Simulation of Heat Exchanger Dynamics and Its Control Study By Using MATLAB

Abstract

The most popular heat exchanger is one that transfers heat between two fluids from one region with a high temperature to another one with a lower temperature when compared to the first one for achieving thermal equilibrium. It can be utilized for heating or cooling. MATLAB is used to build the heat exchanger's simulation, which is the shell and tube heat exchanger process, to examine how the process responds under various operating situations. The system's mathematical model was then derived to implement the control system. To determine the optimal sort of control system, various types of control systems have been used. By comparing the PID type control system to other control systems about both settling time and bypass or percentage overshoot, the results showed that it is the best control system.
