Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2020255092A1] Systems and methods iteratively solve a fired-systems model of the process heater based on fuel information, a target heat release of the plurality of burners, ambient air information, and available airflow at each of the plurality of burners to identify optimized burner air register settings to achieve a target global excess oxygen level to be sensed by the oxygen sensor. The optimized burner air register settings may be output to a heater controller of the process heater for control of the process heater.
