Abstract
Abstract:A Tuning Model Reference Adaptive Controller (TMRAC) for a synchronous generator is presented in this paper. The controller performs the function of terminal voltage of the machine. The proposed controller is used to overcome the problems of nonlinearities and parametric uncertainties for Synchronous Generator (SG). The results verify improved performance of TMRAC compared to conventional Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) under various operating conditions.
