摘要：
One of the important operations in nuclear power plants is power control during load following in which many robust constraints on both input and measured variables must be satisfied. This paper proposes a robust nonlinear model predictive control for the load-following operation problem by considering some robust constraints on both input and output variables. The controller imposes restricted state constraints on the predicted trajectory during optimization which guarantees robust satisfaction of state constraints without restoring to a min-max optimization problem. Simulation results show that the proposed controller for the load-following operation is quite effective while the constraints are robustly kept satisfied. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
