About this title

Synopsis

Volume 1 of 2, Analysis of Dynamic Systems, explains the procedures essential to understanding the dynamics of industrial chemical processes and methods for evaluating the effects of process dynamics on normal steady state operation. It discusses in detail, optimum steady state control, classical servomechanism control, modern (optimal) control, and purposeful periodic operation. Emphasizes multivariable and nonlinear features of most chemical processes. Describes both the advantages and shortcomings of various design approaches. Treats required mathematical approaches in clear, logical and unified manner. Provides broadest practical coverage of both analysis and synthesis. Presents a thorough survey of basic system concepts and techniques.
