Heat Exchanger, Resonance Dynamics, Repetitive Controller
The main purpose of using controllers in heat exchanger is to control the fluid outlet temperature to its set point. Several controllers are in use to control the set point in a heat exchanger. In tubular heat exchangers, due to the flow induced vibration resonance occurs. If the vibration is high, it can cause damages to the tubes present inside the tubular heat exchanger. To eliminate this problem, repetitive controller is used which can easily cancel out the resonance dynamics present. In this paper, design of a tubular heat exchanger and Repetitive Controller is done and the simulation results are also provided.
