Aplicación computacional para el control de llenado de tanques de almacenamiento y mezclas de combustibles con aditivos

Abstract

In the following internship report, the development of the objectives and activities proposed in the internship "Computer application for the control of the filling of storage tanks and fuel mixtures with additives", which consists of supplying the need, specifically, in the fuel dispatch plant of Aguazul (Casanare) to have an automated system and supervision of the dispatch process. For this purpose, it is proposed in the first instance, a review of the systems currently used to carry out the process, and to determine its subsequent use in the application that will be proposed in this project in order to optimize the processes. From this, an application will be designed that allows, through a PLC and an HMI interface, the supervision, control and storage of the system information, based on the norms and criteria that regulate the use and manipulation of fuels. Likewise, the system will allow to monitor the different variables of the process, and if necessary, in a manual or automatic way, it will allow to make decisions in case of possible events that may occur. As a final part of the project, a review of the proposed system will be made through simulations, proposing a base case for its study and determine the functionality of the program, on the other hand, a user's manual will be proposed for the application in order to be used by the personnel or person who wishes to use the system.
