Simulation technology continues to advance to improve manufacturing performance in both the capital project and ongoing operations phases. We’ve highlighted examples of how these performance gains are achieved in earlier posts with Emerson’s Ronnie Bains. Today at 10:00 AM EST / 4:00 PM CET, Ronnie will join a webinar hosted by simulation experts from Aspen […]
Interest in how the Industrial Internet of Things can improve manufacturing performance spans the globe. Emerson’s Jonas Berge recently presented at the 2nd China Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) summit 2018 in Shanghai. His presentation, Harnessing the Power of Digital Transformation and Industrial IoT, explored the case for change in driving top quartile performance, the […]
Emerson’s Felipe Fakir shared a whitepaper with me, Hardware in the Loop Simulation for Industrial Process Control, which he and colleagues attending São Paulo State University in Brazil had written. Their abstract [I’ve added hyperlinks]: Real-time simulation for control loop design and operators training systems (OTS) are increasingly being used in the process industry due […]
Some of our most consistently popular posts here at Emerson Process Experts center on anti-surge control for centrifugal compressors. I had the opportunity to catch up with Emerson’s Ashish Patki when he was in town last month. Ashish shared a story where a national oil company was setting up an oil & gas processing facility […]
Emerson’s Terry Blevins and Mark Nixon‘s new book, Control Loop Foundation – Batch and Continuous Processes was highlighted in an earlier post here on the blog. As I noted in the post, the intent of the book was to give automation professionals a foundation in process control in subjects such as: …measurements, on-line analyzers, final […]
