In this paper, a Model Predictive Control strategy is used to stabilize a temperature profile along a cement rotary kiln minimizing fuel specific consumption. The adopted system architecture is composed of two different optimization layers that interact in order to improve control performances and to meet possibly variable economic goals. The developed cooperation logic between the two layers that...
In this work, the control optimization of a rotary kiln located in a cement plant is described. The need to enhance the efficiency level, to increase the profitability as well as the commitment to meet precise production standards has motivated the adoption of Model Predictive Control techniques. The adopted system architecture is composed of two different optimization layers. A suitable interaction...
Home & Building Automation provides automatic control of indoor environments and its primary goals are the fulfillment of user requirements while realizing significant energy savings. In the present paper, energy saving in home and office buildings is achieved through an efficient management of heat and lighting devices and with the exploitation of renewable resources, like sun (thermal and light...
