Formål

The primary objective in this course is to learn some fundamental process control theories and utilize the computational tools that enable the students to design and tune control loops for various chemical and biochemical processes.

The ultimate objective is to give the students the capability to further study more advanced topics and tools on their own, and to generalize them beyond the methods and applications learned.

Indhold

In this course, concepts and tools necessary to understand the fundamental theories of process control are presented - i.e., Process dynamic stability analysis, and the mathematical tools and methods needed. Fundamental process control theories being taught include various PID control loop design and tuning techniques. Furthermore, simple empirical modelling techniques for systems with unknown dynamic models are discussed. Finally one or more of some practical-oriented advanced control methods are presented in cooperation with industrial and academic partners with practical experience in the area.

• 1. Review of PRI course material, prerequisites for process control & MatLab-Simulink
• 2. Process Dynamics, State Space, Laplace, & Transfer functions
• 3. Response analysis and stability of first & second order dynamic systems, and Interacting & non-interacting process
• 4. Overview of Control System Design
• 5. Feed Back, Feed Forward & Ratio control - PID design & tuning
• 6. Advanced Single-Loop Control System, Cascade control, Inferential control
• 7. Case Study - Bioreactor modelling & control

Bedømmelse

Deliver a solution report to an exam project - 7-scale marking with external censor-examiner.

The report evaluation is primarily based on the ability of the student to explain, relate, and apply the techniques learned to the case study in the exam project. The assessment is also partly based on the ability to generalize the solution method beyond the information given by suggesting an outline for further work with new hypothesis and technical approach.
