In modern industry, data has become an indispensible resource for the whole process of production and business. For the optimization of the control performance, the data-driven PID controller is introduced in this paper. Based on the data-driven control law, the parameters of the PID controller will be renewed automatically by using the real and historical input/output data of the plant. And then, the control action can be update in real time. From the perspective of engineering applications, the data-driven PID controller is researched as the outer loop controller in the superheated steam temperature cascade control system of fossil fuel power generation units. The simulation results show that the data-driven PID controller is suitable for the superheated steam temperature control, and its performance is better than that of the neural network PID controller.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
