Reasons for Automation Quality : Better quality, fewer rejects Marketing:A marketing push may require increased production, re-branding, re-packaging or new formulations for example, or a requirement to search for new growth or markets Commercial: Higher output, lower utility costs, better yield, less labour It is to realize highest productivity enhancementsby intelligently connecting quality, speed, and cost and finding the optimal balance between all three

Evaluate Action Information Basics How Do We Control? Monitor
Basics An Everyday Example We monitor the temperature. Is it too cold or too hot? If so we adjust the tap to correct. Wait for a bit (system dynamics) If temperature OK then have shower Else if temperature not OK adjust again (but with benefit of knowing impact of last adjustment) Go to ‘Wait for a bit’ and repeat.

Flow Measurement 1. Velocity • Measure the velocity flowrate • Example : • Magnetic • Turbine • Ultrasonics 2. Inferential • Determine flow by measuring some other physical property such as differential pressure, area meter, impact force, etc and then correlate it to flow • Example : • Differential Pressure (DP) : Orifice, Pitot Tube, Venturi • Area Meter : Rotameter • Impact Force : Target 3. Mass • Measure the mass flowrate • Example : • Coriolis Mass Flowmeter • Thermal Mass
Flow Measurement 1. Velocity Flow : Magnetic Flowmeter • A magnetic field at right angles to the flow stream is generated • Two opposing electrodes measure the voltage produced by the fluid moving
Flow Measurement 1. Velocity Flow : Magnetic Flowmeter Video Time !!!
Flow Measurement 1. Velocity Flow : Magnetic Flowmeter Advantages : • Capable of handling extremely low flow • Having very low pressure drop (no obstruction), minimize pumping cost • Suitable for most acids, bases, waters, and aquaeous solutions, because the lining materials are corrosion resistant • Widely used for slurry services • Can be used as bidirectional meters Limitations : • Work only with conductive fluids (can not measure pure substances, hydrocarbons, and gases) • Electrical installation care is essential (Proper Grounding) • Flow measurement inaccuracy due to fluids with magnetic properties (Liquid Sodium and its solutions)
Flow Measurement 1. Velocity Flow : Turbine/Paddlewheel A rotor (like a propeller) is supported by bearings to allow free rotation in the fluid flow. As the blades spin in the moving flow a pickup device counts the passing rotor blades and generates a frequency. As this frequency is proportional to the rate of flow and we know how much quantity each pulse represents we can calculate the volumetric flow.
Flow Measurement 1. Velocity Flow : Turbine/Paddlewheel Advantages • One of the most accurate flow meter (use for trading) • Having a fast response • Not sensitive to changes in fluid density (though at very low specific gravities, rangeability may be affected) Limitations • Not recommended for measuring steam • Sensitive to dirt • Can not be used for highly viscous fluids or for fluids with varying viscosity • Potential for being damaged by over-speeding (esp. during commissioning or start up)
Flow Measurement 2. Inferential Flow : dP Orifice Plate Orifice plate : a flat piece of metal with a hole bored in it. p+ p- A dP (differential pressure) is created across the plate. D d
Flow Measurement 2. Inferential Flow : dP Orifice Plate An instrument that can measure dP is connected by pipework (called impulse lines) to a tapping point on either side of the plate. The square root of the dP measured is proportional to the flow. (Normally accounted for in the electronics of the measuring instrument)

Flow Measurement 2. Inferential Flow – dP Various
Flow Measurement 3. Mass Flow : Coriolis Effect Tube(s) are forced to oscillate at their natural frequencies perpendicular to the flow direction. The resulting Coriolis forces induce a twist movement in the tubes which is measured and is related to the mass flow.
Flow Measurement 3. Mass Flow : Coriolis Effect Video Time !!!
Flow Measurement 3. Mass Flow : Coriolis Effect Two most common types are the Straight Tube Curved Tube • Having a wider operating range, measures low flow more accurately • Available in larger sizes • Tends to be lower in cost • Having a higher operating temperature range • More sensitive to plant vibrations • Used mainly for multiphase fluids and for fluids that can coat or clog since the straight type can be easily cleaned • Having a low pressure loss • Reduces the probability of air and gas entrapment • Must be perfectly aligned with the pipe
Flow Measurement 3. Mass Flow : Coriolis Effect • Advantages : • Directly measures mass flow with high accuracy • High rangeability • Directly measure density • Highly independent of the flow profile and fluid properties (specific gravity and viscosity) • Can be used for many different applications, including corrosive fluids • Limitations : • High Price • Can not be used for liquids with any significant gas content • Not available for large pipelines • Not suitable for low pressure gases
