Synopsis

This text contains a very practical engineering orientation with many real-world industrial control examples and problems. Coverage includes plantwide control and the interactions between steady-state design and dynamic controllability. MATLAB is used as a computer-aided analysis tool. Additionally, many examples and an extensive selection of problems are included.

About this title

Synopsis:

Intended for undergraduates, this text covers those area of process control that all chemical engineers need to know. Analysis of closed loop dynamics in the time, Laplace, frequency and sample-data domains are covered. Designing simple regulatory control systems for multivariable processes are also discussed. The practical aspects of process control are presented: sizing control valves, tuning controllers, developing control structures and considering interaction between plant design and control. The book includes many real industrial control examples and problems.
