This work describes an expert system for synthesis and design of control systems for chemical processing plants. We also outline the knowledge representation schemes for the expert system withobject oriented programming concepts on control system design,control objectives and their relationships to the knowledge structure shaped in this study —Task Frame Net Model. Based upon various control objectives, shortcut calculations, and several heuristics including control idioms,Intellite 3 -the expert system developed in this study — synthesizes interactively the plausible control structures for a specified distillation column and screens effectively those alternatives to find out the most reasonable one in The context of overall control objectives, operability, and other operational requirements.

The early detection and localization of faults in machines and drives is of primary interest to make further improvements of the reliability and safety. The conventional way is to monitor some important variables like temperatures, pressures, vibrations and to generate alarms if certain limits are exceeded. However, developing internal process faults are only detected at a rather late stage. In recent years research has shown that many process faults can be detected earlier and localized better by using static and dynamic models together with some definite robust sensors. For machines and drives many faults appear as process and signal parameter changes. The contribution describes a general methodology for the fault diagnosis of machines and drives by using few sensors, dynamic process and signal models and parameter estimation. Changes of process and signal parameters are then symptoms, which are fed into a knowledge based fault diagnosis component. Then analytical and heuristic knowledge is treated via fault trees and plausibility measures. The results were obtained in several research projects with machine tools and robots driven by d. c., a.c. and synchroneous motors. Examples show some experimental results.

The paper describes a personal-computer-based fault diagnosis system, which is designed for the analysis of periodically working machine tools. The used algorithms are described from signal analysis to the diagnosis system including some tests with real machines. The system was synthesized modularly. so that it can easily be adapted to other processes. Only few standard signals are needed. which have to be measured for controlling purposes anyway. so normally no special sensors have to be added. The knowledge based diagnosis system uses furtheron heuristic knowledge from machine history and expert knowledge. which is not exactly quantifiable.

A simplified theoretical model for the dynamics of a side-fired steam reformer is derived. Experimental work, designed to confirm the theoretical model, is described, and the use of the results in the design of a feed-forward/feedback control scheme for throughput changes is discussed. This scheme, implemented on an on-line computer, enables large throughput changes to be made with a minimum of disturbance to the plant and a minimum of effort by the plant operators. Results from a typical throughput change are presented.
