The single impulse water level automatic control system is the simplest form of control; it adjusts the opening degree of the feedwater control valve based on the deviation in the drum water level. The main drawback of the single impulse water level control method is that sudden changes in evaporation rate or steam pressure cause rapid changes in the steam content in the boiler water, resulting in an artificial water level in the boiler drum and leading to incorrect operation of the feedwater control valve. Therefore, single impulse control is generally used in small-capacity boilers with relatively stable loads. The three-impulse water level automatic control system is a relatively sophisticated control method; in this system, in addition to the drum water level signal H, there are also the steam flow rate D and the feedwater flow rate G. The drum level is the main signal ; The steam flow rate serves as a feedforward signal; thanks to this feedforward signal, it is possible to effectively prevent incorrect operation of the regulator caused by \"false water levels\", thereby improving the regulation quality under disturbances in evaporation rate or steam pressure ; The feedwater flow rate signal is a feedback signal from the medium; it enables the suppression of changes in the feedwater volume caused by variations in feedwater pressure, thus maintaining a stable feedwater flow rate. Moreover, there is no need to wait for fluctuations in water level before making adjustments, which ensures high quality of regulation. The three-impulse automatic control system takes into account both the principle of balancing steam flow and feedwater flow, as well as the magnitude of the water level deviation. It is capable of overcoming the effects of \"false water levels\" and addressing disturbances in feedwater flow; it is therefore the water level control system commonly used in large-capacity boilers today.
