Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
This guide to process instrumentation and their controls shows the practicing engineer how to select instruments and conduct measurements on process equipment. A discussion is included on how to use all types of control systems and how to deal with deviations in the system.
Bibliography: (page 353) and index.
Physical properties -- How instruments are selected -- Process measurements -- Flow of fluids in conduits -- Orifice flow meters -- Plant stream analyzers -- Installing process instruments -- Winterizing process instruments -- Alarms and shutdown systems -- Process control from square one -- Nature of process control systems -- Controller responses -- Optimum controller settings -- Variations on feedback control -- Control valves -- Realistic control valve pressure drops -- Sizing control valves -- Perspective on process computer control -- Operations centers.
