Tank Reactor Temperature Control using Quantitative Feedback Theory
نویسندگان
چکیده
Temperature control of tank reactors with exothermic reactions is an acknowledgedly difficult task because of complex interacting phenomena, several nonlinearities and unstable dynamics. Traditionally, simple control functions are implemented, implying poor control performance and small operating windows. However, many advanced control schemes have been published, though in many applications they rely on too simplistic process models. Here, a control strategy using only a small number of linear controllers has successfully been applied to a rigorous reactor model, including the cooling system dynamics. The methodology is to first linearize the model in steady-state and relevant non-stationary points and let the resulting models define uncertainties in the frequency plane. Then Quantitative Feedback Theory (QFT) is used to ensure that robust feedback system specifications are fulfilled for all these uncertainties.

Entropy-based stabilizing feedback law under input constraints of a CSTR
The paper deals with nonlinear control under input constraints of a non isothermal Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR) using thermodynamic concepts. More precisely, the paper presents an extension of the previous work (Hoang et al. (2012)) where the jacket temperature is used as the only control input. Constrained input control strategy is based on the observation that the chemical reactor o...

Robust static feedback stabilization of linear systems with uncertainties and bounded control inputs is studied. Necessary and sufficient conditions of positive invariance of polyhedral domains with respect to motion of uncertain linear systems are formulated together with conditions ensuring the asymptotic stability of uncertain linear systems with bounded control inputs.

متن کاملAdaptive control of a continuous stirred tank reactor by two feedback controllers
The paper deals with adaptive control of a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR). A nonlinear model of the process is approximated by a continuous-time external linear model. The parameters of the CT external linear model of the process are estimated using a corresponding delta model. The control system with two feedback controllers is considered. The controller design is based on the polynomi...
متن کاملRobust Controller Design using Quantitative Feedback Theory (QFT)
Most of the practical systems are characterized by high uncertainty which makes it difficult to maintain good stability margins and performance properties for closed loop system. In case of conventional control, if plant parameter changes we cannot assure about the system performance hence it is necessary to design robust control for uncertain plant. Among the various strategies proposed to tac...
متن کاملAdaptive Extremum Seeking Control of Nonisothermal Continuous Stirred Tank Reactors with Temperature Constraints
In this paper, we present an adaptive extremum seeking control scheme for nonisothermal continuous stirred tank reactors subject to reactor temperature constraints. Only limited knowledge of the reaction kinetics is assumed with no direct measurement of the reaction mixture composition. An adaptive learning technique is introduced to construct an optimum seeking algorithm that drives the system...
