Control design for diesel engines using a Modelica model

Nylén, Anders (2015)
Department of Automatic Control
Abstract
The Modelica language supports reusable components throughout the design process. Using the Functional Mock-up Interface, system model built by reusable components can be transferred to different platforms. This can be done in a straightforward
manner and makes it possible for different engineering divisions to use the same Modelica models.

In this thesis, it is displayed how a Modelica model of a diesel engine can be used for control design. The diesel engine model is a multiple input and multiple output system. It is also nonlinear and has a higher order than most control design algorithms are able to handle in a numerically robust manner.
In this thesis the following approach was used to be able to control the system.... (More)

In this thesis the following approach was used to be able to control the system. Design-of-Experiment is used to analyze the variation of the dynamics of the system in the operating range of the engine. The Functional Mock-up Unit is linearized and
the number of states are reduced.
The controller used consists of nine multivariable Linear-Quadratic-Gaussian (LQG) controllers spread out over the operating range of the engine. Using a gain scheduler the different LQG controllers are connected. (Less)
