Abstract
An engineering tool and a method for parameterizing a model-based predictive controller for controlling a process-engineering process. A quality determining module for determining the quality of the model, which contains the model-based predictive controller for the behavior of the process-engineering process that is to be controlled, uses measurement data to ascertain errors in various model parameters as model errors. The weighting factors used to weight manipulated variable changes in a quality criterion are determined by a weighting factor module such that manipulated variable changes of a model-based predictive controller designed taking into account model errors are the same as those of a predictive controller designed based on the assumption of an error-free model. This advantageously results in good performance with simultaneously adequate stability of the controller. In addition, the parameterization of the controller which the user needs to perform requires no control-engineering know-how or the performance of complex trials.
