an alumina supported co/ni catalyst was prepared by sol-gel procedure to study the catalytic behavior during fischer-tropsch synthesis in a fixed-bed reactor. the effect of co conversion (10-50%) on hydrocarbon product distribution (ch4, c5+ and c2-c4 olefin selectivities) was studied. selectivity for ch4 decreased, while those of c5+ and olefin selectivities increased with increasing co conver...

Models in the form of characteristic diagrams or more specifically, in the form of engine operating maps are mostly used in the automobile industry. This yields a large amount of measurements and involves the use of advanced instrumentations. This paper shows a developed software environment, namely a toolbox for the program Matlab/Simulink developed by company Mathworks. The name of the toolbo...

This study proposed a model-based robust fault detection (RFD) method using soft computing techniques. Robust detection of the possible realistic incipient faults of an industrial gas turbine engine in steady-state conditions is mainly centered. For residual generation a bank of Multi-Layer perceptron (MLP) models, is used, Moreover, in fault detection phase, a passive approach based on Modelli...

This paper compares a genetic programming approach with a greedy partition algorithm (LOLIMOT) for structure identi cation of local linear neuro-fuzzy models. The crisp linear conclusion part of a Takagi-Sugeno-Kang (TSK) fuzzy rule describes the underlying model in the local region speci ed in the premise. The objective of structure identi cation is to identify an optimal partition of the inpu...

An alumina supported Co/Ni catalyst was prepared by sol-gel procedure to study the catalytic behavior during Fischer-Tropsch synthesis in a fixed-bed reactor. The effect of CO conversion (10-50%) on hydrocarbon product distribution (CH4, C5+ and C2-C4 olefin selectivities) was studied. Selectivity for CH4 decreased, while those of C5+<...

-In this paper, an intelligent controller is applied to electrically heated micro heat exchanger. First, the dynamics of the micro heat exchanger is identified using Locally Linear Model Tree (LOLIMOT) algorithm. Then, an intelligent controller based on brain emotional learning algorithm is applied to the identified model. Modeling emotions has attracted much attention in recent years, both in ...
