Abstract

Butterfly valves are usually used by the plumbing systems in plant engineering field. Valves are used for controlling the flow rate and pressure of fluid. In order to control the flow rate using butterfly valve, the position control of valve disc should be designed. However, since there are lots of uncertain disturbance in plumbing system, the robust control system should be considered. Therefore, the sliding mode control system using neural network algorithm is proposed in this paper. The proposed control system provides the estimating method using neural network for the unmeasurable disturbance in the plumbing system. The performance of the proposed control system is evaluated through computer simulations.
