Abstract :
The forced-circulation evaporator system is used as a case study in this paper. A mathematical nonlinear model is derived and implemented by SIMULINK. Linear model is obtained from linearization of the mathematical equations using MATLAB. Four suggested control algorithms are applied on nonlinear and linear models. The results show that it is a good case study for control education purposes.
