Abstract
This paper describes a fuel blending algorithm based on artificial intelligence and model predictive control. A gas-fired power plant was modeled using physical laws and on-site measurements. A neural network is used to calculate the methane number of the fuel and determine the fuel blending ratio limits so that the methane number is within the limits specified by the engine manufacturer. A model predictive controller adjusts the final blending ratio to meet safety requirements and minimize operating costs. The algorithm was tested in simulations with different scenarios and a reduction in both the operating costs and amount of flaring was observed.
