ControlSoft Has a Simplified Moisture Control Strategy
ControlSoft's MANTRA Advanced Process Control
Software (APC) is
designed to handle the most difficult moisture control situations, such
as
- When a dryer consists of multiple burners
- When the speed
of a belt changes due to production requirements
- When water content
of feed stock changes from batch to batch
- Where moisture is usually
measured at the end of the dryer or oven, but with no on-line measurements
ControlSoft's application note, AN314, uses the example of a multiple-zone
oven to show how decoupling the variables in the control loop can compensate
for interactions that produce errors. The implemented Coordinated Controller
(CC) block rejects any disturbances to the process and optimizes the
controller outputs during steady state control. AN314 also includes a
block diagram showing how a simplified moisture control strategy can
be implemented in Mantra Advanced Process Control software.
