Abstract

To maintain the outlet temperature at the desired set-point, a high-order outlet temperature control model is established for a shell-and–tube heat exchanger, which is based on the analysis of its heat transfer process and dynamic properties .The Optimal PID control is applied to the temerature control system on the basis of this model, and the tuning parameters of the PID controller are obtained by numerical solving of a formulated optimization problem using Matlab/Simulink. An experimental control system is set up to testify the effect of the optimal PID control. The simulation result and the practice show that the control system has a favorable control performance.
