Synopsis

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 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
