With the advent of modern computer technology, the field of Artificial Intelligence is showing a definite utility in all spectrum of life. In the field of control, there is always a need for optimality with improved controller performance. In this paper, the feasibility of Fuzzy Logic as an effective control tool for DC motors is dealt with. The Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) is showing a better performance than conventional controllers in the form of increased robustness. In this paper, the role of Fuzzy Logic as a controller and its implementation is studied

Renewable Energy Sources

A hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) is a hybrid vehicle which combines a conventional propulsion system with a rechargeable energy storage system (RESS) to achieve better fuel economy than a conventional vehicle. Modern mass-produced HEVs prolong the charge on their batteries by capturing kinetic energy via regenerative braking, and some HEVs can use the internal combustion engine to generate electricity by spinning an electrical generator (often a motor-generator) to either recharge the battery or directly feed power to an electric motor that drives the vehicle.

Renewable Energy Sources

We have introduced a microcontroller controlled thermoelectric generator(a turbine free system) which transforms geothermal energy, one of the renewable energy sources, to directly electrical energy and then the system was tested and its performance analysis is explained. In the system, energy transformation is provided by the thermoelectric modules. Since changeable DC voltage depending on temperature difference is obtained by the thermoelectric modules which are used to charge a battery or accumulator. The regulator circuit and inverter circuit are used in order to obtain the values 5V DC, 12V DC and 220V AC in the electrical energy. System control signals are arranged by using the PIC16F877 microcontroller in the system. The system is quite useful to meet electrical energy needs easily, cleanly and cheaply from the geothermal sources.

Renewable Energy Sources

At the present time, virtually all of the world’s transportation needs are supplied by fuels derived from petroleum, also known as crude oil. Gasoline, diesel, jet fuels are examples of transportation fuels that are produced from petroleum. The combustion of petroleum in motor vehicles results in emission of gases associated with global warming, acid rain and urban air pollution. Using hydrogen as fuel can fundamentally change our relationship with the natural environment. Hydrogen boasts many important advantages over other fuels. So, it is the fuel of choice in this paper for energy.

Automation

Many industries have a need to treat water to obtain very high quality water for demanding purposes. Industrial wastewater treatment covers the mechanisms and processes used to treat waters that have been contaminated in some way by commercial activities prior to its release into the environment or its re-use. This is most commonly done by manually controlled devices. With the development in technology, this process can be automated. In this paper, we have described the automated industrial wastewater treatment process using PLC technology. This process involves treatment in two phases namely, primary and secondary stages. Here the steps are made automatic using sensors and timers of a PLC. The wastewater is first primarily treated where solid wastes settle down and lighter debris and grease rise to the surface to form a crust. In the primary stage, the working is based on the principle that when the water level drops enough so that the Low Level float switch is off (down), the PLC will open the valve to let more water in. Once the water level raises enough so that the High Level switch is on (up), the PLC will shut the inlet to stop the water from overflowing. The secondary stage involves biological treatment using the same principle. This treatment gives a new dimension for the automation of such manual processes.
