Case Study

Reformer duty control tuning

In this case study the client wanted a furnace duty controller controlling an average temperature. The designed and optimally tuned duty controller shows a largely improved temperature control. Disturbance rejection was improved drastically as well (e.g. burner gas pressure disturbances).


In addition to this feedback control, a feedforward component was implemented as well for even better control.

Learn in this case study:

  • How AptiTune can improve the operations of a reformer/furnace
  • The workflow used by AptiTune to compute the proper PID settings
  • How AptiTune can compute PID settings that result in improved temperature control.
