Auto Tuning of PI Controller using Fuzzy Logic for the Spherical Tank System and its Real Time Implementation
Abstract: In this paper, Auto Tuning of PI controller using fuzzy logic is developed to improve the performance of the spherical tank process. A real time implementation of proposed controller for a spherical tank to control liquid level is studied. Control of liquid level in a spherical tank is highly non linear due to variation in the area of cross section of level system with change in shape. System identification of …

Intelligence Wide Angle Diffuser Relocation for Wind Tunnel
Abstract: A wide angle diffuser is placed between the centrifugal blower and the settling chamber for the open circuit wind tunnel. The cross-sectional area increases so rapidly that separation can only be avoided by boundary layer control. The wide angle diffuser is a means of reducing the length for a given area ratio rather than affecting a pressure recovery. The length of the wide angle diffuser is 3.5 m, area ratio …

Technological Progress in Thin Wall Austempered Ductile Iron: From Manufacturing to Operation
Abstract: Nowadays, aluminum is used more often than cast iron in the production of cast parts due to the desire to reduce vehicle weight. Theoretically, austempered ductile iron can be used in high strength, light weight parts because thin wall austempered ductile iron (TWADI) components can be produced with strength-to-density ratios that are comparable to those of cast aluminum. Thus, advancements in the technology of thin wall austempered ductile iron are …

Theoretical modelling of heat transfer in non-homogeneous porous media
Abstract: The paper is focused on the study and analysis of heat transfer in geothermal substrates made up of non-homogeneous porous media. The paper analyses the influence of porosity on the heat transfer as a result of the combination of conduction and convection mechanisms that take place in non-homogeneous porous materials. As a result of the combined effect heat transfer is not homogeneously distributed throughout the cross section of the geothermal …

Development of A Systematic Strategy for Maintenance of Rural Road Network
Abstract: The lack of year round access to many rural communities is a serious constraint to social and economic development of rural road. Poor access limits the effectiveness of agricultural, commercial, educational and health initiatives though unreliable travel and high unit transport costs for crops, goods, services and people.. However, experiences have shown that these roads, although relatively cheap to construct, are often an unsustainable maintenance burden for many rural communities …
