Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of tobacco processing, and in particular to a temperature control method, system, electronic equipment and medium for a tobacco drying machine. Background Art

[0002] The traditional tobacco drying machine temperature control method mainly relies on the detection results of the outlet tobacco moisture content. That is, the outlet tobacco moisture content is compared with the preset value. If the outlet moisture content is smaller than the preset value, the tobacco drying machine temperature is reduced, otherwise the tobacco drying machine temperature is increased.

[0003] However, when the moisture content, flow rate, or physical properties of the incoming tobacco change, the system may be unable to adjust in time, resulting in unstable tobacco quality. Furthermore, because the drying process involves chemical reactions that are sensitive to temperature and time, traditional control methods may not be able to accurately predict and regulate these reactions, thus affecting the final quality of the tobacco.

[0069] The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that similar or identical parts in the drawings or descriptions are numbered the same. Implementations not shown or described in the drawings are known to those of ordinary skill in the art. In the description of this application, the terms "first," "second," etc. are used solely to distinguish descriptions and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0070] An embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device including a processing module and a storage module. The storage module stores a computer program, and when the computer program is executed by the processing module, the electronic device can perform corresponding steps in the following method for controlling the temperature of a tofu drying machine.

[0071] Please refer to Figure 1 The present application also provides a method for controlling the temperature of a tofu drying machine. The method for controlling the temperature of a tofu drying machine may include the following steps:

[0072] S110, collecting the current inlet moisture, current outlet temperature, and current wall temperature of the tobacco at the tobacco drying machine, and obtaining a predicted value of the tobacco outlet temperature at the next moment based on a prediction model;

[0073] S120, obtaining a preset target tobacco quality evaluation value and a current tobacco flow rate, and obtaining a reference value of the tobacco outlet temperature based on the trained deep learning model;

[0074] S130, inputting the predicted value of the cut tobacco outlet temperature and the reference value of the cut tobacco outlet temperature into the MPC algorithm model, and outputting the cylinder wall temperature adjustment value;

[0075] S140: Adjust the temperature of the tofu drying machine based on the cylinder wall temperature adjustment amount.

[0076] The following will describe in detail the various steps of the temperature control method of the tofu drying machine, as follows:

[0077] In S110, the moisture content of incoming cut tobacco can be measured using a moisture meter. Specifically, a moisture meter can be installed on the electronic scale belt before drying to measure and collect the moisture content of the cut tobacco in real time. This method directly and accurately obtains the moisture content of the cut tobacco, providing key data for subsequent prediction models.

[0078] The tobacco flow rate can be collected using an electronic belt scale.

[0079] The cylinder wall temperature can be collected using a temperature sensor. The temperature sensor can be installed on the cylinder wall condensate discharge pipe to measure and collect cylinder wall temperature data in real time.

[0080] In S110, the prediction model is implemented based on a mathematical algorithm and is used to output a predicted value of the tobacco outlet temperature based on the inlet tobacco moisture, tobacco flow rate and barrel wall temperature as input values. In this embodiment, the prediction model can be expressed as:

[0081] The prediction model is:

[0082] T out (k1+1)=a·T out (k1)+b·T wall(k1)+c·W in (k1)

[0083] Among them, T out (k1+1) is the predicted value of tobacco outlet temperature at the next moment;

[0084] T out (k1) is the current tobacco outlet temperature;

[0085] T wall (k1) is the current cylinder wall temperature;

[0086] W in (k1) is the current moisture content of the tobacco;

[0087] a, b, c are all model parameters.

[0088] Among them, a, b, c can represent T respectively out (k1), T wall (k1) and W in The weight value of (k1) and the specific values of a, b, and c can be obtained based on actual bench experiments.

[0089] In S120, the deep learning model can be a neural network model, an LSTM model, etc. When using the deep learning model, the collected preset target tobacco quality evaluation value, the current tobacco flow rate, the current inlet tobacco moisture and the current barrel wall temperature are used as input to obtain the benchmark value of the tobacco outlet temperature.

[0090] In this embodiment, the method for training the deep learning model is:

[0091] Initializing the deep learning model;

[0092] Based on the training data, the initialized deep learning model is trained to obtain a trained deep learning model, wherein the training data includes independent variable data and corresponding dependent variable data, the independent variable data includes training tobacco moisture, training tobacco flow, training barrel wall temperature and training tobacco outlet temperature, and the dependent variable data includes training tobacco quality evaluation value.

[0093] Among them, training data can come from the following aspects:

[0094] 1. Public Datasets: Many research institutions and companies publicly release the datasets they collect or organize for use by other researchers and developers. These datasets typically contain a large number of samples and cover a wide range of fields. In the tobacco industry, there may also be relevant public datasets that include various parameters and quality evaluation values during the tobacco production process.

[0095] 2. Internal company data: Tobacco companies typically collect extensive data during the production process, including tobacco moisture, flow rate, barrel wall temperature, and outlet temperature. This data can be directly used to train deep learning models. Companies may also have evaluation data on tobacco quality, such as expert scoring or quality testing results, which can serve as dependent variable data.

[0096] 3. Synthetic Data: In some cases, to increase the diversity and quantity of training data, synthetic data can be generated through computer programs. This data can be generated based on known physical or statistical models to simulate the data distribution in real-world scenarios. However, it is important to note that synthetic data should be as close to real data as possible to ensure model accuracy.

[0097] 4. Experimental Data: To obtain data under specific conditions, experiments can be conducted and relevant data collected. For example, tobacco outlet temperature and quality evaluation values can be recorded under different conditions of tobacco moisture, flow rate, and barrel wall temperature. This data can be used to train deep learning models and help them learn relationships under different conditions.

[0098] Therefore, after training the deep learning model, it will determine the relationship between the dependent and independent variables. Based on the preset target cut tobacco quality evaluation value, a reference value for the cut tobacco outlet temperature is obtained. In this embodiment, the reference value for the cut tobacco outlet temperature refers to a standard or reference value that the outlet temperature of the cut tobacco after being processed by the cut tobacco drying machine should reach under specific production conditions. In this embodiment, by calculating the reference value for the cut tobacco outlet temperature and using it as a standard, the adjustment amount of the drum wall temperature is limited, which is conducive to improving the quality of the cut tobacco.

[0099] In this embodiment, the target tobacco quality evaluation value is a comprehensive reflection of the sensory qualities (such as aroma, pungency, and odor) and physical qualities (such as moisture content, fill value, and whole-cut percentage) that the tobacco should achieve after drying. This evaluation value provides a benchmark for the MPC (Model Predictive Control) algorithm, enabling the system to adjust the barrel wall temperature to ensure that the tobacco maintains both sensory comfort and physical processing properties (such as fill capacity and processing resistance) during the drying process.

[0100] In this embodiment, the calculation of the target tobacco quality evaluation value requires the following parameters:

[0101] Physical quality parameters, including outlet moisture content (to be controlled within 12.0% to 14.0% (drum dryer) or a narrower range (such as ±0.1% tolerance)); filling value (cm 3 / g), which reflects the expansion effect of tobacco shreds and directly affects the weight and draw resistance of a single cigarette; whole shred rate and broken shred rate: the whole shred rate must be ≥ the standard value, and the broken shred rate must be ≤2.0%.

[0102] Sensory quality parameters include: pungency (the degree of improvement after high-temperature treatment to volatilize free nicotine and ammonia); smoke removal effect (a quantitative evaluation of smoke permeability enhancement); aroma style (e.g., the amount of browning reaction products between sugars and amino acids);

[0103] In this embodiment, the sensory quality parameters can be assigned values to each sensory quality parameter using an assignment method, for example, 9 points: excellent (such as "sufficient aroma"), 5 points: medium (such as "moderate stimulation"), and 1 point: extremely poor (such as "heavy smell").

[0104] Process stability parameters include the dry head and dry tail rate: the proportion of low-quality tobacco produced during abnormal stages (such as the startup period after preheating) must be ≤0.3% to 0.6%; temperature fluctuation: the tolerance range is usually ±3°C.

[0105] In this embodiment, the target cut tobacco quality evaluation value can be calculated using the following method.

[0106] Q = w1·f (moisture content) + w2·f (filling value) + w3·f (whole yarn rate) + w4·f (sensory score)

[0107] Among them, w1, w2, w3, and w4 are weight coefficients, and f(·) is the standardization or normalization function of each parameter.

[0108] In this embodiment, the target cut tobacco quality evaluation value is used as a standard and a reference value is obtained based on a deep learning model.

[0109] In S130, the MPC algorithm (Model Predictive Control) uses a mathematical model of the system to predict future states and optimize control decisions based on these predictions. It aims to achieve control objectives by optimizing system behavior over a period of time in the future.

[0110] The MPC algorithm establishes a mathematical model of the controlled object, which can be a state space model, a transfer function, etc. This model is used to predict the future behavior of the system. The objective function of the mathematical model in this embodiment can be expressed as:

[0111]

[0112] Among them, N p Represents the prediction time domain, the system predicts the future N at each step p Outlet temperature change in a time step (e.g., predict the next 30 seconds);

[0113] represents the predicted value of the tobacco outlet temperature;

[0114] T setIndicates the reference value of the outlet temperature of the cut tobacco;

[0115] N c Represents the control time domain, and calculates the future N at each step c The control amount is adjusted in time steps (usually N c ≤N p );

[0116] k2 represents the time;

[0117] i represents step;

[0118] Δu(k2+i) represents the cylinder wall temperature adjustment in step i at time k2;

[0119] represents the predicted value of tobacco outlet temperature at step i at time k2;

[0120] Q represents the weight of Δu(k2+i).

[0121] The essence of the objective function mentioned above is to achieve a balance between temperature tracking accuracy and control action smoothness within the prediction time domain. The formula can be broken down into two parts:

[0122] Represents the tracking error term, which makes the predicted tobacco outlet temperature As close to the reference value T as possible set .

[0123] It represents the penalty term for the control variable change, which limits the sharp fluctuation of the cylinder wall temperature adjustment amount Δu and avoids frequent operation of the actuator.

[0124] Optimization goal: Find the optimal balance between the weights Q and R.

[0125] In this embodiment, the operating logic of the above objective function in the control of the tofu drying machine can be:

[0126] 1. Rolling Optimization: In each control cycle k2, MPC performs the following steps:

[0127] Based on the current state (inlet moisture, cylinder wall temperature, etc.) and the prediction model, the future N p The outlet temperature prediction sequence of the step;

[0128] In N c In the step control time domain, solve the above objective function and obtain the optimal control sequence Δu(k2), Δu(k2+1),..., Δu(k2+N c -1);

[0129] Only the first step control amount Δu(k2) is implemented and the optimization is repeated in the next cycle.

[0130] 2. Dynamic constraint processing (implicit in the objective function):

[0131] Temperature limit: For example, the cylinder wall temperature must not exceed the upper limit of the material tolerance (such as 180°C);

[0132] Adjustment rate limit: for example, single-step temperature adjustment amount |Δu|≤2℃.

[0133] Flexible constraints: implemented indirectly through weights Q and R, rather than explicit hard constraints.

[0134] In this example, Q represents the weight matrix for tracking error, reflecting the importance of temperature tracking. As Q increases, the system adjusts the temperature more aggressively to approach the setpoint. R represents the weight matrix for control variable changes, reflecting the focus on actuator energy consumption or wear. As R increases, the system tends to be more conservative.

[0135] In this embodiment, the technical effects of using the MPC (Model Predictive Control) algorithm model are mainly reflected in the following aspects:

[0136] 1. Improved predictability and control accuracy: The MPC algorithm model collects the current state of the tobacco dryer (such as inlet tobacco moisture, current tobacco outlet temperature, and current drum wall temperature) and uses a predictive model to predict the tobacco outlet temperature at the next moment. This predictive control strategy enables the system to make adjustments in advance, avoiding the control inaccuracies caused by lag in traditional control methods. Furthermore, the MPC algorithm model, based on a rolling optimization strategy, re-predicts and optimizes within each control cycle, ensuring accurate and real-time control.

[0137] 2. Optimize production parameters and improve product quality: In step S120, the system obtains the preset target tobacco quality evaluation value and the current tobacco flow rate. Based on the trained deep learning model, it determines a baseline value for the tobacco outlet temperature. This baseline value reflects the tobacco outlet temperature required to achieve the target quality. After inputting the predicted and baseline values into the MPC algorithm model, the model comprehensively considers multiple factors and calculates the optimal barrel wall temperature adjustment to optimize production parameters and ensure that the tobacco outlet temperature remains within an appropriate range, thereby improving product quality.

[0138] 3. Enhanced system robustness and adaptability: The MPC algorithm model's ability to handle multiple variables and constraints makes it exceptionally effective in complex systems. In the tobacco drying machine temperature control system, the MPC algorithm comprehensively considers multiple influencing factors, such as inlet tobacco moisture, tobacco flow rate, and drum wall temperature, and flexibly adjusts based on actual conditions. This flexibility enables the system to better cope with various changes and uncertainties in the production process, enhancing its robustness and adaptability.

[0139] 4. Intelligent control improves production efficiency: Combining a deep learning model with the MPC algorithm model enables more intelligent control. The deep learning model predicts a baseline value for cut tobacco outlet temperature, providing accurate prediction information for the MPC algorithm. The MPC algorithm then performs rolling optimization based on the predicted and baseline values, outputting the barrel wall temperature adjustment. This intelligent control approach enables the system to more effectively address various production challenges and improve production efficiency.

[0140] In S140, if Figure 2 As shown, S140 may specifically include the following steps:

[0141] S141: Sending the cylinder wall temperature adjustment value to the PID controller;

[0142] S142: The PID controller obtains a proportional coefficient, an integral coefficient, and a differential coefficient based on the cylinder wall temperature adjustment amount;

[0143] S143: The PID controller obtains an opening value based on a proportional coefficient, an integral coefficient, and a differential coefficient, and controls the valve opening of the actuator to the opening value.

[0144] The PID controller obtains a proportional coefficient, an integral coefficient, and a differential coefficient based on the cylinder wall temperature adjustment amount, including:

[0145] The cylinder wall temperature adjustment amount is transferred to the PID parameter algorithm model to obtain the proportional coefficient, integral coefficient and differential coefficient. The PID parameter algorithm model is:

[0146] K p =K p0 +α·|Δu(k2+i)|

[0147] Among them: K p represents the proportionality coefficient;

[0148] K p0 Represents the initialization scale factor;

[0149] α represents the sensitivity coefficient of the proportional term;

[0150] Δu represents the cylinder wall temperature adjustment amount;

[0151]

[0152] Where: T i represents the integral coefficient;

[0153] T i0 Represents the initialized integral coefficient;

[0154] β represents the integral adaptation coefficient;

[0155] Δu(k2+i) represents the cylinder wall temperature adjustment in step i at time k2;

[0156]

[0157] Among them, T d represents the differential coefficient;

[0158] T d0 Represents the initialized differential coefficient;

[0159] γ represents the differential sensitivity coefficient.

[0160] In this embodiment, the valve in S143 may be a fuel valve, an air intake valve, a steam valve, etc.

[0161] For airflow tobacco drying machines, PID mainly controls the oil-gas ratio valve (fuel valve, air intake valve), taking into account both combustion efficiency and temperature stability; for drum tobacco drying machines: PID adjusts the steam valve and moisture exhaust valve, and controls the moisture content of tobacco by synergistically controlling the drum wall temperature and the hot air temperature.

[0162] In this embodiment, after obtaining the proportional coefficient, integral coefficient and differential coefficient, the PID controller outputs a control signal based on the proportional coefficient, integral coefficient and differential coefficient. After receiving the control signal, the actuator converts the control signal into a valve opening instruction, thereby adjusting the valve opening.

The processing module is configured to execute the executable modules stored in the storage module, such as the software function modules and computer programs included in the tow-bread drying machine temperature control system.

[0168] The control module 400 is configured to adjust the temperature of the tofu drying machine based on the drum wall temperature adjustment amount.

[0169] The first calculation module 100 calculates the predicted value of the tobacco outlet temperature based on the following method.

[0170] The moisture content, flow rate and wall temperature of the cut tobacco are input into a prediction model, which outputs a predicted value of the cut tobacco outlet temperature. The prediction model is:

[0172] Among them, T out (k1+1) is the predicted value of tobacco outlet temperature;

[0173] T out (k1) is the actual tobacco outlet temperature;

[0174] T wall (k1) is the current cylinder wall temperature;
