Abstract
El proyecto Camisea descubierto en la década del 80 tuvo que esperar casi 20 años
para el inicio de su operación comercial 2004, arribando por primera vez a Lima y
Callao, y propagándose en la actualidad a las regiones norte y sur de nuestro país,
así como al extranjero mediando buques de gas natural licuado.
Con los años gracias a Camisea ha variado la matriz eléctrica nacional, siendo este
yacimiento desde el 2011 fuente de más del 30% de energía eléctrica producida y
consumida por el Perú, generando trabajo, y mejores condiciones de vida de
millones de peruanos.
Se estudia en este trabajo la problemática del calentamiento de gas que
precisamente es entregado a una generadora eléctrica, el cual por sus niveles de
presión recibida requiere una reducción de presión que infiere inherentemente a una
reducción de temperatura por el efecto Joule-Thompson, razón por la cual es
necesario controlar esta variable de temperatura a niveles óptimos de operación, en
la estación de regulación y medición de gas natural (ERM).
Se identificó el sistema de calentamiento de gas natural el cual tiene un tiempo de
establecimiento muy alto a lazo abierto (361 minutos) que puede controlarse en lazo
cerrado usando un controlador GPC sin restricciones (17 minutos).
Se diseño una nueva estructura teórica del control predictivo basado en modelo de
forma ampliada que permite explicar cómo los horizontes de predicción y control
interactúan entre el modelo, optimizador, y la planta.
Se propone un nuevo método de sintonización de todos los parámetros de un
controlador GPC logrando optimizar la respuesta de la planta.
Se desarrolla analíticamente el método de implementación del controlador GPC sin
restricciones en un PLC, logrando definir las estrategias y consideraciones de
programación que se deben seguir para su implementación en un futuro trabajo a
corto plazo de la solución. Ante esto se concluye que la estrategia de control
avanzado es implementable en un PLC comercial.
The Camisea project discovered in the 1980s had to wait almost 20 years for the start of its commercial operation in 2004, reaching Lima and Callao for the first time, and currently extending to the northern and southern regions of our country, as well as the abroad through liquefied natural gas vessels. Over the years, thanks to Camisea, the national electrical matrix has changed, since 2011 this deposit has been the source of more than 30% of the electrical energy produced and consumed by Peru, generating work and better living conditions for millions of Peruvians. This thesis studies the problem of gas heating that is precisely delivered to an electric generator, which due to its received pressure levels requires a pressure reduction that inherently infers a temperature reduction due to the Joule-Thompson effect, reason why which is necessary to control this temperature variable at optimal levels of operation, in the natural gas regulation and measurement station (ERM). The natural gas heating system was identified which has a very high open-loop settling time (361 minutes) that can be controlled in closed-loop using a GPC controller without restrictions (17 minutes). A new theoretical structure of model-based predictive control was designed in an expanded way that allows explaining how the prediction and control horizons interact between the model, the optimizer, and the plant. A new method of tuning of all the parameters of a GPC controller is proposed, optimizing the response of the plant. The implementation method of the GPC controller without restrictions in a PLC is analytically developed, managing to define the strategies and programming considerations that must be followed for its implementation in a future short-term work of the solution. Given this, it is concluded that the advanced control strategy can be implemented in a commercial PLC.
