Abstract: | A software package OLIOPT was developed for the on-line optimization of the steady-state behaviour of slow dynamic processes in a relatively short time period. In the starting phase, the independently variable inputs are changed according to a special test signal. A nonlinear dynamic process model is identified on-line. Based on the static part of the model and the known inputs, the gradients of the performance index are calculated. An optimization algorithm changes the inputs towards their optimal values. On-line identification of the nonlinear model continues and the prediction of the optimum improves. In the last phase, the inputs take their optimal values and the process follows, feedforward controlled, to its optimal steady-state. The method is suited for industrial processes with one or more variable inputs, where a small gain in efficiency turns out to give a relatively large financial return. Results are shown for the on-line optimization of a thermal pilot process. |
