Lecturer: Sayyed Mahmoud Reza Pishvaie

Status (in the study program):

Compulsory course in under-graduate study

Aims/Scope/Objectives: The students are acquainted with engineering judgment, analysis and design of control systems in chemical processes. The basic aim is to familiarize student with key components and behavior of dynamical systems. The students learn the approach how to model the lumped dynamic systems through the convenient formulation and suitable tools. The graduates of this study are equipped with theoretical and practical knowledge of both instrumentation and control engineering formalism. This is especially the case when they are encountered with Chem./Process Eng.-oriented problems.

Syllabus:

·         Introduction to process control systems.

·         Mathematical backgrounds, La' Place Transform.

·         I/O Modeling, Transfer functions.

·         First-order systems, (Jacobian) Linearization.

·         Second-order systems.

·         Other dynamical systems.

·         Single-loop feedback systems.

·         Instrumentation.

·         Closed-loop Transfer function.

·         Stability.

·         Root locus.

·         Stability vs. Performance.

·         Frequency response.

·         Bode' diagrams.

·         Bode' diagram, Controller synthesis.

·         Nyquist diagrams.
