Textbook in PDF format
This book covers the most important topics that people working as process control engineers and plant operators will encounter. It focuses on PID control, explains when to use P-, PI-, PD or PID control as well as PID tuning methods. It includes difficult to control process nonlinearities such as valve stiction, sensor problems. The book explains advanced control strategies that are necessary when single loop control give insufficient results.
Written by one of the best-seller authors in the field. Developed over decades of teaching to students and industrial practitioners. Contains high quality images, simulations as well as technical drawings.
