Thereafter, the forecast period is preferably shortened dyna ⁇ mixed, so that it extends from the respective current position of the respective local manipulated variable determiner 16 associated with point 14 to the end of the downstream part of the plant. 3

- the manipulated variables S 'of the global manipulated variable determiner 20 can also be evaluated.
- the global manipulated variable determiner 20 attempts to optimize the evaluation in step S22. For example, the global Stellstedner ⁇ mid 20 attempts to keep the off by the local control variable investigators 16 to be reproduced and expected manipulated variables S within the allowable range to keep as spaced from the control limits and to maintain the expected rates of change within the allowable frame. At the same time, the global manipulated variable determinant 20 takes into account the corresponding limits for the mass flow.

But also a complete recalculation is not designed Schlos ⁇ sen. Regardless of the concrete procedure, however, due to the modification of the manipulated variables S in step S23, the manipulated variables S determined in step S16 are only provisional manipulated variables S.
- step S17 only the local manipulated variable determinants 16 output their manipulated variable S to the corresponding devices 6, 15, 18.
- step S24 which is carried out virtually simultaneously to step S17, the global manipulated variable determiner 20 gives to actuators for the mass flow - for example to rotational ⁇ number regulations 21 for the rolling stands 4 - corresponding
- the procedure described in connection with FIG. 7 is of particular importance if, according to FIG. 3, there are no interstand cooling devices 15. However, it is also possible if the insectstkühleinein- directions 15 are present. Are present regardless of whether the intermediate scaffold cooling means 15 or not, is the global manipulated variable determiner 20 its command values S 'but at a timing at which a plurality of sections 14 (in the upstream part of the system 2 according to Figures 2 and 3 at ⁇ play, the Finishing line).

- the input variables of the global control variable investigator comprise 20 also anticipated conditions of sections 14 of the rolling stock 1, which are not yet run in the vorgeord ⁇ Neten system part second It is single ⁇ Lich required for this to be implemented per Section 14 of the corresponding local control variable investigators 16 ahead of time to initialize and start. If this local control variable investigators 16 further ermit ⁇ telt for not yet been accumulated in the upstream plant section 2 Section 14 of the rolling one was waiting for local control variables, the input variables of the global control variable investigator 20 also these expected manipulated variables and the correspond- ing evaluation parameters include.
- FIG 7 The procedure of FIG 7 is also applicable to a treatment ⁇ system according to FIG 2. Also, it is applicable to a treatmen ⁇ treatment plant of FIG. 4
- the control device 20 for at least one of the state Z of the rolled material 1 beeinflus ⁇ send devices 6, 15, 18, 21 within a further (second) forecasting horizon expected states of the respective device 6, 15, 18, 21 and determines the expected during this forecast horizon states of the respective device 6, 15, 18, 21 in the determination of the manipulated variable determinants 16, 20, to the respective device 6, 15, 18th , 21 'output manipulated variables S, S' into account.
- step S31 the control device 10 determines for at least one of the devices 6, 15, 18, which are influenced by the local manipulated variable determinants 16, their expected states.
- step S32 the control device 10 corrects, if necessary, taking into account the expected states of the respective device 6, 15, 18, the manipulated variables S, which are output from the local manipulated variable detectors 16 to the devices 6, 15, 18.
- the local manipulated variable determiner 16 which acts on said cooling device in the specific working cycle, has acted as relative manipulated variable 80% determined.
- Cooling device 6 subsequent cooling device 6 are to be controlled by the three just mentioned local manipulated variable detectors with 60%, 60% and 40%. Assume further that the cooling devices 6 have the same design and can change their coolant flow from one stroke to the next by a maximum of 25%.
- steps S31 and S32 are not present, only section 6 passing first through the two cooling devices 6 will be correctly identified
- the second section can only be cooled by the first cooling device with 55%, because the first cooling device 6, the flow rate of coolant, starting from 80%, can not throttle faster. The error is therefore 5%.
- the next section is cooled at 30% instead of 20%. The reason is the same: the corresponding cooling device 6 can only throttle the flow of coolant from 55% to 30%.
- steps S41 and S42 may be present after step S16.
- the steps S41 and S42 correspond in content to the steps S31 and S32 of FIG. 8.
- steps S43 and S44 may be inserted after step S23.
- the steps S43 and S44 may also correspond in content to the steps S31 and S32 of FIG.
- the presence of the steps S43 and S44 in addition to the steps S41 and S42 may therefore be particularly useful because the manipulated variables S of the local manipulated variable determinants 16 may have changed due to the step S22. If appropriate, it may furthermore be useful to follow steps S45 and S46 in step S22.
- steps S45 and S46 analogous procedures are taken with respect to the actuators 21 for the mass flow to the steps S31 and S32.
- the manipulated variable determinants 16, 20 determine their respective manipulated variables S, S 'as a rule by optimizing a respective target function. Can be used in the objective function - in addition to the deviation of the forecasted increases article from a corresponding target state - vorzugswei ⁇ se one or enter more of the following sizes:
- the distance of the expected manipulated variable changes of the maximum possible rate of change of the set ⁇ sizes S, S ';
- the treatment plant comprises a furnace, a maximum allowable temperature of Walz ⁇ good 1 and the distance of the actual temperature T of this value;
- the objective function is better achieved (of course), the smaller the deviation of the expected within the prediction horizon ⁇ PH1 to PH5 state and / or the expected on the forecasting horizon En- de PH1 to PH5 state of the corresponding target states. If one or more of the other variables mentioned above are taken into account, the objective function is better solved, the further the output and future manipulated variables S, S 'are away from the setting limits of the respectively controlled devices 6, 15, 18, 21,
- the control device 10 that implements the invention Steuerver go ⁇ , has a high computing power aufwei ⁇ sen. It may be possible to realize this processing power corresponding to the illustration of FIG 10 in a single, unified, not divided into several partial control devices control device 10 which controls the entire treatmen ⁇ treatment plant.
- the control device is divided into several partial control devices 22 10th If such allocation is made, but is vorzugswei ⁇ se each implemented local manipulated variable determiner 16 during the entire run of the respective section 14 of the rolling stock 1 by the treatment plant to a part thereof, and implements control means 22nd
- the respective local control value Determined ⁇ ler 16 is transmitted, for example, in FIG control subsystem shown on the left 11 22 to that in FIG part of control device 22 shown on the right 11, if - for example - the corresponding section 14 of the rolling stock 1 From the upstream part of the plant 2 in the downstream part of the plant 3 passes.
- the furnace as upstream unit part 2 to use to set the final rolling temperature at the outlet of the finishing train as a subordinate part of the plant 3. Only the forecast horizon has to be chosen sufficiently large.
- the input speed v at which the rolling stock 1 enters the finishing train for example, be determined because the finishing mill according to the representation of FIG 5 on the one hand as a further upstream device 7 the roughing and this in turn the continuous casting 8 pre ⁇ assigns are.
- a casting speed of the continuous casting 8 is essentially determined by the solidification behavior of the cast metal and adjustable only within very narrow limits.
- the input speed v of the rolling stock 1 is determined in this case by the more or less fixed predetermined casting speed and the cross-sectional decrease of the rolling stock 1 in the roughing train.
