What is a process?
Process: “ The Conversion of a feed material into a product using chemical and physical operations “Process is often used to mean
The processing operationThe processing equipment

Objectives of Process Control
To maintain the process at desired operating conditions safely and efficiently while satisfying environmental and product quality requirements.

Why Process Control is needed?Specific Objectives of Control
• Increased product throughput• Increased yield of higher valued products• Decreased energy consumption• Decreased pollution• Decreased off-spec product• Increased Safety• Extended life of equipment• Improved Operability• Decreased production labor

Control Engineering Terminology
Controlled Variables (CV)Manipulated Variables (MV)Disturbance Variables (DV)Set-Point (SP)
![Page 10: Introduction to Process Control - Faculty Personal Homepage](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021007/6203951dda24ad121e4b16e3/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Controlled Variables (CV)controlled variables - these are the variables which quantify the performance or quality of the final productalso called output variables.
![Page 11: Introduction to Process Control - Faculty Personal Homepage](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021007/6203951dda24ad121e4b16e3/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Manipulated Variables (MV)manipulated variables - these input variables are adjusted dynamically to keep the controlled variables at their set-points.
![Page 12: Introduction to Process Control - Faculty Personal Homepage](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021007/6203951dda24ad121e4b16e3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Disturbance Variables (DV)disturbance variables - represent input variables that can cause the controlled variables to deviate from their respective set points also called "load" variablesDV are not adjustedDV may or may not be measured
![Page 13: Introduction to Process Control - Faculty Personal Homepage](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021007/6203951dda24ad121e4b16e3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Set Point (SP)Set Point signal = desired level of a controlled variableTo implement a change in the operating conditions, the set-point signal is changed and the manipulated variable is adjusted appropriately to achieve the new operating conditions.

Common types of processes
Continuous ProcessThe input and output flow continuously throughout the duration of the process
Batch ProcessThe feed is charged into a vessel at the beginning of the process then the vessel’s content is removed some time later
Semi-Batch Process:It is neither batch nor continuous

Continuous ProcessTubular Heat exchanger
Process fluid
Cooling medium
Process fluid is cooled by cooling waterCV: exit temperature of process fluidMV: flow rate of cooling waterDV: inlet temperature, inlet flow rate,…

Control Strategies

![Page 23: Introduction to Process Control - Faculty Personal Homepage](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021007/6203951dda24ad121e4b16e3/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Control StrategiesFeedback
The control variable (CV) is measuredMeasured value is compared to set pointThe control action is computed based on the errorReduce the effect of disturbance irrespective of their sourcesReduce the effects of changes in process on CVNo corrective action is done before CV is changed
![Page 24: Introduction to Process Control - Faculty Personal Homepage](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021007/6203951dda24ad121e4b16e3/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Control StrategiesFeedforward
The disturbance variable (DV) is measuredThe correction action to remove the effect of the DV is calculated and implemented. Needs a good model of the systemLimited. Not all disturbance variables can be measuredCorrection action is initiated before changes in CV are observed
![Page 25: Introduction to Process Control - Faculty Personal Homepage](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021007/6203951dda24ad121e4b16e3/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Feedforward Control:Distinguishing feature: measure a disturbance variable
• Advantage:
Correct for disturbance before it upsets the process.
• Disadvantage:
Must be able to measure the disturbance.
No corrective action for unmeasured disturbances.
Needs accurate model of the process
![Page 26: Introduction to Process Control - Faculty Personal Homepage](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021007/6203951dda24ad121e4b16e3/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Other Control StrategiesFeedforward+feedback
Feedforward+feedbackFeedforward and feedback can be implemented at the same timePractical approachFeedforward remove the effect of measured disturbance and feedback remove the effect of un-measured disturbances
Advanced control strategies

Economic Incentives for Advanced Process Control
Safe limit
Average
Average
Advance control can be used to reduce variability. This allows raising desired level closer to the safe limit
