Abstract

In this work a proposal of following the point of operation of hydraulic micro-turbines in autonomous operation regime is presented.It is sought to adjust the operation point automatically to which imposes the demand by means of the combined control of load and flow. Simulation results are presented in Matlab®/Simulink with models obtained through analytic and proven with methods of experimental identification. Lastly, the results of simulation are presented of combining both methods, some performance considerations, limitations and future works.
