Effect of Model Plant Mismatch in Model Predictive Controller Performance: Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor

Plant model is one of the important aspects in the design and implementation of Model Predictive Controller (MPC). The performance of MPC depends on the accuracy and quality of plant model. However, dynamic behaviour of a plant may change with time. Hence, plant model that are used for the design wi...

description Plant model is one of the important aspects in the design and implementation of Model Predictive Controller (MPC). The performance of MPC depends on the accuracy and quality of plant model. However, dynamic behaviour of a plant may change with time. Hence, plant model that are used for the design will no longer represent the plant current state after some time. In this dissertation, the effect of model plant mismatch on MPC performance will be shown by the researcher.
