MODELLING AND SIMULATION OF THE BEHAVIOUR OF THE HYDRAULIC TURBINE

In this paper, a hydraulic turbine unit transfer function is represented, considering acceleration of the water column, velocity of the water and mechanical power. Using Matlab/Simulink software facilities, have been simulated the behaviour of the mechanical power, depending of the gate opening, with water starting time parameter affected by uncertainties. Step responses analyse are simulated in order to evaluate the performances with load affected by uncertainties and with different control algorithms. This paper can be used in power engineering and control systems fields as a guideline in order to modelling, simulate, analyse and tune the controller for hydraulic turbine unit
