Simulation of Fuzzy PID Control for a Large Containership Speed at Slow Steaming Condition

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, a cycle mean value engine model was built, and the ship propulsion system model was developed by combining the engine model with propeller and ship model following a modular approach in MATLAB/Simulink environment. In addition, the fuzzy PID control theory was investigated and applied in the ship speed intelligent control system under different disturbance circumstances with emphasis at slow steaming condition. Finally, the simulation results indicate that the fuzzy PID controller can improve the dynamic performance of the ship speed control system, decrease oscillation as well as increase response speed.
