Read MoreA first principles model is put up. The model is linearized and an LQG controller is designed. Furthermore the benefit of using a steam flow measurement is compared to a strategy relying on estimates of the disturbance. Preliminary tests at the boiler system show that the designed controller is able to control the boiler process.
Read MoreBy using real-world boiler efficiency data we show that the proposed approach results in a (dynamic) nonlinear efficiency curve which gives a more complete description of the condensing boilers operation than static nonlinear efficiency curves: in addition, the dynamic curve can be derived 'a priori', i.e. from first principles, or from
