3. Introduction:
• An electrical power system consists of
many elements connected to form
complex system capable of generating,
transmitting and distributing electrical
energy over a large geographical area.
4. Introduction:
• Power system stability requires a well
designed controllers to regulate system
variations.
• Voltage and frequency control actions needed
to maintain system operating conditions.
• Automatic Generation Control actions take
effect.
5. Introduction:
• Automatic Generation Control (AGC)
is the name given to a control system
having three major objectives:
1.Hold system frequency at a specified
value (50Hz in UAE).
2. To maintain the correct value of
interchange power between control
areas.
3. To maintain each unit's generation at
the most economic value.
6. Introduction:
• Automatic Generation Control has
more advantages, such as:
• Increase Generation Ability by
connecting two or more areas
together.
• Improve ability of load variation
recovery.
• More efficient for detecting and fixing
power faults.
7. Power Generation Mechanism:
• Mechanical energy provide the needed
motion (rotational) to produce
electrical power.
• Generated using thermal energy such
as steam, natural gas and nuclear and
the little rest by hydro-mechanical such
as water falls energy or wind.
8. Elements Of AGC efficiency:
• Load Frequency Controller (LFC).
• The Automatic Voltage Regulator
(AVR).
9. Aims of the project:
• Design and simulate AVR.
• Design and simulate LFC.
• Design and simulate LFC for two areas power
system.
• Design and simulate LFC for three areas
power system.
• Combining AVR with LFC.
• Control the power of different areas.
11. Introduction for the AVR system:
• What is the AVR system?
• Why we need the AVR system?
• Where its connect in the power system?
• What elements its consist of?
12. The AVR system:
• Make the system efficient.
• Consist of sensor, amplifier, exciter and
generator.
• Deals with the reactive power.
13. The AVR system:
• This is diagram for AVR system and it shows where it is
connected in the generation system
16. What is Happening in the AVR
system?
• The amplifier comes first in the AVR system
to amplify the error signal.
• Then the error signals alter the exciter and
consequently the generator.
• The sensor sense the voltage output and
send it to the transducer and the transducer
send in the signal after comparing it to the
amplifier.
18. Advantages of PID:
-Fast response and small error (due to the proportional gain).
- Reduced steady-state error (due to the integral gain).
- Reduced overshoot (due to the derivative gain).
Disadvantages of PID:
- There is no formal way to determine the best PID gains.

25. Load Frequency Control (LFC):
• The main problems of control in the
large power system are:
• Active Power.
• Reactive Power.
• Active power control is closely related
to frequency control.
• The frequency has an inverse
relationship with the load that is
changing continually.
26. Load Frequency Control (LFC):
• Feedback.
• Sensor.
• Frequency fixed.
• Frequency of UAE power system = 50 Hz
27. Load Frequency Control (LFC):
• Analysis of LFC :
High load (Air conditions, machines) High pressure on
system Decreasing in frequency of the load (< 50 + 0.05Hz)
System is unstable.
To return the value of load frequency to its normal:
1) The output will multiply with the value of KG (speed regulation)
then, multiply it with governor delay.
2) There will be a command which tells control valve to control the
pushing of fuel.
3) More mechanical power to turbine More electrical power
Frequency of the load will increase to its normal value
System is stable.

57. Combining AVR with LFC System:
• The connection between the AVR and the
LFC systems only represented in some
constants K1, K2…etc.
• The main concentration in AGC system is
the LFC part more than the AVR system.
• If the LFC system wasn’t stable the AGC
system will not be stable
60. Result by using MATLAB:
The response of the AGC the LFC part The response of the AGC the AVR part
Kp=0.1, Ki=0.2 and Kd=0.009
Overshoot = 0.16
Response Time = 12 s
Steady state error = 0
Overshoot = 0.185
Response Time = 3.5 s
Steady state error = 0
62. From the previous example:
• If the LFC system is not stable the
AGC system is stable.
• If the AVR system wasn’t stable it
not meant to be that the AGC
system isn’t stable.
63. Conclusion:
• The purpose of AGC is the tracking of load
variations while maintaining system frequency,
net tie-line interchanges, and optimal
generation levels close to specified values.
• AGC has more advantages than the previous
technique such as, increasing generation
ability, improve ability of load increase
recovery, more efficient for detecting and fixing
power faults, saving time.
64. Conclusion:
• LFC is used to regulate the output power of
each generator at prescribed levels while
keeping the frequency fluctuations within pre-
specified limits.
• The study of AVR
• show what is the important of the
proportional-integral-derivative action (PID)
controller.
• The LFC system is much slower than the AVR
due to the mechanical inertia constant in LFC.
65. Conclusion:
• If the LFC system is not stable the
AGC system is not stable.
• If the AVR system wasn’t stable it not
mean that the AGC system isn’t
stable.
