Course Description

ar student,Control in process industries refers to the regulation of all aspects of the process. Precise control of level, temperature, pressure and flow is important in many process applications.
This course introduces you to control in process industries, explains why control is important, identifies different ways in which precise control is ensured and illustrates the different set of instrumentation used to perform measuring tasks for temperature, pressure, flow and level.
The course includes extensivegraphics, cut sections, process schemes and 3Danimations to give you a virtual practical exposure on process control and instrumentation.
The objective of this course is twofold :
1. Break down for you all the process control and instrumentation principles into easily digestible concepts like feedback control, split range, controller tuning, transmitters, differential pressure gauges, etc...
2. Illustrate through 3D animations and cut-sections the main control instrument devices to measure temperature, pressure, flow and level like thermocouples, capacitive pressure gauges, coriolis flowmeters, etc...
As you proceed through the course, answer the questions in the attached pdf quiz files. These files are available at the end of each section.
We strongly advise you to do so before moving on in the course. Quiz exercises help you measure your progress toward meeting each sections learning objectives.
If you pass, wonderful. If not, you can review the videos and notes again orask us for help in the Q&A section.

Good Course. However Resources could be better, more animations could have been added (Could be developed) and finally the audio tone was very monotonus , need to be more engaging.

By Amir Scheid on 10/12/2020

Excellent course with very accurate information.

By Aprianto Romadhoni on 10/11/2020

Great course and 3d animation so then easy to understanding

By Aron Cseke on 10/5/2020

Not deep enough. With adding 20% more content this could have been much better. Too much of a classroom training, no PID simulations, no real tasks or mental challenges

i am more knowledgeable than before i started
