Description
The temperature Process Control course enables students to practice the control temperature processes, including heat exchanger and heated tank processes. Students raise and lower water temperature to preset levels using manual control and auto-tuning methods. They control the flow rate through the heat exchanger using a motorized valve, and create variable demand and supply disturbances by introducing cooled water from the reservoir tank.
