Diseño e implementación de una estrategia de control para un modelo no lineal aplicado a un sistema multitanques en procesos industriales, basado en algoritmos genéticos

Abstract

The hands-on training within which peruvian college students are put on into practice with training modules in the automation and control fields, has to be reinforced due to the rapid technological changes, and even more this fact is emphasized when the development of the industry 4.0 in Peru, begins to grow in short steps but with a sure predisposition of change. Thus, it has been proposed the construction and implementarion of an industrial control training module, that can be used in the áreas of Mechatronics Engineering, Process Control and Automation. This apparatus can serve as a training module for students of the faculty of mechanical engineering, who will be guided by an assistant and a professor of the subjects regarding to control and related courses. The mechanical, electronic and electrical parts that make up this module, have been designed to provide an integral system, offering multiple control systems for the analysis and study of the various control algorithms which can be implemented with two controllers embedded in the system itself. This fact enables the use of multiple programming languages during the control process, such as the softwares: Labview, Matlab and C#. The sensors and actuators used to measure the variables involved in the control process, are industrial, allowing the student to learn to configure, calibrate and program each device. The didactic purpose presented in this training module for the level control, also aims to study the types of algorithms that improve the performance of every control process.
