I - INTRODUCTION – II DEFINITIONS – III - EXCERCICE – IV CONTROL METHODS – V STABILITY OF CONTROLLED SYSTEMS – VI THE PID CONTROLLER – VII DESIGN OF FEEDBACK CONTROLLERS – VIII CASES STUDIES OF SPECIFIC SYSTEMS

The students will gain knowledge on the control of chemical processes through lectures, exercise and tutorials. Competencies that should be acquired at the end of this course are: - General knowledge about PID controllers - Write closed-loop block diagrams - Stability study of a controlled systems - Select and tune PID actions – Design a feedback control using frequency response techniques
