Regarding the daily increasing development of process and chemical industries and the requirement to improve energy consumption and increasing the output, advanced process control strategies are utilized effectively. Model predictive control as a successful developed process control has been proposed to deal with problems having constraints and multivariable systems. The successful administration of this strategy requires proper adjustment of its’ parameters. In this research, three reservoir system has been modeled as a laboratory plant and predictive control algorithm for first order system with delay has been designed in the form of an unlimited case. The delayed first order model has been achieved though the implementation of a white noise signal into the plant to recognize the system. Then parameters were adjusted using an analytic method. Results of simulations showed that model predictive control has represented an optimal performance through proper adjustment of the parameters. تفاصيل المقالة
