This paper studies the problemof fixed-time stability of hydraulic turbine governing systemwith the elasticwater hammer nonlinearmodel To control and improve the quality of hydraulic turbine governing system a new fixed-time control strategy is proposedwhich can stabilize the water turbine governing system within a fixed time Compared with the finite-time control strategy wherethe convergence rate depends on the initial state the settling time of the fixed-time control scheme can be adjusted to the requiredvalue regardless of the initial conditions Finally we numerically show that the fixed-time control ismore effective than and superiorto the finite-time control
1 Introduction
Hydropower as a low-cost zero-polluting and renewableenergy source has been deeply developed since the twentiethcentury [1] With the reserves of coal natural gas andother nonrenewable energy sources decreasing graduallyand the serious environmental problems caused by powergeneration hydropower is becoming an increasingly largeproportion of the electricity structure According to thecurrent projections provided by international hydropowerindustries referring to the next thirty years a significantgrowth in the sector is expected [2] As a typical nonlinearcomplex system and an important part of hydraulic powergeneration system hydraulic turbine governing system is ahydraulic mechanical electrical integrated control system[3] The normal operation of the water turbine governingsystem is essential to the whole hydraulic power systemand it even affects the safe and stable operation of therelated power grid thus affecting the power quality and thepower consumption experience of the users In view of thehigh proportion of the hydropower system in the electricitystructure the research of the hydraulic turbine governingsystem is of great importance
At present the control method commonly used inwater turbine control system mainly includes the following
nonlinear control [4ndash7] sliding mode control [8ndash10] PIDcontrol [11ndash13] fuzzy control [14] fault tolerant control [15]predictive control [16 17] and finite-time control [18] Thesecontrol methods have important theoretical and practicalsignificance for the control of hydraulic turbine governingsystem but they also have their own defects For examplefeedback control has the time delay problem The nonlinearcontrol is targeted and each nonlinear control strategy is onlysuitable for solving some special nonlinear system controlproblems PID control is difficult to balance the stabilitytime and overshoot When the initial state of the systemdeviates from the equilibrium point it is difficult for thecontrol system to restore the system to the equilibrium pointfuzzy control is difficult to adapt to the requirements oflarge-scale adjustment and it needs to constantly adjust thecontrol rules and parameters The effect of fault tolerantcontrol is greatly influenced by the delay of fault detectionand separation and the long time delay will cause seriousstability problem Predictive controlrsquos accuracy is not veryhigh and the optimization process needs to be performedonline repeatedly in finite-time control the stability of thesystem is affected by the initial state of the system All theabove control strategies can ensure the exponential stabilityof the system while the adjustment time affected by theinitial state of the system is not always short enough The

fixed-time stability control not only ensures the exponentialstability and the shorter adjustment time but also has strongerrobustness and disturbance rejection ability than the abovecontrol strategies
The definition of the fixed-time stability was firstly pro-posed by Polyakov in [19] and this definition was evolvedfrom the definition of finite-time stability Finite-time controltheory has been widely used in Cucker-Smale systems [20]complex dynamic network systems [21] PMSM [22] delayneural networks systems [23] chaotic systems [24] and soforth Compared with the finite-time control the fixed-timecontrol has the characteristic that the maximum adjustmenttime is not affected by the initial conditions In view of manyadvantages of fixed-time control the control method hasbeen widely used in multiagent systems [25] aircraft systems[26] robot systems [27] neural network systems [28ndash31] andchaotic systems [32 33]
In [16] a six-dimensional nonlinear mathematical modelfor the elastic water hammer of hydraulic turbine governingsystem is presented Based on the six-dimensional nonlinearmathematical model this paper analyzes the system runningstate without controllers Comparing the operation statusof the system under the fixed-time control strategy and thefinite-time control strategy we find that the control strategyused in this paper can directly calculate the systemrsquos settlingtimeThe settling time is independent of the initial state of thesystem In conclusion whether the initial state of the systemchanges or not we can use the fixed-time control strategy tomake the system achieve stable state quickly

where the parameters 120572 and 120573 satisfy 0 lt 120572 lt 1 and 120573 gt 1 andthe parameters 1198961 and 1198962 are tuning parameters of the terminalattractor
Proof Here we use the two-step method of two steps toprove that the system is stable for the fixed time for thesixth subsystem of system (10) we put 119906119910 into the controlledsubsystem and we can have the following relationship

The Lyapunov function is constructed as follows
1198811 (119905) = 11991022 (13)
The derivative along the trajectory of the sixth subsystem in(10) can be obtained

4 Mathematical Problems in Engineering
According to Lemma 3 we know that the sixth subsystem inmodel (10) is stable in fixed time
1199051 = 1205871198791199101198961 (120573 minus 120572) sdot 2(120572+120573minus2)4 (16)
which means that the system state variable 119910 satisfies thefollowing relation 119910 = 0 when 119905 ge 1199051 And
1 = 11990922 = 11990933 = minus11988601199091 minus 11988611199092 minus 11988621199093120575 = 1205960120596 = 1119879119886119887 [(1198870 minus 11988601198873) 1199091 + (1198871 minus 11988611198873) 1199092+ (1198872 minus 11988621198873) 1199093 minus 119863120596 minus 119875119890] + 119906120596
(17)
To this end we select the following Lyapunov function
1198812 (119905) = 12059622 (18)
Thus
1198891198812 (119905)119889119905 = 120596119889120596119889119905 = 120596 [minus119863120596119879119886119887 minus 1198962sign (120596) |120596|120572

(19)
where
119898 = 1198962 sdot 2(120572+1)2119899 = 1198962 sdot 2(120573+1)2119901 = 120572 + 12 119902 = 120573 + 12
(20)
According to Lemma 3 we can show that the fourth and fifthsubsystems in model (10) are stable in fixed time
1199052 = 1205871198962 (120573 minus 120572) sdot 2(120572+120573minus2)4 (21)
whichmeans that when 119905 ge 1199052 then 120596 = 0 and 120575 = 0 In otherwords when 119905 ge 1199051 + 1199052 the value of 120575 tends to be stable
To sum up when 119905 ge 1199053 where 1199053 = 1199051 + 1199052 + Δ119905 and Δ119905 isthe time from 119910 = 0 to 119906120596 acting onmodel (10) the hydraulicturbine governing system (10) is stable under the controllers119906119910 and 119906120596 That is the system is stable in a fixed time and thetheorem is proved

In order to make a fair comparison between fixed-time control and finite-time control the parameters initialconditions and the tuning parameters of the terminal attrac-tor are the same in this paper Figures 4(a)ndash4(c) are thecomparison of response curves of system state variables 120575 120596and 119910 with fixed-time controllers and finite-time controllersrespectively From Figure 4 it is obvious that the settlingtime of system state variable 119910 under the action of fixed-timecontrollers is mostly equal to the settling time of system statevariable 119910 under the action of the finite-time controllers Thesystem state variables 120575 and 120596 achieve stable state at 2 s underthe action of fixed-time controllers simultaneously And thesystem state variables 120575 and 120596 achieve stable state at 207 sunder the action of finite-time controllers simultaneouslyThe fixed-time controllers stabilize the nonlinear systemfaster than finite-time controllers do Thus the fixed-timemethod has the better capacity to handle a nonlinear systemin a short time
To explore the relationship between the settling time andthe values of the parameters 120572 and 120573 experimentally we

are 120572 = 05 and 120573 = 11 13 15 17 19 In Figures 5 and 6the system parameters and other controller parameters andtuning parameters of the terminal attractor are consistentwith the previous sections The simulation results clearlyshow that changing the controller parameters 120572 and 120573 canchange the time of the system state variables 120575 and 120596 to reachthe steady state But the time of the system state variable 119910 toreach the steady state is almost the same And the smaller the120572 and 120573 value of the system are the faster the settling timewill be Moreover the influence of 120573 on the settling time ofthe system state variables 120575 and 120596 is less than the influenceof 120572 on the settling time of the system state variables 120575 and120596 The simulation results are consistent with the theoreticalanalysis of the maximum stable time 1199053 of the system in theprevious section Moreover the values of 120572 and 120573 also affectthe stability value of the system state variable 120575 That is to
say we can get the size of the system state variable 120575 to thenumerical value we need by controlling the size of 120572 and 120573
In order to explore the effect of the initial state ofhydropower system with fixed-time controllers we com-pared the response of three different initial conditionsof the hydropower system Figures 7(a)ndash7(c) show theresponse of the system state variables 120575 120596 and 119910 atdifferent initial conditions with the fixed-time controllers119906120596 and 119906119910 respectively From Figures 7(a)ndash7(c) it isclear that when the initial states of system are 1198781 =(008 008 008 008 008 008) 1198782 = (01 01 01 01 0101) and 1198783 = (012 012 012 012 012 012) and thesystem is coupled with 119906119910 at 03 s and 119906120596 at 075 s the systemstate variables 120575 are stable at 192 s 2 s and 222 s respectivelyThe system states variables 120596 are also stable at 192 s 2 s and222 s respectively The system state variables 119910 are all stable

4 Conclusions
In this paper to ensure the safe and stable operation ofhydraulic turbine governing system a new control methodbased on the fixed-time theory is proposed Comparedwith the finite-time control method the hydraulic turbinegoverning system under the fixed-time controllers has moreadvantages better robustness fast response ability and thesetting time to reach the stable state being regardless ofthe initial state Finally the effectiveness and superiority of
the proposed control method are verified by the simulationresults Note that time delay may influence the dynamicbehavior of the system the fixed-time control of hydraulicturbine governing system with time delay is our futuredirection

fixed-time stability control not only ensures the exponentialstability and the shorter adjustment time but also has strongerrobustness and disturbance rejection ability than the abovecontrol strategies
The definition of the fixed-time stability was firstly pro-posed by Polyakov in [19] and this definition was evolvedfrom the definition of finite-time stability Finite-time controltheory has been widely used in Cucker-Smale systems [20]complex dynamic network systems [21] PMSM [22] delayneural networks systems [23] chaotic systems [24] and soforth Compared with the finite-time control the fixed-timecontrol has the characteristic that the maximum adjustmenttime is not affected by the initial conditions In view of manyadvantages of fixed-time control the control method hasbeen widely used in multiagent systems [25] aircraft systems[26] robot systems [27] neural network systems [28ndash31] andchaotic systems [32 33]
In [16] a six-dimensional nonlinear mathematical modelfor the elastic water hammer of hydraulic turbine governingsystem is presented Based on the six-dimensional nonlinearmathematical model this paper analyzes the system runningstate without controllers Comparing the operation statusof the system under the fixed-time control strategy and thefinite-time control strategy we find that the control strategyused in this paper can directly calculate the systemrsquos settlingtimeThe settling time is independent of the initial state of thesystem In conclusion whether the initial state of the systemchanges or not we can use the fixed-time control strategy tomake the system achieve stable state quickly

Lemma 3 (see [19]) If there exists a continuous radicallyunbounded function 119881 119877119899 rarr 119877+ cup |0| such that
(1) 119881(119909) = 0 hArr 119909 = 0(2) any solution 119909(119905) satisfied the inequality 119863lowast119881(119909(119905)) leminus120572119881119901(119909(119905)) minus 120573119881119902(119909(119905)) for some 120572 120573 and 119901 = 1 minus12120574 119902 = 1 + 12120574 and 120574 gt 1 where 119863lowast119881(119909(119905))

From system (8) we can see that 119875(0 0 0 119898 0 0) is apoint of equilibrium of the system where 119898 is a constant Inorder to make the system fast and stable to the equilibriumpoint 119875 the fifth and sixth subsystems of model (8) are addedwith the controllers 119906120596 and 119906119910 and the controlled system isformed as follows

where the parameters 120572 and 120573 satisfy 0 lt 120572 lt 1 and 120573 gt 1 andthe parameters 1198961 and 1198962 are tuning parameters of the terminalattractor
Proof Here we use the two-step method of two steps toprove that the system is stable for the fixed time for thesixth subsystem of system (10) we put 119906119910 into the controlledsubsystem and we can have the following relationship
119889119910119889119905 = 1119879119910 (minus119910 minus 1198961sign (119910)10038161003816100381610038161199101003816100381610038161003816120572 minus 1198961sign (119910) 10038161003816100381610038161199101003816100381610038161003816120573) (12)
The Lyapunov function is constructed as follows
1198811 (119905) = 11991022 (13)
The derivative along the trajectory of the sixth subsystem in(10) can be obtained

4 Mathematical Problems in Engineering
According to Lemma 3 we know that the sixth subsystem inmodel (10) is stable in fixed time
1199051 = 1205871198791199101198961 (120573 minus 120572) sdot 2(120572+120573minus2)4 (16)
which means that the system state variable 119910 satisfies thefollowing relation 119910 = 0 when 119905 ge 1199051 And
1 = 11990922 = 11990933 = minus11988601199091 minus 11988611199092 minus 11988621199093120575 = 1205960120596 = 1119879119886119887 [(1198870 minus 11988601198873) 1199091 + (1198871 minus 11988611198873) 1199092+ (1198872 minus 11988621198873) 1199093 minus 119863120596 minus 119875119890] + 119906120596
(17)
To this end we select the following Lyapunov function
1198812 (119905) = 12059622 (18)
Thus
1198891198812 (119905)119889119905 = 120596119889120596119889119905 = 120596 [minus119863120596119879119886119887 minus 1198962sign (120596) |120596|120572

where
119898 = 1198962 sdot 2(120572+1)2119899 = 1198962 sdot 2(120573+1)2119901 = 120572 + 12 119902 = 120573 + 12
(20)
According to Lemma 3 we can show that the fourth and fifthsubsystems in model (10) are stable in fixed time
1199052 = 1205871198962 (120573 minus 120572) sdot 2(120572+120573minus2)4 (21)
whichmeans that when 119905 ge 1199052 then 120596 = 0 and 120575 = 0 In otherwords when 119905 ge 1199051 + 1199052 the value of 120575 tends to be stable
To sum up when 119905 ge 1199053 where 1199053 = 1199051 + 1199052 + Δ119905 and Δ119905 isthe time from 119910 = 0 to 119906120596 acting onmodel (10) the hydraulicturbine governing system (10) is stable under the controllers119906119910 and 119906120596 That is the system is stable in a fixed time and thetheorem is proved

Figures 1(a)ndash1(c) are the response curves of the systemvariables 120575 120596 and 119910 when the hydraulic turbine governingsystem is not controlled From Figure 1 it is clear that thesteady state of the system state variable 119910 is about 06 s beforebeing controlledThe state of the system variables 120575 and120596 areaperiodic and are always in a state of instability
Figures 2(a)ndash2(b) are the response curves of the fixed-time controllers 119906120596 and 119906119910 respectively In this simulation119906119910 acts on the hydraulic turbine governing system in 03 sand 119906120596 acts on the hydraulic turbine governing system in075 s Figures 3(a)ndash3(c) are the response curves of the systemvariables 120575 120596 and 119910 after the fixed-time controllers 119906119910 and119906120596 are applied to the hydraulic turbine governing systemrespectively From Figure 3 it is clear that when the systemis coupled with 119906119910 in 03 s and 119906120596 in 075 s the system statevariable 119910 reaches a stable state at 0326 s and the system statevariables 120575 and 120596 achieve stable state at 2 s simultaneouslyThe simulation results show that the system can achieve astable state in a short time by fixed-time controllers and thecontrol effect is achieved
In order to make a fair comparison between fixed-time control and finite-time control the parameters initialconditions and the tuning parameters of the terminal attrac-tor are the same in this paper Figures 4(a)ndash4(c) are thecomparison of response curves of system state variables 120575 120596and 119910 with fixed-time controllers and finite-time controllersrespectively From Figure 4 it is obvious that the settlingtime of system state variable 119910 under the action of fixed-timecontrollers is mostly equal to the settling time of system statevariable 119910 under the action of the finite-time controllers Thesystem state variables 120575 and 120596 achieve stable state at 2 s underthe action of fixed-time controllers simultaneously And thesystem state variables 120575 and 120596 achieve stable state at 207 sunder the action of finite-time controllers simultaneouslyThe fixed-time controllers stabilize the nonlinear systemfaster than finite-time controllers do Thus the fixed-timemethod has the better capacity to handle a nonlinear systemin a short time
To explore the relationship between the settling time andthe values of the parameters 120572 and 120573 experimentally we

are 120572 = 05 and 120573 = 11 13 15 17 19 In Figures 5 and 6the system parameters and other controller parameters andtuning parameters of the terminal attractor are consistentwith the previous sections The simulation results clearlyshow that changing the controller parameters 120572 and 120573 canchange the time of the system state variables 120575 and 120596 to reachthe steady state But the time of the system state variable 119910 toreach the steady state is almost the same And the smaller the120572 and 120573 value of the system are the faster the settling timewill be Moreover the influence of 120573 on the settling time ofthe system state variables 120575 and 120596 is less than the influenceof 120572 on the settling time of the system state variables 120575 and120596 The simulation results are consistent with the theoreticalanalysis of the maximum stable time 1199053 of the system in theprevious section Moreover the values of 120572 and 120573 also affectthe stability value of the system state variable 120575 That is to
say we can get the size of the system state variable 120575 to thenumerical value we need by controlling the size of 120572 and 120573
In order to explore the effect of the initial state ofhydropower system with fixed-time controllers we com-pared the response of three different initial conditionsof the hydropower system Figures 7(a)ndash7(c) show theresponse of the system state variables 120575 120596 and 119910 atdifferent initial conditions with the fixed-time controllers119906120596 and 119906119910 respectively From Figures 7(a)ndash7(c) it isclear that when the initial states of system are 1198781 =(008 008 008 008 008 008) 1198782 = (01 01 01 01 0101) and 1198783 = (012 012 012 012 012 012) and thesystem is coupled with 119906119910 at 03 s and 119906120596 at 075 s the systemstate variables 120575 are stable at 192 s 2 s and 222 s respectivelyThe system states variables 120596 are also stable at 192 s 2 s and222 s respectively The system state variables 119910 are all stable

Figure 6 Response of 120573 of the system controlled by fixed-time controllers
at 0326 s These simulation results show that when the initialstate of the system changes the settling times of the systemstate variables have changed but they are not more thantheoretical deduction time 1199053 That is to say the simulationresults are consistent with the theoretical derivation
4 Conclusions
In this paper to ensure the safe and stable operation ofhydraulic turbine governing system a new control methodbased on the fixed-time theory is proposed Comparedwith the finite-time control method the hydraulic turbinegoverning system under the fixed-time controllers has moreadvantages better robustness fast response ability and thesetting time to reach the stable state being regardless ofthe initial state Finally the effectiveness and superiority of
the proposed control method are verified by the simulationresults Note that time delay may influence the dynamicbehavior of the system the fixed-time control of hydraulicturbine governing system with time delay is our futuredirection

From system (8) we can see that 119875(0 0 0 119898 0 0) is apoint of equilibrium of the system where 119898 is a constant Inorder to make the system fast and stable to the equilibriumpoint 119875 the fifth and sixth subsystems of model (8) are addedwith the controllers 119906120596 and 119906119910 and the controlled system isformed as follows

where the parameters 120572 and 120573 satisfy 0 lt 120572 lt 1 and 120573 gt 1 andthe parameters 1198961 and 1198962 are tuning parameters of the terminalattractor
Proof Here we use the two-step method of two steps toprove that the system is stable for the fixed time for thesixth subsystem of system (10) we put 119906119910 into the controlledsubsystem and we can have the following relationship

The Lyapunov function is constructed as follows
1198811 (119905) = 11991022 (13)
The derivative along the trajectory of the sixth subsystem in(10) can be obtained

4 Mathematical Problems in Engineering
According to Lemma 3 we know that the sixth subsystem inmodel (10) is stable in fixed time
1199051 = 1205871198791199101198961 (120573 minus 120572) sdot 2(120572+120573minus2)4 (16)
which means that the system state variable 119910 satisfies thefollowing relation 119910 = 0 when 119905 ge 1199051 And
1 = 11990922 = 11990933 = minus11988601199091 minus 11988611199092 minus 11988621199093120575 = 1205960120596 = 1119879119886119887 [(1198870 minus 11988601198873) 1199091 + (1198871 minus 11988611198873) 1199092+ (1198872 minus 11988621198873) 1199093 minus 119863120596 minus 119875119890] + 119906120596
(17)
To this end we select the following Lyapunov function
1198812 (119905) = 12059622 (18)
Thus

where
119898 = 1198962 sdot 2(120572+1)2119899 = 1198962 sdot 2(120573+1)2119901 = 120572 + 12 119902 = 120573 + 12
(20)
According to Lemma 3 we can show that the fourth and fifthsubsystems in model (10) are stable in fixed time
1199052 = 1205871198962 (120573 minus 120572) sdot 2(120572+120573minus2)4 (21)
whichmeans that when 119905 ge 1199052 then 120596 = 0 and 120575 = 0 In otherwords when 119905 ge 1199051 + 1199052 the value of 120575 tends to be stable
To sum up when 119905 ge 1199053 where 1199053 = 1199051 + 1199052 + Δ119905 and Δ119905 isthe time from 119910 = 0 to 119906120596 acting onmodel (10) the hydraulicturbine governing system (10) is stable under the controllers119906119910 and 119906120596 That is the system is stable in a fixed time and thetheorem is proved
3 Numerical Simulations
In this section numerical results are provided to verify thetheoretical results The system parameters and controllerparameters in this paper are 1205960 = 314 119879119886119887 = 80 119863 = 051198641015840119902 = 135 1199091015840119889Σ = 115 119909119902Σ = 1474 119879119910 = 01 119881119904 = 10119890119902ℎ = 05 119890119910 = 10 119879119903 = 10 ℎ120596 = 20 119903 = 0 1198860 = 24 1198861 = 241198862 = 3 1198870 = 24 1198871 = 336 1198872 = 3 and 1198873 = minus14 respectivelyThe simulation sampling time is 00001 s and the initial statesare (1199091 1199092 1199093 120575 120596 119910) = (01 01 01 01 01 01)
Figures 1(a)ndash1(c) are the response curves of the systemvariables 120575 120596 and 119910 when the hydraulic turbine governingsystem is not controlled From Figure 1 it is clear that thesteady state of the system state variable 119910 is about 06 s beforebeing controlledThe state of the system variables 120575 and120596 areaperiodic and are always in a state of instability
Figures 2(a)ndash2(b) are the response curves of the fixed-time controllers 119906120596 and 119906119910 respectively In this simulation119906119910 acts on the hydraulic turbine governing system in 03 sand 119906120596 acts on the hydraulic turbine governing system in075 s Figures 3(a)ndash3(c) are the response curves of the systemvariables 120575 120596 and 119910 after the fixed-time controllers 119906119910 and119906120596 are applied to the hydraulic turbine governing systemrespectively From Figure 3 it is clear that when the systemis coupled with 119906119910 in 03 s and 119906120596 in 075 s the system statevariable 119910 reaches a stable state at 0326 s and the system statevariables 120575 and 120596 achieve stable state at 2 s simultaneouslyThe simulation results show that the system can achieve astable state in a short time by fixed-time controllers and thecontrol effect is achieved
In order to make a fair comparison between fixed-time control and finite-time control the parameters initialconditions and the tuning parameters of the terminal attrac-tor are the same in this paper Figures 4(a)ndash4(c) are thecomparison of response curves of system state variables 120575 120596and 119910 with fixed-time controllers and finite-time controllersrespectively From Figure 4 it is obvious that the settlingtime of system state variable 119910 under the action of fixed-timecontrollers is mostly equal to the settling time of system statevariable 119910 under the action of the finite-time controllers Thesystem state variables 120575 and 120596 achieve stable state at 2 s underthe action of fixed-time controllers simultaneously And thesystem state variables 120575 and 120596 achieve stable state at 207 sunder the action of finite-time controllers simultaneouslyThe fixed-time controllers stabilize the nonlinear systemfaster than finite-time controllers do Thus the fixed-timemethod has the better capacity to handle a nonlinear systemin a short time
To explore the relationship between the settling time andthe values of the parameters 120572 and 120573 experimentally we

are 120572 = 05 and 120573 = 11 13 15 17 19 In Figures 5 and 6the system parameters and other controller parameters andtuning parameters of the terminal attractor are consistentwith the previous sections The simulation results clearlyshow that changing the controller parameters 120572 and 120573 canchange the time of the system state variables 120575 and 120596 to reachthe steady state But the time of the system state variable 119910 toreach the steady state is almost the same And the smaller the120572 and 120573 value of the system are the faster the settling timewill be Moreover the influence of 120573 on the settling time ofthe system state variables 120575 and 120596 is less than the influenceof 120572 on the settling time of the system state variables 120575 and120596 The simulation results are consistent with the theoreticalanalysis of the maximum stable time 1199053 of the system in theprevious section Moreover the values of 120572 and 120573 also affectthe stability value of the system state variable 120575 That is to
say we can get the size of the system state variable 120575 to thenumerical value we need by controlling the size of 120572 and 120573
In order to explore the effect of the initial state ofhydropower system with fixed-time controllers we com-pared the response of three different initial conditionsof the hydropower system Figures 7(a)ndash7(c) show theresponse of the system state variables 120575 120596 and 119910 atdifferent initial conditions with the fixed-time controllers119906120596 and 119906119910 respectively From Figures 7(a)ndash7(c) it isclear that when the initial states of system are 1198781 =(008 008 008 008 008 008) 1198782 = (01 01 01 01 0101) and 1198783 = (012 012 012 012 012 012) and thesystem is coupled with 119906119910 at 03 s and 119906120596 at 075 s the systemstate variables 120575 are stable at 192 s 2 s and 222 s respectivelyThe system states variables 120596 are also stable at 192 s 2 s and222 s respectively The system state variables 119910 are all stable

4 Conclusions
In this paper to ensure the safe and stable operation ofhydraulic turbine governing system a new control methodbased on the fixed-time theory is proposed Comparedwith the finite-time control method the hydraulic turbinegoverning system under the fixed-time controllers has moreadvantages better robustness fast response ability and thesetting time to reach the stable state being regardless ofthe initial state Finally the effectiveness and superiority of
the proposed control method are verified by the simulationresults Note that time delay may influence the dynamicbehavior of the system the fixed-time control of hydraulicturbine governing system with time delay is our futuredirection

1 = 11990922 = 11990933 = minus11988601199091 minus 11988611199092 minus 11988621199093120575 = 1205960120596 = 1119879119886119887 [(1198870 minus 11988601198873) 1199091 + (1198871 minus 11988611198873) 1199092+ (1198872 minus 11988621198873) 1199093 minus 119863120596 minus 119875119890] + 119906120596
(17)
To this end we select the following Lyapunov function
1198812 (119905) = 12059622 (18)
Thus

(20)
According to Lemma 3 we can show that the fourth and fifthsubsystems in model (10) are stable in fixed time
1199052 = 1205871198962 (120573 minus 120572) sdot 2(120572+120573minus2)4 (21)
whichmeans that when 119905 ge 1199052 then 120596 = 0 and 120575 = 0 In otherwords when 119905 ge 1199051 + 1199052 the value of 120575 tends to be stable
To sum up when 119905 ge 1199053 where 1199053 = 1199051 + 1199052 + Δ119905 and Δ119905 isthe time from 119910 = 0 to 119906120596 acting onmodel (10) the hydraulicturbine governing system (10) is stable under the controllers119906119910 and 119906120596 That is the system is stable in a fixed time and thetheorem is proved
3 Numerical Simulations
In this section numerical results are provided to verify thetheoretical results The system parameters and controllerparameters in this paper are 1205960 = 314 119879119886119887 = 80 119863 = 051198641015840119902 = 135 1199091015840119889Σ = 115 119909119902Σ = 1474 119879119910 = 01 119881119904 = 10119890119902ℎ = 05 119890119910 = 10 119879119903 = 10 ℎ120596 = 20 119903 = 0 1198860 = 24 1198861 = 241198862 = 3 1198870 = 24 1198871 = 336 1198872 = 3 and 1198873 = minus14 respectivelyThe simulation sampling time is 00001 s and the initial statesare (1199091 1199092 1199093 120575 120596 119910) = (01 01 01 01 01 01)
Figures 1(a)ndash1(c) are the response curves of the systemvariables 120575 120596 and 119910 when the hydraulic turbine governingsystem is not controlled From Figure 1 it is clear that thesteady state of the system state variable 119910 is about 06 s beforebeing controlledThe state of the system variables 120575 and120596 areaperiodic and are always in a state of instability
Figures 2(a)ndash2(b) are the response curves of the fixed-time controllers 119906120596 and 119906119910 respectively In this simulation119906119910 acts on the hydraulic turbine governing system in 03 sand 119906120596 acts on the hydraulic turbine governing system in075 s Figures 3(a)ndash3(c) are the response curves of the systemvariables 120575 120596 and 119910 after the fixed-time controllers 119906119910 and119906120596 are applied to the hydraulic turbine governing systemrespectively From Figure 3 it is clear that when the systemis coupled with 119906119910 in 03 s and 119906120596 in 075 s the system statevariable 119910 reaches a stable state at 0326 s and the system statevariables 120575 and 120596 achieve stable state at 2 s simultaneouslyThe simulation results show that the system can achieve astable state in a short time by fixed-time controllers and thecontrol effect is achieved
In order to make a fair comparison between fixed-time control and finite-time control the parameters initialconditions and the tuning parameters of the terminal attrac-tor are the same in this paper Figures 4(a)ndash4(c) are thecomparison of response curves of system state variables 120575 120596and 119910 with fixed-time controllers and finite-time controllersrespectively From Figure 4 it is obvious that the settlingtime of system state variable 119910 under the action of fixed-timecontrollers is mostly equal to the settling time of system statevariable 119910 under the action of the finite-time controllers Thesystem state variables 120575 and 120596 achieve stable state at 2 s underthe action of fixed-time controllers simultaneously And thesystem state variables 120575 and 120596 achieve stable state at 207 sunder the action of finite-time controllers simultaneouslyThe fixed-time controllers stabilize the nonlinear systemfaster than finite-time controllers do Thus the fixed-timemethod has the better capacity to handle a nonlinear systemin a short time
To explore the relationship between the settling time andthe values of the parameters 120572 and 120573 experimentally we

are 120572 = 05 and 120573 = 11 13 15 17 19 In Figures 5 and 6the system parameters and other controller parameters andtuning parameters of the terminal attractor are consistentwith the previous sections The simulation results clearlyshow that changing the controller parameters 120572 and 120573 canchange the time of the system state variables 120575 and 120596 to reachthe steady state But the time of the system state variable 119910 toreach the steady state is almost the same And the smaller the120572 and 120573 value of the system are the faster the settling timewill be Moreover the influence of 120573 on the settling time ofthe system state variables 120575 and 120596 is less than the influenceof 120572 on the settling time of the system state variables 120575 and120596 The simulation results are consistent with the theoreticalanalysis of the maximum stable time 1199053 of the system in theprevious section Moreover the values of 120572 and 120573 also affectthe stability value of the system state variable 120575 That is to
say we can get the size of the system state variable 120575 to thenumerical value we need by controlling the size of 120572 and 120573
In order to explore the effect of the initial state ofhydropower system with fixed-time controllers we com-pared the response of three different initial conditionsof the hydropower system Figures 7(a)ndash7(c) show theresponse of the system state variables 120575 120596 and 119910 atdifferent initial conditions with the fixed-time controllers119906120596 and 119906119910 respectively From Figures 7(a)ndash7(c) it isclear that when the initial states of system are 1198781 =(008 008 008 008 008 008) 1198782 = (01 01 01 01 0101) and 1198783 = (012 012 012 012 012 012) and thesystem is coupled with 119906119910 at 03 s and 119906120596 at 075 s the systemstate variables 120575 are stable at 192 s 2 s and 222 s respectivelyThe system states variables 120596 are also stable at 192 s 2 s and222 s respectively The system state variables 119910 are all stable

4 Conclusions
In this paper to ensure the safe and stable operation ofhydraulic turbine governing system a new control methodbased on the fixed-time theory is proposed Comparedwith the finite-time control method the hydraulic turbinegoverning system under the fixed-time controllers has moreadvantages better robustness fast response ability and thesetting time to reach the stable state being regardless ofthe initial state Finally the effectiveness and superiority of
the proposed control method are verified by the simulationresults Note that time delay may influence the dynamicbehavior of the system the fixed-time control of hydraulicturbine governing system with time delay is our futuredirection

Figure 5 Response of 120572 of the system controlled by fixed-time controllers
are 120572 = 05 and 120573 = 11 13 15 17 19 In Figures 5 and 6the system parameters and other controller parameters andtuning parameters of the terminal attractor are consistentwith the previous sections The simulation results clearlyshow that changing the controller parameters 120572 and 120573 canchange the time of the system state variables 120575 and 120596 to reachthe steady state But the time of the system state variable 119910 toreach the steady state is almost the same And the smaller the120572 and 120573 value of the system are the faster the settling timewill be Moreover the influence of 120573 on the settling time ofthe system state variables 120575 and 120596 is less than the influenceof 120572 on the settling time of the system state variables 120575 and120596 The simulation results are consistent with the theoreticalanalysis of the maximum stable time 1199053 of the system in theprevious section Moreover the values of 120572 and 120573 also affectthe stability value of the system state variable 120575 That is to
say we can get the size of the system state variable 120575 to thenumerical value we need by controlling the size of 120572 and 120573
In order to explore the effect of the initial state ofhydropower system with fixed-time controllers we com-pared the response of three different initial conditionsof the hydropower system Figures 7(a)ndash7(c) show theresponse of the system state variables 120575 120596 and 119910 atdifferent initial conditions with the fixed-time controllers119906120596 and 119906119910 respectively From Figures 7(a)ndash7(c) it isclear that when the initial states of system are 1198781 =(008 008 008 008 008 008) 1198782 = (01 01 01 01 0101) and 1198783 = (012 012 012 012 012 012) and thesystem is coupled with 119906119910 at 03 s and 119906120596 at 075 s the systemstate variables 120575 are stable at 192 s 2 s and 222 s respectivelyThe system states variables 120596 are also stable at 192 s 2 s and222 s respectively The system state variables 119910 are all stable

Figure 6 Response of 120573 of the system controlled by fixed-time controllers
at 0326 s These simulation results show that when the initialstate of the system changes the settling times of the systemstate variables have changed but they are not more thantheoretical deduction time 1199053 That is to say the simulationresults are consistent with the theoretical derivation
4 Conclusions
In this paper to ensure the safe and stable operation ofhydraulic turbine governing system a new control methodbased on the fixed-time theory is proposed Comparedwith the finite-time control method the hydraulic turbinegoverning system under the fixed-time controllers has moreadvantages better robustness fast response ability and thesetting time to reach the stable state being regardless ofthe initial state Finally the effectiveness and superiority of
the proposed control method are verified by the simulationresults Note that time delay may influence the dynamicbehavior of the system the fixed-time control of hydraulicturbine governing system with time delay is our futuredirection

say we can get the size of the system state variable 120575 to thenumerical value we need by controlling the size of 120572 and 120573
In order to explore the effect of the initial state ofhydropower system with fixed-time controllers we com-pared the response of three different initial conditionsof the hydropower system Figures 7(a)ndash7(c) show theresponse of the system state variables 120575 120596 and 119910 atdifferent initial conditions with the fixed-time controllers119906120596 and 119906119910 respectively From Figures 7(a)ndash7(c) it isclear that when the initial states of system are 1198781 =(008 008 008 008 008 008) 1198782 = (01 01 01 01 0101) and 1198783 = (012 012 012 012 012 012) and thesystem is coupled with 119906119910 at 03 s and 119906120596 at 075 s the systemstate variables 120575 are stable at 192 s 2 s and 222 s respectivelyThe system states variables 120596 are also stable at 192 s 2 s and222 s respectively The system state variables 119910 are all stable

Figure 6 Response of 120573 of the system controlled by fixed-time controllers
at 0326 s These simulation results show that when the initialstate of the system changes the settling times of the systemstate variables have changed but they are not more thantheoretical deduction time 1199053 That is to say the simulationresults are consistent with the theoretical derivation
4 Conclusions
In this paper to ensure the safe and stable operation ofhydraulic turbine governing system a new control methodbased on the fixed-time theory is proposed Comparedwith the finite-time control method the hydraulic turbinegoverning system under the fixed-time controllers has moreadvantages better robustness fast response ability and thesetting time to reach the stable state being regardless ofthe initial state Finally the effectiveness and superiority of
the proposed control method are verified by the simulationresults Note that time delay may influence the dynamicbehavior of the system the fixed-time control of hydraulicturbine governing system with time delay is our futuredirection

Figure 6 Response of 120573 of the system controlled by fixed-time controllers
at 0326 s These simulation results show that when the initialstate of the system changes the settling times of the systemstate variables have changed but they are not more thantheoretical deduction time 1199053 That is to say the simulationresults are consistent with the theoretical derivation
4 Conclusions
In this paper to ensure the safe and stable operation ofhydraulic turbine governing system a new control methodbased on the fixed-time theory is proposed Comparedwith the finite-time control method the hydraulic turbinegoverning system under the fixed-time controllers has moreadvantages better robustness fast response ability and thesetting time to reach the stable state being regardless ofthe initial state Finally the effectiveness and superiority of
the proposed control method are verified by the simulationresults Note that time delay may influence the dynamicbehavior of the system the fixed-time control of hydraulicturbine governing system with time delay is our futuredirection
