Nonlinear water temperature control experiment for microreactor group actuated by Peltier devices

In this paper, operator based nonlinear water temperature control experiment for microreactor group actuated by Peltier devices is proposed. Considering heat transfer, heat conduction, and thermal radiation feat, nonlinear thermal models of aluminum plates and tubes that structures the microreactor group are obtained. Therefore, the temperature change of aluminum becomes the part of an input to the tube. First, nonlinear thermal models of aluminum plates and tubes that structures the microreactor are shown. Then, an operator based nonlinear water temperature control system for the microreactor is setup. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed models and methods are confirmed by experimental results.
