Design, Implementation, and Evaluation of a Real Time Localization System for the Optimization of Agitation Processes

Sim-to-Real Transfer in Deep Learning for Agitation Evaluation of Biogas Power Plants

“…For this work, three simulation cases were developed, where one is based on a previously measured system [7]. One challenge when simulating biogas plants is the non-Newtonian fluid's behavior.…”

“…Figure 9 left shows a system evaluation made in the past [7]. This system was able to follow the behavior of the fluid on its surface, although it offered no insight into sub-surface flow characteristics.…”

“…(Top) shows a standard fermenter with a 28 m vessel diameter and filling height of 7 m (left) and a Landia POP inclined blade stirrer[6] that launches the fluid perpendicular from the vessel wall (right). (Bottom) shows an agitation setup that is based on a real-world system where fluid-tracking measurements were taken in the past[7]. The vessel diameter is 11 m, vessel fill height is 2 m (left), and a reduced Landia POP inclined blade stirrer is used to launch the fluid in a parallel motion to the vessel walls.…”
