Advanced process control (APC) refers to a broad range of techniques and technologies implemented within industrial process control systems. Advanced process controls are usually deployed optionally and in addition to basic process controls. Basic process controls are designed and built with the process itself, to facilitate basic operation, control and automation requirements. Advanced process controls are typically added subsequently, often over the course of many years, to address particular performance or economic improvement opportunities in the process..

Industrial Instrumentation

About the Subject:

Instrumentation is the variety of measuring instruments to monitor and control a process. It is the art and science of measurement and control of process variables within a production, laboratory, or manufacturing area. An instrument is a device that measures a physical quantity such as flow, temperature, level, distance, angle, or pressure. Instruments may be as simple as direct reading thermometers or may be complex multi-variable process analyzers. Instruments are often part of a control system in refineries, factories, and vehicles.

Process Control

About the Subject:

Process control is an engineering discipline that deals with architectures, mechanisms and algorithms for maintaining the output of a specific process within a desired range. For instance, the temperature of a chemical reactor may be controlled to maintain a consistent product output. Process control is extensively used in industry and enables mass production of consistent products from continuously operated processes such as oil refining, paper manufacturing, chemicals, power plants and many others. Process control enables automation, by which a small staff of operating personnel can operate a complex process from a central control room.

Topics to be covered in this Seminar:

Need for process control –Interacting and non-interacting systems – Continuous and batch processes – Lumped and Distributed parameter models – Heat exchanger – CSTR – Reset windup – Practical forms of PID Controller-I/P converter - Pneumatic and electric actuators – Valve Positioner – Control Valves – Characteristic of Control Valves– Modeling of pneumatic control valve – Commercial valve bodies – Control valve sizing – Cavitation and flashing – Selection criteria-Evaluation criteria –Tuning– Determination of optimum settings for mathematically described processes using time response and frequency response approaches – Ag-Feed-forward control – Ratio control – Cascade control – Inferential control – Split-range and introduction to multivariable control –IMC– Model Predictive Control – Adaptive control – P&ID diagram.

Modern Electronic Instrumentation

About the Subject :

An electronic instrument or digital dash for short, is a set of instrumentation, including the speedometer, that is displayed with a digital readout rather than with the traditional analog gauges. Many refer to it simply as a digital speedometer. A measuring instrument is a device for measuring a physical quantity.

Applied Thermodynamics and Fluid Dynamics

About the Subject:

Fluid dynamics is a sub discipline of fluid mechanics that deals with fluid flow—the natural science of fluids (liquids and gases) in motion. It has several sub disciplines itself, including aerodynamics (the study of air and other gases in motion) and hydrodynamics (the study of liquids in motion). Fluid dynamics has a wide range of applications, including calculating forces and moments on aircraft, determining the mass flow rate of petroleum through pipelines, predicting weather patterns, understanding nebulae in interstellar space and modelling fission weapon detonation.

Object Oriented Programming

About the Subject:

Object-oriented programming (OOP) is a programming paradigm based on the concept of "objects", which are data structures that contain data, in the form of fields, often known as attributes; and code, in the form of procedures, often known as methods. A distinguishing feature of objects is that an object's procedures can access and often modify the data fields of the object with which they are associated In OOP, computer programs are designed by making them out of objects that interact with one another but also the types of operations that can be applied to the data structure.

Topics to be covered in this Seminar:

Why Object-Oriented Programming in C++ - Native Types and Statements –Functions and PointersImplementing ADTs in the Base Language-Data Hiding and Member Functions- Object Creation and Destruction- Polymorphism data abstraction: Iterators and Containers-Templates, Generic Programming, and STL-Inheritance-Exceptions-OOP Using C++-Data types, variables and arrays, operators, control statements, classes, objects, methods – Inheritance -Packages and Interfaces, Exception handling, Multithreaded programming, Strings, Input/Output.
