Optimal operation of coal conveying systems assembled with crushers ...
The MPC strategy for our coal conveying system is configured as follows. Its operating process is illustrated in Fig. 2, where the control horizon is set to N = 72 as well for the purpose of comparison study. In Fig. 2, m is sample time. Suppose MPC start at m = 0, an open loop optimal operation problem over the control horizon [0,72) is solved to get the optimal solution, [V ‾ i j | 0, T ...
