2014

Fuzzy Model Reference Learning Control (FMRLC) is an capable technique for the control of nonlinear process. In this paper, a FMRLC is applied in to a non linear shell and tube Heat Exchanger process (STHE). First, the mathematical model of the STHE process is derived and simulation runs are carried out by considering the FMRLC in a closed loop. A similar test runs are also carried out with hybrid fuzzy P+ID Controller and conventional fuzzy for comparison analysis. The results clearly indicate that the incorporation of FMRLC in the control loop in spherical tank system provides a good tracking performance than the hybrid fuzzy P+ID and conventional fuzzy controller.

Indonesian Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2021

Shell and tube heat exchanger are the most generally utilized types of heat exchanger for heat transfer in many industrial purposes. Shell and tube heat exchanger comprise a set of units. One unit includes mechanical parts and another unit consists of controlling part. Both the unit has to be modelled to ensure the efficient operation of shell and tube heat exchanger. The mechanical modelling is completely established on the type of applications. The controller modelling is independent of the kind of applications. The controller only needs the input fluid and output fluid properties such as temperature and flow rate. Hence the primary objective of the paper is to focus on the controller part for enhancing the heat exchanger performance. This paper proposes the novel fuzzy-PID controlling technique based on the multiplication operation to make the settling time and overshoot of setpoint temperature to be less to a greater extent and the results are compared with the conventional PI method with various tuning algorithms.

Chemical engineering transactions, 2011

This work deals with the design and application of a neuro-fuzzy controller for a heat exchanger. To deal with the problem of parameter adjustment, efficient neuro-fuzzy scheme known as the ANFIS (Adaptive Network-based Fuzzy Inference System) can be used. The ANFIS is a cross between an artificial neural network and a fuzzy inference system (FIS) and represents Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy model as generalized feedforward neural network, and trains it with plant I/O data, thereby adjusting the parameters of the antecedent membership functions as well as those of the functional consequents. The neuro-fuzzy control of the heat exchanger is compared with classical PID control. The simulation results confirm that fuzzy is one of the possibilities for successful control of heat exchangers. The advantage of this approach is that it is not a linear-model-based strategy. Comparison of the simulation results obtained using fuzzy and those obtained using classical PID control demonstrates the effecti...
