After being aware of the high demand of vapor compression refrigeration systems for the conservation of agri-food and hydrobiological products and the high economic costs that the use of these systems produces, both academia and industry have carried out studies that have allowed them to develop advanced technologies in order to produce savings in energy consumption. These advances lie in the production...
This paper presents the applications of a Nonlinear Model Predictive Controller (NMPC), this nonlinear controller uses the Nonlinear Extended Prediction Self-Adaptive Controller (NEPSAC), furthermore uses the Generalized Model Predictive Control (GPC) and PID to the control of a Dryer Plant of Cocoa Beans. It shows characteristics of the plant, and it realized the identification for know their dynamic...
This paper presents an alternative technique for the artificial drying of cocoa. The proposal is based on the use of a drying cylindrical and rotating type, the same that uses a flow of hot air to produce the convective heat transfer, in this way is achieved remove moisture contained in the cacao beans. Normally artificial drying systems cocoa, working in batches; this research the feasibility of...
