Tangible Programming

Programming control in industrial design is by its nature expert upon an example being Programmable Logic Controller (PLC). Such programmes are unsuitable for children or novices as they cannot understand how to use the programme. This research seeks to present tangible programming for a basic control system in new frameworks in engineering education for children. Such programmes could be for use in kindergartens, primary schools or general teaching where knowledge about basic control is required. Normally open-loop and closed-loop control system programming is taught at university and college level. This may be late as far as acquiring knowledge of basic control systems is concerned. Using tangible programming without a computer but instructions and interface, relay and motor could result in children in kindergartens and primary schools being able to programme open-looped control systems which mix chemicals or closed-loop control systems which control conveyor belts. However, the children would not be able to undertake programming using programmable control in a similar scenario.

The 19Th Century

Automatic controls have been used on all types of machinery since the first complicated machines became popular in the 19th century. Controls are used to maintain pressures, temperatures, operating speeds, flows and many other operating parameters. Natural gas engines have used a variety of controls for various purposes since the first natural gas engines were produced. This paper will discuss the history of mechanical controls used on natural gas engines and the introduction and application of electronic controls. The paper will discuss open loop (mapping) and closed loop (feedback) type controls and common applications of each. Mechanical control systems such as governors, fuel regulators, fuel mixing valves, thermostats, and turbocharger wastegates will be discussed and classified as open or closed loop controls. Electronic control systems such as governors, air/fuel ratio controls, detonation controls, and turbocharger controls will also be discussed and classified. This paper will also discuss state of the art controls which perform numerous functions to get desired performance, and can be communicated with remotely.

Simulation Results

This paper deals with integral based methods to estimate the order and parameters of simple fractional order models from the extracted noisy step response data of a process. This data can be obtained from both open-loop and closed-loop tests. Numerical simulation results are presented to verify the robustness of these proposed methods in the presence of the measurement noise.

Position Control System

A digital compensator using a forward algorithm, F(z−1), and a feedback algorithm, H(z−1), is developed for an electrohydraulic position control system incorporating an underlapped servovalve and a single-rod cylinder. The main problems encountered with designing such a closed-loop system are discussed, and it is shown how the filter coefficients may be easily determined for a particular class of open-loop transfer function. An excellent comparison between theory and experiment is obtained and it is deduced that one coefficient only need be changed in the forward algorithm for such gain-change dominant systems.

Optimum Control Problem

This paper presents possible extensions of the usual differential game theory to the case where the players, say the supremal players do not completely govern the plant, but control it only via infimal players who have their own pay-off functions. One assumes that the internal structure of the game is given in the sense that the supremal players cannot define arbitrary decompositions for the system. One further assumes that these supremal players have given programming terminal objectives which they desire to attain. In this framework, the supremal players can only select suitable functions, which are the coordination controls, to coordinate the system for the best. It follows that the problem so defined is simultaneously an optimum control problem and a programming one. The direct coordination mode, the open-loop indirect coordination mode and the closed-loop indirect coordination mode are defined and are mainly based upon a direct reference to the overall system, together with a two-level optimization process. The explicit equations are given in the important case where the comparison criterion is defined in the form of an Euclidean norm, and an illustrative example is solved. This approach would be interesting to apply to the problem of learning and self-learning in optimum control systems for instance, via gradient techniques.

The Relationship

The six-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) is designed with two sets of Y-connected windings phase shifted by 30 electrical degrees. Two mathematic models of six-phase PMSM are established by different methods, which are based on dual d-q transformation and decoupling vector space respectively. By the dual d-q transformation, the electromagnetic torque is calculated based on the two sets of Y-connected windings separately. By the decoupling vector transformation, extra vector subspace is established, in which the current components have no effect on the electromagnetic torque. According to the different models, two vector control systems for six-phase PMSM are presented. The relationship and equivalence of the two control methods are indicated through comparison analysis and open-loop simulation. And the closed-loop simulation and experiment results show that the two methods have consistent control performance
