The aim of conventional AGC is to regulate the demand load of the area with taking into account the sharing power with the others area and also the frequency deviation and tie-line power deviation within minimum error steady-state.  The proposed coordination's goal is to regulate the demand load between the interconnected area when taking into account the optimal dispatch and emission effect. The two-area that be consist of three units in each one (hydro, thermal, and gas) is used of proposed system. The optimization algorithms were used to find the best operating point of the system by tuning the integral gain are located in ACE that named primary control and Generation allocation logic named secondary controller. The Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Sine Cosine Algorithm (SCA) are used to tune gains of the integral (I) controller to show the superiority in identifying robust controller. The simulation results prove that the SCA with proposed coordination is very effectiveness as compared with PSO algorithm in enhance the dynamic performance and reduce overshoot, maximum frequency deviation, and net tie line power flow deviation error for a given load change and disturbed the demand load between two-area as economic.

This paper demonstrates a Power Hardware-in-the-Loop (PHIL) implementation of a decentralized optimal power flow (D-OPF) algorithm embedded into the operations of two microgrids connected by a tie line. To integrate the static behavior of the optimization model, a two layer control architecture is introduced. Underneath the dispatch commands from the D-OPF, a primary control scheme provides instantaneous reaction to the load dynamics. This setup is tested in the PHIL environment of the CoSES Lab in TU Munich. In the experiment, the two microgrids cooperatively optimize their operation through an ADMM based unbalanced D-OPF. The operations is then benchmarked against the exclusive use of primary control, without D-OPF. The decentralized approach outperforms, but also shows minor inefficiencies of integrating optimization methods into the real-time operation of the system.<br>

The automatic load frequency control for multi-area power systems has been a challenging task for power system engineers. The complexity of this task further increases with the incorporation of multiple sources of power generation. For multi-source power system, this paper presents a new heuristic-based hybrid optimization technique to achieve the objective of automatic load frequency control. In particular, the proposed optimization technique regulates the frequency deviation and the tie-line power in multi-source power system. The proposed optimization technique uses the main features of three different optimization techniques, namely, the Firefly Algorithm (FA), the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), and the Gravitational Search Algorithm (GSA). The proposed algorithm was used to tune the parameters of a Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller to achieve the automatic load frequency control of the multi-source power system. The integral time absolute error was used as the objective function. Moreover, the controller was also tuned to ensure that the tie-line power and the frequency of the multi-source power system were within the acceptable limits. A two-area power system was designed using MATLAB-Simulink tool, consisting of three types of power sources, viz., thermal power plant, hydro power plant, and gas-turbine power plant. The overall efficacy of the proposed algorithm was tested for two different case studies. In the first case study, both the areas were subjected to a load increment of 0.01 p.u. In the second case, the two areas were subjected to different load increments of 0.03 p.u and 0.02 p.u, respectively. Furthermore, the settling time and the peak overshoot were considered to measure the effect on the frequency deviation and on the tie-line response. For the first case study, the settling times for the frequency deviation in area-1, the frequency deviation in area-2, and the tie-line power flow were 8.5 s, 5.5 s, and 3.0 s, respectively. In comparison, these values were 8.7 s, 6.1 s, and 5.5 s, using PSO; 8.7 s, 7.2 s, and 6.5 s, using FA; and 9.0 s, 8.0 s, and 11.0 s using GSA. Similarly, for case study II, these values were: 5.5 s, 5.6 s, and 5.1 s, using the proposed algorithm; 6.2 s, 6.3 s, and 5.3 s, using PSO; 7.0 s, 6.5 s, and 10.0 s, using FA; and 8.5 s, 7.5 s, and 12.0 s, using GSA. Thus, the proposed algorithm performed better than the other techniques.

To determine the efficiency, load-bearing capacity and fatigue life of beveloid gears with intersecting axes, we design a mechanical gear test bed with closed power flow. To test the quality of its structure and predict its overall performance, we establish a three-dimensional solid model for various components based on the design parameters and adopt the technology of virtual prototyping simulation to conduct kinematics simulation on it. Then observe and verify the interactive kinematic situation of each component. Moreover, the finite element method is also utilized to carry out structural mechanics and dynamics analysis on some key components. The results indicate that the test bed can achieve the desired functionality, and the static and dynamic performance of some key components can also satisfy us.

With the distributed generation such as photovoltaic power system (PVS) is largely introduced into power grid, some significant problems such as system instability problem increase seriously. In order to make full use of PVS and make sure the voltage exceeding probability is limited within a certain range to ensure the power quality, as well as consider the cost of access device, the suitable PVS access node and capacity is important. Based on this problem, this paper establishes the probabilistic power flow model of PVS by introducing the combined Cumulants and the Gram-Charlier expansion method. Also, to solve the nonlinear combinatorial optimization problem, this paper uses PSO algorithm. Finally to get the suitable PVS access node and capacity, also calculate the solution of voltage exceeding probability.

The integration of distributed generation (DG) systems based on renewable energy sources (RES) by using power converters is an emerging technology in modern power systems. Among the control strategies applied to this new configuration, the virtual synchronous generator (VSG) approach has proven to be an attractive solution due providing suitable dynamic performance. Thus, this paper presents a dynamic analysis of gridtied converters controlled by using VSG concept. This analysis is based on a dynamic model that describes the DG power flow transient characteristics. Based on this model, the grid impedance parameters variation effects on the VSG controllers dynamic performance are discussed. Simulation results are presented to evaluate the effectiveness of the theoretical analysis performed.

In This research PIDF (Proportional Integral Derivative with Filter) is suggested to control the ACE (area control error) signal of automatic generation control circuit (AGC) for two-area multi units system under deregulated conditions, each area consist of two thermal reheat units with physical GRC (generating rate constrain). The parameters of the PIDF controller are tuned using PSO (particle swarm optimization) technique. To improve the system performance, Redox Flow Batteries (RFB) is presented in one area and one of FACTS components IPFC (Inter Line Power Flow Controller) is installed in tie line. The performance of the proposed controller is assessed under different working conditions of deregulated power market. Finally, a comparison will be made on the system response when testing with varying the load conditions and system parameter through MATLAB environment 2015Rb.

We propose to conceptualise electric energy systems as complex dynamical systems using physically intuitive multilayered energy modelling as the basis for systematic diverse technology integration, and control in on-line operations. It is shown that such modelling exhibits unique structure which comes from the conservation of instantaneous power (P) and of instantaneous reactive power ( _Q), (interaction variables (intVar)) at the interfaces of subsystems. The intVars are used as a means to model and control the interactive zoomed-out inter-modular (inter-area, inter-component) system dynamics. Control co-design can then be pursued using these models so that the primary control shapes intVars of its own module by using its own lowlevel detailed technology-specific model and intVar info exchange with the neighbours. As a result, we describe how the proposed approach can be used to support orderly evolution from today’s hierarchical control to a platform enabling flexible interactive protocols for electricity services. The potential for practical use of the proposed concepts is far-reaching and transparent. All that needs to be conceived is that intVar characterising any intelligent Balancing Authority (iBA) is a generalisation of today’s Area Control Error (ACE) characterising net energy balance of a Balancing Authority (BA). An iBA can be any subsystem with its own sub-objectives, such as distributed energy resources (DERs) comprising customers and grid forming microgrids; distribution systems; transmission systems; Independent System Operators (ISOs); and, ultimately, electric energy markets within large interconnection. Several industry problems are described as particular sub-problems of general interactive electricity services. These formulations help one compare models and assumptions used as part of current solutions, and propose enhanced solutions. Most generally, feasibility and stability conditions can be introduced for ensuring feasible power flow solutions, regulated frequency and voltage and orderly power exchange across the iBAs.
