Özet:
In this study, a deterministic mathematical model of Anbarlı. Thermal Power Plant is developed from physcal laws. Resultant model is used to design the steady state regulator for 100.5 MW load level using linear optimal control theory. Although the resultant model is primarily designed for steady state control, it can be easily adapted for other Thermal Power Plant configurations and control studies. Computer simulations are carried out to investigate the dynamic behaviour of the controlled system under disturbances in generation. The simulation results indicate the feasibility of applying linear optimal control to a Thermal Power Plant based on minimization of a quadratic cost functional related to state yariables ana control inputs.
