Process Control and Applications

Syllabus

Course Objectives

Learn the scientific and engineering principles underlying process dynamics and

control

Apply and integrate engineering knowledge (mainly in chemical engineering) to

identify, formulate and solve process control problems

Use and apply modern computational techniques and tools (Matlab) for solving

process control problems

Become familiar with industrial control systems, such as level control, flow

control, pressure control, temperature control and concentration control mostly in chemical industry.

Course Content

This course will cover the fundamental theory underlining the practice of process control and its applications in the processing industry. Therefore, it will just be of elementary introduction from the analytical and synthetic perspectives in nature. The topics that will be covered are as following,

Introduction to Process Control: Incentives and motivation for process control. Mathematical Tools: Mathematical modeling of dynamic processes. Linearization

of nonlinear systems. Laplace transforms.

Response of open-loop systems: First-order systems, Second-order systems,

Higher-order systems, Time delays, Transfer functions.

Single-loop control systems: Transient response, Types of controllers. Stability of

closed-loop systems. Frequency response methods

State space systems and analysis: Single input and single output (SISO) systems

and Multiple inputs and Multiple outputs (MIMO) systems

Multiloop control system: Feedback-Feedforward control. Cascade Control. Ratio

Control. Time-delay compensation. Multivariable control systems.
