  • Performance of Feedback Control Systems
    Performance of Feedback Control Systems 13.1 □ INTRODUCTION As we have learned, feedback control has some very good features and can be applied to many processes using control algorithms like the PID controller. We certainly anticipate that a process with feedback control will perform better than one without feedback control, but how well do feedback systems perform? There are both theoretical and practical reasons for investigating control performance at this point in the book. First, engineers should be able to predict the performance of control systems to ensure that all essential objectives, especially safety but also product quality and profitability, are satisfied. Second, performance estimates can be used to evaluate potential investments associated with control. Only those con trol strategies or process changes that provide sufficient benefits beyond their costs, as predicted by quantitative calculations, should be implemented. Third, an engi neer should have a clear understanding of how key aspects of process design and control algorithms contribute to good (or poor) performance. This understanding will be helpful in designing process equipment, selecting operating conditions, and choosing control algorithms. Finally, after understanding the strengths and weak nesses of feedback control, it will be possible to enhance the control approaches introduced to this point in the book to achieve even better performance. In fact, Part IV of this book presents enhancements that overcome some of the limitations covered in this chapter. Two quantitative methods for evaluating closed-loop control performance are presented in this chapter. The first is frequency response, which determines the 410 response of important variables in the control system to sine forcing of either the disturbance or the set point.

    Event Guide November 12-13, 2018 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Pennsylvania Convention Center Process Solutions User Group WELCOME TO PSUG 2018! On behalf of Rockwell Automation and our leadership team, I want to thank you for joining us here in Philadelphia this year. We are excited to have you and look forward to learning about your business challenges and how collectively we can apply The Connected Enterprise to your operations and help you become leaders in your respective industries. Innovation is happening all around us and at a pace that can be hard to keep up with. It can be challenging to know where and when and how to invest in not only your processes and technologies, but also in the people that continue to be so fundamental to production. Simply modernizing systems is no longer enough. Running old processes on a new platform will not provide the long-term gains required to stay competitive in today’s markets. It will take a more holistic approach. Modernization in today’s rapidly evolving manufacturing and production environments, means looking across the spectrum of variables that affect operations. Whether it be optimizing productivity, improving energy management, or maximizing safety, it takes an entrepreneurial and innovative mind-set and an openness to see opportunity in areas perhaps once overlooked. During your time here, you will see and hear how Rockwell Automation is investing in its future so we can help you navigate yours. Investments like our new strategic partnership with PTC, a leader in industrial IOT, will allow us to accelerate the digital transformation across heavy and light industries and across all levels of business.

  • Neural Network Control of Autoclave Curing of Composite Materials
    NEURAL NETWORK CONTROL OF AUTOCLAVE CURING OF COMPOSITE MATERIALS Thesis Submitted to The School of Engineering UNIVERSITY OF DAYTON In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Master of Science in Chemical Engineering by Maria Claudia Baptista UNIVERSITY OF DAYTON Dayton, Ohio December, 1994 ABSTRACT NEURAL NETWORK CONTROL OF AUTOCLAVE CURING OF COMPOSITE MATERIALS Baptista, Maria Claudia University of Dayton, 1994 Advisor: Dr. C. William Lee A back propagation neural network has been developed to determine the temperature cure cycle of a fiber reinforced epoxy matrix composite material in an autoclave. The self-directed neural network controller performed temperature control by adjusting the set-point of the autoclave based on five sensor inputs. The curing process was simulated by a one-dimensional heat transfer model that included heat source and convective boundary conditions. These two programs, the simulator and the controller, were installed on two separate computers. The neural network controller was developed using NeuroWindows™ in the Visual Basic™ environment. The neural network controller used for testing consists of an input layer with five neurons that represent the process and material states, one hidden layer with six neurons, and an output layer with a single neuron for temperature set point adjustment. The neural network controller, when trained by a cure cycle for a given thickness panel, was able to 111 THESIS 35 08892 NEURAL NETWORK CONTROL OF AUTOCLAVE CURING OF COMPOSITE MATERIALS Approved by: C.

INTRODUCTION: Instrumentation is the science of automated measurement and control, or can be defined as the sci- ence that applies and develops techniques for measuring and controls of equipment and industrial processes. Process control has a broad concept and may be applied to any automated systems such as, a complex robot or to a common process control system as a pneumatic valve controlling the flow of water, oil or steam in a pipe. A basic instrument consists of three elements: Sensor or Input Device Signal Processor Receiver or Output Device To measure a quantity, usually is transmitted a signal representing the required quantity to an indi- cating or computing device where either human or automated action takes place. If the controlling action is automated, the computer sends a signal to a final controlling device which then influences the quantity being measured.

  • IT Security for Industrial Control Systems
    IT Security for Industrial Control Systems Joe Falco, Keith Stouffer, Albert Wavering, Frederick Proctor Intelligent Systems Division National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Gaithersburg, MD Email: (joseph.falco@nist.gov, keith.stouffer@nist.gov, albert.wavering@nist.gov, frederick.proctor@nist.gov) In coordination with the Process Control Security Requirements Forum (PCSRF) (http://www.isd.mel.nist.gov/projects/processcontrol/) Abstract The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is working to improve the information technology (IT) security of networked digital control systems used in industrial applications. This effort is being carried out through the Process Control Security Requirements Forum (PCSRF), an industry group organized under the National Information Assurance Program (NIAP). The PCSRF is working with security professionals to assess the vulnerabilities and establish appropriate strategies for the development of policies to reduce IT security risk within the U.S. process controls industry. The outcome of this work will be the development and dissemination of best practices and ultimately Common Criteria, ISO/IEC 15408 based security specifications that will be used in the procurement, development, and retrofit of industrial control systems. In support of this work this paper addresses the computer control systems used within process control industries, their similarities, and network architectures. A generic set of networking system architectures for industrial process control systems is presented. The vulnerabilities associated with these systems and the IT threats these systems are exposed to are also presented along with a discussion of the Common Criteria and its intended use for these efforts. The current status as well as future efforts of the PCSRF are also discussed.
