Study on the Strategy of Improving the Primary Frequency Regulation Capability by Adaptive Parameters of Turbine Governor

Abstract Many studies have shown the inverse regulation characteristics of water hammer effect inherent in the hydropower system and the unreasonable parameter configuration of the governor result in the generation of the ultra-low frequency oscillation. The main research work of this paper is above two points. Based on the detailed analysis of the influence of each parameter of the speed regulating system on the frequency characteristics of primary frequency regulation, combining with the improved particle swarm optimization algorithm, a self-adaptive parameter configuration technology on PID governor of hydraulic turbine regulation system is presented, the PID parameters can be adjusted continuously according to the rotation speed deviation. And the simulation analysis is carried out. The effectiveness of the adaptive PID parameter method to improve the primary frequency regulation ability is verified.
