Controllability Analysis of Coal Mill Pulverizer Model

The most essential need for today’s human life apart from food, air and water is electricity. Our life gets stuck if there is a cut-off for a few hours. The Electricity is produced in various types of power plants. Our interest is to study the process of coal-fired power plants. Coal pulverizer or coal mill play a very important role in the performance and reliability of any sub-critical or super critical coal-based power plant. The coal mill plays a crucial role in the thermal power generation process, where coal is ground into a fine powder to be used as fuel in boilers. Over the years, the modeling of coal mills has undergone significant evolution, driven by advancements in mathematical modeling techniques, computational capabilities, and a deeper understanding of the complex physical and chemical processes involved. This article discussed the controllability of coal mill pulverizer process. Controllability of this process is obtained through modern control theory.
