Development of Advanced Control System for Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion Plant

Ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) is a methodology for power generation by utilizing the heat energy which is obtained from the temperature difference between warm surface seawater and cold deep seawater. OTEC technology has been expected as environmental-friendly energy source because of the low emission of CO2 from OTEC plant. In this research, advanced control methodologies for OTEC plants are developed. Furthermore, in order to apply to the control system design and numerical simulation of OTEC plant, mathematical models of OTEC plants are also developed based on not only physical laws but also experimental data obtained from actual OTEC experimental plant.

The development of design methodologies for control systems with nonlinearities and research on the teleoperation of robots are also conducted.
