History of Digital Control Instrumentation 1 – Session 09
DCSs? n n n Distributed Computer Systems, DCSs, are computer – based systems that are used to control processes In 1970 s the use of computers in process control became more prevalent than before It was called “direct” because a single computer was directly connected to a particular part of process. Disadvantages? The entire unit was shut down if a computer failed Instrumentation 1 – Session 09
Early Computer Control Instrumentation 1 – Session 09
Distributed Control Systems Instrumentation 1 – Session 09
DCS Operation n DCS is a series of distributed computer processors or nodes that are all interconnected via a computer network They are able to manage multiple process loops at one time If one node (a single computer in a data highway or computer network) goes down or fails signal can be rerouted to one of the other nodes and the process can continue Instrumentation 1 – Session 09
Individual Node Instrumentation 1 – Session 09
DCS Operation n n A DCS divides production control in a plant into several subparts or nodes Each node acts independently A node may include a considerable control loop A local computer in each node communicates with the host computer which is a central computer Instrumentation 1 – Session 09
DCS Operation n 1. 2. 3. The function of a typical DCS node can be explained as a series of steps as follows: The DCS node processes signals received from the control loop such as temperature, level, flow, pressure, and on/off signals The signals processed by the DCS are then converted from analog to digital through an A/D convertor The digital signals produced by the A/D converter are then forwarded to a local computer by a multiplexer (MUX) Instrumentation 1 – Session 09
MUX/DEMUX Functioning Instrumentation 1 – Session 09
DCS Operation 4. 5. 6. The local computer then processes the incoming information and sends out control commands based on internally programmed logic and instructions The control commands generated by the local computer are forwarded by the demultiplexer (DEMUX) to a digital – to analog D/A convertor The analog signals produced by the D/A converter are then forwarded to the appropriate valve or control element and the host computer Instrumentation 1 – Session 09

Chapter 17 - Objectives n Identify and describe types of control schemes n n n Describe a control scheme that allows the following modes n n n n On/off Lead/lag Feedback Feedforward Local manual control Remote manual control Local automatic control Remote automatic control Cascading control Match appropriate control schemes to a process Given a process scenario, design an appropriate process control scheme Instrumentation 1 – Session 09
Control Schemes n Two categories of control types: 1. Control schemes (on/off, lead/log, feedback, feedforward) 2. Control modes local manual local automatic control remote manual control remote automatic control cascading of the remote automatic control Instrumentation 1 – Session 09
Control Scheme n What is the impact of variability in the control part of this process? Should be the primary question asked when selecting a control scheme, sensors, and final control elements for each area of the process. Instrumentation 1 – Session 09
On/off control n n n Used when a controlled variable cycling above and below the setpoint is considered acceptable Common type of controls used in homes Ovens, central heat and air, and water heaters When a large control zone is not a problem in industry an on/off control is used High level point/low level point Instrumentation 1 – Session 09
Lead/Lag control n n How a process reacts to a disturbance e. g. , a temperature change leads to a pressure change Or, a measurement change lags a controller output change In a boiler system, lead/lag control specifically means to utilize both high and low selector relays to force the fuel to follow the airflow on a rising steam demand, and forcing the air flow to follow the fuel on a falling steam demand Instrumentation 1 – Session 09
Feedback control n Is a closed loop control strategy when error drives the controller output to change the position of the final control element to eliminate or minimize the error Instrumentation 1 – Session 09
Feedforward control n n Is a control strategy where the controller output is based on knowledge of the relationship between the output of the controller and the input received from the point in the process where the disturbance is measured. Feedforward control is designed to predict and prevent an error from occurring in the first place by changing the position of the final control element before the measured variable senses the change Instrumentation 1 – Session 09
