| Course contents : | Dynamic modelling of chemical systems Revision on Laplace transform Flowchart analysis and transformation Model linearisation Identification of reduced models from a measured response curve Transfer functions Frequency response analysis, Bode diagram Control actions : PID control Stability of controlled systems Tuning PID controllers Influence of dead time on control quality Synthesis based on stability : gain and phase margins Feed forward control. Cascade control Introduction to multivariable control : variable coupling, RGA analysis, decoupling. | ||||||||
| |||||||||
| Course objective : | Introduction to practical methods used to control chemical processing operations (heat exchange, reactors, distillation) Gaining notions allowing a chemical engineer to discuss with a control engineer | ||||||||
| |||||||||
| Prerequisites : | Modelling of basic unit operations (reactors, heat exchangers) both in steady state and in dynamics Solving differential equation systems (linear and non-linear) | ||||||||
| |||||||||
| Workshops : | Illustration of concepts discussed during the lectures using simulations (Control Station software) Identification of an approximate model from an experimental response curve. Tuning the parameters of a PID controller; influence of parameters on control efficiency. Some more complex control schemes : feedforward, cascade control, decoupling. | ||||||||
| |||||||||
| Organization : | 2 hrs lecture and 2 hrs practice each week | ||||||||
