OPTIMIZATION OF AUTOMATIC SPEED CONTROL OF SINTER MACHINE DEPENDING ON SEASON

Abstract

The paper presents the improvement of the mathematical model that regulates automatic speed control algorithm based on the temperature variation along the sintering bed. Because the sintering process involve complex chemical reaction of the raw material, the environmental condition are important and the algorithm was improved by adding new coefficients extracted from two time periods data-sets. Anyway, because the implementation is possible to be done when the entire process is stopped and sintering machine is on hold, an estimators parameters was proposed to be implemented two times per year, as winter and summer parameters.
