PART–B (3x16 = 48 Marks)


2. a) Derive necessary condition for economic operation of N-plant system
considering transmission losses. [8]
b) A power system consists of two 200MW units whose input cost data are
represented by the equations: C1 = 0.03P12 + 21P1 + 750 Rs/hour, C2 =
2
0.5P2 + 18P2 + 980 Rs/hour. If the total received power PR = 350 MW,

constraints in the problem. [8]

commitment problem in operation of power system. [8]
b) With the help of flow chart, explain the solution of unit commitment problem
using dynamic programing. [8]

5. a) Draw the block diagram of hydro turbine and obtain its modelling. [8]
b) Explain the dynamic response of an isolated area for load frequency control
with first order approximation. [8]

6. For a single area system, show that the static error in frequency can be reduced
to zero using frequency control and comment on dynamic response of
controlled system with necessary equation. [16]

7. a) Compare series, shunt compensations with their advantages and disadvantages. [8]
