Flotation Height Prediction under Stable and Vibration States in Air Cushion Furnace Based on Hard Division Method

الملخص EN

Air cushion furnace is indispensable equipment for the production of high quality strip, and it is significant to national economy.

The flotation height is a key factor to the quality and efficiency of the product.

However, the current prediction models can merely predict the flotation height of strip in air cushion furnace at single working state.

The precision of prediction model is inaccurate at the circumstance of low flotation height.

To solve the above problem, firstly, this paper proposes a framework which can predict the flotation height of strip under both stable and vibration states.

The framework is composed of the hard division model and prediction model.

Secondly, a hard division method is proposed based on clustering which combines stacked denoising autoencoder and floating process knowledge.

Thirdly, a parallel hybrid flotation height prediction model is proposed, which can provide desirable prediction results at the circumstance of low flotation height.

Finally, the LSSVR model is used to predict the maximum and minimum flotation height of strip at vibration state.

The experimental results show that the framework can accurately divide the stable and vibration states of the strip and can accurately predict the flotation height of the strip under the stable and vibration states.

The research contents of this paper lay an important theoretical foundation for the precise process control in air cushion furnace.
