The work develops modelling of the proposed system in order to deduce a single controller regulating input voltage which is able to operate in the whole set of operation conditions of the system. The resulting system can be used to develop current or voltage outer controllers.

This paper proposes an optimal management model of this type of microgrids under the minimum operation cost goal. The mathematical formulation is presented in detail, which involves constraints related to the operation of the system over a time horizon of a week. The proposed model is validated using an estimation of the water-energy demand of a generic small town located in La Guajira Department of Colombia, which is known as Ranchería. The numerical results show the effectiveness of the management model under four study cases.","PeriodicalId":230738,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 5th Colombian Conference on Automatic Control (CCAC)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120958407","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the pH is one of the most difficult variables to control, because it is a nonlinear system with multiple disturbances. This paper proposes successful control strategies for the alkalized juice system. In particular, a cascade control with feedforward and feedback configuration to control pH and a function of level versus pump speed to minimize disturbances associated with input juice flow rate. A preliminary process characterization is obtained with the Ziegler-Nichols method, which validates the long system dead time. In this way, the system is modified to change its dynamics. The proposed strategies are implemented in one of the main plant producers of ethanol in Colombia. The qualitative and quantitative results show the effectiveness of the control strategies in a comparative study of three cases.","PeriodicalId":230738,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 5th Colombian Conference on Automatic Control (CCAC)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125866417","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
