  1. Performance Assessment of Model Predictive Control R.H. Julien & W.R. Cluett Department of Chemical Engineering & Applied Chemistry University of Toronto M.W. Foley Department of Chemical Engineering University of the West Indies April 28, 2003 U of T

  2. Outline • Model Predictive Control (MPC) • Performance Assessment of Feedback Control Systems • Performance Assessment Benchmark for MPC • Simulation Example • Experimental Results • Summary • Future Work

  3. at Gd(z-1) Ut rt = 0 Yt Gc(z-1) Gp(z-1) - Univariate Feedback System Plant Transfer Function Unmeasured Disturbance z-1 = backshift operator Dt

  4. Minimum Variance Control (MVC) • Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) • Typical Commercial MPC, e.g. DMC Model Predictive Control

  5. LQG Benchmark (Huang & Shah, 1999) Performance Assessment of Feedback Control Systems • Minimum Variance Benchmark (Harris, 1989) -

  6. Controller model assumed in MPC design : Actual process model : Limitations in Assessing MPC  inherent process-model mismatch due to controller structure

  7. MPC vs. LQG benchmark

  8. Cannot normally identify Gp and Gd from routine operating data Can identify Gp (in FIR form) if Gd is known Performance Assessment using Routine Operating Data Basis for Harris index : First b impulse response coefficients of the closed-loop transfer function are feedback invariant  first b impulse response coefficients of disturbance model are always identifiable.

  9. Process identified for controller design: “ old process model ” 2.5 2 1.5 Output Variance 1 0.5 OCOP 0 0 0.05 0.1 0.15 0.2 Variance of Differenced Input Simulation Example
