Abstract
An experimental study of two nonlinear model based control methods for the temperature control of a multipurpose batch reactor is presented. A combination of a cascade control structure and suitably chosen cont rollers is shown to provide robust control in the presence of severe m easurement error and model mismatch. Various nonlinear or linear contr ol techniques can be accommodated in the cascade structure. Furthermor e, the theoretical equivalence of GMC and GLC controllers is confirmed experimentally.
