Minimum Entropy-Based Cascade Control for Governing Hydroelectric Turbines
In this paper, an improved cascade control strategy is presented for hydroturbine speed governors. Different from traditional proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control and model predictive control (MPC) strategies, the performance index of the outer controller is constructed by integrating the entropy and mean value of the tracking error with the constraints on control energy. The inner co...
متن کاملMinimum-Information-Entropy-Based Control Performance Assessment
Generally, the controller design should be performed to narrow the shape of the probability density function of the tracking error. A small information entropy value corresponds to a narrow distribution function, which means that the uncertainty of the related random variable is small. In this paper, information entropy is introduced in the field of control performance assessment (CPA). For the...
متن کاملReview of Optimal Selection of Turbines for Hydroelectric Projects
The human demand for electricity and fresh water is ever increasing. Due to the nature of hydropower and its economic, social, and environmental benefits, hydropower will be an important contributor to the energy mix of the future. Isolated areas, severely underdeveloped regions, disaster-stricken zones, and remote military outposts have one common need: readily available and efficient means of...
متن کاملMedial design of blades for hydroelectric turbines and ship propellers
We present a method for constructing blades of hydroelectric turbines and ship propellers based on design parameters that possess a clear hydraulic meaning. The design process corresponds to the classical construction of a blade using the medial surface of the blade and profile curves attached to it. The main new contribution of the paper consists in realizing this construction using B-spline t...
متن کاملOverview of Modelling and Control Strategies for Wind Turbines and Hydroelectric Systems: Comparisons and Contrasts
Increasingly, there is a focus on utilising renewable energy resources in a bid to fulfil increasing energy requirements and mitigate the climate change impacts of fossil fuels. While most renewable resources are free, the technology used to usefully convert such resources is not and there is an increasing focus on improving the conversion economy and efficiency. To this end, advanced control t...
