Results of applying quadratic optimal control synthesis techniques to a model of a fluid catalytic cracker are presented. The controllers synthesized include optimal state vector feedback and fixed form feedback configurations of less than the full state measurements. Comparisons of the performance of these controllers are obtained. The results demonstrate that quadratic optimal control theory and...
