Evaluation of Sliding mode control algorithms for load frequency control of a single area power system
Abstract
This study deals with the evaluation of load frequency control (LFC) by sliding mode controllers (SMC), which have two different structures. As the LFC is one of the significant problems of power systems, there have been many solutions proposed for this problem, especially based on the well-known PID controller. The SMC is an effective alternative that has been focused on for power systems. Therefore, two recently popular SMC algorithms are evaluated for the LFC of a single-area power system. One algorithm is model-based, first-order SMC, and the other one is a modelfree, second-order super-twisting SMC algorithm smoothed with a hyperbolic tangent function. Optimization of the controllers is performed with two metaheuristic algorithms, the Sine Cosine Optimization Algorithm (SCA), and the Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO). The controllers’ performance is evaluated for an applied 0.1pu load. Detailed results are given in tabulated form and graphically
