Abstract
In this paper, a heating process control law with steam supply is designed for a fluid in a heat exchanger. The process is described by a linear hyperbolic equation of the first order with a nonlocal boundary condition with a time-delayed argument. The temperature of the supplied steam is found as a linear dependence on fluid temperature values at measurement points in the heat exchanger. Explicit formulas are obtained for the gradient of the objective functional of the control problem in the space of the feedback coefficients (parameters) of this dependence. A numerical scheme is developed for determining the feedback parameters based on these formulas. Finally, an algorithm is proposed for determining the rational (optimal) number of measurement points.
期刊介绍:
Automation and Remote Control is one of the first journals on control theory. The scope of the journal is control theory problems and applications. The journal publishes reviews, original articles, and short communications (deterministic, stochastic, adaptive, and robust formulations) and its applications (computer control, components and instruments, process control, social and economy control, etc.).
