Description
This second edition of this book introduces process control in an essentially practical manner. This time the book provides, in a single volume, a completely updated and comprehensive look at control in an industrial context, where maths matters less than making it work efficiently and safely. Andrew Parr is a practising engineer who has implemented a control system of high complexity in a challenging environment: on one of the most advanced steel plants in the world. This book therefore only covers the theory necessary to understand what is going on, making it a guardian of quality for industrial, process and control engineers actually working on real applications. Because of this clarity and rigour, the handbook also acts as a guide for students and those entering industry for the first time.
