Area of Science:

  • Chemical Engineering
  • Control Systems Theory
  • Nonlinear Dynamics

Background:

  • Strongly nonlinear reactor systems present significant control challenges.
  • Conventional linear controllers often struggle with complex dynamics and disturbances.
  • Globally linearized control (GLC) offers a promising alternative for robust system management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the efficacy of globally linearized control (GLC) for strongly nonlinear reactor systems.
  • To develop and apply a nonlinear control strategy using GLC for diabatic continuous stirred tank reactors (DCSTRs).
  • To compare the performance of GLC with conventional controllers.

Main Methods:

  • Design of a nonlinear control strategy comprising input-output linearizing state feedback, a state observer, and an external linear controller.

  • Synthesis of discrete-time GLC controllers for single-input single-output (SISO) and multi-input multi-output (MIMO) DCSTRs, including considerations for dead time.
  • Application and simulation of the GLC structure on DCSTR models.
  • Main Results:

    • The proposed nonlinear control strategy based on GLC demonstrated high-quality performance across various DCSTR configurations.
    • GLC controllers, particularly when combined with reduced-order observers, outperformed conventional proportional-integral (PI) controllers in simulation studies.
    • Effective control was achieved for both SISO and MIMO DCSTR systems, even with process and disturbance dead time.

    Conclusions:

    • Globally linearized control (GLC) provides a robust and effective nonlinear control solution for strongly nonlinear reactor systems.
    • The developed GLC strategy offers significant performance advantages over traditional control methods for DCSTRs.
    • GLC is a viable and superior approach for enhancing the control of complex chemical processes.
