Simulation study pid control model to determine the parameters of hydro turbine governor

Abstract

    Base on conventional PID control theory in hydro-turbine governor, a mathematical model to simulate the operation of hydro-turbine governor is developed in this paper. Using this model for testing the controller of hydro-turbine Unit to optimize controlled parameters is faster and less cost than testing on real turbine. This study is applied for Ta co Hydropower project. The results of this study are in close agreement with results of testing on real turbine.
