Self-optimizing control: the missing link between steady-state optimization and control
نویسنده
چکیده
Real-time steady-state optimization (RTO) has become increasing popular in recent years. But how should this optimal policy be implemented in the control system? It is argued that the goal is to find a set of controlled variables which, when kept at constant setpoints, indirectly lead to near-optimal operation with acceptable loss. This is denoted ‘self-optimizing’ control.

Self-optimizing Control and NCO tracking in the Context of Real-Time Optimization
This paper reviews the role of self-optimizing control (SOC) and necessary conditions of optimality tracking (NCO tracking). We argue that self-optimizing control is not an alternative to real-time optimization (RTO), NCO tracking or model predictive control (MPC), but is to be seen as complementary. In self-optimizing control we determine controlled variables (CV), that keep the process close ...
متن کاملOptimal Operation of a Waste Incineration Plant
A case study of a waste incineration plant operating close to optimality by using simple feed-back control schemes is presented. Using off-line optimization the structure of the optimization problem is exploited and a set of variables is found, such that if the process is controlled with those variables are at their setpoints, operation is near-optimal. The procedure applied to the waste incine...
متن کاملOn the Equivalence between Neighboring-Extremal Control and Self-Optimizing Control for the Steady-State Optimization of Dynamical Systems
The problem of steering a dynamical system toward optimal steady-state performance is considered. For this purpose, a static optimization problem can be formulated and solved. However, because of uncertainty, the optimal steady-state inputs can rarely be applied directly in an open-loop manner. Instead, plant measurements are typically used to help reach the plant optimum. This paper investigat...
متن کاملOptimal power management of fuel cell hybrid vehicles
This paper presents a control strategy developed for optimizing the power flow in a Fuel Cell Hybrid Vehicle structure. This method implements an on-line power management based on the optimal fuzzy controller between dual power sources that consist of a battery bank and a Fuel Cell (FC). The power management strategy in the hybrid control structure is crucial for balancing between efficiency an...
متن کاملExplicit MPC with output feedback using self-optimizing control
Model predictive control (MPC) is a favored method for handling constrained linear control problems. Normally, the MPC optimization problem is solved on-line, but in ‘explicit MPC’ an explicit precomputed feedback law is used for each region of active constraints (Bemporad et al., 2002). In this paper we make a link between this and the ‘self-optimizing control’ idea of finding simple policies ...
