Objectives of the Course Students will be able to understand of basic instruments used in process control, transducers, transmitter, controllers, and actuators. The students are also expected to gain the skills required to analyse, model, and solve stochastic process control problems. Process control design and tuning skills for PID controllers will also be gained.
Course Content Measurement and Instrumentation for control of industrial processes: A short review of elements of process control loop. Simple identification techniques, correlation methods, PRBS. Minimization of error. PID design and tuning. Temperature, flow, pressure measuring methods and instruments. Instrumentation of flow, pressure and liquid level control loops.
