced to for...

Sliding Mode Navigation Control in Intelligent Space

This paper presents a general description for obstacle avoidance algorithms which can also describe the obstacle avoidance style(walking habit) of moving objects (human beings).A complex sliding mode based obstacle avoidance is presented as a test method, which is learned and modeled by the above mentioned general description. The paper presents simulation results of the sliding mode based navi...

Invariant Sliding Sector for Variable Structure Control

A sliding sector has been defined as a subset of the state space, inside which a norm of state decreases with zero control input [1]. In this paper, an invariant sliding sector is defined to be such a kind of sliding sector inside which with a suitable control law, the norm keeps decreasing and the system state stays there since then after entering the sector, i.e. the sector defined in the pap...
