Description
Summary:Cascade control system is one of the popular and widely used for the petrochemical or oil refinery plant. The obtained desired result from the system; the controller of cascade control system should be designed in such way that it will satisfy all the requirements needed. This project challenges the author to study the comparison in performance of two controllers; the classical and robust cascade control system for a heatexchanger plant. Twomajor efforts for this projectare plant experimentation and computer simulation. Plant experimentation is conducted to identify the process model for temperature and flow plant model. These models are then used in the computer simulation to design and determine the performance for classical and robust cascade control system. The classical cascade control system does give the satisfy control performance compare to the robust cascade control system. However, the robust cascade control system is not suitable to use in the present condition of the plant and convenient to use for somecases only.
