(2) Discuss the different configurations of reheat type of steam turbines with a representation
of their functional block diagrams and approximate their linear models.
(4) Develop the steady-state analysis of salient and non-salient-pole synchronous machines.
(5) Develop the dynamic analysis of salient and non-salient-pole synchronous machines, with
and without damper windings.
(3) Explain the different types of limiters and their role in speed-governing system modelling.
(4) Explain the various components of a block diagram representation of a general excitation
[1.] Three power plants of a total capacity of 425 MW are scheduled for operation to supply
a total system load of 300 MW. Find the optimum load scheduling if the plants have the
following incremental cost characteristics and the generator constraints.
[2.] A power system network with a thermal power plant is operating by four generating units.
Determine the most economical unit to be committed to a load demand of 10 MW. Prepare the
unit commitment table for the load changes in steps of 1 MW starting from minimum load to
maximum load. The minimum and maximum generating capacities and cost-curve parameters
of units listed in a tabular form are given in the following table.
[3.] A thermal station and a hydro-station supply an area jointly. The hydro-station is run 12 hr
daily and the thermal station is run throughout 24 hr. The incremental fuel cost characteristic
of the thermal plant is
2
𝐶𝑇 = 3 + 5𝑃𝐺𝑇 + 0.02 𝑃𝐺𝑇 , 𝑅𝑠/ℎ𝑟
If the load on the thermal station, when both plants are in operation, is 250 MW, the incremental
water rate of the hydro-power plant is
dw/d𝑃𝐺𝐻 = 24 + 0.04 𝑃𝐺𝐻 m3 MW-s.
The total quantity of water utilized during the 12-hr operation of a hydro-plant is 450 million
m3. Find the generation of the hydro-plant and the cost of water used. Assume that the total
load on the hydro-plant is constant for the 12-hr period.
