For the characteristics of the main steam pressure in coal-fired power plant boiler, the sliding mode control system with Smith predictive structure is proposed to look for performance and robustness improvement. First, internal model control (IMC) and Smith predictor (SP) is used to deal with the time delay, and sliding mode controller (SMCr) is designed to overcome the model mismatch. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed controller compared with conventional ones.展开更多

Firstly, the nonlinear mathematic model of the system including the itation and steam valving is exactly linearized via state feedback. Then, the quasi-linearized system after the exact lineariztion is controlled by the sliding model controller based on Lyapunov direct method. At last, the novel coordinated controller is compared with a traditional linear controller and a nonlinear optimal controller respectively by simulations. The simulation results show that the proposed controller gives better dynamic response and stronger robustness.展开更多
