Process Dynamics and Control

by Thomas F Edgar Dale Seborg, Thomas F. Edgar, Duncan A. Mellichamp

This long-awaited second edition of Dale Seborg, Thomas Edgar, and Duncan Mellichamp's Process Dynamic and Control reflects recent changes and advances in process control theory and technology. The authors have added new topics, and enhanced the presentation with a large number of new exercises and examples, many of which utilize MATLAB and Simulink.

I read (parts of) chapters 1/2/3/4/5/6/8/11/12/15 for the TU Delft master course Process Dynamics & Control, it was helpful but also a bit hard to understand and confusing duo to different notations.

Waste of time since you can program PLC and DCS systems without the triple integration. let the computers do the work. just learn the fundamentals of gains, dead bands, limits and such. leave the book to collect dust on the shelf.

Was one of the best in explaining concepts..
No need for a professor to explain general ideas
