Automated Continuous Process Control pulls together-in one
compact and practical volume-the essentials for
understanding, designing, and operating process control systems.
This comprehensive guide covers the major elements of process
control in a well-defined and ordered framework. Concepts are
clearly presented, with minimal reliance on mathematical equations
and strong emphasis on practical, real-life examples.
Beginning with the very basics of process control, Automated
Continuous Process Control builds upon each chapter to help the
reader understand and efficiently practice industrial process
control. This complete presentation includes:
* A discussion of processes from a physical point of view
* Feedback controllers and the workhorse in the
industry-the PID controller
* The concept and implementation of cascade control
* Ratio, override (or constraint), and selective control
* Block diagrams and stability
* Feedforward control
* Techniques to control processes with long dead times
* Multivariable process control
Applicable for electrical, industrial, chemical, or mechanical
engineers, Automated Continuous Process Control offers proven
process control guidance that can actually be used in day-to-day
operations. The reader will also benefit from the companion CD-ROM,
which contains processes that have been successfully used for many
years to practice tuning feedback and cascade controllers, as well
as designing feedforward controllers.
