Project description
 

This project aims to verify the applicability of advanced control strategies for steam/water loop in large scale ships. Hence, PID autotuning method and model predictive control are analysed. The ultimate goal of this project is to design a suitable control strategy for this complex system and to achieve satisfactory performance.
