COLUMBO Reviews

COLUMBO Description

Closed-loop universal multivariable optimizer for Model Predictive Control's (MPC), performance and quality improvements. You can use Excel files from Aspen Tech or Honeywell RMPCT (Robust Model Predictive Control Technology), or Predict Pro (Emerson) to create and improve the correct models for each MV-CV pair. This new optimization technology is not dependent on step tests, as Honeywell and Aspen tech require. It works in the time domain, is compact and practical, and is easy to use. Model Predictive Controls can have dozens or hundreds of dynamic models. One or more of these models could be wrong. Bad (wrong), Model Predictive Control dynamic models produce a bias between the predicted signal (model prediction error), and the measured signal from the sensor. COLUMBO can help you improve Model Predictive Control models (MPC) with either closed-loop or open-loop data.
