摘要
We investigate the self-optimizing control (SOC) problem for nonlinear processes and propose a fast algorithm for solving controlled variables (CVs). Being different from those linear SOC methods, the proposed one minimizes the global average loss based on the rigorous nonlinear model. To quickly solve the derived non-convex linear programming (LP) problem, simplifications are introduced to the problem. Properties of the CV solution space are discussed to illustrate the rationality of introducing the orthogonal unitary constraint. On this basis, the analytical solution of suboptimal CVs is obtained in a further step. The developed methodology is applied to a numerical example and an evaporator process, where the simplicity and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm are demonstrated. © 2016, Editorial Department of Control Theory & Applications South China University of Technology.
