Abstract: In this disclosure, the energy management problem of the D-IEGS with FFR is analyzed, so as to enhance the frequency stability of the main grid. The post-disturbance frequency response behaviors of both the main grid and the D-IEGS are precisely depicted, where the dead zones, limiting ranges and time constant of the governors are considered. The frequency regulation units of the D-IEGS include GTs and P2G units, whose impacts of providing frequency regulation service on the gas networks are quantified. Considering the time-scale similarity of the frequency dynamics and the dynamics of the GDN, the gas flow dynamics model is adopted. The frequency response dynamics of the GTs and P2G units, and the gas flow dynamics of the GDN, a variable-step difference scheme and a binary variable reduction method are devised.

Abstract: A policy map is obtained that includes a first set of machine settings values for controlling a machine to perform an operation at a site, at different locations in the field. An adjustment component receives sensor signals indicating conditions that will be encountered by the machine in the future, as it moves through the site. A cost determination component determines whether an adjustment is to be made to the first set of settings values, based upon the sensor signals. A predictive vehicle model provides an expected vehicle response, based upon the adjusted settings values that are selected. Control signals are generated based upon adjusted setting values that are generated from the policy map, the expected vehicle response, and the future condition sensor signals. The control signal generator generates the control signals to control a set of controllable subsystems.
