Back Propagation Neural Network for Controlling Coupled Water Tank
Abstract
A well-prepared abstract enables the reader to identify the basic content of the level and flow control in tanks is the heart of all chemical engineering systems. The control of liquid level in tanks and flow between tanks is a basic problem in the process industries. Many times the liquids will be processed by chemical or mixing treatment in the tanks, but always the level of fluid in the tanks must be controlled and the flow between tanks must be regulated in presence of non-linearity. Therefore, in this paper will use neural network based on backpropagation (BP) to control of level 2 in the tank 2 with the setpoint of 10 centimeters and can follow the setpoint changes to 8 centimeters given in 225 seconds. The results show that a neural network based on backpropagation can follow setpoint given with steady-state error is 0 cm, overshoot is 0%, the rising time is 49 seconds, settling time is 52 seconds and can follow setpoint changes in 51 seconds.
