Abstract

Model Predictive Control (MPC) techniques are considered for industrial centrifugal compression systems with nonlinear dynamics. We consider the torque provided by an external drive and a recycle valve as control actuators for the system. Closed-loop stability in the presence of control constraints is studied via the contractive control Lyapunov function method. We solve the nonlinear MPC problem to assess a performance benchmark, and then design a Sequential Quadratic Programming (SQP) MPC approach which is computationally affordable. We show in several numerical simulations based on a realistic centrifugal compressor case study that the SQP MPC technique outperforms the classic linearized MPC and performs similarly to the nonlinear MPC approach.
