Abstract :
Steam production and electric power system stability are often competing interests in an industrial refinery. Optimal control of steam production is required to meet plant process operating requirements, and electrical grid stability is required to prevent power system blackouts. For many industrial plants connected to a utility grid, both operating criteria cannot be met simultaneously, placing the power system in serious jeopardy of a blackout.
