Abstract:This paper is concerned with the real-time optimization (RTO) of chemical plants, i.e., the optimization of the steady-state operating points during operation, based on inaccurate models. Specifically, modifier adaptation is employed to cope with the plant-model mismatch, which corrects the plant model and the constraint functions by bias and gradient correction terms that are computed from measured variables at the steady-states of the plant. This implies that the sampling time of the iterative RTO scheme is … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
