Adaptive predictive control in a thermal power station

Abstract

This article presents the application of the predictive adaptive control system (SCAP) to the control and optimization of the processes in a coal power station. The results obtained, corresponding to a research and development project at the Pasajes de San Juan Power Station, which belongs to the company Iberdrola, demonstrate the suitability of the SCAP application in this field as well as the important benefits that may be derived from its application.<>
