HILS(Hardware In-the Loop Simulation) is commonly used in the development and testing of embedded systems, when those systems cannot be tested easily, thoroughly, and repeated in their operational environments. HILS can be a useful tool to develop products more quickly and cost effectively and also reduces the possibility of serious defects being discovered after production. During the product development period, Design optimization and hardware/software debugging can be performed using HILS skill. This paper describes a HILS model for the STG(Steam-Turbine Generator) Simulator to prove the performance of the developed Digital Governor. It is developed using software technics which can confirm the responses of a real-time system.

A new robust load-frequency control methodology is proposed for nonlinear power systems with valve position limits of the governor in the presence of parametric uncertaines. The TSK fuzzy model is adopted and formulated for fuzzy modeling of the nonlinear power system. A sufficient condition of the robust stabilitry is presented in the sense of lyapunov for the TSK model with parametric uncertainties. The intekkigent digital redesign technique for the uncertain power systems is also studied. The effectiveness of the robust digital fuzzy controller disign mothod is demonstrated through a numerical simulation.

This thesis aims at developing of a digita governor system for the steam turbine generator on the Buk-Cheju Thermal Power Plant of KEPCO. The steam turbine generator of the Buk-Cheju Thermal Power Plant is modelled. As a hardware platform, a triple modular system which is fitted 32-bit microprocessor of Motorola company to perform the digital governor system is used. The parameters of the PID controller algorithm in the speed control block is tuned on the basis of the estimated model.

The existing digital governors are in the beginning stage. Placing the focus on the marine site, most of the digital governors developed are still using the simple PID algorithm. But, the performance of a diesel engine is widely changed according to the parameters of the PID controller. So, this article describes a new method to adjust the parameters of the PID controller in a marine digital governor. In this paper, the diesel engine is considered as a nonoscillatory second order system. A new method to adjust the parameters of the PID controller for speed control of a diesel engine is proposed by means of the model matching method. Also, the simulations by numerical methods are carried out in cases of the exact understanding or out of the parameters of a diesel engine respectively. And this paper confirms that the proposed new method here is superior to Ziegler & Nichols's method through the comparisons and analysis of the characteristics of indicial responses.

The interest in wind power generation area such as developing and operating wind-diesel pilot complex in remote and island regions that have difficulty in having power plant and connecting to power system is growing rapidly in the world. We have installed and researched the hybrid system in Sekgok Pilot Complex to meet the new generation system. From the monitored data of the system, the performance of each diesel power plant is outstanding. However, step out problem was detected with respect to load sharing and synchronization with decentralized power supply. An advanced controller design having better response time and stability is needed to solve such problem. In this paper, we proposed the algorithm, through digital controller of Governor, which is applied to hybrid system. As a result, we obtained the stable frequency value in variable loading conditions. Also, we proved the advanced response time and stability through the simulation and experiment by applying additional current signal to the control algorithm.

Recently, for the speed control of a diesel engine, some methods using the modern control theory such as LQ control technique, or $\textit{H}_{\infty}$control theory etc., have been reported. However, most of speed controlers of a diesel engine ever developed are still using the PID control algorithm. And, as another approach to the speed control of a diesel engine, the authors proposed already a new method to adjust the parameters of the PID controller by a model matching method. In the previous paper, the authors confirmed that the proposed new method is superior to Ziegler & Nichols's method through the analysis of results of the digital simulations under the assumption that the parameters of a diesel engine are known exactly. But, actually, it is very difficult to find out the value of parameters of a diesel engine accurately. And the parameters of a diesel engine are changigng according to the operating condition of a diesel engine. So, in this paper, a method to estimate the parameters of the PID controller for the speed control of a diesel engine by means of the model matching method are proposed. Also, the digital simulations are carried out in cases either with or without measurement noise. And this paper confirms that the proposed method here is superior to Ziegler & Nichols's method through the analysis of the characteristics of indicial responses.

Full authority digital engine control systems for gas turbine engines are replacing conventional mechanical control units rapidly. However, setting up design processes of controllers for high performance helicopter engines are not well known because of the complexity of the total system. This paper presents a high fidelity helicopter and engine simulation for control system design and analysis. Using this environment, a feedforward schedule was set up for a utility helicopter. The total engine simulation with the new controller showed better or equal performance compared to the total engine simulation with the pre-existing controller.
