    Tutorial-2: Load Frequency Control

    1. Two alternators of ratings 500 MW and 200 MW are feeding a system. The frequency is
    50 Hz and each alternator is operating at half load. The system load increases by 140
    MW and as a result of it the frequency drops to 49.5 Hz. What should be the value of
    regulation constants in Hz/MW for each unit if it is desired that the two alternators should
    share the load in proportion to their ratings?
    (Ans: 0.005 Hz/ MW and 0.0125 Hz/MW)
    2. The speed of 100 MW alternator drops by 4% from no-load to full load.
    a) Find the regulation R in Hz per MW and Hz per unit MW of alternator.
    b) If frequency drops by 0.1 Hz, find the change in power output.
    (Ans: 0.02 Hz/ MW, 2 Hz/ pu MW and 5 MW)
    3. Two alternators of ratings 300 MW and 400 MW are operating in parallel. The droop
    characteristics of their governors are 4% and 5% respectively from no load to full load.
    Assuming `that they are operating at 50 Hz at no load, how would they share a load of
    600 MW and what will be the frequency at this load.
    (Ans: 48.06 Hz)
    4. Two alternators of ratings 300 MW and 400 MW are operating in parallel. The droop
    characteristics of their governors are 4% and 6% respectively from no load to full load.
    The speed changes are set so that a load of 400 MW is shared among the generators at 50
    Hz in the ratio of their ratings. What are the no load frequencies of the generators?
    (Ans: 51.17 Hz and 51.74 Hz)
    5. Two identical 2 MVA alternators operate in parallel. The governor of first machine is
    such that the frequency drops uniformly from 50 Hz on no-load to 47.5 Hz on full-load.
    The corresponding uniform speed drop of the second machine is 50 Hz to 48 Hz. How
    will they share a load of 3 MW?
    (Ans: 1.333 MW, 1.667 MW)
    6. The following two synchronous machines are operating in parallel
    Machine A: 50 MW, 6% speed regulation
    Machine B: 50 MW, 3% speed regulation
    i.
    Determine the load taken by each machine for a total load of 80 MW when the
    speed changes are set to give rated speed at 100% rated output.
    (Ans: 43.333 MW, 36.667 MW)
    ii.
    The speed changer of machine A is so adjusted that 80 MW is equally shared.
    Find the output of machine A for the rated speed and also its percentage speed at
    no-load.
    (Ans: 45 MW, 105.4%)

    7. Two synchronous generators are supplying a common load. Generator 1 has no-load
    frequency of 51.5 Hz and regulation of 1 MW/Hz. Generator 2 has no-load frequency of
    51 Hz and regulation of 1 MW/Hz. The total load is 2.5 MW at 0.8 lagging.
    i.
    At what frequency, are the generators supplying this load and how much power is
    supplied by each generator?
    (Ans: 1.5 MW, 1.0 MW)
    ii.
    An additional load of 1 MW is attached to this system. What will be the new
    frequency?
    (Ans: 49.5 Hz)
    iii.
    How much is governor set point (frequency in Hz) of generator 2 to be adjusted to
    bring the system frequency at 50 Hz for 3.5 MW system load?
    (Ans: 52 Hz)
    8. Two power plants A and B are interconnected by a lossless line. Capacity of A is 200
    MW and that of B is 100 MW. Their speed regulations from no load to full load are 1.5%
    and 3% respectively. The load on bus of each station is 100 MW. Find the generation at
    each plant and transfer of power through line.

    (Ans: 160 MW, 40 MW, 60 MW)

    9. Two 50 Hz power plants A and B are interconnected by a lossless line. Capacity of A is


    15 MW and that of B is 4 MW. Their speed regulations from no load to full load are 3%
    and 4% respectively. The load on busbar of plant B is 4 MW and that on A is 10 MW.
    Find generated output of each station, power transmitted by interconnecting line and
    operating frequency. Assume free governor action and no load frequency of 50 Hz at
    both stations.

    (Ans: 11.67 MW, 2.33 MW, 1.67 MW and 48.833 Hz)
