Summary:The present invention relates generally to the field of controlling temperature and more particularly to the improvement of temperature dynamic response using dynamic feedforward compensation. An apparatus for controlling a temperature of a thermal load comprises: a dynamic compensator for calculating a heater command as a function of a user input signal without using a temperature measurement; and a heater for controlling temperature of the thermal load by applying heat in response to the said heater command.
