Multivariable constrained model-based predictive control with application to boiler systems

This paper deals with the control problem under nonlinear boiler systems with noise, and input constraints. MCMBPC(Multivariable Constrained Model-Based Predictive Controller) proposed by Wilkinson et al.[10,11] is used and nominal model is modified in this paper in order to applied to nonlinear boiler systems with feed-forward terms. The solution of the cost function optimization constrained on input and/or output variables is achieved using quadratic programming, via singular value decomposition(SVD). The controller designed is shown to satisfy the constraints and to have excellent tracking performance via simulation applied to nonlinear dynamic drum boiler turbine model for 16OMW unit.
