    1. The document describes an experiment to measure and control air flow using an orifice plate and PID controller. The objectives are to study volumetric and mass flow rate measurement using pressure drop, and to control mass flow rate using PID control. 2. The experimental procedure involves setting control valves, setting the controller setpoint, introducing a pulse load disturbance, and recording results to analyze controller performance under different PID settings. 3. The results and discussion section involves analyzing how the process responds under different PID parameters, the purpose of the load disturbance, and why a PI rather than PID controller is suitable for this process.

    EXPERIMENT 3: MEASUREMENT AND CONTROL OF AIR FLOW SYSTEM

    OBJECTIVE
    1. To study gas volumetric flow rate (Fv) measurement using the orifice plate-pressure drop
    (h) method, assuming the gas pressure/temperature (i.e. density) remain unchanged and
    at the values used in the sizing of the orifice.
    2. To study gas mass flow rate (Fm) measurement using the orifice plate-pressure drop (h)
    method, using the Perfect Gas Law to compute the gas density from the flowing pressure
    and temperature.
    3. To study gas mass flow rate (Fm) control using PID control mode.

    MV26 MV27
    MV28-MV29 MV30
    MV31 MV32-43

    3. Put the controller FIC-91 to manual mode and set the SV to 15kg/hr
    4. Set the first trial PID value ( Trial 1 ) accordingly to the table below

    Parameter Trial 1 Trial 2 Trial 3 Trial 4


    PB1 50 100 100 100
    TI1 6 6 6 6
    TD1 0 0 3 0

    5. Regulate the MV so that the PV fluctuate at set point and let the process stabilize for a few
    minutes.
    6. Switch ON the chart recorder
    7. Put the controller FIC-91 to Auto mode then quickly Introduce a pulse load disturbance by
    opening the MV8 by one turn for 5s
    8. Put back the MV8 to normal position
    9. Observe your result at chart recorder. Wait until the PV stabilizes at set point.
    10. Complete your table at result and discussion
    11. Repeat step 3-10 for trial PID value, trial 2 and 3.
    12. Put the controller TIC-92 to Auto mode and set the SV to 1000C
    13. Switch ON heater and let the PV stabilize at 1000C
    14. Repeat step 3-10 for trial 4
    15. Compare your result

    RESULT AND DISCUSSION


    Process Control & Instrumentation Laboratory BKF3791

    QUESTION

    1. What is your observation based on data trail 1,2,3 and 4 ? What is the relationship
    between these three data?
    2. What is the significant the introduction a sharp pulse load disturbance?
    3. Why PI controller is used instead of PID controller in this process? From your own
    understanding, how far the performance of the process if PID controller is applies on
    the process?
