Control of process parameters are important in the chemical process industries. Proportional, integral and derivative controller is the most commonly used to form a closed loop system for the effective control of process parameter. In this paper, a liquid level in the cylindrical tank is to be controlled at setpoint value. At first, The model for such a real time process is identified and valid...

The two-tank thermal energy storage (TES) system is the most used technology for storage in concentrating solar power (CSP) plants. This work focuses on a parametric study, which aims to identify the most important parameters on TES system, in order to improve the design and increase the performance of the plant. Three parameters have been considered: meteorological data, insulation thickness o...

Major problems can occur when liquid sloshes in a tank, such as storage tanks during an earthquake, and this is important engineering problem to address. To analyze phenomenon, the finite-element method generally used but involves many degrees of freedom tank large. In paper, nonlinear numerical model with relatively few established for vertical horizontal two-dimensional sloshing rectangular e...

Abstract Indonesia’s crude palm oil (CPO) production from year to continues increase, at the end of 2020 it reached 17.35 million tons, up 3.6% previous year. Increasing will result in more CPO stock and require good storage. The storage process that occurs is maintain temperature so quality not damaged. This regulation still done manually raises risk work accidents. purpose this research creat...

A new system for measuring the cross-sectional area profiles of amputation stumps and whole limbs has been designed at the Amputee Research Centre. The instrument consists of a cylindrical tank supported on an elevator. The tank is raised to the height of the amputation stump and filled with water. A graph of the cross-sectional area profile of the amputation stump is generated by a mini-comput...

This paper presents the application of direct model reference adaptive control (DMRAC) on a nonlinear model of coupled-tank liquid level control system through simulation. The coupled-tank liquid level control system is regarded as the relevant plant to emulate the process control in petrol and chemical industries. The processing plants in these industries largely involve in controlling the liq...
