  • Model predictive controller solution analysis process
    Patent number: 7949417
    Abstract: The solution from a multivariable predictive controller (MPC) is analyzed and described by providing quantitative input to operators regarding the effect of changing controller limits on the MPC controller solution. This information allows a rapid operator response to changes and more optimal process operation.
    Type: Grant
