Abstract
Temperature is the most critical parameter to ensure the proper cleaning of beverage containers in bottle washer machine. The requirement and importance of temperature control of different treatment zones of bottle washer machine for small scale beverage industry has been discussed. The sample water heating tank has been considered as the treatment zone of the bottle washer machine. The temperature control of the sample water heating tank with VIPA 315-SB PLC using PID control has been discussed and implemented. Two tuning methods for PID control, namely Ziegler Nichols tuning and auto-tuning have been discussed and implemented. The novel approach for implementation of MPC using OPC server and MATLAB as an OPC client has been discussed and implemented for sample water heating tank system. The comparison between PID and MPC temperature control schemes have been shown in terms various performance indices. The results show that MPC provides better control and better performance compared to PID control scheme.
