The Development and Investigation of an Algorithm for Automated Startup and Shutdown of a Group of High-Pressure Heaters with the Power Unit in Operation

A new algorithm for automated startup and shutdown of a group of high-pressure heaters with the power unit in operation is presented. Its main feature is sequential disconnection-connection of the steam of heaters, which are part of a group of high-pressure heaters; this simplifies the algorithm and increases the reliability of control of the group under transient conditions.
