Notes:
Chawla, et al. (2) recently described a new SISO control algorithm called the Conservative Model Based Control (CMBC). In this paper, we assess the feasibility of implementing CMBC as a multiloop controller on a simulated reactor used for the polymerization of methyl methacrylate. Both servo and regulatory behavior of the controller are studied. Despite the non-linearities and coupling between the two controlled variables, the easy-to-implement CMBC algorithm has been shown to give good control performance.
