This course builds on the theory learnt in the course Basics of Control Engineering and it covers more advanced topics with a particular emphasis on practical implementational and application aspects of control design. The topics covered in the course include: typical configurations of industrial analogue and digital PID controllers, variants and modifications of PID algorithm (practical PID versus textbook PID algorithm), experimental tuning of PID controllers, self-tuning and adaptive PID controllers, on/off and three-point controllers and the control performance achievable by these simple controllers. Further the more complex control structures are treated (cascade control, time delay compensation etc.) and the question of controller structure selection for typical control loops (temperature, pressure, flow etc. ) is discussed. An attention is also paid to actuators (in particular control valves and electrical drives) and to their influence on control loop performance. Finally the industrial HMI/SCADA software packages are treated and an introduction to communication in distributed control systems is given.

Students will understand the functionalities offered by modern industrial control systems and other automation equipment. They will be able to make qualified selection and tuning of control algorithms and to design and commission control systems for usual industrial applications.
