abstract = {Using organic Rankine cycles (ORC) for waste heat recovery
in vehicles promises significant reductions in fuel
consumption. Controlling the organic Rankine cycle, however,
is difficult due to the highly transient exhaust gas
conditions. To tackle this issue, nonlinear model predictive
control (NMPC) has been proposed and approximate NMPC
solutions have been investigated to reduce computational
demand. Herein, we compare (i) an idealized economic NMPC
(eNMPC) scheme as a benchmark to (ii) a NMPC enforcing
minimal superheat and (iii) a PI controller with dynamic
feed-forward term (PI-ff) in a control case study with
highly transient disturbances. We show that, for an ORC
system with supersonic turbine, the economic control problem
can be reduced to a single-input single-output superheat
tracking problem combined with a decoupled steady-state
real-time optimization (RTO) of turbine operation, assuming
an idealized condenser. Our results indicate that the NMPC
enforcing minimal superheat provides good control
performance with negligible losses in average power compared
to the full solution of the economic NMPC problem and that
even PI-ff only results in marginal losses in average power
compared to the model-based controllers.},
