Direct Parameter Identification Method for Steam Turbine and Its Governing System

Since most of the traditional parameter identification methods used in the steam turbine and its governing system have the shortages of poor fitness, complicated identification process and long period, a novel identification method based on least square theory, called direct identification method, is proposed in this paper. Parameter to be identified can be obtained quickly and accurately through direct identification method if the identification process is transferred to solve nonlinear equation which represents the minimal error between simulated data and measured data. The identification results show that during identification process the proposed method has high identification efficiency, accurate identification results and robust identification process compared with the traditional parameter identification method. The proposed identification method brings a novel way for steam turbine speed governor system identification.
