Work objective is to develop an algorithm for automatic speed regulation and to ensure its integration into the system of adaptive combined control of the power equipment of the locomotive TEM7A. Research methods: methods of the theory of automatic control, modern programming methods, trial trips. Research results and novelty. For the first time, the problem of automatic maintenance of "creeping" train speeds with high accuracy has been solved in the practice of domestic locomotive construction. It is established that the developed algorithm for automatic control of the humping speed and splitting up of shunting locomotive TEM7A allows maintaining a given speed in the range of operating speeds up to 8 km / h. Conclusion. The developed algorithm is integrated into the microprocessor control system of the power equipment of TEM7A shunting locomotive and does not require additional costs when through the locomotive operation. Maintaining a uniform speed of movement can also be used in the mode of manual control of the locomotive by the driver, while the value of the stipulated rate is set by the driver using the display module of the control panel.

SYNTHESIS OF A FUZZY TWO-LINKED REGULATOR FOR FREQUENCY ELECTRIC DRIVES OF A GRAIN MACHINE WITH A FOCUS OF THE GRAIN FLOW

Purpose. A control system for grain overloading during post-harvest processing with grain throwers has been proposed, the use of which will reduce damage and grain loss. An automated electromechanical system is presented that can be installed on agricultural machinery without additional modernization of the working bodies. Methodology. As a result of the analysis of control systems, a system with elements of fuzzy logic was selected, which will clearly define the necessary control actions and take into account additional parameters that can affect the overload process. A functional diagram of a microprocessor control system for an electric drive using a fuzzy system is proposed. The result of the system operation will be the definition of the control task for the frequency converters of the drive motors of the grain thrower mechanisms. Originality. Based on the simulation of grain flight trajectories, the dependences of the flight range on the conveyor speed and additional blowing were formed, which were used to determine the settings of the fuzzy controller. Results. Fuzzy system settings are performed: a set of input and output variables is defined; the number and location of terms are selected; a set of production rules for the system is formulated. As a result of experimental modeling, graphs of the formation of mastering influences by a fuzzy controller under the condition of the appearance and disappearance of the headwind for different given distances of movement were obtained. Practical value. Practical application of the offered system will allow to reduce material losses from injury of the overloaded grain and to increase efficiency of work of the grain thrower.

AUTOMATIC CONTROL STRUCTURE FOR FORESTRY MATERIALS

The article discusses a method of extreme control of the driving effects of the microclimate, which consists in keeping the objective function at the point of extremum for the control system. To solve the problem of extreme management, it is necessary to introduce computerization of the control and development of forest planting material. This will allow you to collect statistical information for the entire time of observation of plant growth. The primary task here is the analysis of observations and the possibility of generating regulatory influences from the microprocessor control system of the microclimate of the greenhouse. From literature sources, the stages of development of forest seedlings are known, for which data on the natural growth of seedlings and seedlings based on processing of statistical material are obtained. To date, recent studies show that there are no necessary mathematical models, both in growth and in the development of planting material under changing conditions and the nature of growth, and in time periods. Thus, objects of sheltered soil can be attributed from the point of view of the object of control and regulation to systems with variable parameters. That is, they can be characterized as unknown mathematical models.

MAKING AN ALGORITHM FOR CONTROLLING THE INDIVIDUAL DRIVE OF THE DRIVING WHEELS OF A TRANSPORT AND TECHNOLOGICAL MODULE

Improving the traction properties of mobile power tools is one of the most important tasks of modern tractor construction. The use of transport-technological modules (TTM) helps to solve this problem, but to ensure the best indicators of fuel economy and stabilization of a machine-and-tractor unit (MTU), the TTM driving wheels should be driven individually, which can be ensured by a microprocessor control system. Therefore, the study goal is to make an algorithm for controlling the driving wheels of the TTM, which will ensure the best characteristics of a MTU. To achieve this goal, the authors used mathematical modeling and graph-analytical methods. They are necessary for stating the main relationships and setting algorithm conditions that will optimize a tractor’s traction force and power consumption, as well as stabilize its movement trajectory. The operation of the microprocessor system consists in obtaining data from external sensors and determining the actual speed, skidding and direction of travel. The microprocessor system compares these parameters with ideal conditions, described with mathematical relationships, and based on the developed algorithm, corrects the rotation speed and power distribution between the driving wheels of a TTM.

Investigation of electrical fuel – injection pump characteristics of petrol engines in simulation of basic fuel system problems

Technical state of electrical fuel-injection pumps of automobiles with petrol engines was evaluated with application of a multiple factor experiment, based on diagnostics test modes. There exist two main problems in the fuel system, connected with the fuel volume being injected into the fuel rail: clogging when the fuel flow to the rail and next to nozzles is hindered, wear out of elements in the pump part (due to an increasing clearance space between fuel-injection pump pulleys and casing the fuel flows over the tank, i.e., does not enter the system in sufficient volume). The studies showed that in the first case of fuel system problems the pump power circuit draws the current 4,6 А persistently depending on clogging extent. Such current rate is necessary for keeping high rotations of the pump elements, helping the pump to push through the necessary fuel volume into the fuel rail, making the essential pressure 310 кПа. In the second case the fuel does not enter the rail in sufficient amount either, but the current rate here is small (even smaller than the nominal reading). For example, in the largest fuel leakage it equals 2,5 A, power voltage being 12,5 V. The results and methods of experimental data treatment with MathCAD application are presented. The article materials are applicable for research, repair, technical maintenance organizations when they estimate technical state of fuel-injection low-pressure pumps ( including those which are installed on engines with microprocessor control system).
