The main objectives of Load Frequency Control (LFC) are to hold the frequency constant ( Δf = 0) against any load change, each area must contribute to absorb any load change such that frequency does not deviate, each area must maintain the tie-line power flow to its pre-specified value. In LFC there are two major loops. Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) and Automatic Load Frequency Control (ALF...

In this work, ultrasonic vibration treatment (UVT) was introduced to improve the interfacial microstructure and bonding strength of A356/AZ91D bimetal processed via lost foam compound casting (LFCC). The mechanical properties Al/Mg LFCC with different UVT durations were investigated. Results revealed did not change composition phases at interface. bimetallic interface consisted an intermetallic...

Literature survey shows that generally studies are made assuming the fact that there is no interaction between LFC and AVR loops. But the Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) and Load Frequency Control (LFC) loops are not in truest sense non-interacting. Practically, during dynamic perturbations some interactions between these two control loops exist. Interaction exists in opposite direction of t...

Human and nonhuman primates exhibit flexible behavior. Functional, anatomical, and lesion studies indicate that the lateral frontal cortex (LFC) plays a pivotal role in such behavior. LFC consists of distinct subregions exhibiting distinct connectivity patterns that possibly relate to functional specializations. Inference about the border of each subregion in the human brain is performed with t...

A flexible and versatile method for manufacturing open-cell metal foams, called lost-PLA, is presented in this work. With a double extruder 3D printer (FDM, Ultimaker S3, Utrecht, The Netherlands), it possible to make polymer-based samples of the lost model. Through CAD modeling, different geometries were replicated so as get black PLA samples. This combines advantages rapid prototyping with po...

The job of automatic frequency regulation is achieved by governing systems of individual turbine generators and Automatic Generation Control (AGC) or Load frequency control (LFC) system of the hydro power plant. This seminar report addresses a comprehensive literature survey on load frequency control in hydro power plant. The report is aimed to present the various control and structural schemes...

Porous ceramic materials have found widespread technological and industrial applications from filtration, absorption, catalysts and catalyst supports to lightweight structural components. In the present work, processing is based on the generation of foam from an aqueous suspension of ceramic powder and the subsequent stabilization of the structure by in-situ polymerization of organic monomers. ...

Load-Frequency Control (LFC) is an essential auxiliary service to keep the electrical system reliability at a suitable level. In addition to the regulating area frequency, the LFC system should control the net interchange power with neighboring areas at scheduled values. Therefore, a desirable LFC performance is achieved by effective adjusting of generation to minimize frequency deviation and r...
