Abstract :
Taking account of reheating furnaces being multivariable systems with strong coupling and large time delay, the paper applied a decoupling technique and Smith compensation to control the furnace temperature. Experiments indicate that this proposed strategy can improve the performance of furnace temperature control greatly
