Abstract:
A method to control thermal processes, characterized in that measuring devices measure at least two process parameters at least once within a time interval in which a parameter change occurs that affects the process sequence, the time interval exceeding the shortest time interval within which a change of a process parameter occurs, and in that the shortest time interval within which a change of a process parameter occurs is empirically determined, in that the recorded process parameters are fed into a control unit, the control unit regulating the process parameters in the thermal process by means of quantities obtained from process parameter measurements, in that the control unit comprises a classificator which consolidates the parameters measured in a time interval to classes and summarizes them in situation actual values, in that the control unit comprises a correlator which correlates the situation actual values summarized in the classificator with situation set values, and in that input quantities are regulated by means of reference values obtained from the correlation of the situation actual values and the situation set values.
