An application of integrated design notation: extruder modeling and control

摘要

This work falls within the frame fo the research project "Process Control System Integration" (PCSI) which aims to rpovide automated translation of the languages for plant modelling and simulation, such as Matlab, Simulink, State flow and IEC, in the frame of an object-based infrastructure, the Integrated Design Notation (IDN). The output of the IDn is to be Java code that runs in real time on the plant. The targeted application for the PCSI project used as a case tool is the control of extrusion process, and this paper discusses the modelling and control of a typical 90 mm plastic extruder.
