Abstract: One of the basic engineering problems of the automatic control systems synthesis for steam turbines is
systems quality indices optimization task. The features of such task are defined by plenty of control systems
structural parameters, complication of quality indices formalization and calculation, the systems models high
order. The greatest difficulty of the control system synthesis is optimization models and methods design. The
paper purpose is to develop models and methods for optimum design of the intelligent automatic control systems
of atomic power station steam turbine using genetic algorithms. The steam turbine automatic control system is
applied to stabilize turbine rotor frequency with high precision. The intelligent steam turbine control system
includes a steam turbine, frequency sensor, intelligent frequency regulator, electro-hydraulic automatic drive and
turbine adjusting valve. Input signals on an automatic drive can be given by the steam pressure regulator through
the turbine management mechanism or by the electric power regulator. Assumptions substantiated to model the
automatic control system and automatic drive as executive link of control system. The automatic drive diagram of
principle includes electro-hydraulic transformer, sleeve valve, servomotor, position sensors and electronic part. In
the paper were built the mathematical models of automatic drive and steam turbine, the models permanent
parameters values were calculated, the mathematical models of the automatic control system were developed in
state space with the intelligent frequency regulator, the regulator parameters were optimized with system quality
indices using genetic algorithms.
