Abstract

Our experiences from continuing education on the field of industrial process control show that the control engineering courses for an industrial staff are much more interesting and more useful when they are practically oriented. That was one of the reasons to build a process laboratory that consists of a pilot chemical plant highly equipped with industrial sensors and actuators, different industrial controllers and monitored by a computer control system. A process laboratory serves a number of purposes: development and application, research, training and education. The technological process equipment is fully supplied with industrial control elements so the great number of different real-life experiments can be performed. Modern control equipment assures that a variety of contemporary control techniques and metodologies (feed-forward control, single and multiloop feedback control, advanced control, etc.) can be tested and implemented. The paper describes in detail the configuration of the process laboratory, its control system and the software tools used during the educational process.
