The operation of the superheated steam temperature system significantly impacts the safety and economy of thermal power units. To ensure its stable operation under large-scale variable load conditions, a modified active disturbance rejection control strategy based on parameter adaptation is proposed. Firstly, a typical superheated steam temperature system model is introduced, and the cascade control structure is applied to the model. Then, on this basis, a modified active disturbance rejection control strategy based on parameter adaptation is proposed, and the parameter tuning method of the modified active disturbance rejection control is introduced. Finally, the control performance of the proposed control strategy under a wide range of variable loads is verified through comparative simulations under nominal working conditions and uncertain working conditions. To further illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed strategy, the method is applied to a certain 660 MW unit in the field. After implementing the method, the fluctuation range of superheated steam temperature on the A and B sides decreased to only 34.0% and 53.0% of the original, respectively, and the fluctuation variance on the A and B sides decreased to only 28.5% and 43.3% of the original, respectively. The above field application results fully demonstrate that the control strategy proposed does not merely remain at the theoretical simulation level, but is a key technical means that can be effectively implemented and effectively solve the problem of superheated steam temperature control in thermal power units.
