Abstract

One of the problems for development of industrial controls programs is the availability of the actual equipment to be controlled. Availability of the equipment may be due to project timing, cost issues, and even location. By using a simulation tool, integrated with the control programming environment, the control engineer can test the control program functionality to reduce the amount of time required to commission and deploy the system. Dependent upon the complexity of the system and simulation, diagnostic programs can be developed and tested. Additionally, as new control system capabilities are developed, the corresponding simulation model can be adapted to test those new capabilities. In this paper, we describe the development, use, and validation of an integrated control and simulation tool for an anaerobic digester lab system. Results of the validation tests are discussed, as well as the methods used to develop and deploy the control program. Finally, future work is described to use the capabilities of the control and simulation tool as a formal validation step in the control system design and commissioning.

案例研究:厌氧消化系统的控制设计，采用基于仿真的同步

开发工业控制程序的问题之一是要控制的实际设备的可用性。设备的可用性可能是由于项目的时间，成本问题，甚至位置。通过使用与控制编程环境集成的仿真工具，控制工程师可以测试控制程序功能，以减少调试和部署系统所需的时间。根据系统和仿真的复杂性，可以开发和测试诊断程序。此外，随着新的控制系统功能的开发，相应的仿真模型可以适应测试这些新功能。在本文中，我们描述了厌氧消化实验室系统的集成控制和仿真工具的开发，使用和验证。讨论了验证测试的结果，以及用于开发和部署控制程序的方法。最后，描述了未来的工作，以使用控制和仿真工具的功能作为控制系统设计和调试中的正式验证步骤。
