- the train loading system 10 includes a reclaimer 12 that reclaims material, in this example ore, from a material bench, and a conveyor 14 arranged to convey the reclaimed ore to a surge bin 16.
- the rate of ore flow from the reclaimer 12 is measured, in this example by a weightometer 18 typically disposed 100 - 500m from the surge bin 16.
- a weightometer 18 typically disposed 100 - 500m from the surge bin 16.
- ore flows out of the surge bin 16 and into cars 22 of a train 20 as the train continuously moves under the surge bin 16 in the direction of arrow 24.
- the rate of ore flow from the surge bin 16 is controlled by opening and closing a clamshell (not shown).
- Figure 2 illustrates control components 30 of the train loading system 10. Using the control components 30, it is possible to maintain the bin level at a sufficient partially full level that an empty bin or full bin situation is avoided, and therefore a reclaimer or train stopping event is avoided.
- the control components 30 include a reclaimer flow rate measuring device, in this example the weightometer 18, arranged to measure the rate of ore flow from the reclaimer 12; a bin level sensor 34 arranged to measure the level of ore in the surge bin 16; an aim bin value 35 that defines the desired surge bin level 16; and a train speed controller 36 that determines an adjusted train speed 38 and an adjusted clam trim position 40 based on the measured reclaimer flow rate, the aim bin level 35 and the measured surge bin level.
- a reclaimer flow rate measuring device in this example the weightometer 18, arranged to measure the rate of ore flow from the reclaimer 12
- a bin level sensor 34 arranged to measure the level of ore in the surge bin 16
- an aim bin value 35 that defines the desired surge bin level 16
- a train speed controller 36 that determines an adjusted train speed 38 and an adjusted clam trim position 40 based on the measured reclaimer flow rate, the aim bin level 35 and the measured surge bin level.
- the rate of ore loaded into cars 22 of a train 20 is fundamentally limited by the reclaimer flow rate, since the reclaimer flow rate determines the rate that the surge bin 16 is filled, and therefore the required ore outflow rate from the surge bin 16 in order for the surge bin 16 to maintain a desired fill level. If a train is loaded at a consistently higher rate than the reclaim rate, the bin will empty. If a train is loaded at a consistently lower rate than the reclaim rate, the bin will fill.
- the train loading rate is defined by the ore outflow rate, and the ore outflow rate can be controlled by adjusting the speed of the train 20, since the train speed directly determines the clam position required in order to appropriately fill the cars 22 of the train 20.
- a loading rate plot 60 indicates that the loading rate of a car 22 of a train 20 is directly proportional to the train speed
- a loading time plot 62 indicates that loading time of the car 22 is also directly proportional to the train speed
- the loading rate of a car 22 can be considered to be directly proportional to the train speed because a faster train speed necessitates a faster flow rate and therefore a more open clam position in order to fill a train car.
- the following equation represents the relationship between loading rate (ore outflow rate from the surge bin) and train speed.
- Rate Out P * Speed (1 ) where Speed is the train speed, Rate Out is the required loading rate of a car in order to achieve a full car when the train is travelling at the Speed, and P is a proportionality constant.
- the proportionality constant P can be calculated as follows.
- the train speed controller 36 is able to set a 'feed forward' train speed that is appropriate for the current reclaimer flow rate, since it can be assumed that the reclaimer flow rate is also directly proportional to the train speed if the bin level remains constant.
- the output rate from the surge bin 16 was determined using known train speeds for seven different trains.
- the surge bin level was approximated using the difference between the bin output rate and the input reclaim rate during loading of the trains. Agreement with the measured bin level was found to be most accurate with a proportionality constant P of 3.25, instead of the proportionality constant P of 3.3 determined using the above equation (1).
- the train speed controller 36 is arranged to produce a feed forward train speed value based on the relationship between reclaimer flow rate and train speed defined in equation (2) above.
- a determination of the train speed required for a measured reclaim rate involves a balance between minimising speed disturbances and maintaining a stable bin level. If the flow rate into the surge bin 16 is not exactly equal to the flow rate out of the surge bin 16, small errors in the controller determined train speed can accumulate over time and lead to an undesirable bin level. Therefore, in order to maintain the bin level at a desirable level, direct feedback to the determined train speed is provided by determining a train speed error to apply to the feed forward determined train speed. The train speed error is calculated by determining an error between a measured bin level and the aim bin level 35.
- a feed forward control component which determines a feed forward train speed using the train speed/reclaim rate relationship defined by the above equation (2); and a feedback control component that adjusts the determined feed forward train speed using a train speed error calculated using an error determined between the measured bin level and the aim bin level 35.
- a feed forward control component which determines a feed forward train speed using the train speed/reclaim rate relationship defined by the above equation (2)
- a feedback control component that adjusts the determined feed forward train speed using a train speed error calculated using an error determined between the measured bin level and the aim bin level 35.
- the train speed controller components 50 include a feed forward controller 52 and a feedback controller 54 that together produce a train speed output 56 used to set the train speed.
- the feed forward controller 52 and the feedback controller 54 are arranged to calculate a respective feed forward train speed value and a train speed error value for each train car 22.
- the feed forward controller 52 receives a measured reclaim rate 64 from the weightometer 18. However, since the measured reclaim rate value is highly variable, the measured reclaim rate is filtered using at least one low pass filter 66. In this example, two 240s cascaded low pass filters having a gain of 1 are used that are defined by the following equation. where The filtered reclaim rate value is used by a train speed calculator 68 to calculate a feed forward train speed value based on equation (2) above.
- Figure 5 shows example reclaim rate plots 130 that include a measured reclaim rate plot 132 and a filtered reclaim rate plot 134.
- the filtered reclaim rate provides a time averaged value for the measured reclaim rate so that the high variability in the measured reclaim rate is not passed on to the feed forward train speed value used to set the train speed.
- the feed forward controller 52 also includes initialisation components that include a delay component 70 and an initialisation reclaim rate calculator 72.
- the purpose of the initialisation components is to initialise the feed forward controller 52 and ensure bumpless transfer as the train loading system 10 is switched from manual to automatic mode.
- the low pass filters 66 are initialised with an initialisation reclaim rate value that has been calculated using equation (2) based on a previous most recent measured train speed value. This is represented by the delay component 70.
- the feedback controller 54 receives a value for the aim bin level 35 representing a desirable bin level to avoid an empty bin or an overfilled bin situation, and a measured value for the current bin level 82.
- the aim bin level 35 and the measured value for the current bin level 82 are compared by a bin level error calculator 84 in order to obtain a bin level error value.
- the bin level error value is used by a discrete proportional integral controller to modify the feed forward train speed and thereby also change the bin level to a value closer to the aim bin level (because the train loading rate will also change as the train speed changes).
- the discrete proportional integral controller of the feedback controller 54 operates in accordance with the following equation.
- CntrllrOut Sat(CntrllrOuti-i) + Kp(error - errors) + Ki (t - tj-i) error (4)
- the feedback controller 54 includes an adder 86 that adds together the output of a time dependent error component 88 corresponding to the term Ki (t - ti-i) error of equation (4) above, the output of an error difference component 90 corresponding to the term Kp(error - errors) of equation (4) above, and the saturated controller output last calculated by the feedback controller 54 corresponding to the term Sat(CntrllrOu -- ⁇ ) of equation (4) above.
- the error difference component 90 includes an error delay component 94, an error change calculator 96 that differences the current bin level error and a bin level error previously calculated by the error calculator 84, and a proportional term constant Kp 98 that is applied to the calculated bin level error difference value calculated by the error change calculator 96.
- the output of the adder 86 is saturated by a feedback saturation component 100 in order to avoid integral windup, the feedback saturation component 100 defining a minimum saturated feedback value of -0.85 km/hr and a maximum saturated feedback value of 0.85 km/hr.
- the feedback controller 54 controls how much influence the saturated feedback value has on the train speed output 56 by applying a feedback constant 102 to the saturated feedback value.
- the train speed error value produced by the feed forward controller 52 is added to the feed forward train speed value produced by the train speed calculator 68 at adder 104 so as to provide a degree of error correction to the feed forward train speed value, and the result is saturated by a speed saturation component 106, the speed saturation component 106 defining a minimum saturated speed value of 0.45 km/hr and a maximum saturated speed value of 0.85 km/hr.
- Hysteresis of 0.05 and quantisation of 0.025 are then applied to the speed saturated value produced by the speed saturation component 106 by a quantisation component 108.
- the output of the train speed output 56 produced is used to set the train speed.
- the train speed controller 36 is implemented using a programmable logic controller (PLC), although it will be understood that other implementations are envisaged. Speed changes are calculated continuously, but in the present embodiment are only applied to the train once per car, in the present embodiment at the transitions between cars 22 under the surge bin 16.
- the train speed is continuously controlled during reclamation of material in a bench based on the current reclaim rate and the error between the current measured bin level and the aim bin level.
- Bench changes stop the reclaimer 12 for 3-15 minutes, and stopping the train to match this is highly undesirable for efficiency and cost reasons.
- the surge bin 16 reaches empty before a car 22 is full because of a transition between benches, which would necessitate stopping the train 20
- the speed of the train will automatically be reduced by the feedback controller 54 of the train control system 10 so that the ore outflow rate decreases.
- the aim bin level can be raised prior to transitioning benches in order to cause the amount of material in the surge bin 16 to increase to compensate for a future bench change wherein less material is delivered to the surge bin 16 by the reclaimer 12 and conveyor
- plots 140 representing operation of the feedback controller 54 are shown.
- the plots 140 include an aim bin level plot 142 representing the aim bin level set by the train speed controller 36; a measured bin level plot 144 representing the actual level of material in the surge bin 16; a bin level error plot 146 representing the bin level error output by the error calculator 84 of the feedback controller 54, that is, the difference between the actual bin level and the aim bin level; a saturated controller output plot 148 representing the saturated output produced the feedback saturation component 100 of the feedback controller; and a train speed error plot 150
- the aim bin level is increased prior to a bench change, which causes the bin level error to immediately increase in magnitude
- a negative increase in the bin level error causes the system to assume that the surge bin is emptying, which causes the train speed value at the train speed output 56 to reduce, the loading rate to reduce, and the material level in the surge bin 16 to increase, as shown at section 152 of the measured bin level plot 144.
- the level of material in the surge bin will reduce, as shown at section 154 of the measured bin level plot 144.
- the level of material in the surge bin will still increase, as shown at section
- the measured bin level plot 144 because the difference between the current bin level and the aim bin level is still negative. As shown in the measured bin level plot 144 at section 158, during reclamation of a bench the bin level is maintained close to the aim bin level by the train speed controller 36.
- the train speed error value moves between a maximum train speed increase value of about 0.13km/hr and a maximum train speed decrease value of about 0.13km/hr, depending on whether the current bin level is respectively above or below the aim bin level.
- the timing of raising of the aim bin level is determined by monitoring the amount of material in the current bench according to the following equation.
- BenchRemainTonnes is the amount in tonnes of material remaining in the current bench and TrainSpeed is the current train speed.
- the train speed controller 36 causes the aim bin level to increase.
- the trigger time value and the value of the raised aim bin level may be set according to the bench type, for example so that for some benches the aim bin level is increased earlier than others and to a different raised aim bin level.
- Table 1 below shows example trigger times and aim bin levels for different bench transitions.
- Table 1 The timing of lowering of the aim bin level is determined by appropriate site personnel, and approximately coincides with recommencement of ore flowing into the surge bin after a bench change.
- the train speed should be set to a constant reference speed and all control disabled. As a consequence, train loading will complete at a constant rate, unless the operator enters a new reference speed. Without control disabled, the train would slow down to the minimum speed unnecessarily as the surge bin empties.
- Optimal control of the trim of a train loadout clam is complex. However, it is understood that as the train speed varies, the trim requirement also varies such that as the train speed increases the trim should also increase (that is, the clam increasingly opens) to allow the flow rate to increase in response to the reduced time available to load a train car 22.
- the train loading system 10 uses a simple relationship between train speed and trim to determine the trim setting, without attempting to provide automatic control for variations such as product type, material flow properties or density.
- the system calculates a "base trim" which corresponds to an initial trim setting.
- Trim Current Trim - F(Current Speed) (7)
- F(Current Speed) is a function of the train speed using the current train speed for , as follows.
- the train loading system 10 then calculates a new trim value for each change in train speed calculated by the train speed controller 36 according to the following equation.
- F(New Speed) is the function (8) above using a new train speed for calculated by the train speed controller 36. It will however be understood that an operator may make occasional adjustments to the base trim, for example due to changes in product type, material flow properties or density. Trim changes are synchronised with train speed changes and applied at a transition between cars 22 of a train 20.
- the response of the speed of a train car 22 to an increase in speed of the train 20 varies depending on the position of the car 22 in the train consist. In general, however, it can be assumed that the car 22 will reach the speed of the train within the time it takes to load one car 22. For this reason, trim changes in response to train speed increases are delayed by one car.
