Abstract
In this work, a novel temperature-reactivity controller is introduced to rotate control drums based on a chamber temperature signal. It consists of two components: (1) a reactivity-driven proportional controller converting the temperature demand into a reactivity signal, and (2) a temperature-driven proportional-derivative controller which relies on a derivative term to anticipate sudden changes in demand and limit temperature overshoot. A weighting function is proposed to continuously transition from one component to the other.
