Oil-water two-phase flow exists widely in many industries. Accurate measurement of flow velocity is of significance for quantify the volume or mass flow rate as well as monitor the operation safety. A non-intrusive one-side Continuous Wave Ultrasonic Doppler (CWUD) sensor is presented for measuring the overall superficial velocity of oil-water two-phase flow. The one-side CWUD sensor consists of two-chip transducer with resonant frequency of 1MHz, both of which are installed at the bottom of test pipe, and the sample volume cover the whole radial direction of pipe cross-section. The Doppler shift signal collected by ultrasonic sensor is directly related to the average velocity of dispersed phase within the sample volume of CWUD. The overall superficial flow velocity is derived by a linear correction of measured average velocity, based on the analysis of average Doppler shift properties in different flow conditions, i.e. water continuous flow and oil continuous flow. Dynamic experiments were conducted at a horizontal oil-water two-phase flow loop. It can be found that the average Doppler shift within the sample volume increases with overall superficial flow velocity, however, varies with different continuous phases at the same overall superficial flow velocity. The results show that the mean relative error of overall superficial flow velocity is 3.45%.

In this paper, the anti-windup compensator design using event-triggered strategy for linear systems subject to actuator saturation is investigated. Different from the existing result with prescribed anti-windup compensator gain, the main contribution of this paper is that a sufficient condition is presented for anti-windup compensation with event-triggered control and an iterative algorithm is formulated to obtain the anti-windup gain. Moreover, an event-triggering condition involving an exponential term is introduced in order to avoid Zeno behavior when using output feedback control. Numerical example is given to show the validity of the proposed method and the trade-off between the size of the domain of attraction and communication resources saving.

Model Predictive control (MPC) is an advanced strategy for the control of multi-variable and constrained dynamical systems. Tube-based MPC is a robust control technique that handles uncertainties present in the model. Since full state information is seldom available in practical systems, the estimation error must also be taken into account in addition to model uncertainties to achieve closed-loop stability and constraint satisfaction despite estimation and model errors. In this paper, we propose a novel strategy for the design of a tube-based output feedback MPC which is independent of the estimation method employed. We formulate a control policy by choosing a candidate estimate that is consistent with the reachable sets of the system under control. The proposed method can be combined with any estimation scheme as long as the assumed error bounds are satisfied. We show that the proposed method is recursively feasible, robustly exponentially stable, and performs better than other available strategies.
