Desarrollo de un prototipo de horno industrial con un controlador de lógica difusa de temperatura para prácticas de laboratorio

Abstract

This project aims to implement a didactic prototype for conducting engineering control exercises. This system is based on an industrial oven model, one of the simplest new models for introducing and designing controllers for dynamic systems that are very complex to stabilize, considering the 12-15\% characteristic of traditional controls. For the implementation of this prototype, a thermal enclosure system is used to regulate the temperature to a desired value and provide real-time monitoring. Additionally, the temperature sensor indicates the temperature inside the oven and compares it to a reference point, allowing the MATLAB controller to send the required data to the Arduino Mega. Finally, when the oven reaches a specific temperature, a signal is sent to stop the SSR from sending pulses to the corresponding resistor. Lastly, a controller with its interface was designed and programmed: a visual control panel with a real-time thermometer. The calculations and simulations for the design of this controller were performed in MATLAB.
