PID loops are a central component of modulating boiler control systems with applications ranging from basic steam header pressure control to cascading 3-element drum level control. A modern ...

Except, that is, “when you consider the aging workforce and the institutional knowledge of processes and instrumentation that has been slipping away.” Thus, advances in ...

It is a common situation in electronics to have a control loop, that is some sort of feedback that drives the input to a system such as a motor or a heater based upon a sensor to measure something ...

The controller contains the “control algorithm,” or control logic equation. The most common control algorithm is called PID, which stands for Proportional (P)-Integral (I)-Derivative (D). When the ...
