A Procedure for Determination of Reduced Polytopic Models Based on Robust Multi-Model Representation of Large Dimensions

Abstract

This study entails a meticulous examination of the dynamic characteristics exhibited by the continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) with the objective of establishing a robust multi-model representation that accurately captures the reactor behavior across its operational range. To achieve this, a methodology is presented, which incorporates parameter variations as uncertainties within the model. The result is a concise polytopic representation, reduced to its vertices, that effectively captures the system dynamics and encompasses the range of parameter uncertainties.
