A method for regulating the water level in a subcritical boiler drum
By constructing a nonlinear dynamic correction model and temperature compensation in a subcritical boiler, the adaptive adjustment of the feedforward compensation coefficient is achieved, which solves the water level control problem of traditional control schemes under varying operating conditions and improves steady-state accuracy and dynamic response capability.

AI Technical Summary
Traditional three-impulse control schemes cannot adapt to the nonlinear changes in steam-water characteristics under variable load and pressure conditions in subcritical boilers, which leads to overshoot, oscillation, and excessively long adjustment time in the steam drum water level control, resulting in decreased control accuracy.
A nonlinear dynamic correction model with boiler pressure and steam flow rate as inputs is constructed to realize the adaptive adjustment of the feedforward compensation coefficient under operating conditions. Combined with the temperature compensation of feedwater mass flow rate, feedwater valve opening commands are generated.
It improves the steady-state accuracy, dynamic response speed and anti-interference ability of water level control, ensuring the safety and economy of the boiler under complex operating conditions.
