Abstract :
A model predictive control algorithm based on the second order Volterra model is proposed, and simulation results for the control of two isothermal continuous stirred tank reactors are presented. The responses of both reactors controlled with a linear MPC scheme and the second order Volterra MPC scheme are compared to a desired, linear reference trajectory. In the majority of the cases examined, the response obtained by the Volterra controller followed the reference trajectory more closely.
