Multiple input governor control for a diesel generating set / McGowan, D.J. in IEEE transactions on energy conversion, Vol. 23 n°3 (Septembre 2008) 

Public ISBD [article]  in IEEE transactions on energy conversion > Vol. 23 n°3 (Septembre 2008) . - pp. 851 - 859 Titre : Multiple input governor control for a diesel generating set Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : McGowan, D.J., Auteur ; Morrow, D.John, Auteur ; Fox, B., Auteur Année de publication : 2008 Article en page(s) : pp. 851 - 859 Note générale : Energy conversion Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Diesel  engines;  fault  diagnosis;  fuzzy  control;  fuzzy  logic;  power  factor;  power  generation  control Résumé : The paper presents a multiple-input single-output fuzzy logic governor algorithm that can be used to improve the transient response of a diesel generating set, when supplying an islanded load. The proposed governor uses the traditional speed input in addition to voltage and power factor to modify the fueling requirements during various load disturbances. The use of fuzzy logic control allows the use of proportional-integral-derivative (PID) type structures that can provide variable gain strategies to account for nonlinearities in the system. Fuzzy logic also provides a means of processing other input information by linguistic reasoning and a logical control output to aid the governor action during transient disturbance. The test results were obtained using a 50 kVA naturally aspirated diesel generator testing facility. Both real and reactive load tests were conducted. The complex load test results demonstrate that, by using additional inputs to the governor algorithm, enhanced generator transient speed recovery response can be obtained.
