Performance Analysis of Non-linear Jacketed CSTR based on Different Control Strategies
This paper aims at finding the optimum controller for a jacketed Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR) under non-ideal conditions. Various conventional control methods show poor response for non-linear processes. This paper outlines the design procedure of the Internal Model Controller (IMC) and Model Reference Adaptive Control (MRAC). The performance of the jacketed CSTR process is analyzed based on Internal Model Control and adaptive control. Simulation results have been compared with conventional PID contro
A Review on Optimal Operation of Distributed Network Embedded to Wind-Battery Storage System
Energy is a vital requirement for today’s socio-economic welfare and development. But due to the continuous increase of the demand the conventional energy resources are depleting day by day and on the verge of extinction. Hence more renewable generation units are emphasised to integrate to the power network to supply the required demand. This incorporation of the distributed generation into the distributed network has the advantages of controllability, flexibility and tremendous potential if it can be exploited properly. However, due to their intermittent and unpredictable nature, there is a need for energy storages to ensure continuous operations, i.e., to meet the load all the time. There are many possible options for energy storage, but the most popular and technologically sound option is battery storage. Along with this battery storage system (BSS), a power conditioning system (PCS) has to be connected for generation of both active and reactive power from the BSS which in turn increases the overall installation cost of BSS. Moreover, the energy storage cost is a function of the storage device power, energy capacities and their specific costs depending on the chosen technology of optimization. Thus, profit from those renewable energy producers have to be maximized, and losses are to be minimized by using dynamic optimization techniques. But along with the advantages there comes the complexities due to the inclusion of distributed generation and the additional energy storages in the power system network. Moreover, it is highly critical to operate the vast system optimally. Hence there are lots of research had been done or are in process for finding the proper approach of optimization of the system. This paper presents a review of the current state of the optimization methods applied to renewable and sustainable energy source embedded with the Energy storage for maximization of the revenue obtained from the power trading to the network
Distributed Optical Fiber Sensor and Its Various Applications
The process of sensing can also be done with the help of optical fiber. This method of sensing is becoming very popular. The optical communication, which is the main communication technology, in this case, takes light as the carrier and optical fiber as the communication medium. Distributed Optical Fiber Sensors (DOFS) can be used for continuous measurement at the same time to obtain the spatial distribution of the measured state and time-varying information. This paper describes the background of DOFS technology. Various applications of DOFS are also listed
Bluetooth Controlled Metal Detector Robot
This paper presents a new type of robot that uses a metal detector sensor to detect metallic object passing over the metal detector. The robotic vehicle is controlled using android application for metal detection operation controlled with the help of Bluetooth technology. This project can be widely used because of its simplicity and ability to modify to meet changes of needs. Based on experimental studies, it was found that the mobile controlled robot can move in any direction as per the desired instruction and the beeper in the metal detector circuit beeps whenever it encounters any metallic object

Although it has its own problem, referred to as the chattering phenomenon, there are the methods as discussed in this paper to eliminate it
Design of Electronic Load Controllers of Induction Generators used in Micro Hydro Power Schemes
This paper describes the use of Electronic Load Controller on micro hydro power scheme in which no separate penstock is required to control the speed of the flow of water. The Electronic Load Controllers (ELC) is an electronic device in which the output of the generator can be maintained constant instead of changing or fluctuating user loads. The ELC maintains a constant generator output by introducing a separate load called ballast load which absorbs the load required by the consumer. This paper also explains and demonstrate a simulation model of an ELC
