Generation Control Scheduling Model of Three Gorges Power Station during Non-Abandon Water Period

Abstract:

With types of power units, huge installed capacity and complicated operation modes, the Three Gorges Power Station (TGPS) is very important in network operation of Yangtze River area. Power forecasting of TGPS plays an important role in protecting the power network operation and shipping, especially for the short-term output forecasting. The water consumption rate of power station is one of the key conditions in short-term generation control system during non-abandon water period. Therefore, in order to develop the generation control scheduling model of TGPS in non-abandon water period, analysis on many factors should be put including: hydraulic turbine characteristic curves of cascade hydropower stations constructed by TGPS and the Gezhouba Power Station; discharge at dam site; water stage of relationship between upstream and downstream; and the last element is tailrace effect from the Gezhouba Power Station to TGPS. The historical operating result shows that the model referred has wide application prospect in production practice for high precision and much exercisable.
