Answer all questions

Each full question carries 25 marks :
1.(a) Explain the fundamentals of Automatic generation control in isolated power systems and also in interconnected power systems (13 marks)

(b) A small system consists of 4 identical 500 MVA generating units feeding a total load of 1,020 MW. The inertia constant H of each unit is 5 on 500 MVA base. The load varies by 1.5% for a 1% change in frequency.

When there is a sudden drop in load by 20 MW, (i)Determine the system block diagram with constants H and D expressed on 2,000 MVA base; (ii)Find the frequency deviation assuming that there is no speed governing action (12 marks)

(b) A power system has a total load of 1,260 MW at 60 Hz. The load varies by 1.5% for every 1% change in frequency (D=1.5). Find the steady state frequency deviation when a 60 MW load is suddenly tripped if

(i) there is no speed control;
(ii) the system has 240 MW of spinning reserve evenly spread among 500 MW of generation capacity with 5% regulation based on this capacity.

All other generators are operating with valves wide open. Assume that the effect of governor dead bands is such that only 80% of the governors respond to the reduction in system load. (12 marks)
