Hi,

I would like some information about the example program can be found in the simulink help menu, called : Regulating Pressure in a Drum Boiler.

I would be interested about the type of boiler is modelled and the origin of the used equations (steam tables) within the model. Is there a reference or a bibliography to those equations?

Thanks for any suggestions!

Regards,

Balazs

Hi Balazs -

I checked around with some of my coworkers and found:

<snip>
The Boiler model is a slight variation on the 2-state model described in "Drum-Boiler Dynamics, K. Astrom, R. Bell, Automatica, 36, pp. 363--378, March 2000".

The steam tables were taken from the web, originally, here, http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/28_101.html, but it looks like they have moved to here http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/saturated-steam-properties-d_101.html.
