About the book
The presence of non-linearities, such as stiction and deadband, places
limits on the performance of control valves. Indeed, in the process
industries, stiction is the most common valve
problem, and over the last decade numerous different techniques for
overcoming it have been proposed.
Detection and Diagnosis of Stiction in Control Loops represents a comprehensive
presentation of these methods, including their principles, assumptions,
strengths and drawbacks. Guidelines and working procedures are provided for
the implementation of each method and MATLABĀ®-based software can be
downloaded, enabling readers to apply the methods to their own data. Methods
for the limitation of stiction effects are proposed
within the general context of:
- oscillation
detection in control loops
- stiction
detection and diagnosis
- stiction
quantification and diagnosis of multiple faults
