Abstract

The intermittence of renewable energy sources increases the importance of the effective load-tracking ability of power plants. Coordinated control between boiler and turbine systems is the uppermost layer of a thermal power plant control to follow the load demand. In this paper, a supplementary controller is proposed based on the One-Step Ahead strategy for coordinated control of thermal power plants. After a plant model is developed offline from a step response test, the optimized control of the One-Step Ahead strategy is applied to the boiler feed-forward (BFF) signal to control the electric power output and the main steam pressure simultaneously. Simulation with a 1000 MW ultra-supercritical (USC) once-through type power plant is performed. The results show that the error of Mega-Watt Output ( MWO ) was reduced to 78~95%, and settling time was reduced to 64~79% from conventional coordinated control by adding the proposed supplementary controller.
