PI and Fuzzy Logic Controller Based Analysis of Load Frequency Control for Thermal-nuclear Hybrid Energy Systems
Abstract: In this paper a two-area system: area-1, which has a thermal power plant, and area-2, which contains a nuclear power plant. By combining these domains, two area thermal-nuclear systems are developed in the MATLAB Simulink framework. To ensure the quality of power generated and to feed the load, generation should be raised in tandem with the growth in load demand, or the network should be connected. Using various controllers, LFC …
