In solar parabolic-trough plants, the use of Model Predictive Control (MPC) increases the
output thermal power. However, MPC has the disadvantage of a high computational …

This article describes the application of a feedback linearization technique for control of a
distributed solar collector field using the energy from solar radiation to heat a fluid. The …

This work presents the application of fuzzy predictive control to a solar power plant. The
proposed predictive controller uses fuzzy characterization of goals and constraints, based …

In this article, two different state space models for a distributed solar collector field have
been extracted. Design of an Iterative Extended Kalman Filter (IEKF) and an appropriate …

This study improves a recently proposed gain scheduling predictive control strategy for the
ACUREX solar collector field at the Plataforma Solar de Almería, Spain. Measured …

This work presents a new switching control procedure that has been chosen to deal with the
changes in plant dynamics. Several control systems composed of IMC-based PID controllers …

En este artículo se presenta una visión general sobre diferentes algoritmos básicos de
control, aplicados durante los últimos veinticinco años al control de un campo de colectores …

This work proposes an indirect adaptive nonlinear control scheme based on a recurrent
neural network and the output regulation theory. The neural model is first trained off-line …
