The boiler or steam generator is a widely-used energy conversion equipment across the industry to generate steam for power generation or utility purposes. Recently, there is an increasing demand to operate the thermal power plant boilers in more flexible and agile manner due to renewable energy penetration, excess generation capacity, online trading, etc. Mathematical models representing dynamic behavior...
Developing mathematical model for a process is an important and integral step in control system design process. Mathematical models can be developed from fundamental physical laws (white-box approach), by performing experiments (black-box approach) or a combination of both (gray-box approach). This paper presents a black-box system identification of a laboratory boiler. A mathematical MIMO model matrix...
One-dimensional model of continuous sedimentation process is presented in this paper. The proposed model is based upon 1-dimensional discretization of sedimentation tank into number of layers along its height. A point source and distributed source models are compared. Investigation of concentration at various layers of the tank is carried out. A preliminary tuning and validation of the proposed model...
In this paper, control oriented mean value model of naturally aspirated single cylinder diesel engine is studied. Then suitable single cylinder naturally aspirated diesel engine sub-system/system level models and simulation framework is developed in Matlab-Simulink platform. The same engine model-simulator is tuned and validated using the experimental data collected from the IC engine lab set-up....
This paper focuses on development of PID controller for a single tank level control system using concepts of industrial automation. The idea behind this work is to replace the conventional PID controller available in the level control trainer system with a high end Programmable Logic Controller. The motive behind doing this is to obtain a complete understanding of the changes in the dynamics of the...
Drying is one of the complex and highly energy-consuming process unit operation used in many industry such as textile, paper, chemical, pharmaceuticals, agro and food-processing, sugar, etc. Significant R&D efforts are underway in last more than a decade to enhance dryer technology and operations to enhance its energy efficiency. A mathematical modelling and simulation framework is developed on...
In the recent years UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) having quad-copter helicopter i.e. quad-copter configuration have been receiving increasing attention amongst the global researchers due to its wide-range of applications such as surveillance in military, civilian and disaster management applications. This paper presents our investigations on the modeling, simulation, altitude model validation and...
