Real time control of a shell and tube heat exchanger by implementing ANFIS model reference adaptive PID controller [articol]

Abstract

In this work ANFIS MRA PID controller was implemented in a shell and tube heat exchanger (STHE) and the temperature of hot water flow of the heat exchanger was controlled. The second order differential equation model of the heat exchanger was used to carry out the simulation studies of proposed controller for servo and regulatory tracking of the system. The performance of the proposed controller found better when compared with conventional PID and FMRAC controlled responses of the system. The real time control implemented on STHE system using the proposed controller also proved its better performance than the real time performance of the STHE system implemented with conventional PID controller
