Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of automatic control, and in particular to a decoupling control method, device, equipment and storage medium for AGC and primary frequency modulation. Background Art
[0002] In power systems, thermal power units maintain grid frequency stability through two methods: automatic generation control (AGC) and primary frequency regulation. AGC adjusts unit output based on grid dispatch instructions to ensure system frequency and tie-line power stability. Primary frequency regulation involves the unit control system automatically adjusting active power when the grid frequency deviates from the rated value, quickly responding to frequency changes and suppressing frequency fluctuations. For thermal power units, primary frequency regulation is typically implemented by a primary frequency regulation feedforward control loop on the dehumidifier (DEH) side and a primary frequency regulation feedback control loop on the CCS side. The DEH feedforward control loop rapidly adjusts the turbine throttle opening to respond quickly to grid frequency deviations, with minimal delay, ensuring rapid load response. The CCS feedback loop provides precise regulation to compensate for the shortcomings of feedforward control.
[0003] However, for smaller power grids, frequency fluctuations are large, and frequency stability varies significantly. In this situation, thermal power units frequently engage in primary frequency regulation, leading to an increasing number of simultaneous AGC load commands and primary frequency regulation, leading to increasingly severe coupling issues between the two. Traditional methods typically block AGC load commands when primary and AGC frequency regulation directions conflict, prioritizing primary frequency regulation. Frequent blocking of AGC load commands significantly degrades AGC performance. Furthermore, the severe coupling between AGC and primary frequency regulation prevents effective performance assurance for both. According to the assessment requirements of the regional power grid's "Implementation Rules for Grid-Connected Operation Management," a unit's AGC and primary frequency regulation must be independently assessed based on their respective performance indicators. Therefore, when AGC and primary frequency regulation are heavily coupled, existing control strategies struggle to balance their performance, failing to meet grid assessment requirements and impacting the unit's overall performance and economic benefits. Properly addressing these issues has become a pressing issue for the industry. Summary of the Invention

[0051] Glossary:
[0052] AGC: Automatic generation control refers to the grid dispatching center issuing unit load instructions, and the generator set adjusting the power generation output in real time according to the load instructions to meet the power system frequency and tie line power control requirements.
[0053] Primary frequency regulation: The primary frequency regulation of a generator set refers to the automatic control process in which the control system of the set automatically controls the increase or decrease of the active power of the set when the frequency of the grid deviates from the rated value, limits the change of the grid frequency, and maintains a stable grid frequency.
[0054] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a decoupling control method for AGC and primary frequency modulation, and the decoupling control method for AGC and primary frequency modulation includes:
[0055] In step S11, when the frequency value of the power grid deviates from the preset rated value, a frequency adjustment is performed without blocking the AGC load instruction;
[0056] In step S12, adjusting the response amplitude of the primary frequency modulation according to the frequency modulation direction of the primary frequency modulation and the AGC load instruction;
[0057] In step S13, the frequency value of the power grid is adjusted using the primary frequency modulation after the response amplitude is adjusted.
[0058] In one embodiment, grid frequency stability is crucial for the reliable operation of modern power systems. Frequency stability is directly related to the normal operation of power equipment and can effectively prevent equipment damage and system failures. Maintaining the grid frequency within a narrow range not only ensures stable equipment operation but also safeguards the overall security of the interconnected power grid, avoiding cascading failures and large-scale power outages. Automatic Generation Control (AGC) and primary frequency regulation are two key mechanisms for achieving and maintaining this stability, especially in thermal power generation units, which occupy a vital position in the power system. Due to their large capacity and sophisticated control systems, thermal power generation units play a vital role in both primary and secondary frequency control of the power grid. Understanding the individual and combined responses of these units is crucial to ensuring the overall stability of the power grid. A novel decoupled control method that addresses the interaction between AGC and primary frequency regulation in thermal power generation units can resolve potential conflicts and improve overall frequency control performance.
[0059] The core working principle of AGC is to automatically adjust the active power output of the generator in response to control signals from the central energy management system (EMS) to maintain the balance between power generation and load. AGC operates in a closed-loop manner, continuously monitoring system conditions and adjusting the output of the generator to minimize deviations from the desired state. The EMS monitors the system frequency and tie-line power flow, calculates the area control error (ACE), and sends signals to the participating generators to increase or decrease their output to restore the ACE to zero. The control cycle of AGC is typically in the range of a few seconds. Depending on the size of the ACE deviation, AGC has different operating modes, such as normal response, auxiliary response, and emergency response. AGC is designed to maintain an acceptable frequency during normal operation and provide early response to system contingencies such as the unexpected loss of generators or transmission lines.
[0060] AGC plays a major role in regulating the frequency of the grid and balancing the supply and demand of electricity on a wider time scale than primary frequency regulation (typically seconds to minutes). While primary frequency regulation provides an immediate response to frequency deviations, the role of AGC is to restore the frequency to its nominal value and maintain the tie-line power flow at the planned level, thereby correcting the steady-state error left by primary frequency regulation. The response time of AGC is a few seconds to keep the system frequency stable. AGC not only serves a stability function, but also plays a role in the economic operation of the power system by selecting the most cost-effective generation units to meet the load demand while maintaining the frequency and tie-line schedule. AGC systems typically contain an economic dispatch algorithm that determines the optimal power output of each participating generator based on its cost characteristics, aiming to minimize the total generation cost while meeting the control objectives.
[0061] The basic operating principle of primary frequency regulation typically relies on the turbine governor's automatic and rapid response to system frequency changes. When a load-generation imbalance occurs, the system frequency changes, and the governors of the individual generators automatically adjust the mechanical power supplied to the turbines (for example, by controlling steam flow in a thermal power plant) to offset this change. The goal of turbine governor control (TGC) is to maintain the desired system frequency. Typical triggering conditions for primary frequency regulation emphasize a "regulatory deadband." Primary frequency regulation typically activates only when the frequency deviation exceeds a preset threshold (deadband) from the nominal value. This deadband prevents the system from making frequent adjustments to minor, normal frequency fluctuations, thereby contributing to system stability and reducing wear on generating equipment. A small deadband ensures that the system responds only to significant frequency deviations requiring corrective action, avoiding continuous adjustments to minor transient fluctuations. The purpose of the deadband is to allow the frequency to remain stable near the nominal value without requiring continuous adjustments to minor fluctuations.
[0062] The regulation rate defines the relationship between frequency changes and corresponding changes in generator power output. Regulation rate control enables the generator to proportionally share the responsibility for responding to frequency deviations, thereby facilitating a stable and coordinated initial response. The regulation characteristic can be asymmetric for over- and under-frequency responses. The steady-state frequency-power relationship of a turbine governor includes a regulation constant that quantifies the generator's sensitivity to frequency changes. Primary frequency regulation prevents frequency drops or rises and provides the necessary time for slower subsequent control measures to take effect. Without effective primary frequency regulation, frequency can deviate rapidly and significantly after a disturbance, potentially leading to load shedding or even system collapse. The rapid response of primary frequency regulation driven by the generator governor is crucial to quickly offset the initial imbalance between generation and load, thereby limiting the rate of change of frequency (ROCOF) and preventing it from reaching critical levels. It provides initial stabilization within seconds to minutes, after which the slower AGC takes over to restore the frequency to its nominal value. Insufficient primary frequency regulation can lead to large frequency deviations.
[0063] In traditional control systems, both AGC and primary frequency regulation respond to frequency deviations, but AGC operates on a slower timescale, aiming to restore the frequency to its nominal value, while primary frequency regulation provides an immediate but often temporary response. Primary frequency regulation reacts to frequency deviations autonomously and locally based on the governor's differential regulation characteristics. AGC, on the other hand, is a centralized control system that monitors the area control error (ACE), which includes frequency deviation and tieline power flow deviations from planned values, and issues commands to generators to adjust their output to reduce the ACE to zero over a longer period of time and restore the system frequency to its nominal value. This difference in response time and control objectives can result in one system potentially counteracting the actions of the other. In conventional control strategies, the interaction between AGC and primary frequency regulation can lead to mutual interference, "shimmy" behavior (oscillations), or conflicting control actions. While the AGC aims to optimize economic dispatch or maintain the tieline schedule, the load commands it sends to generators can counteract the governor's output adjustments in response to frequency deviations, creating a critical conflict. For example, if the primary frequency regulator increases generator output to correct underfrequency, while the AGC simultaneously commands output reduction because the ACE indicates excess generation in that area, this results in a "control action conflict." This can cause system frequency oscillations and reduce the effectiveness of the primary response. To "free up" the governor, the AGC is disabled outside the deadband, negating the AGC's ability to correct frequency.
[0064] The increasing complexity of modern power grids, driven by the growing penetration of variable renewable energy, necessitates more advanced control strategies to ensure seamless coordination between AGC and primary frequency regulation. The intermittent and unpredictable nature of renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, leads to more frequent and larger deviations in system frequency. Traditional AGC and primary frequency regulation schemes can struggle to effectively handle these rapid fluctuations, potentially leading to increased stress on regulation units and reduced grid stability. In these situations, improved coordination and faster response times become crucial.
[0065] Decoupling control eliminates or minimizes interactions between different control loops in a multivariable system, so that changes in one controlled variable are primarily influenced by its corresponding manipulated variable, with minimal impact on other controlled variables. Decoupling simplifies the control design and operation of complex systems by treating interacting loops as independent or reducing their dependencies. In multivariable systems where multiple inputs influence multiple outputs, interactions between control loops can make it difficult to achieve desired control performance. Decoupling control uses techniques such as feedforward compensation or specialized controller design to counteract these interactions, allowing each control loop to be designed and tuned more independently, ultimately improving stability and performance. The goal of decoupling control is to eliminate complex loop interactions. Decoupling control strategies are often applied to systems with multiple interacting control loops, highlighting the advantages of minimizing interference and achieving more precise and independent control of different process variables. Decoupling control is particularly valuable in complex industrial processes that require simultaneous and independent control of multiple variables, such as chemical reactors, distillation columns, aircraft controls, and power plants. In these applications, manipulating a single input variable often affects multiple output variables, making it difficult to achieve precise control of each output individually. Decoupling control strategies aim to address this issue by designing controllers that compensate for these interactions, ensuring that each manipulated variable primarily affects its intended controlled variable, thereby improving product quality, increasing efficiency, and enhancing safety.
[0066] Applying decoupling control to the specific interactions between AGC and primary frequency regulation in thermal power generation units enables each mechanism to effectively perform its intended function without being negatively impacted or offset by the other, thereby improving overall grid frequency control. By designing a control system in which the actions of primary frequency regulation, which require rapid response to immediate frequency deviations, are less influenced by the slower, more economically oriented AGC instructions, the system can achieve a more robust and optimized response to frequency disturbances and load variations. Decoupling ensures that frequency stability takes priority in the short term while allowing the AGC to manage longer-term balance and economic objectives without interference, ultimately achieving a more stable and reliable grid.
[0067] Conventional approaches might lock the AGC instructions or disable load control to prevent a conflict with the rapid response of the primary frequency modulation. The technical solution in this embodiment proposes a method that allows both to operate simultaneously, allowing the AGC to continue frequency and ACE correction even when the primary frequency modulation response is active. The amplitude of the context-aware primary frequency modulation response is determined not only by the frequency deviation, but also by the goal the AGC is trying to achieve. By modifying the amplitude of the primary frequency modulation response, the rapid response of the primary frequency modulation can handle the initial frequency imbalance while being regulated by the long-term goals of the AGC.
[0068] A feedforward control loop might predict frequency deviations based on AGC commands or other system conditions, enabling a faster initial response from the primary controller. Using the AGC load command as a predictor of future frequency deviations, the feedforward loop can instruct the primary controller to adjust generator output. A feedback control loop might use the actual frequency deviation to provide more accurate and continuous adjustments, ensuring the frequency returns to the desired value. The feedback loop continuously monitors the system frequency and compares it to the nominal value. The error signal is then used to adjust the primary controller's output, ensuring any remaining deviation is corrected and the frequency is restored to the setpoint. Enhanced frequency regulation is achieved through the speed of feedforward and the precision of feedback. Feedforward control handles predictable disturbances and improves initial response, while feedback control compensates for modeling errors and unforeseen disturbances, resulting in better frequency control.
[0069] A regulation deadband is a predefined range around the nominal grid frequency within which the primary frequency regulation system will not initiate any control actions. This deadband prevents the system from making frequent adjustments to minor, normal frequency fluctuations, helping to reduce unnecessary wear on equipment. Small variations in load and generation are inherent to power systems. The deadband filters out these minor deviations, ensuring that the primary frequency regulation system only responds to significant frequency deviations that indicate a true imbalance. The primary frequency regulation system is triggered only when the frequency deviation exceeds the boundaries of this deadband, ensuring that the response is only to meaningful frequency disturbances. By setting an appropriate deadband, the system can avoid overregulation and ensure that the primary frequency regulation system responds to significant frequency deviations that threaten grid stability. The deadband also helps prevent oscillations or repeated activation-deactivation cycles in the control system.
[0070] When primary frequency regulation is activated, the AGC load command remains unchanged. Primary frequency regulation proceeds directly, adjusting the unit load to adjust the grid frequency. If the AGC does not issue a new load command, primary frequency regulation will operate autonomously based solely on the detected frequency deviation to restore the balance between generation and load.
[0071] When the primary frequency modulation is activated, the frequency modulation direction of the primary frequency modulation and the AGC load command are in the same direction. If both mechanisms attempt to adjust the frequency in the same direction, the primary response will be weakened to avoid overshoot or unnecessary large changes. If both the AGC and the primary frequency modulation require increased power generation (for example, during an underfrequency event), the primary response may be reduced to allow the AGC to make finer adjustments over a period of time and prevent the primary frequency modulation from generating an excessive initial response. The feedforward gain of the primary frequency modulation is corrected, and the first correction coefficient is shown in the following formula:
[0072] K1=1-Q a / Q b
[0073] Among them, K1 is the first correction coefficient, Qa It is the real-time calculation of the change of AGC load instruction after rate limitation during a frequency modulation action (i.e. the load variation amplitude of AGC load instruction). b The load change calculated based on the frequency difference is stored in the maximum value during a frequency modulation operation. Subtract this Q from 1. a / Q b This will cause K1 to be less than 1, thereby reducing the feedforward gain of the primary frequency modulation and preventing an overly aggressive response when the two control directions are consistent.
[0074] The feedback value of the primary frequency modulation is adjusted, and the first adjustment range is shown in the following formula:
[0075] △Q1=Q b -Q a / 2
[0076] Among them, △Q1 is the first adjustment range, and the above adjustment is used to avoid the primary frequency modulation response performance from exceeding the standard. When the primary frequency modulation and the AGC frequency modulation directions are the same, a part of the AGC expected load change is subtracted from the expected load change of the primary frequency modulation (Q a / 2) will reduce the feedback adjustment, weaken the response of the primary frequency modulation, and ensure a smoother and more coordinated adjustment.
[0077] By adjusting the feedforward gain and feedback value when the primary frequency modulation and the AGC frequency modulation are in the same direction, a balanced response can be achieved so that both the AGC and the primary frequency modulation can contribute effectively.
[0078] When the primary frequency regulation is activated, the primary frequency regulation and the AGC load command's frequency regulation directions are opposite. The primary frequency regulation's response is enhanced by the magnitude of the change in the AGC load command. The two mechanisms act in opposite directions, thus enhancing the primary response to prioritize immediate frequency correction. If the primary frequency regulation requires increased generation due to underfrequency, but the AGC simultaneously seeks to reduce generation for economic reasons or tie-line regulation, the primary response may be enhanced to ensure frequency stability as the highest priority.
[0079] The feedforward gain of the primary frequency modulation is corrected, and the second correction coefficient is shown in the following formula:
[0080] K2=1+Q a / Q b
[0081] Among them, K2 is the second correction coefficient, Q a It is the real-time calculation of the change of AGC load instruction after rate limitation during a frequency modulation action (i.e. the load variation amplitude of AGC load instruction). bThe load change calculated based on the frequency difference is recorded in the maximum value during a frequency modulation operation. a / Q b It will cause K2 to be greater than 1, thereby enhancing the feedforward gain of the primary frequency modulation and preventing the effect of the primary frequency modulation from being enhanced when the two control directions are opposite.
[0082] The feedback value of the primary frequency modulation is adjusted, and the second adjustment range is shown in the following formula:
[0083] △Q2=Q b +Q a / 2
[0084] Among them, △Q2 is the second adjustment range, which is used to compensate for the insufficient response performance of the primary frequency modulation. When the primary frequency modulation and the AGC frequency modulation directions are opposite, a part of the expected load change of the AGC is added to the expected load change of the primary frequency modulation (Q a / 2) will enhance the feedback adjustment and strengthen the response of the primary frequency modulation, thereby ensuring the effectiveness of the primary frequency modulation.
[0085] According to the regional power grid's assessment requirements, the assessment duration of a primary frequency modulation action is the first minute after the frequency modulation action begins. To prevent prolonged primary frequency modulation from adversely affecting the AGC's regulation performance, if a primary frequency modulation action lasts for more than one minute, the primary frequency modulation's feedforward and feedback functions should be removed, switching the unit from responding simultaneously to AGC and primary frequency modulation to responding only to AGC load regulation. The technical solution in this embodiment is applicable to all thermal power units, especially those in power grids with frequent frequency fluctuations.
[0086] Taking a supercritical coal-fired power generation unit as an example, the primary frequency modulation control function is realized by a feedforward control loop and a feedback control loop. When the unit triggers the primary frequency modulation action during stable operation, the primary frequency modulation instruction is calculated by the primary frequency modulation function corresponding to the turbine speed. This instruction directly acts on the feedback control loop to achieve closed-loop load regulation. At the same time, the primary frequency modulation instruction is converted by the K1 link and superimposed on the turbine control instruction to quickly change the unit load, thereby realizing the feedforward control of the primary frequency modulation. The principle of primary frequency modulation control is shown in the attached figure. Figure 2 shown.
[0087] When the primary frequency modulation and AGC are in the same direction, for example, during the process of AGC increasing the load, if the primary frequency modulation increases the load due to low frequency, or during the process of AGC reducing the load, if the primary frequency modulation reduces the load due to high frequency, the change of the AGC load instruction will not be locked. At the same time, the AGC load instruction change after rate limitation is calculated in real time and defined as the AGC load instruction change. At this time, the control principle of the primary frequency modulation is as shown in the attached figure. Figure 3As shown. Calculate the primary frequency modulation instruction based on the speed deviation, and record the maximum value of the primary frequency modulation instruction during the primary frequency modulation action. Adjust the response amplitude of the primary frequency modulation in real time based on the change in the AGC load instruction and the primary frequency modulation instruction. Correct the feedforward gain of the primary frequency modulation, and the first correction coefficient is shown in the following formula:
[0088] K1=1-Q a / Q b
[0089] Among them, K qk is the first correction coefficient, Q a It is the real-time calculation of the change of AGC load instruction after rate limitation during a frequency modulation action (i.e. the load variation amplitude of AGC load instruction). b The load variation is calculated based on the frequency difference and the maximum value is memorized during one frequency modulation operation;
[0090] The feedback value of the primary frequency modulation is adjusted, and the first adjustment range is shown in the following formula:
[0091] △Q1=Q b -Q a / 2
[0092] Among them, △Q1 is the first adjustment amplitude, and the above adjustment is performed to avoid the primary frequency modulation response performance exceeding the standard.
[0093] When the primary frequency regulation and AGC (automatic generation control) work in opposite directions, for example, during the process of AGC increasing the load, the high frequency triggers the primary frequency regulation to reduce the load, or during the process of AGC reducing the load, the low frequency triggers the primary frequency regulation to increase the load. The change of AGC load instruction will not be locked, allowing it to adjust normally. The calculated load deviation will be sent directly to the steam turbine master control to coordinate the operation of the generator set. According to the variable load amplitude and the primary frequency regulation instruction, the regulating effect of the primary frequency regulation is corrected in real time to ensure the stability of the system frequency. At this time, the control principle of the primary frequency regulation is as shown in the attached figure. Figure 4 The feedforward gain of the primary frequency modulation is corrected, and the second correction coefficient is shown in the following formula:
[0094] K2=1+Q a / Q b
[0095] Among them, K2 is the second correction coefficient, Q a It is the real-time calculation of the change of AGC load instruction after rate limitation during a frequency modulation action (i.e. the load variation amplitude of AGC load instruction). b The load variation is calculated based on the frequency difference and the maximum value is memorized during one frequency modulation operation;
[0096] The feedback value of the primary frequency modulation is adjusted, and the second adjustment range is shown in the following formula:
[0097] △Q2=Q b +Q a / 2
