Event-Triggered Optimal Control for Temperature Field of Roller Kiln Based on Adaptive Dynamic Programming.

Abstract

Temperature field control is crucial for the comprehensive performance of Ni-Co-Mn layered cathode material that is the most important part of lithium-ion batteries. Starting from the aspect of a class of distributed parameter systems described by highly dissipative partial differential equations (PDEs), an event-triggered optimal control (ETOC) method based on adaptive dynamic programming (ADP) for the roller kiln temperature field is proposed. First, we formulate the event-triggered control problem of the temperature field under the general framework of PDE systems. Then, an event-triggered condition is designed based on the stability of the closed-loop PDE system, which also guarantees the upper bound of the performance index. Subsequently, ADP technology is adopted to realize the ETOC, where the critic network is employed to approximate the optimal value function. Since the studied system can be regarded as an impulsive dynamic system with flow dynamics and jump dynamics simultaneously, the stability of the impulsive dynamic system combined with the ADP-based closed-loop PDE system is proved. Finally, simulation results on the temperature field verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
