Objectives: This Study tackles how the process of Neuro-fuzzy control that allows observing and controlling the steam pressure and temperature than conventional PI at drum boiler in the power station. It is used to increase the thermal efficiency of the boiler while it has helped to maintain the Turbine not to reach wet vapor which is considered the best method, more accurate compared to the basic conventional method of PI. Methods/Statistical Analysis: The method of hybrid control was used by Neuro-fuzzy in model design simulation by the Matlab program, which led to data training and testing. It is compared with conventional method of PI (Rise Time (sec) – Settling Time (sec) – Overshoot (%) Peak – Peak Time (sec)) by tracking the temperature, steam pressure and to reach the degree of vapor in less time and accuracy. Findings: ANFIS tracks the path of parameters (Temperature – Pressure) more accurately and superior than the traditional method PID and this leads to enhanced, improved and more thermal efficient performance in a drum of the boiler. It shows that the ratio of the overshoot in the PI is 15.68 for the temperature while in the steam for pressure 13.22 bars either in Neuro-fuzzy is in both parameters zero. Thus, ANFIS seems to be more accurate in tracking and shorter time and the absence of the ratio Overshoot compared to the basic conventional method of PI. Application/Improvements: Strategy is presented in the promotion and development of control of drum steam boilers through the simulations model, which was constructed using the hybrid theory and compared to the main theory PI as shown in the results.
