  2. 1. Industry applications of multivariable control

    Author : Wolfgang Birk; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reglerteknik; Control Engineering;

    Abstract : In the face of environmental regulations, optimization of industrial processes becomes necessary. This doctoral thesis summarizes the results of three application-driven projects in automatic control that were aimed at process optimization in the steel industry. READ MORE

  4. 2. Multivariable control of a pneumatic conveying system

    Author : Wolfgang Birk; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reglerteknik; Control Engineering;

    Abstract : This licentiate thesis deals with a multivariable controller of a pneumatic conveying system. The industrial process used to illustrate design, analysis and implementation of a multivariable controller is the injection of fine coal into a blast furnace. READ MORE

  5. 3. Selection of Decentralized Control Configuration for Uncertain Systems

    Author : Ali Kadhim; Wolfgang Birk; Thomas Gustafsson; Miguel Castaño Arranz; Torsten Wik; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reglerteknik; Control Engineering;

    Abstract : Industrial processes nowadays involve hundreds or more of variables to be maintained within predefined ranges to achieve the production demands. However, the lack of accurate models and practical tools to design controllers for such large processes motivate the engineers/practitioners to break the processes down into smaller subsystems and applying decentralized controllers.

  6. 4. Cooling Control Strategies in Data Centers for Energy Efficiency and Heat Recovery

    Author : Riccardo Lucchese; Andreas Johansson; Wolfgang Birk; Thomas Brunschwiler; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reglerteknik; Control Engineering;

    Abstract : Data centers are facilities dedicated to the processing, storage, and relay of large amounts of digital information. As a whole, it is an energy intensive industry, characterized by a sizable carbon footprint and a short-term exponential growth rate. READ MORE

  7. 5. On Efficient Modeling, Simulation and Control of District Energy Systems

    Author : Johan Simonsson; Wolfgang Birk; Khalid Atta; Jan Dimon Bendtsen; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Automatic Control; Reglerteknik;

    Abstract : Sustainable energy systems rely on a wide range of energy sources, where an integral part is to use the available energy as efficiently as possible. District energy systems are considered a key factor towards decarbonization as an efficient way of distributing heat and cold within urban areas and facilitating the utilization of renewable energy sources and heat recovery from, e.
