POWER SYSTEM OPERATION AND CONTROL


(Electrical and Electronics Engineering)
Time: 3 hours

Max. Marks: 75

Answer any FIVE Questions


All Questions carry equal marks
*****
1 a) Discuss in detail about incremental heat rate curve and cost curve.
b) A power System consists of two, 125 MW units whose input cost data are
represented by the equations :
C1 = 0.04 P12 + 22 P1 + 800 Rupees/hour
C2 = 0.045 P22 + 15 P2 + 1000 Rupees/hour
If the total received power PR = 200 MW. Determine the load sharing between
units for most economic operation.
2 a) Assuming any relevant data and notation, derive the transmission loss formula.
b) The incremental fuel cost for two plants are
dC1 /d PG1 = 0.075 PG1 + 18 Rs./MWh
dC2 / d PG2 = 0.08 PG2 + 16 Rs./MWh
The loss coefficients are given as
B11=0.0015 /MW, B12 = -0.0004/MW and B22 = 0.0032/MW for = 25 Rs./MWh.
Find the real power generations, total load demand and the transmission power
loss.
3

Describe different methods for solving hydro thermal scheduling.

4 a) What is unit commitment problem? Discuss the constraints that are to be accounted
in unit commitment problem.
b) Using dynamic programming method, how do you find the most economical
combination of the units to meet a particular load demand?
5 a) Describe the mathematical model of Speed - Governing System.
b) Develop the mathematical model of single control area and obtain its block
diagram representation.

6 a) Explain the state variable model of two area load frequency controller with integral
action.
b) Two power stations A & B are inter connected by tie line and an increase in load
of 300 MW on system B causes a power transfer of 150 MW from A to B. When
the tie line is open the frequencies of system a is 50 c/s and of system B is 49.6
c/s. Determine the values of KA & KB which are the power frequency constants of
each generator.
