“…En concreto en las titulaciones técnicas, la informática se ha convertido a día de hoy en un recurso imprescindible para que los egresados puedan desarrollar posteriormente su actividad profesional (Rahman et al 2013). Tareas tales como el cálculo y simulación de procesos, la puesta en marcha de instalaciones, diseño y optimización de sistemas, análisis de datos y hasta la mera elaboración de informes y presentaciones requieren el uso de aplicaciones informáticas.…”

Laboratorio virtual: solución de las ecuaciones de conservación mediante volúmenes finitos Resumen En este trabajo se presenta el diseño de un Laboratorio virtual de enseñanza-aprendizaje para la resolución de un problema modelo de Transferencia del Calor en la materia de Ingeniería Térmica del II curso del Grado de Ingeniero de Tecnologías Industriales de la Universidad Rey Juan Carlos de Madrid. En el ámbito de la Dinámica de Fluidos Computacional y mediante el uso del software de simulación de Ansys Fluent se introduce el alumno al diseño, modelado del sistema, resolución, análisis y validación del modelo. El resultado de esta experiencia de aprendizaje es no solo la mera resolución del problema, inabordable con métodos didácticos tradicionales, sino el desarrollo de la combinación de destrezas, habilidades y conocimientos necesarios para la adquisición de algunas de las competencias generales y específicas de la Ingeniería Térmica. AbstractIn the present work is showed the design of a teaching-learning Virtual Laboratory for the resolution of a Heat Transfer typical problem that appears in the matter "Thermal Engineering" during the II course of the Engineering in Industrial Technologies Degree taught at Rey Juan Carlos University of Madrid. In the field of Computational Fluid Dynamics and using the simulation software Ansys Fluent, the students are initiated in the design, system modeling, resolution, analysis and validation of the model. The result of this learning experience is not only the mere resolution of the problem, unapproachable with didactic traditional methods, but the development of the combination of skills, abilities and knowledge necessary for the acquisition of some of the general and specific competences of Thermal Engineering.

“…Visando ampliar os conhecimentos em controle de processo na Lamar University, Richmond e Chen (2012) abordaram, com seus alunos, técnicas de controle preditivo baseado em modelos (MPC) por meio de um novo pacote de software desenvolvido e testado pelos autores para ensinar aos alunos os fundamentos do MPC, incluindo sua aplicação sugerida em sala de aula. Nesta mesma linha, Rahman et al (2013) apresentam a seus alunos da Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia a teoria de lógica fuzzy no desenvolvimento de um sistema de controle fuzzy em tempo real para biorreatores, tendo como variáveis de processo pH e temperatura da reação de um processo de isomerização de frutose.…”

A aprendizagem de controle de processos é fundamental na formação do Engenherio Químico e a prática de controle contribui muita nessa formação. A fim de auxiliar de forma efetiva a aprendizagem de controle de processos este trabalho apresenta o desenvolvimento de um sistema, de baixo custo, de aquisição de dados e controle utilizandoo ambiente simulink do matlab e um Arduino. O Sistema foi desenvolvido para uma planta de controle de nível e será utilizado em aulas de controle de processos. A comunicação entre a planta-arduino-software se mostrou eficiente como demostrada em uma aplicação de controle utilizando a técnica shooting para a sintonia de controlador PID.

The study of process control applied to chemical engineering problems can be significantly improved by the use of simulation packages. However, it has been noted that few works have been focusing on elucidation of the use of open source packages for academic projects on process control. In fact, there is few online discussion groups aimed to the application of Xcos® package for chemical engineering projects. Given this, this work aims to apply the Xcos® for studying the implementation of the process control theory applied to chemical engineering projects, focusing on the development of control loops block diagrams, PID control tuning, and process response analysis. The purpose of the application is developing a virtual environment for academic discussion and repository of examples. The results of two benchmark case studies are illustrated, showing that the problems can be easily modified, allowing the student to solve other similar examples for future applications. For the first case, the settling time ranged from 24.067 to 72.492 min, while for the second case the stabilization time ranged from 5.301 to 20.904 min.The results evidence that the Xcos® software can be widely applied by the academic community, due to its simplicity and robustness in demonstrating the principal aspects of control theory.
