INVARIANT SYSTEM OF THE STEAM-DRUM BOILER FEED AUTOMATIC REGULATION by G. T. Kulakov, A. N. Kukhorenko

“…At the same time, the indicator of the latter should be less than the control-action value of the typical threeelement control of the feed-regulation system as this directly links to the boiler equipment safety, the drum metal and the feed-water economizer longevity. For removal of this shortcoming, the paper proposes to form in parallel to the real inertial region of the controlled member its dynamic simulation which allows separating the equivalent external disturbance without having to measure it. …”
