Design of a Boiler-Turbine Control System Using a Modified LQG/LTR Method |
Abstract |
In this paper, a multivariable robust controller for a boiler-burbine system is designed by using a modified LQG/LTR method. From the known nonlinear dynamic model, a linearized model is obtained with the saturations at both input magnitude and input varying rate. The modeling error is analyzed at various operation points. A new dynamics augmentation method in the LQG/LTR method is suggested which can be applied to LQG/LTR method to reject the input and output disturbances and to follow reference inputs under modeling errors. The good performance of the designed controller is shown by simulations in various conditions. |
