[0054] In this example, the specific steps of developing a feedback control strategy are as follows:

[0055] S2.1, calculate the deviation between the measured value and the target value of the constant weight bin weight and the mill discharge elevator current respectively;

[0056] In this example, the absolute deviation algorithm is as follows:

[0057] Constant weight bin weight deviation:

[0062] wherein, ΔI represents the current deviation of the mill elevator; I 实测 represents the measured current of the mill elevator; I 目标 represents the preset target current of the mill elevator.

[0063] S2.2, according to the size and direction of the deviation, set the control logic;

[0064] In this example, the control logic is specifically: if the bin weight deviation is positive, that is, the measured bin weight is higher than the target bin weight, it may be necessary to reduce the raw material supply; if the current deviation is positive, that is, the measured current is higher than the target current, it may be necessary to adjust the running speed or load of the elevator.

[0065] S2.3, according to the set control logic, execute the corresponding control action;

[0066] wherein, the corresponding control action includes adjusting the valve opening, changing the motor speed, adjusting the feeding rate.

[0067] S4, using APC optimization technology for automatic switching automatic control in all working conditions;

[0068] In this example, in the S5, the specific steps of the APC optimization technology based on the predictive model control are:

[0069] S3.1, establish a dynamic prediction model reflecting the production process;

[0080] S3.4, the controller adjusts various operating variables in the production process according to the control sequence obtained by optimization to execute the feedback control strategy;

[0081] Specifically, the feedback control strategy is a basic control method, which compares the difference between the actual output of the system and the expected target value (i.e. deviation), and then adjusts the control input according to the deviation to reduce or eliminate the deviation, so that the system output is as close as possible to the expected target. This strategy relies on real-time monitoring and immediate response to system status.

[0082] S3.5, during the control execution process, the controller continuously receives new measurement data, and adjusts the feedback control strategy according to the real-time data and the update of the dynamic prediction model, to cope with changes and disturbances in the production process.

[0083] Specifically, APC optimization technology, i.e. Advanced Process Control, is a technology that applies advanced mathematical models and control algorithms to optimize and adjust the production process in real time. It differs from traditional single-loop control and achieves the improvement of production efficiency, the reduction of energy consumption and the improvement of product quality through multivariable control, nonlinear control and model predictive control strategies.
