§ Review the NERC essential reliability services§ Frequency control
§ Ramping
§ Voltage control
§ Why are they important? What happens if they are not provided?
§ Describe the relevant dynamic behavior associated with each service
§ How are they provided?
§ Normal state, all system variables are within the normal range
§ Alert state, security level falls below a certain limit of adequacy because of a disturbance
§ Emergency state, severe disturbance fault clearing, generation tripping, load curtailment
§ In extremis, cascading outages load shedding and controlled system separation
§ Restorative state, control action is being taken to reconnect all the facilities and to restore system load.

§ Real power and frequency dynamics are coupled
§ Frequency will change with a change in net power on the system§ Load increase or decrease
§ Power output increase or decrease
§ How is the system brought back into balance?§ Load response à new, emerging behavior
§ Generator response à Traditional method
§ Single generator
§ Multiple generator uncoordinated response
§ Multiple generator coordinated response
§ To prevent extended system operation at low frequencies, load shedding is performed to bring a system back into energy balance
§ For example, a system could follow:§ 10% load shed when frequency drops to 59.2 Hz
§ An additional 15% of load is shed if frequency drops to 58.8 Hz
§ An additional 20% of load is shed if frequency drops to 58.0 Hz

§Control of voltage levels is carried out by controlling the production, absorption, and flow of reactive power
§Generating units provide the basic means of voltage control (synchronous generators)§ They can generate or absorb Q depending on
excitation
§ Automatic voltage regulator continuously adjusts excitation to control armature voltage
5
§ The higher frequency rises (returns) at level B, the better it is for system recovery.
§ Systems with significant inertia have greater frequency restoring capability
§ The Eastern Interconnect has better recovery capabilities than ERCOT
§ As traditional steam turbines are replaced by variable generation, system inertia decreases
§ Isochronous means constant speed§ The goal of isochronous control is to maintain 60 Hz exactly.
§ Droop means that as more load that is placed on an engine, it will run more slowly.
§ As a percentage, droop is:
! = Δ$/$Δ&/&
§ Droop is defined as the % deviation in frequency that will result in a 100% change in output... A 5% droop means that a 5% change in frequency will cause a 100% change in power output
§ Governors implement the droop behavior of a generator
§ In power systems, droopi is set so that interconnected generators share in frequency recovery proportionally.
6
§ Ideally we want to maintain constant system frequency as the
load changes.
§ If there is a single generator, then an isochronous governor is
used
§ The controller integrates frequency error to bring the frequency back
to the desired value
§ This cannot be used with interconnected systems because of "hunting"

§ “Droop Control” allows power sharing between generators
§ The desired set point frequency is dependent upon the generator’s output

RD = D - D
• R is the droop, orregulation constant• A typical value is 4 or
5%.
• At 60 Hz and a 5% droop, each 0.1 Hz change would change the output by • 0.1/(60*0.05) =

§Load Damping Constant, D§ Is defined as a percent change in load for a 1%
change in frequency
§ D is typically 1% to 2%
§ So if D = 2%, then for the composite load on the system, a 1% change in frequency would result in a 2% change in system load

§Note Req !!
§Generators are being operated in parallel

§ Using the previous 3 bus example, let generators 1 and 2 have ratings of 500 and 250 MVA respectively and governors with a 5% droop.
§ What is the final frequency (assuming no change in load)?

To solve the problem in per unit, all values need to be on a common base (say 100 MVA)Δpm1 +Δpm2 = 85 /100 = 0.85
R1,100MVA = R1100500
= 0.01, R2,100MVA = R2100250
= 0.02

(W.W.S. CHAPTER 10)§ Suppose that you are given a single area with three
generating units as shown below.
Unit Rating (MVA) R (Speed Droop) (per unit on unit base)
1 100 0.01 2 500 0.015 3 500 0.015
§ The units are initially loaded as follows:
§ P1 = 80 MW
§ P2 = 300 MW
§ P3 = 400 MW
a) Assume D = 0; what is the new generation on each unit for a 50 MW load increase?
b) Repeat with D = 1.0 pu (i.e., 1.0 pu on load base). Be careful to convert all quantities to a common base when solving.
