This study focuses on designing an effective intelligent control method to stabilize the net frequency against load variations in multi-control-area interconnected power systems. Conventional controllers (e.g. Integral, PI, and PID) achieve only poor control performance with high overshoots and long settling times. They could be replaced with intelligent regulators that can update controller parameters for better control quality. The control strategy is based on fuzzy logic, which is one of the most effective intelligent strategies and can be a perfect substitute for such conventional controllers when dealing with network frequency stability problems. This paper proposes a kind of fuzzy logic controller based on the PID principle with a 49-rule set suitable to completely solve the problem of load frequency control in a two-area thermal power system. Such a novel PID-like fuzzy logic controller with modified scaling factors can be applied in various practical scenarios of an interconnected power system, namely varying load change conditions, changing system parameters in the range of ±50%, and considering Governor Dead-Band (GDB) along with Generation Rate Constraint (GRC) nonlinearities and time delay. Through the simulation results implemented in Matlab/Simulink software, this study demonstrates the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed fuzzy logic controller over several counterparts in dealing with the load-frequency control of a practical interconnected power system considering the aforesaid conditions.

The Impact

Modern multi-area power systems are in persistent facing to imbalances in power generation and consumption which directly causes frequency and tie-line power fluctuations in each area. This paper deals with the load frequency control (LFC) problem where the control objective of regulating their error signals despite the presences of several external load disturbances. It proposes an optimal design of proportional integral derivative controller (PID) based on a novel version of Jaya algorithm called self-adaptive multi-population elitist (SAMPE) Jaya optimizer. A filter with derivative term is integrated with PID controller to alleviate the impact of noise in the input signal. A time domain based-objective functions are investigated such as integral time-multiplied absolute value of the error (ITAE) and integral of absolute error (IAE). Both SAMPE-Jaya and Jaya optimizers are employed to optimally tune the PID parameters for interconnected power systems comprising two non-reheat thermal areas. Three test cases are performed with various load disturbances in both areas individually and simultaneaously. Also, the practical physical constraints related to generation rate constraint (GRC) with its nonlinearity characteristics are taken into account. In addition, the obtained results using the designed PID controller based on SAMPE-Jaya are compared with various reported techniques. These simulated comparisons declare the great efficiency and the high superiority of the designed PID controller based on SAMPE-Jaya.
