This 3-day course is designed for process and control engineers who are applying DeltaV Predict and Predict Pro. It provides practical examples of how to determine the benefits of MPC application and how this control may be used to meet specific application requirements. Students will gain hands on experience through lab exercises based on realistic dynamic process simulations.

Course 7201 DeltaV Advanced Control

Topics

• How to Justify an MPC Project
  - Evaluating the Cost of Process Variation
  - Estimating the Reduction in Variation that is Possible Using MPC
  - Calculating the Benefit of Maximizing Throughput When Plant Production is Restricted by Input Limits or Measurable Constraint

• Meeting Application Requirements
  - Insuring Disturbance Inputs are
  Independent of Other Process Inputs
  - Meeting Control Requirements when
  the Response Times are Very Different
  - Understanding the Design and Testing of an Integrating Process
  
• Tailoring Control Performance
  - Placing more Emphasis on Selected
  Control or Constraint Parameters - Improving Control Performance when the Process is Deadtime Dominant
  - Compensating for Large Changes in
  Process Gain or Dynamics
  - Minimizing the Impact of Process
  Noise on Control Performance
  
• Predict Pro
  - Applying Predict Pro on Large Processes
  - Optimizing with Predict Pro
