Abstract :
This study presents the application of predictive control techniques consisting of General Predictive Control (GPC) and Constrained Receding-Horizon Predictive Control (CRHPC) to regulate the output power of large steam turbines. The performance of the control system has been verified by the simulation process and then tested on real-time process under the set point tracking and load disturbance. Results show the better performance of CRHPC in comparison with GPC in term of much accuracy and less fluctuations in the plant responses.
