Abstract

This paper demonstrates the design and analysis of automatic generation control using intelligent genetic algorithm tuned fuzzy based controller. A two area thermal power system simulated for four different scenarios considers a reheat steam turbine in each area with Generator rate constraints. The Integral Time Squared Error (ITSE) employed to get an objective function for the optimization of controller gains. The simulation results compared with the conventional Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller, Genetic Algorithm (GA) tuned PID controller and GA tuned Fuzzy PID controller. The proposed GA tuned Fuzzy based PID Controller can generate the best performance for peak overshoot, undershoot and settling time with step load disturbances. Robustness of the performance of the proposed controller provided with system parametric uncertainties.
