Process Control (BEng)

CHEN30192 Process Control (BEng) 10 Semester 2 Undergraduate Level 3 Peter Martin Unit coordinator 1 FHEQ level (Framework for Higher Education Qualifications) ' Last part of a Bachelors ' European Credit Transfer & Accumulation System Rating : 5.0 Introduction to process controller design with feedback and feedforward control strategies, understanding process dynamics and modelling, adoption of control strategies, dynamic modelling and control of chemical processes, synthesis and tuning of controllers. <div>Introduction to process controller design with feedback and feedforward control strategies, understanding process dynamics and modelling, adoption of control strategies, dynamic modelling and control of chemical processes, synthesis and tuning of controllers.</div>  The unit aims to:Create a solid understanding of process dynamics in time and Laplace space. Provide the foundations of the modelling of process dynamics and establish the links for practical implementation of control strategies. Deliver the basics of model-based control and use it for controller tuning. Students will be able to:ILO1.    Demonstrate concepts relevant to chemical process dynamics and develop related modelling skills. ILO2.    Link control related issues with the underlying mathematical formulations. ILO3.    Develop practical control strategies for chemical processes allowing the design and appropriate tuning of the control systems. ILO4.    Recognise different types of control designs and how they might be used. Fundamental aspects supporting the critical learning of the module will be delivered as pre-recorded asynchronous short videos via our virtual learning environment. These will be supported by synchronous sessions with master lecture content, Q&A, and problem-solving sessions where you can apply the new concepts.Surgery hours are also available for drop-in support.Feedback on problems and examples, feedback on coursework and exams, and support will also be provided through the virtual learning environment. A discussion board provides an opportunity to discuss topics related to the material presented in the module.Students are expected to expand the concepts presented in the session and online by additional reading (suggested in the Online Reading List) in order to consolidate their learning process and further stimulate their interest to the module.Activity Core Learning Material (e.g. recorded lectures, problem solving sessions)    24 Self-Guided Work (e.g. continuous assessment, extra problems, reading)    44 Assessment Revision/Preparation (e.g. test, final exam)    32 1 Written exam 100% BEng(Hons) Chem Eng BEng(Hons) Chemical Engineerin Third Year Mandatory N Reading lists are accessible through the Blackboard system linked to the library catalogue.
