Application of dynamic modelling and model‐based predictive control to enhance a cooling tower
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Model predictive control (MPC) applied to improve the operation of cooling towers. Abstract Model predictive control (MPC) differs from traditional feedback control by making predictions within a time horizon, providing better control actions for the process.
