Abstract

The advantages of adjustable speed hydroelectric generation have been highlighted by several authors. The optimum speed for actual working conditions must be continuously implemented by means of an appropriate control system. This process gives rise to dynamic changes in operation variables. In this paper a speed control of run-of-river adjustable speed hydro plant is presented.
