Abstract This article explores the optimization of plant characteristics and controller parameters for electrified mobility. Electrification mobile transportation systems, such as automobiles aircraft, presents ability to improve key performance metrics efficiency cost. However, strong bidirectional coupling between electrical thermal dynamics within new components creates integration challenge...

This paper presents a new nonlinear backstepping controller for a direct-driven permanent magnet synchronous generator-based wind turbine, which is connected to the power system via back-to-back converters. The proposed controller deals with maximum power point tracking (MPPT) in normal condition and enhances the low-voltage ride-through (LVRT) capability in fault conditions. In this method, to...

In this paper, model predictive control (MPC) strategy is implemented to a GE9001E gas turbine power plant. A linear model is developed for the gas turbine using conventional mathematical models and ARX identification procedure. Also a process control model is identified for system outputs prediction. The controller is designed in order to adjust the exhaust gas temperature and the rotor speed ...

Achieving accurate control of main steam temperature is a very difficult task in thermal power plants due to the large process lag (8 to 10 minutes) associated with the superheater system and there exists a deviation of ± 10 °C in closed loop control. A control oriented boiler model and an appropriate optimal control strategy are the essential tools for improving the accuracy of this control sy...

In this paper a coordinated master control for a solid fuel power plant has been developed and the performance evaluated in terms of tracking capability, stability and robustness. The control strategy has been model-based predictive control (MPC) and it was evaluated on a nonlinear process model of the Vattenfall power plant Idbäcken in Nyköping, Sweden. The developed master MPC with gain sched...

the aim of this paper is to investigate a novel approach for output feedback damping controller design ofstatcom in order to enhance the damping of power system low frequency oscillations (lfo). the design ofoutput feedback controller is considered as an optimization problem according with the time domain-basedobjective function which is solved by a honey bee mating optimization algorithm (hbmo...

In this paper, tuning of power system stabilizer (PSS) and thyristor controlled series capacitor (TCSC) is studied. The analysis of mode controllability is used to select the effective location for TCSC. The performances of TCSC equipped with a proportional-integral-derivative controller (P-I-D controller) and proportional-integral-derivative power system stabilizer (P-I-D PSS) are investigated...
