The current flexibility of the energy market requires operating steam turbines that have challenging operation requirements such as variable conditions and higher number startups. This article proposes an advanced control system based on Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC) technique, which allows to speed up start-up increase produced while maintaining rotor stress a constraint variable. ...

In this paper‎, ‎a synthesis method based on robust model predictive control is developed for compensation of uncertain time-delays in networked control systems with bounded disturbance‎. ‎The proposed method uses linear matrix inequalities and uncertainty polytope to model uncertain time-delays and system disturbances‎. ‎The continuous system with time-delay is discretized using uncertainty po...
