Popis: Aluminum alloy is widely used in transportation, catering, industry, sports, health and other fields, because of their excellent high specific strength and corrosion resistance. Aluminum industry has been an important mainstay industry of a national economy. In the process of electrolytic aluminum, the superheat degree is a very important production target. When an electrolysis cell is working in the appropriate superheat degree state, the life of cell is prolonged and the amounts of aluminum released will enhanced. However, to measure the superheat degree is very difficult and the measured results cannot timely feedback to the process of production. To address the problem, a soft sensing prediction model of superheat degree is proposed in this paper, in which some new concepts such as the decay function of data weight, the credibility of a rule and the rule tree are introduced. Basically speaking, the processing of the soft sensing prediction model is mainly based on the rough set data analysis method and a tree data structure. The static rules are obtained from the history data by using the attribute reduction and value reduction method in the rough sets. The rule tree is updated timely based on the incremental data set accordingly. The effectiveness of the proposed model is verified with the aluminum production data provided by Shandong Weiqiao Aluminum Electrolysis limited company in China.
