Abstract

See full text

A method for the continuous overall regulation of a single-layer or multi-layer headbox of a paper, board or pulp-draining machine. A physical fluid flow model of a pulp suspension flow discharged from the headbox to be regulated is formed and solved to obtain a simulated flow state based, e.g., on data on the geometry of the headbox and initial and boundary conditions related to the headbox. A target flow state based on the quality requirements of the paper produced from the pulp suspension flow and the costs of operation and runnability of the machine is obtained and a difference between the simulated flow state obtained as the solution of the flow model and the target flow state is determined. This difference constitutes a cost function which is optimized to determine optimal regulation values and set values for instrumentation devices and actuators of the headbox which affect the pulp suspension flow. The optimal regulation and set values are provided to the devices and actuators of the headbox such that the devices and actuators of the headbox may operate at the optimal regulation and set values.
