Abstract
The project is focused on research in the areas of methods, algorithms and means for modelling and identification of technological units in process industries, as well as on design and implementation of algorithms for synthesis, analysis and final implementation of control systems to aforementioned processes. Partial methods and algorithms will be designed with high focus on effectiveness of their respective implementation, which will decrease the purchasing and operating costs of control systems for processes with heat and mass transfer that can be described by hybrid models.
