COVER STORY R&D: Fast track to success As global players with worldwide presence enter the Indian chemical industry, domestic companies are continually enhancing and differentiating the performance and dependability of its processes. - Balakrishnan Nair
IT Performance-based automation through enterprise control systems The two emerging paradigms, viz., enterprise control systems and asset performance management (APM), together are posed to provide business performance improvements -Peter G Martin
TECHNOLOGY Computer aided design & dynamic simulation of distillation column The present paper stimulates the control of ideal binary distillation column for top and bottom composition using the PI controller with the aid of MATLAB simulation package. R W Gaikwad & A K Chauhan
APPLICATION Simulation studies on stable PI controller parameters The main objective of this paper is to compute the stable parameters of a PI controller for air flow temperature system (AFTS). The AFTS is approximated as first order plus time delay (FOPTD) model - P K Bhaba , S Somasundaram , T Karunanithi and S E Hamamci
