Adaptive Control of Solar Energy Collector Systems
Lemos, João M. / Igreja, José M. / Neves-Silva, Rui
This book describes methods for adaptive control of distributed-collector solar fields: plants that collect solar energy and deliver it in thermal form. Controller design methods are presented that can overcome difficulties found in these type of plants:they are distributed-parameter systems, i.e., systems with dynamics that depend on space as well as time, their dynamics is nonlinear, with a bilinear structure, there is a significant level of...
