Abstract

This paper explains the design, modeling, and control of a synchronous generator using Automatic Generation Control (AGC) and Power System Stabilizer (PSS) with a combination of Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) for a hydroelectric power system. In the proposed system the damping torque and another source of negative damping of the generator can be reduced by the AVR. A classical PID controller is used in the AVR system. Interconnecting (synchronizing) the generator in a tie system, the overall system fluctuation due to a large disturbance in one of the interconnections is mathematically analyzed and the transient & steady state performance of the controller are evaluated.
