A method of, and an apparatus for, estimating frequency characteristics of a power system in accordance with the operation conditions of the power system. In the estimation of frequency characteristics, a sensitivity coefficient of power control of each generator with respect to a frequency deviation is defined as a frequency characteristic coefficient of the generator and this frequency characteristic coefficient of the generator is weighted in accordance with its rated output so as to determine a frequency characteristic coefficient of a generator group comprising a plurality of generators belonging to the power system. A frequency characteristic coefficient of a load determined separately is added to the frequency characteristic coefficient of the generator group, and estimated frequency characteristics for the supply-and-demand imbalance quantity of the power system are provided.
An injection-molded plastic part having a first thermoplastic component and a second thermoplastic component. Areas consisting of the first thermoplastic component are present at least on one surface of the injection-molded plastic part next to areas of the second thermoplastic component. The first thermoplastic component is an LCP and the second thermoplastic component is a syndiotactic polystyrene.
A voltage stabilization control method for controlling a voltage of a power system that is connected to an adjustable speed machine includes detecting an active power change of the power system; outputting a control signal indicative of the amount of adjustment when the adjustment of the active power of the adjustable speed machine is required on the basis of the active power change; and receiving a steady operation command value with respect to the adjustable speed machine, generating a stabilization control signal resulting from adding the control signal to the steady operation command value and outputting the stabilization control signal to the adjustable speed machine. The present invention also resides in a voltage stabilization control apparatus.
Methods and systems for operating combined cycle electrical generating plants is provided. The method includes simulating the electrical power plant performance, simulating the steam utilizing process plant performance, parameterizing plant equipment and plant performance using the power plant and process plant simulation results, and solving parameterized simultaneous equations and constraints with an objective function to determine parameter settings that facilitate enhancing an efficiency of the combined cycle electrical generating/steam-utilizing process plant.
A method of reactive power regulation in an electrical network in which electrical power is produced by an electrical generator preferably driven by the rotor of a wind power installation and suitably modulated by means of a compensation device between the generator and the network for the compensation of reactive power, and an apparatus for producing electrical energy in an electrical network, preferably an electrical generator driven by the rotor of a wind power installation and a compensation device between the generator and the network for the compensation of reactive power. The compensation device is so regulated that the electrical power delivered to the consumer has a reactive power component which is adapted in respect of its phase, amplitude and/or frequency to the consumer in such a way as to compensate for the reactive power in the consumer.
