Transient Modelling of a Rotary-Kiln Pyrolyser

چکیده
The increasing interest in small-scale renewable-energy plants for distributed power generation has led to a demand for suitable software tools to study and develop control systems able to manage advanced integrated systems. Biomass, as a renewable energy resource, needs to be processed if it is to be exploited in small CHP units and pyrolysis is one of the options available for transforming solid biomass into useful liquid and gaseous fuels. This work is concerned with the development of a time-dependent model of a rotary-kiln pyrolyser for biomass: the model is intended for the development of control systems and the simulation of integrated energy systems, where the pyrolyser is connected to a power-generation package. The model was developed within the TRANSEO environment and based on a quasi 2-D numerical discretisation of the rotary kiln. Results are shown for a real case that is currently under construction: the model is able to predict the impact of different operating conditions on fuel yields, as well as capturing the main transient phenomena occurring during changes in the pyrolyser operating conditions. Kewords: Biomass, pyrolysis, distributed generation, transient modelling.

Identification of Cement Rotary Kiln in Noisy Condition using Takagi-Sugeno Neuro-fuzzy System
Cement rotary kiln is the main part of cement production process that have always attracted many researchers’ attention. But this complex nonlinear system has not been modeled efficiently which can make an appropriate performance specially in noisy condition. In this paper Takagi-Sugeno neuro-fuzzy system (TSNFS) is used for identification of cement rotary kiln, and gradient descent (GD) algori...
متن کاملIdentification of Multiple Input-multiple Output Non-linear System Cement Rotary Kiln using Stochastic Gradient-based Rough-neural Network
Because of the existing interactions among the variables of a multiple input-multiple output (MIMO) nonlinear system, its identification is a difficult task, particularly in the presence of uncertainties. Cement rotary kiln (CRK) is a MIMO nonlinear system in the cement factory with a complicated mechanism and uncertain disturbances. The identification of CRK is very important for different pur...
