Fuel Saving Strategy In Spark Ignition Engine Using Fuzzy Logic Engine Torque Control, Aris Triwiyatno, Sumardi Sumardi Apr 2012

Fuel Saving Strategy In Spark Ignition Engine Using Fuzzy Logic Engine Torque Control, Aris Triwiyatno, Sumardi Sumardi

Makara Journal of Technology

In the case of injection gasoline engine, or better known as spark ignition engines, an effort to improve engine performance as well as to reduce fuel consumption is a fairly complex problem. Generally, engine performance improvement efforts will lead to increase in fuel consumption. However, this problem can be solved by implementing engine torque control based on intelligent regulation such as the fuzzy logic inference system. In this study, fuzzy logic engine torque regulation is used to control the throttle position entered by the driver to achieve optimal engine torque. An engine torque vs. throttle position and engine speed mapping …


Broken Rotor Bar Fault Detection In Inverter-Fed Squirrel Cage Induction Motors Using Stator Current Analysis And Fuzzy Logic, Mehmet Akar, İlyas Çankaya Jan 2012

Broken Rotor Bar Fault Detection In Inverter-Fed Squirrel Cage Induction Motors Using Stator Current Analysis And Fuzzy Logic, Mehmet Akar, İlyas Çankaya

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper presents the implementation of broken rotor bar fault detection in an inverter-fed induction motor using motor current signal analysis (MCSA) and prognosis with fuzzy logic. Recently, inverter-fed induction motors have become very popular because of their adjustable speed drive. They have been used in many vital control applications such as rolling mills, variable speed compressors, pumps, and fans. The condition monitoring of these motors can significantly reduce the cost of maintenance in the early detection of faults. In this study, MCSA is applied to an inverter-fed induction motor to detect broken rotor bar faults. The diagnosis of a …


A Robust Adaptive Fuzzy Control Of A Unified Power Flow Controller, Sebaa Morsli, Allaoui Tayeb, Denai Mouloud, Chaker Abdelkader Jan 2012

A Robust Adaptive Fuzzy Control Of A Unified Power Flow Controller, Sebaa Morsli, Allaoui Tayeb, Denai Mouloud, Chaker Abdelkader

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper investigates the control of a unified power flow controller (UPFC) to improve the stability of a power system, hence providing security under increased power flow conditions. The proposed control methods include a direct proportional and integral (PI) controller and an adaptive fuzzy logic controller (AFLC). The performances of these controllers were evaluated under different operating conditions of the power system and the results demonstrated that PI and AFLC are very effective in improving the transient power system stability and very robust against variable transmission line parameters.
