Y Assume suitable data if necessary.
in cost characteristics of the two generators are given by;
C,=20P, +0001,
C,=15Pg, +0.037,°
Solve the most economic load dispatch for the demand of S00 MW using 2-iteration method
with the initial guess of maximum and minimum A as 30 and 20 respectively. (32)
2, explain how the economical load dispatch problem could be modified such that generator which
7 isresponsile for more losses contribute less power than without considering loses, (8)
<3 mustty that Nuclear power plants end Hytto power plants donot participate in unit
commitment, also expiain the importance of starting and shutdown costs in a unit commitment
problem, Write down the complete expression for unit commitment objective function including
start up and shutdown costs. (8)
_ sles consider a 3-bus hydro dominated power system network. Two generators are located at
bbus 4 and 3. Loads in all the three buses are as shown in Figure. Formulate optimal power flow
problem for the real power dispatch with an objective of minimum power loss in the network.
Carry out the following steps; 122]
a. Clearly mention control variables, state variables °,*9.,
and fixed variables + Bi, ;
Write down complete objective function — Ort
State the condition for optimum solution
d._ Define the structure of vector and /or.matrices

Ignore the inequality constraints,
Loss expression may not need to derive5. Fora two bus power system formulate the state estimation problem with measured variables as,
bus injected real and reactive powers and line flows. 3
6. For a load frequency control block diagram shown in figure below, A 50 Hz, power plant has
governor time constant of 0.1 sec, turbine time constant of 10 sec. and generator time constant
of 1 sec, The generator galn constant Kpr is 8. If the regulation coefficient is set to 0.1,
Determine the limiting value of proportional controller gain Kp such that frequency will come
back to the steady state after change in demand, (12)
