A discrete model reference adaptive control for temperature tracking in steam distillation process

摘要

This paper demonstrates the performance of Model Reference Adaptive Controller (MRAC) using Lyapunov and MIT schemes applied in steam distillation process in real-time and simulated conditions. The integral limits in MRAC were varied during the experiment. Simulated results shows that low SSE and RMSE were obtained when adaptation gain and integral limit were set to 0.003 and +0.01 respectively. However, in real time control, low SSE and RMSE were obtained when the integral limit was eliminated in MRAC Lyapunov and MRAC MIT control structure.
