Adaptive Control Of The Tubular Reactor With Co- And Counter-Current Cooling In The Jacket

摘要

This paper deals with the adaptive control of the tubular chemical reactor as a typical member of nonlinear system with continuously distributed parameters. Although this system has negative control properties, proposed adaptive controller which uses external linear model and recursive identification provides good control results. This controller is designed with the use of polynomial approach which satisfies basic control requirements. The main benefit of the counter-current cooling compared with co the co-current can be found in the cooling effectiveness which is better from the control point of view too. The controller could be tuned via position of the closed-loop root.
