Radial basis network estimator of oxygen content in the flue gas of debutanizer reboiler

<span>The energy efficiency in the debutanizer reboiler combustion can be monitored from oxygen content of flue gas reboiler. The measurement conducted situ using an sensor. However, soot that may appear around sensor due to process obstruct sensor’s function. In-situ redundancy sensors’ unavailability is a significant problem when damaged, so measures must made directly by workers portable devices. On other hand, worker safety primary concern working high-risk work areas. In this paper, we propose software-based or soft overcome problems. radial basis function network model makes sensors adapt data updates because their advantage as universal approximator. estimation with has been successfully carried out. generates estimated mean square error 0.216% standard deviation 0.0242%. Stochastics gradient descent algorithm momentum acceleration and dimension reduction principal component analysis improves performance.</span>
