Development of a Process Instrumentation and Control Laboratory

这个项目是为了建立一个过程仪表和控制实验室，它将作为本科控制课程的补充，具有相同的标题，这是该机构控制选项的主要课程。该项目侧重于使用现代仪器进行实际过程控制回路的设计和实现。我们的目标是，在完成实验课程后，学生将学习过程控制的实践和理论方面。为此目的，将购买一个由六台配备数据采集卡的个人电脑组成的网络，用于软件分析和设计以及使用数字计算机控制动态系统。将介绍典型的换能器，具体的过程和系统将使用市售仪器，执行器和控制器进行控制。该项目还将使可编程逻辑控制器的学生介绍，广泛应用于工业今天。

This project is to develop a Process Instrumentation and Control laboratory which will complement an undergraduate control course, with the same title, which is the main course in the Controls Option at this Institution. The project is focused on practical process control loop design and implementation using modern instrumentation. The goal is that after completing the course with the laboratory, the students will have learned practical as well as theoretical aspects of process control. To this end, a network of six PCs equipped with data acquisition cards will be purchased for both software analysis and design and for controlling dynamic systems using digital computers. Typical transducers will be introduced and specific processes and systems will be controlled using commercially available instrumentation, actuators and controllers. The project will also enable the introduction to the students of programmable logic controllers, as used extensively in industry today.
