A Duke University-led team reports proof-of-concept evidence that a closed-loop PID control algorithm can automatically ...

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 ...

Researchers have developed a pressure-only method that plots two intraluminal pressure waveforms against each other to create ...

Learning the basics can ease loop tuning frustration and ensure stability. During plant operations, it seems that tuning control loops is an ongoing task, which can be a continual frustration to ...

Pilot pressure can be understood as the pneumatic control signal that defines the setpoint of a regulator. This pilot signal is generated by a separate pilot device in pressure control systems that ...

Feedback-control schemes for linear systems have been around since at least the 17 th century, regulating pressure and distance between millstones and then, famously, to control James Watt’s steam ...

Good building mechanical design requires a firm grasp of the mechanical engineering fundamentals (thermodynamics, psychrometrics, the fan laws, etc.). The same can be said about the BAS design needed ...
