METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING THE OPERATION OF THE SHORT CIRCULATION OF A PAPER, PAPERBOARD OR THE LIKE PRODUCTION MACHINE

摘要

The present invention relates to a method of and an apparatus for controlling the operation of the short circulation of a paper, paper board or the like production machine. The method and apparatus according to the invention are especially preferably suitable for use in the approach system, i.e. so-called short circulation, of said production machines for regulating the headbox feed pressure. A characteristic feature of the method and apparatus according to the invention is that at a suitable location in the approach system of said production machine there is arranged a controllable parallel flow, by means of which at least one flow in the approach system is regulated so that the pressure in the headbox remains essentially constant.
