Abstract

See full text

A plurality of temperature adjusters each independently include a control loop. A manipulated variable calculator is configured to give manipulated variables to the respective temperature adjusters and includes a reference model output generator configured to provide a reference model as a response output for reaching a temperature setpoint when a first control loop having a slowest response speed among the control loops is defined to have a 100% manipulated variable. The reference model output generator includes: a simulator configured to determine a manipulated variable pattern by conducting successive search of a switching time; and a reference model obtained from a response in which, among the plurality of control loops, the first control loop having the slowest response speed is defined to have the 100% manipulated variable, and the rest of the plurality of control loops are controlled to follow the first control loop.
