Model Identification of Aspen State-Space Controller with APC Builder

Description

In this teaching module, the model identification tool of Aspen APC Builder is used to generate a state-space model for a fired heater example. A process step-test was conducted to determine the effect of changes to the fuel gas setpoint FGSP on the outlet temperature TO. The model identified is used to generate predictions and demonstrate the quality of the identified model.
