Control System 64 . Control System for Automated Feed Plant
نویسنده
چکیده
Many factories, especially in developing countries, still use old technology and control systems. Some of them are forced to replace at least the control and supervising system in order to increase their productivity. This chapter presents a modern solution for updating the control system of a fodder-producing factory without replacing the field devices or the infrastructure. The automation system was chosen in order to allow correct control of the whole plant, using a single programmable logic controller (PLC). Structure and design of the software project is described. Also, several interesting software solutions for managing special processes such as material extraction and weighing machines calibration are presented. Production quality results and future development are also discussed. In the last part of the chapter some guidelines for automation of a chicken-growing plant are presented. 64.1 Objectives ........................................... 1129

An automatic test case generator for evaluating implementation of access control policies
One of the main requirements for providing software security is the enforcement of access control policies which aim to protect resources of the system against unauthorized accesses. Any error in the implementation of such policies may lead to undesirable outcomes. For testing the implementation of access control policies, it is preferred to use automated methods which are faster and more relia...
متن کاملDevelopment of simulation model for performance evaluation of feed water system in a typical thermal power plant
The present paper deals with development of a simulation model for the performance evaluation of feed water system of a thermal power plant using Markov Birth-Death process and probabilistic approach. In present paper, the feed water system consists of four subsystems. After drawing transition diagram for feed water system, differential equations are developed and then solved recursively using ...
متن کاملFuzzy gain scheduling of PID controller for stiction compensation in pneumatic control valve
Inherent nonlinearities like, deadband, stiction and hysteresis in control valves degenerate plant performance. Valve stiction standouts as a more widely recognized reason for poor execution in control loops. Measurement of valve stiction is essential to maintain scheduling. For industrial scenarios, loss of execution due to nonlinearity in control valves is an imperative issue that should be t...
متن کاملReducing Retrieval Time in Automated Storage and Retrieval System with a Gravitational Conveyor Based on Multi-Agent Systems
The main objective of this study is to reduce the retrieval time of a list of products by choosing the best combination of storage and retrieval rules at any time. This is why we start by implementing some storage rules in an Automated Storage/Retrieval System (Automated Storage and Retrieval System: AS/RS) fitted with a gravity conveyor while some of these rules are dedicated to storage and ot...
متن کاملA Method to Justify Process Control Systems in Mineral Processing Applications
The impact of installing process control systems can be expected in terms of performance improvements through reduced operating costs. Since these installations impose considerable capital expenditure, the profitability of the new systems should be economically justified. Controlled variable trend was reconstructed by a combination of simple waves, which provided a means to simulate the ef...
