| Abstract | Controlling combustion processes is an important task, mainly with respect to energy efficiency and ecological impacts. This problem has become significant with the increased use of biomass-fired boilers, including low-power boilers. The combustion process is a process that we have limited information about. The equations for the chemical reactions are known, but in reality combustion of biomass is much more complicated and more variable than a mathematical model can express. It is therefore not simple to design a controller that is able to control the combustion process effectively in the whole range. Small-scale biomass-fired boilers are usually equipped with simple two-state (on/off) controllers. Many laboratories have attempted to develop a model of the combustion process suitable for controller setting and parameter adaptation, but the results are not yet satisfactory or generally valid. Thus, advanced model-based control strategies are not usable, while the use of a model-free controller is not excluded if well-designed tuning rules can be provided. An approach which tries to satisfy most of the requirements of industrial practice is presented in this paper, which is based on an experimentally performed evaluation of small amplitude excited frequency responses with the aim to achieve recommended values of one or more control quality indicator known e.g. from the course of the Nyquist plot. The indicators can be evaluated experimentally in control loops involving nonlinearities. In this sense, the method has a philosophy similar to that of the popular Ziegler and Nichols method, but no interruption of the control process is necessary and the amplitude of the excited oscillation can be set by operator. The main advantages of the method presented here are: there is no use of any mathematical model, it can be used as an addition to the existing controller purely by software, and there is no need to interrupt the control process while retuning the controller. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
