This paper deals with the control problem of a natural circulation water tube boiler with constraint conditions. Some linearized models for the water tube boiler are proposed around some operating points, and the model based predictive control law is adopted to control the plant accounting for constraints. In this controller, the Kalman filter is used for the state estimation, and the controller is designed based on the linearized model. The control performance of the designed controller is exemplified via some nonlinear simulations around the operation point, which show it works well.

In this research a fault-tolerant and bumpless switching control is proposed for boiler systems used in the power plants. Firstly, three operating points are selected to control the nonlinear boiler through the full operational range, and the $H_{\infty}$ loop shaping controller and the model-based predictive controller(MBPC) are designed. To prevent the windup and bump problems which are caused by the actuator saturation and the controller switching, an anti-windup and bumpless transfer technique is adopted to the $H_{\infty}$ loop shaping controller. Also the constrained gain-scheduling technique is applied to MBPC to achieve the same objective. Secondly, the fault-tolerant control technique is proposed to continue the control action without stopping the boiler operation even in case of some faults. Through various simulation studies, the performances of the proposed control techniques are demonstrated.

발전소 제어시스템은 여러개의 제어루프가 있으면 이중 가장 중요한 것은 Unit master control(UMC)와 Boiler master control(BMC)이다. 전력거래소에서 발전기 출력 증발/감발 요구에 의해 가장먼저 BMC가 콘트롤 되어야 하고, 이어서 터빈 컨트롤이 추종하고 있기 때문이다. ABB P-14 제어시스템의 UMC의 각종기능과 구성에 대해 분석한 내용을 논하고자 한다.

This paper deals with a design of observer based fault detection filter for a boiler-turbine control system. The goal is to present a method for rapid sensor fault detection in order to enhance the reliability of boiler-turbine operation in the thermal power plant. Our fault detection filter can be designed via solutions of linear matrix inequalities. In order to demonstrate the efficacy of our design method, numerical simulations are provided.

This paper deals with MCMBPC(Multivariable Constrained Model Based Predictive Controller) for nonlinear boiler system with noise and disturbance. MCMBPC is designed by linear state space model obtained from some operating point of nonlinear boiler system and Kalman filter is used to estimate the state with noise and disturbance. The solution of optimization of the cost function constrained on input and/or output variables is achieved using quadratic programming, viz. singular value decomposition (SVD). The controller designed is shown to have excellent tracking performance via simulation applied to nonlinear dynamic drum boiler turbine model for 16OMW unit.

In this paper, we suggest a design scheme of receding horizon predictive control(RHPC) for boiler-turbine systems whose dynamics are given in nonlinear equations. RHPC is designed for linear state space models which are obtained at a nominal operating point of the boiler-turbine system. In this consideration, the boiler is operated in a sliding pressure mode, in which the reference value of drum pressure is changing according to the electrical power generation. The reference values of the system outputs are prefiltered before they are fed to the RHPC in order to compensate the linearization errors. Simulation results show that the proposed controller provides acceptable performances in both of the cases of 'steep and small changes' and 'slow and large changes' of power demand and yields the effect of modest coordination of conventional PID schemes such as boiler-following and turbine-following control.

In this paper, we present simulation results of Dynamic Matrix Control (DMC) to a Once-through boiler steam temperature. In order to control the steam temperatures, we choose spray and damper as two input variables. Then, the step response model is generated for the two major output variables by step test. After that, on-line optimization is performed using $(2\times2)$ step response model. Proposed controller is applied to the APESS (Doosan company's boiler model simulator) and the simulation results show satisfactory performance of proposed control.
