Abstract
High Pressure Steam (HPS) are product of HRSG
(Heat Recovery Steam Generator), then combine from this
third HPS collected in HP Header Steam Turbine as activated
Steam Turbine. HPS with variation condition can effect system
unstable. Combine this third HPS get control as known Inlet
Pressure Control (IPC) before turn in HP steam Turbine in
order to maintain minimum pressure in HP Header and to
prevent unbalance with boiler operation.
PID Control are control algorithm most used in
process industry. On certainty operation condition (like often
happen disturbance on process often changing), this
parameter control must be retuned in order that performance
appropriate with good performance. In order to the process
can be safe, the control system must be reliable, and adaptif
wih process changing.
In this research, the design by combining the process,
and control system, system according to a designed model has
been done. The modeling is based on Piping &
Instrumentation Diagram and data that is needed for this
research that was taken from company. This research doing

iii

with fuzzy logic as tuning adaptive parameter of Kp and Ti,

that its value adaptive with process condition.
The result of design IPC system using Fuzzy-PI Gain
Scheduling algorthm show better response than PI Controller,
although plant parameter was changing, in bringing maintain
minimum pressure to a normal setpoint has 41.4 % of
maximum overshoot, 600 second of settling time and 0.014%
of error steady state.
