Abstract:
The purpose of the discipline is to introduce the student to the systems for automatic control of basic
technological parameters: temperature, level of liquid and embankmentable materials, pressure, fluids
expenditure, composition, density, viscosity, humidity. The typical schemes which are considered, can be
applied in different industries. This subject is based on knowledge gained in the modules: Control Theory,
Processes Control – 1, etc. The knowledge obtained in this course is applied in modules: Design of
Automatic Control Systems and in the final Diploma Project.
Course contents:
Automatic control of basic technological parameters. Automatic control of temperature. Automatic control of
pressure. Automatic control of fluid’s expenditures. Automatic control of dosing of materials. Automatic
control of level. Automatic control of composition, density, viscosity and humidity. Standard schemes.
Teaching and assessment:
Lectures are presented in the traditional way and visualized with slides. The laboratory sessions are
conducted with laboratory manual and work in teams in cycles of two hours every other week in a university
laboratory. The students prepare the reports and defend them. The course assignment is developed by
students themselves with the use of a computer and professor’s consultancy. The final mark for the
discipline is formed on the basis of knowledge shown in the written exam.

Abstract:
The course’objective is to systemise, strengthen and deepen theoretical and practical knowledge about a
wide range of problems, related to control systems design, such as the choice of the system structure, the
control algorithm, the control system adjustment, as well as the choice of the components for system
implementation, schemes development.
Course content:
Smoothing and approximation of the experimental step response function industrial plant. Choice of the
system structure. Choice and adjustment of the controller. Dynamic analysis. Control system engineering.
Schemes development. Graphical performance. User manual development.
Teaching and assessment:
Each student independently develops one task. The practice sessions are two hours a week. Consultation is
provided in the computer labs. At the end of the semester the students prepare a written report for the work
done. The project is defended in the last week of the semester. The final mark is formed on the basis of
project implementation, its defence and the student’s work during the practice sessions.
