Process Control |
3. Automation range
3.1 Process Control
- Temperature, flow, pressure, level control
- pH control
- Ratio control (air/fuel, stoichiometry, etc.)
3.2 Safety and Interlocks
- Process safety
- Logic diagrams
- Cause x effect
3.3 Automation levels
In the beginning of the industrial revolution, automation was intended to
control (in the sense of: to keep constant) some process variable. Not
anymore...
3.4 Control and supervision
- Response time
- Control algorithms
- Process optimization
3.5. Traditional and advanced control
- Empirical models
- Model-based control
