A hybrid intelligent control for industrial rotary kiln plant
This paper presents a new hybrid intelligent control (HIC) scheme that combines the techniques of expert control and fuzzy neural networks. The HIC consists of a knowledge base, information pre-processor and intelligent coordinator in an hierarchical structure. The basic idea is to give an effective control strategy to complex controlled plant using a knowledge-based coordinator so as to achieve the desired performance. The results of simulation as well as temperature control for an industrial rotary kiln furnace were performed to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
