Introduction. The article discusses the automatic water level control system in the drum of a steam boiler. In the context of modern requirements for energy installations, the importance of precise and stable control of water level in the drum becomes crucial for ensuring safety and efficiency of their operation. The aim of the article is to develop and evaluate an effective regulation system that eliminates water level fluctuations in the drum caused by changes in feed water flow or superheated steam. An analysis of existing technical solutions for implementing water level control systems in the drum has been conducted. A model of a three-element control system has been proposed, which has gained the most popularity in this direction due to its characteristics. Through analysis and simulation of the system in the Simulink environment, it has been confirmed that the developed system meets all specified requirements and allows for predicting its performance under real conditions. Based on the conducted research, it can be concluded that the proposed system has significant potential for increasing the reliability and efficiency of thermal power plants.Downloads
