Application of Active Disturbance Rejection in Main Steam Temperature Control of Thermal Power Plant

摘要

In large-scale thermal power plants, the control of boiler main steam temperature functions as an indispensable part to improve the economic efficiency and ensure the unit's safety. Currently, the main steam system is always characterized as a dynamic system with big delay, large inertia and huge uncertainties. Considering the characteristics above, the Active Disturbance Rejection Control (ADRC) is designed and serves as a creative solution to the problem of main steam temperature control. In this paper, a guiding temperature signal is adopted as an auxiliary feedback signal, which constitutes the cascade control loop of ADRC-PI.
