    Characteristics of Controller Modes

    Proportional

    Simple

    Inherently stable when properly tuned

    Easy to tune

    Experiences offset at steady state

    Proportional-plus-reset

    No offset

    Better dynamic response than reset alone

    Possibilities exist for instability due to lag introduced

    Characteristics of Controller Modes (contd)

    Proportional-plus-rate

    Stable

    Less offset than proportional alone (use of higher Kc possible)

    Reduces lags, i.e., more rapid response

    Proportional-plus-reset-plus-rate

    Most complex

    Rapid Response

    No offset

    Problems with Open Loop Method

    Sensitive to parameter estimation error (especially dead time)

    Simplified form of process model may not match the actualprocess

    Controller not in normal operating mode

    Limitations on step size may make it difficult to interpret theresponse - especially in the presence of noise

    Closed loop response may not be acceptably damped for a setpoint change

    Tuning by Closed Loop Testing

    Process near normal operating point

    Controller in AUTOMATIC

    GAIN only; no RESET nor DERIVATIVE

    Induce sustained oscillation by gradually increasing controller gain

    Note the ultimate period (Pu) and ultimate gain (Kcu)

    Use correlation to determine controller tuning parameters

    Problems with Closed Loop Method

    May not be possible to drive process into oscillating condition

    May require several tests - longer testing time - than open loopmethod

    Cannot guarantee how much the PV - nor the controller output- will swing

    Good Points with Closed Loop Test

    Controller is operating in its normal mode (automatic)

    No artificial form of the process model imposed

    Minimal uncertainty in the data

    23/45

    2011, ISAEN00W4 (1.4)

    Review of Key Points

    The controller action works together with the control valveoperation

    Controller law or algorithm determines the output from thecontroller in response to loop error

    Control modes must be selected based on the processcharacteristics and response

    Three mode control is not always the most effective selection

    The control modes are interactive and dynamic

    FEEDFORWARD CONTROL:

    The final control device (valve or set point oflower level flow controller) is manipulated by ameasurement of the process disturbance, ratherthan by the output of a feedback controller

    Feedforward Control: Requirements

    The disturbance must be measurable

    We must know what to do to compensate for the disturbance

    We must know when (i.e., on what time schedule) to take thecompensating action

    Review of Key Points

    Blending and mixing can be done with ratio control systems

    Cascade control is when the output of one feedback controller isthe set point for another controller

    The inner loop of a cascade system should have a much fasterspeed of response than the primary control loop

    Feedforward control may be used with feedback control toprovide correction in anticipation of a disturbance.

    Sample Exam Question - #1

    According to ISA Standard 5.1, Instrumentation Symbolsand Identification, the terms record or recording canapply to which of the following:

    I. Graphical data in a strip or circular chart

    II. A table of numerical data in a computer memory

    III. A listing of alarms by a control computer

    A. I and II

    B. II and III

    C. I and III

    D. I, II, and III

    Sample Exam Question - #2

    The control algorithm for a flow control loop is underconsideration. It is determined that the flow must bemaintained near set point with little or no offset and the signalwill be rapid response and noisy. The best choice of controlmodes for this loop will be:

    A. Proportional Mode

    B. Integral plus Derivative

    C. Proportional plus Integral

    D. Proportional plus Integral plus Derivative

    Sample Exam Question - #3

    A secondary steam distribution system is being used to controlthe heat input to a heat exchanger. It has been determined thata control problem will exist since the varying steam headerpressure will be a major disturbance. Define the primarycontrolled variable and what control scheme could beemployed to provide the best response with the least amount ofmeasured variable offset.

    A. Product outlet temperature with header pressure feedforward control

    B. Steam header pressure with outlet temperature adjusting set point

    C. Product outlet temperature with temperature cascading steam flow

    D. Product outlet temperature with direct feedback control.

    Sample Exam Question - #4

    Compared to a control loop with no dead time (pure timedelay), a control loop with an appreciable dead time tends torequire:

    A. Less proportional gain and less integral action

    B. More proportional gain and less integral action

    C. More proportional gain and more integral action

    D. Less proportional gain and more integral action
