Description
Advanced Temperature Measurement and Control offers a comprehensive overview of the essential components needed to leverage the latest advancements in smart and wireless temperature measurement and control strategies. It provides a foundational understanding of temperature sensors and recent developments in wireless technology. The influence of sensor types and installation methods on measurement accuracy and speed is clarified. It also offers guidance on choosing between thermocouples and resistance temperature detectors.
This book covers the temperature control requirements for different types of equipment and introduces control systems designed to meet specific temperature control objectives. The appendices feature solutions to exercises, essential data for heat transfer, a unified approach for tuning controllers and equations for estimating process dynamics.

Person
Gregory K. McMillan, CAP, has more than 50 years of experience in industrial process automation, with an emphasis on the synergy of dynamic modeling and process control. He retired as a Senior Fellow from Solutia and a senior principal software engineer from Emerson Process Systems and Solutions. He was also an adjunct professor in the Washington University Saint Louis Chemical Engineering department from 2001 to 2004. McMillan is the author of numerous ISA books and columns on process control, and he has been the monthly Control Talk columnist for Control magazine since 2002. He started and guided the ISA Standards and Practices committee on ISA-TR5.9-2023, PID Algorithms and Performance Technical Report, and he wrote "Annex A - Valve Response and Control Loop Performance, Sources, Consequences, Fixes, and Specifications" in ISA-TR75.25.02-2000 (R2023), Control Valve Response Measurement from Step Inputs. McMillan's achievements include the ISA Kermit Fischer Environmental Award for pH control in 1991, appointment to ISA Fellow in 1991, the Control magazine Engineer of the Year Award for the Process Industry in 1994, induction into the Control magazine Process Automation Hall of Fame in 2001, selection as one of InTech magazine's 50 Most Influential Innovators in 2003, the ISA Life Achievement Award in 2010, and the ISA Mentoring Excellence award in 2020. He has a BS in engineering physics from Kansas University and an MS in control theory from Missouri University of Science and Technology, both with emphasis on industrial processes.
