State and Parameter Estimation of a CSTR. 15th Latinamerican Control Conference.http://congreso.pucp.edu.pe/clca-2012/pfjueves.htmlhttp://hdl.handle.net/11117/3275In the continuation of authors’ studies on estimation and control for Continuous Stirred-Tank Reactors (CSTR), a new structure to estimate the concentration of reactive state, the global heat transfer coefficient, and the heat of reaction parameters is proposed here. This scheme consist of an Observer Based Estimator (OBE) connected in cascade with a High Order Sliding Mode Observer (HOSMO). The OBE estimates the global heat transfer coefficient, and the HOSMO estimates the heat of reaction, and the concentration of reactive. Numerical simulations show that the whole structure presents a good performance in presence of parametric variations, which often are presented in chemical processes.engState ObserversChemical Processinfo:eu-repo/semantics/conferencePaper
