Abstract :
This paper presents the design and evaluation of three regulators for an industrial evaporation station: a conventional PI controller, a fuzzy logic controller and a generalized predictive controller (GPC). Linearized models are derived to design the predictive controller. The process diagram, the instrumentation, the nonlinear model, the controllers design and the implementation are described. Performance of the three regulators are compared by simulation
