In this paper some theoretical and experimental results concerning the modeling and control
of rectangular natural circulation loops are presented. These thermo-fluid-dynamic systems …

In this paper a new modelling strategy based on the approximation of the Fourier series
expansion of the analytic model of a rectangular thermal convection loop is proposed. This …

The problem of existence of functional gains for boundary control of parabolic problems
remains incomplete. In particular, it is not yet known when LQR feedback operators have …

In this paper a fuzzy LMI control strategy for a rectangular thermosyphon is proposed. These
thermo-fluid-dynamic systems are used to refrigerate heat sources by means of natural …

In this paper the problem of modeling the dynamics of a natural circulation loop was
addressed by means of neural networks. Determining such a model represents an important …

This paper presents a neural network based approach to the identification and control of an
experimental natural circulation loop. The aim of the model is to predict the dynamical …
