(a) nacsse@fceia.nr.ed.ar, (b) sjnco@fceia.nr.ed.ar ABSTACT The qadrple-tank process has been proposed as a benchmark for mltivariable control system design. This paper addresses the design in the bond graph domain of a robst controller having the volmetric flows of two pmps as maniplated variables and the level of the two lower tanks as the reglated otpts. The basic control objectives, expressed in terms of desired closed-loop energy and power-dissipation fnctions, are captred in the bond graph domain means a so-called Target Bond Graph, and the controller design is performed via Bond-Graph prototyping. The basic control law is frther robstified against parameter ncertainties, measrement deviations and falts sing the diagnostic bond graph concept, what leads to an additional loop consisting in a PI-law also being expressed with a physically meaningfl bond graph sbsystem. Some casal maniplations on the for-tank bond graph allow to extend to this mltivariable case the techniqe developed to solve the simpler monovariable two-tank control problem. Keywords qadrple-tank system, bond graph prototyping, robst falt-tolerant control, non-linear energy-based control.. INTODUCTION The qadrple-tank system proposed in (Johansson 2) trned into a very poplar benchmark allowing to test different control algorithms for mltivariable processes. It is a Two-Inpt Two-Otpt or TITO nonlinear plant consisting of for interconnected water tanks fed by two pmps, whose linearized model has a mltivariable zero, which can be made minimm or non-minimm phase by simply changing the position of two distribtion valves. This system has been sed to test and design several control schemes. In (Abdllah and Zribi 22) a bibliographical review and three different control schemes are presented; gain schedling, a linear parameter varying controller and inpt-otpt feedback linearization have been compared, measring the pressre of the for tanks. In (Johnsen and Allgöwer 27) an interconnection and damping assignment pls passivity based control (IDA- PBC) algorithm for the minimm phase configration of the for-tank system is presented showing simlation and experimental reslts. Limon, et al. 2 present a robst model predictive control (MPC) algorithm for level tracking. In both cases the level of the for tanks are measred. This paper addresses the design in the Bond Graph (BG) domain of an energy-based nonlinear control law which only measres the pressres of the two bottom tanks. The control system design objectives are to track the levels (or pressres) of the two bottom tanks, to reject distrbances originated in model ncertainties and measrement errors, and to be tolerant to some interconnection falts. Falt tolerant control (FTC) can be classified in two main categories, Passive Falt Tolerant Control (PFTC) and Active Falt Tolerant Control (AFTC). Both approaches are sally complemented in the praxis to improve the performance and stability of the falt tolerant system (Blanke, et al. 26). efer to (Zhang and Jiang 28) for a bibliographical and historical review on FTC. The passive approach defines a niqe control law to achieve the control objectives even in the presence of a falt. Generally speaking, the passive approach ensres stability and confers robstness nder falts to the control system, bt there exists a trade-off between performance and robstness (Isermann 26). Althogh this paper follows a PFTCapproach, some concepts commonly fond in the design of AFTC controllers are sed. The active approach modifies the control law according to the falts occrred, so that in this approach a falt detection and isolation (FDI) phase is mandatory before making a decision on how to reconfigre the control law. Analytical redndancy relationships (A), which cont among the many soltions sed to generate residal signals for FDI, have been implemented in the BG domain via the Diagnostic Bond Graphs (DBG) techniqe presented in (Samantaray, et al. 26). Using the plant inpts and plant measrements, residal signal are generated that depend on the model parameters and the real plant parameters. Nacsse and Jnco (2) address the PFTCproblem of a two-tank system in the BG domain sing 87

2 an energy and power shaping method (Jnco 24). This method first expresses the control system specifications in terms of desired closed-loop energy and power dissipation fnctions, proceeds frther captring both fnctions in a so called Target Bond Graph (TBG) that represents the desired closed-loop behavior, and concldes constrcting the controller via Bond Graph prototyping. This prototyping is sch that the copling of the reslting controller-bg and the plant-bg renders the whole eqivalent to the TBG. In Nacsse and Jnco (2) the basic control law obtained in this way is robstified with additional terms derived considering a Diagnostic Bond Graph (DBG) of the closed-loop the nominal control system represented by the TBG (originally proposed nder ideal assmptions) is fed with the actal reference signals and measred plant otpts. Ths, the residal signal obtained from the closed loop DBG (CL-DBG) is a measre of the error between the desired and the actal dynamics of the control system. So, the control law aims at making the residal signal vanish in time, making the closed-loop system to behave asymptotically like the original TBG. The rest of the paper is organized as follows. Section 2 reviews some backgrond reslts and smmarizes the main reslts presented in Nacsse and Jnco (2). Section 3, revisiting this previos reslt on the two-tank system, addresses some BG maniplations that simplifies the controller and, simltaneosly, provides a way to extend the design method employed in the simpler system to the mltivariable for-tank process which in shown in Section 4. Next, Section 5 presents some simlation responses that prove the good dynamic response of the control system and, finally, Section 6 addresses some conclsions. 2. BACKGOUND AND PEVIOUS ESULTS This section briefly smmarizes the main ideas on performing energy shaping and damping assignment directly in the BG domain throgh BG prototyping and recalls their application to solve a control problem on a two-tank system as presented in Nacsse and Jnco (2). This reslt will be revised in the next section as a prelde to the development of the main reslt in this paper, the design of a controller for the qadrple-tank benchmark process. 2.. Energy- based control in the BG domain The power and energy shaping control techniqe defines the control problem as a stabilization one, choosing desired closed-loop energy- and powerdissipation fnctions, and obtaining the control law throgh eqations that match the control open-loop energy fnction (a kind of control Lyapnov fnction, see Sontag 998) and the desired closed-loop fnctions. Passivity-based control on port-hamiltonian models cont among the most sccessfl (Ortega, et al., 22, Ortega, et al., 28). In the BG domain, the closed-loop specifications are expressed by a so-called Target Bond Graph (TBG) representing the eqivalent closed-loop behavior. In order to obtain the control law, the controlled sorces which provide the maniplated variables in the BG model of the plant are prototyped (meaning that their behavior is expressed means BG components) in sch a way that their power-interconnection with the rest of the plant BG which is called a Virtal BG (VBG) matches the TBG.The control law is obtained from the VBG by simply reading the otpts of the prototyped sorces with the help of the casal assignment in the VBG. This method is exemplarily performed below on a two-tank system. For more details refer to (Jnco 24) Control via BG-prototyping the 2-tank system As shown in Figre, the tanks are located one above the other, the pper tank discharging into the lower tank. Both tanks are fed with a niqe inpt flow splitted between them throgh a distribtion valve whose parameter, determinates how the inpt flow is distribted to the tanks as indicated by the BG in Figre.

To enforce the desired closed-loop dynamics specified by the TGB, the Virtal BG (VBG) of Figre 3 is constrcted. It shows how to proceed in order to obtain the control law. The left half of the figre is obtained prototyping the controlled power sorce in sch a way that access is gained to the chosen otpt, the pressre x, and an overall eqivalent behavior to the TBG is achieved. The first objective is achieved via the exact compensation of the Tank2 pressre on the pmp over the distribtion valve and of the discharge of Tank2 on Tank. The second objective is reached first adding the virtal elements with negative gains that cancel the own dynamics of Tank and later bilding the incremental dynamics arond the reference pressre for Tank via the insertion of the virtal elements and (shapes the closed-loop energy) and (damping assignment). a 2 P ref C C a VBG P C C C H Figre 3 Virtal and plant BG.

As no objectives are imposed on Tank2 and its dynamics is hidden in closed-loop, its stability mst be analyzed after the controller has been designed, property that can be easily verified in this case. Pertrbed closed-loop dynamics. Becase of parameter dispersion, falts, modeling errors, sensor limited precision, noise, etc., neither the model nor the measrements are exact. To deal with this it is convenient to think the control inpt as composed by two terms as in (5), where is the rated part of, i.e., the control inpt part that performs the power and energy shaping nder ideal plant and measrement conditions. In the same expression, is the nknown controller part de to modeling errors, parametric dispersion, falts, etc. The BG of Figre 4 reflects this sitation. = + δ P e Figre 4 Pertrbed TBG. 5 Under this sitation the closed-loop dynamics no longer satisfies (3) bt (6). = + C obstifying the control law The CL-DBG is defined injecting the pressre tracking error (as measred on the real control system) into the TBG throgh modlated sorces and collecting a residal signal as shown in Figre 5. x x ref x e Figre 5 Proposed CL-DBG.

Note however that this does not necessarily generalize, since the reslting strctre depends on the TBG. = () 3. THE TWO-TANK POBLEM EVISITED In this Section the two-tank problem is revisited. First, a casal maniplation of the original system BG is shown which leads to a simplification of the control law and will be advantageosly sed in the process of deriving the control law for the qadrple-tank system. Second, a BG interpretation of the robstifying additional term is provided. 3.. Casal maniplation and simplified control law In Figre the flow from Tank2 into Tank is compted by the -element representing the discharge orifice of the former. Ptting in derivative casality the pper C-element (models the potential energy stored in the pper tank) yields the BG of Figre 6, where the discharging flow is compted as the sm of the incoming flow from the sorce and the otpt flow to the pper C element, i.e., =.

However, eqation (2) which reslts from the above maniplation performed on the BG has the advantage of showing that its last term can be eliminated from the control law as it is an evanescent pertrbation, i. e., it vanishes in steady state, and as sch it does not affect the eqilibrim point. Doing so yields the control law (3) which can be implemented with the sole measrement of.

BG interpretation of the robstifying term This sbsection revisits the reslt of (Nacsse and Jnco 2) smmarized in Section 2.3 of this paper in order to provide a BG implementation of the additional term of the control law given in (). The TBG defines the closed loop dynamics of the system. To robstify its behavior it is necessary to inject an additional control action. In order to analyze this problem in the BG domain a concise word BG version of Figre 9 is presented in Figre. Departing from Figre, Figre 2 shows the word BG of a power interconnection proposed as a means to provide the additional control action. There, the word BG block named mdbg mst be capable of rejecting all of the above-mentioned distrbances. C a P Figre 9 Virtal and plant BG. P2 C 2 C Pe C.

Figre 5) (see Appendix B for a brief description of the DBG for FDI prposes). This residal measres the error between the PTBG and the TBG and is sed to generate an additional control action forcing this error to vanish in steady-state (as well as the residal itself).

Indeed, with constant distrbances at the otpts of both, the I-element integrates its inpt effort ntil it is driven to zero. At the same time, the I-element keeps at its otpt a constant flow-vale which exactly cancels the sm of the -flows and, ths, generates a zero-flow sitation at the inpt of the C-element, which in trn keeps in zero, which is precisely the control objective. The stability of this sitation depends on the elements being strictly dissipative (Jnco 2), which is of corse ensred by design. 4. APPLICATION TO THE FOU-TANK BENCHMAK POBLEM The for-tank system depicted in Figre 7 is a TITO nonlinear plant consisting of for interconnected water tanks fed by two pmps, whose linearized model has a mltivariable zero, which can be made minimm or non-minimm phase by simply changing the position of two distribtion valves.

As the first step developing the mltivariable control law, a casal maniplation is performed on the original BG of Figre 8 as shown in Figre 9. Similarly as in the two-tank case, again the discharge flows of the pper tanks are expressed not as compted by their associated -elements bt as the difference between the flows of the sorces mins their net inpt flows ( and ). This maniplation permits to constrct the new BG given in Figre 2. This BG exhibits two internal variables and, which in the seqel are going to be treated as virtal control inpts. Seen from the bonds associated to these two axiliary flow variables the qadrple-tank problem appears as two decopled two-tank problems. Hence, the mltivariable problem is strongly simplified, as the previosly developed procedre can be first applied to each sb-problem and then the overall control law be recovered sing the casal relationships relating the 2 92

The parameters sed in the simlations, shown in Table I, were obtained from (Johansson 2), where are the cross section areas of the tanks, related to the tanks hydralic capacities by the relation = where is the liqid (water) density and is the gravitational acceleration. The parameters of the mdbg are = = and = =.. Table I. Simlation parameters Parameter Vale, 28, 32,.7,.57 Using the control laws (6) and (7) with noisy measrements, with normal distribtion and amplitde =., of the bottom tanks pressres, the simlation scenarios involve abrpt falts in the system. To show the robstness of the control laws, the sed parameters are -% and +% for those related with Tank and Tank2 respectively. For illstration prposes the simlations show tanks levels instead of tanks pressres. The first simlation scenario, Scenario_, consists of a minimm phase configration with valves positions in =.3 and =.2. This are rated vales sed to parameterize the control laws. In this scenario two seqential falts occrred at time =2 the vale of the cross section area of otlet hole of Tank2 is increased by 5% (forcing the same increment in ); and at time =5 the vale of the valve position changes to = x x_ref x2 x2_ref x3 The simlation responses for Scenario_ are shown in Figre 2 and Figre 22, which show that despite the falts occrrence the control system behaves as expected and the bottom tanks levels follow their references.

CONCLUSIONS This work addressed the design of a robst controller for a mltivariable for-tank system in three stages. A (partial) energy shaping and damping assignment control system design techniqe in the bond graph domain was first applied to obtain an almost-exact I/Ofeedback linearizing controller for a simpler two-tank problem. The controller is jst almost-exact becase a x4 es_ es_ APPENDIX A ESIDUAL SINKS The residal sink component injects the necessary effort or flow in order to make vanish the power conjgated variable into the sink. A residal sink element can be interpreted as an energy store where it parameter tend to zero. For example, an effort residal sink can be interpreted a C element in integral casality = If the parameter C tends to zero, then is determined by the algebraic eqation =.

APPENDIX B DIAGNOSTIC BOND GAPH The Diagnostic Bond Graph was first presented by (Samantaray, et al. 26) for nmerical evalation of analytical redndancy relationships (A). The As are calclated to perform FDI in an AFTC frame. Basically, the DBG is obtained from a BG model of the plant injecting the plant measrements and inpts throgh modlated sorces. The residal signal is obtained by measring the power co-variables of the modlated sorces, see Figre 26. eading directly from the BG the residals are = + + 2= + 8 As can be noted in (8), the residals depend on system parameters. If the model represents perfectly the controlled system, then the residal signals are zero. The differential casality is an advantage in FDI, becase no initial states are necessary to evalate the residals. 95
