Progress in the development and study of new electric energy generation methods, based on direct conversion of heat energy, raises the problem of more effective use of their power characteristics. A self-optimizing control system for an object with a unimodal quality function has been developed. The system consists of the object, a divider, a band-pass filter, an averaging filter, a multiplier, a final control element, an adder, and a search signal generator.
