The tuning of proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control loops was an important change at HollyFrontier’s Navajo Refinery in Artesia, N.M. Its hands-on, “mandraulic” culture was no longer cutting ...

Proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control is one of the most common types of automatic control used in the power industry. A PID controller continuously ...

Designed for engineers and technicians, the classes cover basic terminology and building blocks of process control as well as fundamentals and advanced process control techniques using ControlSoft's ...

Every plant in the process industry most likely has several control loops that do not perform well. Although there are many factors that may negatively affect control loop performance, a few of these ...

Power plants–especially coal-fired boilers–pose a set of process control problems unparalleled in other industries. Rapid load ramps, continuous unit demand changes, variable fuel quality and process ...

Only through proper troubleshooting and then solving the underlying problems can control loop performance be improved. Process design certainly plays a role in control loop performance, but experience ...

More engineers are turning to reinforcement learning to incorporate adaptive and self-tuning control into industrial systems. It aims to strike a balance between traditional ...

Machines and processes are controlled using many strategies, from simple ladder logic to custom algorithms for specialized process control, but proportional-integral-derivative (PID) is the most ...

Model Predictive Control (MPC) has emerged as a versatile and robust strategy in modern control engineering, enabling controllers to predict future system behaviour and optimise performance over a ...
