Control Loops are the feedback mechanisms that work between a
sensor or site control and a set of system or component
settings-such as temperature or pressure. Understanding the various
dynamics that come in to play when trying to control any active
system can be complex and difficult, but this book seeks to make
that effort much easier and more applicable to the day-to-day job
site. The new edition will have greater coverage of on new
software-driven control loop systems and control loop analytics.
Readers will find: Review of control loop fundamentals, including
PID controllers, loop dynamics and common tuning methods Coverage
of the effects of various kinds of dynamics, including process,
controller, measurement, valve and nonlinear dynamics New chapters
on computer-aided control loop tuning methods and smart systems
Summaries with useful control loop equations and algorithms
Extensive practical plant based knowledge to achieve the best
automation system BACK COVER DESCRIPTION: This fully updated
on-the-job reference contains all the automation and control
information you need to make timely decisions, and maximize process
capacity and efficiency. Featuring contributions from 50 top
technical experts, Process/Industrial Instruments and Controls
Handbook, Sixth Edition covers the latest technologies and
advances. More importantly, the book helps you select the right
instrumentation, install and maintain it correctly, and leverage it
to maximize plant performance and profitability. You will get all
you need to know to execute a successful automation project
including time-saving tables, lists of essential best practices,
and hundreds of topic-defining illustrations. Coverage includes:
*Process variable measurements*Analytical measurements*Control
Network communications*Safety instrumented systems*Control systems
fundamentals*PID control strategies*Continuous and batch
control*Improving operator performance*Improving process
performance*Project management*And more
Control engineers, mechanical engineers and mechanical technicians
will learn how to select the proper control systems for axial and
centrifugal compressors for proper throughput and surge control,
with a particular emphasis on surge control. Readers will learn to
understand the importance of transmitter speed, digital controller
sample time, and control valve stroking time in helping to prevent
surge. Engineers and technicians will find this book to be a highly
valuable guide on compressor control schemes and the importance of
mitigating costly and sometimes catastrophic surge problems. It can
be used as a self-tutorial guide or in the classroom with the
book's helpful end-of-chapter questions and exercises and sections
for keeping notes.
