The Power Plant Boiler Automatic Control Based on PLC

The power plant boiler automatic control system is designed on the basis of Siemens S7-200 in this paper. Based on the introduction of the Siemens S7-200 and the works of the boiler, the total power plant boiler control system is designed in details. Besides the initialized program is designed based on the input and output address of all the switches. The communication program is achieved, including the initialization of the program running parameters, the call of the system subroutine, the calculation of the checksum, the real-time data receiving process, etc. Finally, the heat energy is successfully and automaticly converted to the electricity in the boiler based on the PLC.
