Abstract
The article presents a fuzzy controller design for using PLC as a control system. The subject of controlling is a mathematical model of a heat exchanger modeled in Simulink. The control algorithm was developed and configurated in the FuzzyControl++ configuration tools for the automation of technical processes. The goal of the paper is to explore the possibilities to implement and realize the potential of fuzzy control in areas belonging to the domain of classical regulation. Model of the closed loop control system in virtual environment is used to perform multiple simulations to detect the system behavior under various conditions. It is concluded that the applied control strategies can offer same properties in progress of regulation and offer better approach to intuitive knowledge base design and configuration parameters of controller.
