It aims to provide a comprehensive technological review for both water engineering professionals and control specialists, giving rise to a suite of up-to-date pathways to impact this field in light of the classified technology hubs. The assessment was conducted with respect to linear control, linearizing control,nonlinear control, and artificial intelligence-based control. The application domain of each technology hub was summarized into a set of comparative tables for a holistic assessment.

This method provides a reliable and robust state representation of the model, taking advantage of its benefits in the control, monitoring, and supervision of this machine. The model for each variable is set so that the state matrices associated with the gas turbine model are determined from their real input/output data. The comparison of the obtained identification results with those of the actual turbine operation serves to validate the proposed model in this work. This numerical algorithm of the subspace identification method is full of information and more accurate in terms of residual modeling error, and expresses a very high level of confidence in the identified turbine system dynamics. Hence, the controllability and observability tests of turbine operation for different input/output variables allowed to validate the real-time operating stability of the turbine.展开更多
