Abstract
Fuzzy reasoning based modeling of heuristic control rules are employed for control of batch beer fermentation. The effect of different types of membership functions, viz., line, triangular and phi membership functions is evaluated for the fuzzy subset. Various fuzzy model based controllers are presented using two approaches, namely simple fuzzy controller of few rules (FCFR) and rigorous fuzzy controller of many rules (FCM R), and also applied for the temperature control of fermenter. Zadeh's logic and Lukasiewicz's logic are adopted for computing the compositional rule of fuzzy logic inference. The results demonstrate that the proposed fuzzy controllers show better performance than the conventional controllers. FCFR approach provides better control performance, but needs optimum tuning or selection of gains for the fuzzy input and output variables, whereas FCMR approach is preferred due to flexibility in the operation of many control rules. Further, FCMR approach is free from optimum tuning or selection ...
