Basic and Advanced Regulatory Control: System Design and Application, 3e Textbook & Supplement Set

Wiley, 2017

Basic and Advanced Regulatory Control: System Design and Application is an intermediate-level book that explains how to implement basic and advanced regulatory control strategies in wet process industries. Instead of focusing on mathematical systems theory, the book relies on the engineer's or technician's practical experience and knowledge of processes to illustrate successful control strategy applications. After summarizing the characteristics of processes and feedback control loops, the focus shifts to applying advanced regulatory control (ARC) strategies to achieve significant economic benefits. The latter part of the book introduces the next level of control—advanced process control (APC). New topics include expanded coverage of set-point weighting controllers, a more detailed discussion of valve problems, a control algorithm for dead-time processes, broader coverage of cross-limiting control systems and a new heuristic technique to improve "as-found" tuning. End-of-chapter exercises suitable for both beginner and experienced engineers or technicians have been added. The Third Edition includes a "carry-in-the-toolbox" aid specifically designed for those who tune controllers as part of their daily routines. This compact guide provides quick access to the parameters and calculations needed for tuning feedback controllers, covering topics like improving as-found tuning and adjusting for dead time and non-cascade control. The bonus material, Derivation of Equations in Tables 6-8 through 6-12, has also been updated and expanded, providing another helpful resource.
