1. Background
Voltage level at operational range is an example of good quality of voltage. But load
changing makes deviation of voltage. If voltage deviation exceeds operational range, then the
quality of voltage is bad. Kinds of voltage deviation can be short-duration overvoltage and
undervoltage. Short-duration overvoltage occurs when power system loses load and can cause
failure of auxiliary plant equipment. These failures may leads to steam turbine generator
shutdown. So, it is a must to maintain voltage level in acceptable range.
2. Objective
The objective of this project is to improving voltage quality in power system in order to
reduce failure of auxiliary plant equipment by arranging suitable configuration of diesel
generators usage.
3. Problem Identification
Failure of shiploading system cause short-duration overvoltage exceeds its operational
work. This failure is an uncontrollable situation for power supplier. Short-duration overvoltage
leads to failure of auxiliary plant equipment. Failure of auxiliary plant equipment concerns with
reliability of our power system. So our task is how to keep short-duration overvoltage in
operational range.

Table 1 Improvement Plan
Adding diesel generator in normal operation is applied in power system. The cost
depends on how many diesel generator we want to operate together with steam
3
turbine generator. To get optimum usage of diesel generator, we determine overvoltage
level and simulations for every configuration of steam turbine generator combine with
diesel generators.

Comparison between different operation configurations:
Based on calculations and simulations for load changing response, we add 2 Diesel
Generators in power system for normal operation to improve voltage quality when
facing failure of shiploading system.
There are 5 steps to operate diesel generators in power system. The procedures are
instruction (to diesel generator operator), receiving info (by diesel generator operator),
execution, monitoring load condition, and controlling load distribution.
