In a power system, what are the key considerations for optimizing the economic dispatch of power generation units? Discuss the mathematical models involved.
A power plant comprises three turbine-generators rated 1000 MW, 800 MW and 600 MW respectively. The regulation constant of each generator is 0.05 pu based on its own rating. Each unit is initially operating at one-half of its own rating, when the system load suddenly increases by 250 MW. Calculate the following:a) Per-unit area frequency response characteristic on a 1000 MW system base [CR9]b) Steady-state drop in area frequency [CR4]c) The share of the load increase on each generator [CR9]d) Total load on each generator after the increase in system load [CR3]Assume the reference power setting of each turbine is unchanged.
