Definition of a Process
A process is a part of a manufacturing plant in which material or energy is converted to other forms of material or energy
Change in pressure, temperature, speed, electrical potential, etc.

Decide
How much How long How quickly
Action
Manipulate Variable
16
Feedback
Because you take information about a process output and use it to control a process input (feedback) Process must be upset before deviation can be measured Always a lag in action due to steps

Process Variables
The following variables (one or more) will be found in the majority of process control applications:
Flow Level Pressure Temperature
There are many others, yet those above are found most often.
21
Mass
Coriolis Mass Thermal
(pounds per hour, kilograms per hour, etc.)
Velocity
Magnetic Oscillatory Turbine Ultrasonic
Inferential
Differential Pressure Target Variable Area
22
Pressure
Pressure Is Force Per Unit Area

Temperature Measurement

Other Terminologies
Resolution
Smallest scale increments
Sensitivity
Smallest detectable change
Hysteresis
Difference in measurement output when measuring input ascending and descending
Dead band
Range in which input signal may change upon reversal of direction without causing measurable change in output
31
Modern Instruments do not have to be calibrated upon a range change. Calibration means to compare this instruments readings for a selected set to a measurement standard in a standardized environment. And adjust if necessary Some of the more modern test instruments are shop standards Smart Instruments have their own built in standards, or at least characterization curves for sensor linearization.

Transducers
Many Final Control Elements in continuous control are valves, and valves use a pneumatic actuator. Most controllers are electronic and have an electronic output. A transducer (I/P) is used to provide an interface.

PI Algorithm
Integral action also known as reset average error over time

Gain adjustment
1 edt Ti
(minutes per repeat)
Integral action is used to eliminate the offset that occurs in a proportional controlled process when a load change or continuing error to one side of set point occurs. Operates on duration of error
45
PID Algorithm
Derivative action also known as rate Rate of error change over time
=
gain adjustment
+
derivative time adjustment (minutes)
integral time adjustment Derivative is used on slow processes to reduce over/undershoot, providing less excursion from setpoint and a quicker first return to setpoint. Operates of the rate of error change.
46
Tuning Objectives
Adjustment of gain, reset, and rate to achieve good process control
