Process Dynamics and Control

3 credits · Undergraduate

Process instrumentation and control systems are discussed. Modelling of chemical processes is performed. Classical linear control theory and stability criteria for control system design are introduced. Design of PID controllers for chemical processes is discussed. Feedback control is discussed in depth, and algorithms for tuning PID controllers are presented. Feedforward, Cascade, Ratio, Time-delay Compensation, Adaptive, and Inferential control are presented.
