Hydro Power Plant Governor Hydraulic System General Simulator

This system simulates the dam and penstock dynamics for testing the governor system by applying possible scenarios in hydropower plants, verifying all its functions and finalizing some control coefficients before installation in the site.

Moreover, the general simulator of hydraulic systems mode, provides a complete model of the hydraulic unit and check its long its long-term performance in different working conditions.

The simulator specifications are:

  – penstock modeling with band graph method.

  – investigating the effect of each parameters in penstock design.

  – system recognition

  – investigating the effects of other units on the studied unit

  – check turbine and generator model

  – couple the existing governor unit with the simulator and check its function
