nowadays,it is important to consider environmental issues,as ecological problems and their severe effect intensify in iran,particularly in khuzestan province.the environmental effects of hydroelectric plants are highly regarded due to their significant impact on an extensive area.the lack of safe path for fish passing through the turbines is one of these damages. in order to deal with these cha...

Power Generation from Renewable energy sources like wind, solar, geothermal, biomass, and hydro is predominant now days and among the renewable energy sources, small hydro and wind energy have the ability to complement each other. For Power generation by small or micro hydro as well as wind systems, the use of squirrel-cage induction generators (SCIGs) is mostly adopted. As regards in recent ye...

In hydro power plants from Romania, there is a major interest for the implementation of digital systems for monitoring and control to replace the conventional control systems for power, frequency and voltage. Therefore is necessary to develop mathematical models capable to accurately describe both dynamic and stationary behaviour of the hydro units, in order to be able to implement digital cont...

s: -Most of the small hydro power plants are based on Run of River scheme, implying that they do not have any water storage capability. The power is generated only when enough water is available from the river. When the stream flow reduces below the design flow value, the generation will reduce as the water does not flow through the intake structure into the turbine. Small hydro plants may be s...

The short term hydrothermal scheduling (STHTS) is a daily planning proposition in power system operation. The main purpose of hydro thermal generation scheduling is to minimize the overall operation cost and to satisfy the given constraints by scheduling optimally the power outputs of all hydro and thermal units under study periods, given electrical load and limited water resource. This paper p...

as renewable energy increasingly penetrates into power grid systems, new challenges arise for system operators to keep the systems reliable under uncertain circumstances, while ensuring high utilization of renewable energy. this paper presents unit commitment (uc) which takes into account the volatility of wind power generation. the uc problem is solved with the forecasted intermittent wind pow...

a hybrid hydro/wind/photovoltaic base on hydrogen storage system is designed to supply power demand of pump stations. the aim of this design is minimization of net present cost of the hybrid system. optimization problem is subject to reliable supply of the demand. the system is investigated in the north west of iran (meshkinshahr) and the local data is applied. about 12 pump stations are found ...

this paper presents a simplifiedlagrangian multiplier based algorithm to solve the fixed head hydrothermalscheduling problem. in fixed head hydrothermal scheduling problem, waterdischarge rate is modeled as quadratic function of hydropower generation andfuel cost is modeled as quadratic function of thermal power generation. thepower output of each hydro unit varies with the rate of water discha...

Electrical energy concurrent which cannot be stored so must be utilized as soon as it is generated. Therefore it requires an effective balance of power flow within multi area power system. This paper studies about a two area system [Hydro power plant & PMSG based Wind energy conversion system] which is connected through a tie line. Due to the rapid fluctuation in the wind power it causes distur...
