Als wesentlicher Garant f{\"u}r den Erfolg der Forschungsarbeit muß die auf das jeweilige Projekt genau abgestimmte Meß- und Regelungstechnik angesehen werden. Hierbei z{\"a}hlt neben der Auswahl geeigneter Hardwarekomponenten auch die Softwareentwicklung unter einer leistungsstarken und zuverl{\"a}ssigen Programmierumgebung. Anhand des Aufbaus dreier Versuchsanlagen im Technikumsmaßstab soll das Anforderungsprofil an die Meßtechnik bis hin zur Umsetzung innerhalb der Anlage skizziert werden. Der Heißgasfiltrationspr{\"u}fstand im Heizkraftwerk der RWTH Aachen dient der Beobachtung des Reinigungsverhaltens keramischer Filterelemente bei der Heißgasentstaubung im Temperaturbereich bis 850 Grad C. Wesentlich f{\"u}r die Meßwerterfassung ist hierbei die Kopplung eines Orion-Datenloggers der Firma Schlumberger mit LabView 4.0. Im Hochtemperaturofen des Lehrstuhls werden instation{\"a}re Druckmessungen an einer keramischen Filterkerze w{\"a}hrend eines Abreinigungsimpulses bei 950 Grad C mit hoher Samplingrate durchgef{\"u}hrt. Hierbei {\"u}bernimmt eine durch LabView 4.0 angesteuerte E-Series Karte der Firma National Instruments die Signalaufnahme. Die katalytische Schadstoffreduktion und Entstaubung heißer Rauchgase bei 900 Grad C sind Ziele der Untersuchungen in einer erstellten Versuchsanlage mit einem Quarzglasreaktor. Die Signalerfassung und -konditionierung erfolgt {\"u}ber SCXI in Verbindung mit LabView 4.0, die Steuerung der Anlage {\"u}bernehmen zwei Multifunktionskarten (National Instruments).},

  abstract  = {Ceramic hot gas filters are widely used in combined cycles based on pressurised fluidised beds. They fulfil most of the demands with respect to cleaning efficiency and long time durability, but their operation regarding the consumption of pulse gas and energy still has to be optimised. Experimental investigations were carried out to measure the flow field, the pressure and the gas temperature inside the filter candle during pulse jet cleaning. These results are compared with the results of a numerical procedure based on a solution of the two - dimensional conservation equations for momentum and energy. The observed difficulties handling different flow regimes like highly turbulent flow as well as Darcy flow simultaneously are discussed.},
