Prerequisites
Main purpose
To analyze a technical system, to specify automatic control requirements, and to select control strategy and controller. To give students a working knowledge about on-off control.
Knowledge
After the course, the student has knowledge of
• The structure and elements of a control system
• Selection of controller (P, PI, PD, PID), and determination of controller parameters
• Control strategies (simple feedback, cascade feedback, feed forward)
• Analytic (Bode plot, Root locus) and experimental controller (process reaction/ sustained oscillation) tuning
• Static and dynamic response
• Reference tracking and disturbance rejection
• Analysis of closed loop response, using mathematics and using simulation
• Logic control
• Specification of on-off control, using Grafcet diagrammes
• PLC programming
Skills
After the course, the student can describe a technical system, select a proper control strategy, and estimate automatic controller parameters, taking reference tracking, disturbance rejection, stability and dynamics into consideration.
Competences
After the course, the student has competencies to analyze a minor technical system, to specify control requirements, and select control strategy and controller.
Topics
Teaching methods and study activities
The total workload for the student is 136 hours.
The didactic method is classroom teaching, problem solving, homework.
Student Activity Model:
According to the Study Activity Model, the workload is divided as follows:
Category 1, Initiated by the lecturer with the participation of lecturer and students: 42 hours – 30%
Category 2: Initiated by lecturer with participation of students: 42 hours – 30 %
Category 3: Initiated by students with participation of students: 42 hours – 30 %
Category 4: Initiated by students with the participation of lecturer and students: 10 hours – 10%
