Popis: | We propose a mandatory invasive mechanical ventilator prototype for severe COVID-19 patients with volume and pressure control operation modes. This system comprises basic pneumatic elements and sensors. Its performance is similar to commercial equipment, and it presents robustness to external disturbances and parametric uncertainties. To develop a control strategy, we propose a mathematical model with a variable structure that incorporates the dead zone phenomenon of the proportional valve, and considers external disturbances and parametric uncertainties. Based on this model, we propose a global control strategy that is based on pressure and flow regulation controllers, which use the active disturbances rejection control structure (ADRC). In this strategy, we propose robust state observers to estimate disturbances and the signals necessary for implementing the controllers. We illustrate the performance of the prototype and the control strategy through numerical simulations and experiments. We also compare its performance with PID controllers. These results corroborate its effectiveness and the possibility of its application in invasive mechanical ventilators with a simple structure, which can significantly help critical care of COVID-19 inpatients. |
