Abstract

This paper aims to demonstrate the practical aspects of process control theory for undergraduate students at the Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Bahrain. Both, the ubiquitous proportional integral derivative (PID) as well as model predictive control (MPC) and their auxiliaries were designed and implemented in a real-time framework. The latter was realized through retrofitting an existing plate-and-frame heat exchanger unit that has been operated using an analog PID temperature controller. The upgraded control system consists of a personal computer (PC), low-cost interface using X-transposed-region (XTR) converter, national instruments USB 6008 data acquisition card, and LabVIEW software. LabVIEW control design and simulation modules were used to design and implement the PID and MPC controllers. The performance of the designed controllers was evaluated while controlling the outlet temperature of the retrofitted plate-and-frame heat exchanger. The distinguished feature of the MPC controller in handling input and output constraints was perceived in real-time. From a pedagogical point of view, realizing the theory of process control through practical implementation was substantial in enhancing the student’s learning and the instructor’s teaching experience

Abstract

In this paper, a control scheme based on lookup table fuzzy proportionalintegral-derivate (PID) controller for the quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) movement control is proposed. This type of control provides enhanced quadrotor movement control beyond what can be achieved with conventional controllers and has a less computational burden on the processor. The proposed control scheme uses three lookup table based fuzzy logic controllers to control the different movement ranges of a quadrotor (i.e. roll, pitch, and yaw) to achieve stability. The mathematical model of a quadrotor, used to design the proposed controller, is derived based on the Lagrange approach. The processor in the loop (PIL) technique was used to test and validate the proposed control scheme. MATLAB/Simulink environment was used as a platform for the quadrotor model, whereas a low cost and high-performance STM32F407 microcontroller was used to implement the controllers. Data transfer between the hardware and software is via serial communication converter. The control system designed based on simulation is tested and validated using “processor in the loop” techniques.
