Frequency stability of two-area interconnected power system with doubly fed induction generator based wind turbine

Abstract:

This chapter presents a comparison of the performance of integral (I) and proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controllers in frequency stabilization or load frequency control (LFC) of two-area interconnected power system considering generation rate constraints (GRCs) with Doubly fed induction generator (DFIG)-based wind energy. Two mathematically models are identified for investigations. Power system model 1 is two-area interconnected power system which contains two identical non-reheat thermal plants without DFIG participation. Whereas, power system model 2 contains two identical non-reheat thermal plants with dynamic participation of DFIG at both areas. Moreover, Harris Hawks Optimizer (HHO), Salp Swarm Algorithm (SSA), and Sine Cosine Algorithm (SCA) are applied to find the optimal values of the controller settings mentioned above. The effectiveness of the proposed controllers, which are optimally designed by several optimization techniques (i.e., HHO, SSA, and SCA) is tested and verified through an interconnected power system comprises two identical non-reheat thermal power plants with/without DFIG participation. Time-domain simulation results of the studied power system with all mentioned optimization techniques are carried out using Matlab/Simulink® software to validate the robustness of the proposed controllers.
