Summary: In this article, an adaptive fractional sliding-mode control (AFSMC) method is proposed to solve the Mittag-Leffler synchronization (MLS) problem in a fractional-order permanent magnet synchronous generator (FOPMSG)-based wind turbine system. The AFSMC method incorporates a fractional-order term into the new law for reaching the sliding mode, improving the control signal chattering and reducing the time required for the system to reach the sliding-mode surface.

Summary: This paper investigates the control problem of ultra-supercritical once-through boiler (OTB) unit and proposes an accurate grey box multivariable coupled nonlinear model. The steam pressure, specific enthalpy, and active power are controlled by manipulating the fuel rate command, feedwater rate command, and throttle valve opening. The controller design takes into account operational parameter limitations and uncertainty sources. A nonlinear robust sliding mode controller is developed based on affine nonlinear control theory, and a linear H-infinity robust control is synthesized using MATLAB. The simulation results demonstrate that both designed controllers perform well in the presence of uncertainties and limitations, but the nonlinear controller has better performance. The deficiencies of a linear controller compared to the proposed robust controllers are also discussed.

Summary: This paper investigates the stability of hydro-turbine governing system (HTGS) with sloping ceiling tailrace tunnel (SCTT) and upstream surge tank (UST) considering nonlinear hydro-turbine characteristics (NHTCs). Firstly, a mathematical model based on a nonlinear seventh-order state equation is presented and verified by example analysis. Subsequently, the effect of HTGS parameters on the stability of the system is investigated through numerical simulation. Lastly, the coupling effect mechanism of SCTT and UST on stability under the effect of NHTCs is revealed by contrastive analysis. The results indicate that Ta, Kd, and Twt have a significant impact on the stability of HTGS, while F and Twy have a mild influence. The NHTCs are beneficial for stability under negative load disturbance but unfavorable under positive load disturbance. The coupling effect of SCTT and UST outperforms using SCTT or UST alone, and the introduction of SCTT improves stability and achieves smaller amplitude and lower frequency.

Summary: In this study, a fractional order mathematical model based on the romantic relationship of the Layla and Majnun is numerically simulated using the Levenberg-Marquardt backpropagation neural networks. Fractional order derivatives provide more realistic solutions compared to integer order derivatives of the mathematical model. The model, consisting of four categories based on a system of nonlinear equations, is solved using a stochastic scheme with testing, authorization, and training data. The accuracy of the designed stochastic solver is improved by reducing the absolute error value, and its reliability is proven through various numerical measures.

Summary: This paper investigates the stability and efficiency performance of a pumped hydro energy storage system (PHESS) under various flexibility scenarios. A nonlinear model is established to study its stability and efficiency characteristics, and six flexibility scenarios are extracted based on historical power output. The results show that increased load variation negatively affects stability, with steeper parameter responses in the first 10 seconds compared to the later 30 seconds. Efficiency analysis reveals that friction loss is the dominant loss type in transient processes, except for the FL condition.

Summary: Pump-turbines are significant in modern power systems as they ensure power system frequency stability and compensate for the intermittent nature of new energy sources. The study investigates the vortex characteristics and pressure fluctuation intensity of the pump-turbine model operating in pump mode using the Large Eddy Simulation (LES) method. Results indicate that the impeller's wake vortex greatly influences the pump-turbine's internal flow field, originating from the vortex structure near the blade's suction surface. The distribution of trailing edge shedding vortex and shock vortex around the tongue is closely related to the impeller's wake vortex. The research emphasizes the importance of improving the pump-turbine's vortex structure for safe and stable operation.
