An Integrated IoT LabVIEW Based Fuzzy-PLC Controller for Automation of Boiler

Abstract

The proposed prototype, to develop and automate and controlling of steam outlet from the boiler unit in the Power Plants using Fuzzy logic-based PLC Controller. The set point of the steam outlet could be decided by the Fuzzy Logic Controller. Automation is a growing technology in almost all fields and It reduces the man power and time complexity in all the way to the thermal power plant also. It reduces the risk of making mistakes and avoid any danger. The details of the load is collected from P.T and then given to the LabVIEW. The data about the load requirements, peak load data requirements ae once fed into the LabVIEW. The LabVIEW sends signals to the PLC and steam outlet is controlled by Servo Motor. The steam outlet set point is measured and controlled by fuzzy logic with the help to PLC controller. Based on alternator current and voltage signal the fuzzy logic will decide the steam outlet set point. If in case the load requirement is higher or lower, the changes in the coal input and the water requirement are changed by means Fuzzy logic control. The steam valve sensor closes or opens the valve by servo motor using the variable frequency drive that is connected to the PLC. Depending upon the load, to the steam turbine. The PLC is connected to the ethernet by means in LabVIEW, in which the data are collected are given to the authorized person in the control room. If in case required the data can be used to store the data in the cloud for future use.

Simulación y Automatización de una celda robótica

“…Esto debido a que los productos requieren más calidad, además de una mayor cantidad de producción. Un ejemplo de ello es en [1] el cual habla de cómo controlar la salida de vapor donde se utiliza un controlador PLC basado en la lógica difusa, la automatización reduce la mano de obra y la complejidad de tiempo, reduce el riesgo de cometer errores y evita cualquier peligro. La salida de vapor se controla por Servor Motor, se mide y controla mediante lógica difusa con la ayuda del controlador PLC, la función de la corriente del alternador y la señal del voltaje, la lógica difusa decidirá el punto de ajuste de la salida de vapor y el sensor de la válvula de vapor cierra o abre mediante un servomotor que está conectado al PLC.…”

Modeling and implementing a load management system for a solar home system based on Fuzzy Logic

“…Other research has been conducted on the automatic control of lights and air conditioners in lecture rooms based on Arduino nano microcontrollers and managed to save electricity expenditure for a month with PIR sensors detecting the presence of people and LDR sensors which detect light intensity in the room [14,15]. Another study conducted research where the effectiveness of controlling using fuzzy logic on air conditioning can reduce energy consumption by 25% per year [16] The dimming response of the bulb automatically corresponds to the ambient light, and good effects of energy saving have been obtained from research [17].…”

Research on the application of PLC technology in electrical automation engineering

“…Dwinugroho et al [15] designed and optimised the mixed fertiliser system of the three-channel bypass fertiliser applicator, and verified the stability of the whole machine structure through simulation and experiments. Boobalan et al [16] combined fuzzy control and FPGA technology to design a greenhouse water and fertiliser integration system for online fertiliser mixing. The application results show that the system has good control performance.…”
