Issues regarding the implementation of sliding controls for thermal regulation

Abstract

In this work a sliding modes controller is designed and implemented for regulate the temperature in a closed space. The system is represented with a lumped parameter model of 18R13C, initially the model is evaluated in simulation and tuned with experimental data, for the design of the controller is used the Monte Carlo method to simplify, and later calculate the equilibriums and main parameters, finally the controller is tested in a reduced scale model.
