Abstract

In this paper the concept of an industrial CACSD (computer aided control system design) system is outlined which is geared at making available efficient theoretical control system design methods to the process industry. After discussion of general requirements the focus is set on the ICAC (Industrial Computer Aided Control) toolbox developed for MATLAB/SIMULINK™. This toolbox is aimed at industrial users like process engineers or commissioners who are not necessarily specialists in control system design. The ICAC toolbox provides specific methods for the design of linear and nonlinear single and multivariate control systems composed of industrially available function blocks such as PID controllers and typical nonlinear characteristics. Furthermore it allows simplified optimisation of arbitrary industrial control schemes. The ICAC user interface supports 3 user levels with different degrees of functionality adapted to the user's knowledge.
