Primary Frequency

The power system frequency stability problem has been the focus of attention since 1920s. Primary frequency regulation (PFR) is one of vital methods to maintain frequency stability, especially when the power system suffers a sudden load disturbance, such as the substation tripping or generator outage accident. To a power system, the more power units participating in PFR, the frequency stability will be controlled better. With the rapid development of nuclear power units in China, the study of the nuclear power units participating in PFR of power system has becoming a pressing problem. In the present study, a detailed nonlinear dynamic mathematical model of the whole pressurized water reactor (PWR) nuclear power plant is built. The dynamic calculation codes are compiled to dynamic link library (DLL) files, which are developed by using FORTRAN language, and the compiled DLL files are embedded into MATLAB/SIMULINK simulation platform by using S-function, the control systems are designed and the whole system of PWR nuclear power plant is simulated in MATLAB/SIMULINK finally. In this method, the operation and control mode of PWR participating in PFR of power system is analyzed and simulated. The simulations results show that the PWR nuclear units are feasible in participating in PFR from safety and economy.

Primary Frequency

The issue related to the participation of Ukrainian nuclear power plants in regulating frequency and power in the united energy system of Ukraine is considered in the paper. The dependence of frequency changes in the grid on the imbalance between generation and consumption of active power is presented. This can violate conditions of parallel operation of generators. Three levels of the frequency control system in the power system using backup capacities are examined. The issues of participation of nuclear power units in regulating frequency and power are studied. It is shown that the main factors limiting such participation are the characteristics of fuel assemblies. These characteristics govern the change in reactor power in a narrow range. An obstacle is also the mismatch of the characteristics of the equipment of power units for participation in regulating power system frequency. The complexity of regulating the electric power of a WWER nuclear power unit is under consideration, which is implemented by coordinated regulation of the reactor power and generator power. The regulatory requirements for the characteristics of the primary frequency regulation by nuclear power units is carried out. The possibility of their participation in the normalized primary frequency regulation are analyzed. The paper considers the concept of the National Nuclear Energy Generating Company “Energoatom” for the modernization of systems and equipment of WWER-1000 power units, which provides bringing the characteristics of power units in line with standards. The methodology for preliminary testing of the readiness of Zaporizhzhya NPP Unit 1 (“pilot” power unit) to participate in such regulation is described. The methodology involves testing at two power levels at the beginning and in the end of the fuel campaign. A signal is used to simulate a frequency deviation that is input via a separate train of the control system. The tasks, conditions and criteria for the success of the tests are described. Based on the test results, conclusions will be drawn about the possibility of the safe participation of WWER-1000 power units in the normalized frequency regulation in the united energy system of Ukraine and the necessary measures to modernize the equipment.
