CH EN 4203 - Process Dynamics and Control

Introduction to practical and theoretical aspects of process control, process dynamics, empirical model identification and feedback control of single-input, single-output processes; PID algorithm, tuning of the PID controller, stability analysis, time and frequency domain design methods, digital implementation of process control, control system performance and limitations, and trade-offs in controller design. Enhancements to single-loop PID control; cascade control, feed-forward control, level and inventory control, and model predictive control.
