ABSTRACT:
A distributed control system (14) receives on the input thereof the control inputs and then outputs control signals to a plant (10) for the operation thereof. The measured variables of the plant and the control inputs are input to a predictive model (34) that operates in conjunction with an inverse model (36) to generate predicted control inputs. The predicted control inputs are processed through a filter (46) to apply hard constraints, the values of which are received from a control parameter block (22). During operation, predetermined criterion stored in the control parameter block (22) are utilized by a cost minimization block (42) to generate an error control signal which is minimized by the inverse model (36) to generate the control signals. The system works in two modes, an analyze mode and a runtime mode. In the analyze mode, the predictive model (34) and the inverse model (36) are connected to either training data or simulated data from the analyzer (30) and the operation of the plant (10) evaluated. The values of the hard constraints in filter (46) and the criterion utilized for the cost minimization (42) can then be varied to change the constraints on the control signals input to the control network, the predicted output of the predictive model (34) and the hard constraints stored in the filter (46). Cost coefficients can be utilized as the criterion to set the input values in accordance with predetermined cost constraints.
