Abstract :
In this study, a nonlinear PDE pool-boiling model of two spatial components (2D) is considered. An output-based P-control law is applied to stabilise unstable equilibria of the system. Subsequently, the local and global stability of the closed-loop system are analyzed and the respective regions in parameter space where local and global exponential stability can be obtained are determined.
