Assessment 2: Written Assignment

Report on the design of a Level Sensor to demonstrate the operation of instrumentation systems and investigate methods for appropriate measurements.

<p>You will be studying the principal types of process plant and associated control equipment used in the process industries. Models of process plant systems are developed for optimising control system performance. You will get familiarised with the principal types of computer control systems, including PLCs, Direct Digital Control (DDC) systems, SCADA systems and Distributed Control (DCS) systems. Further on, you will get experience of working with instrumentation systems for the measurement of such as, temperature, pressure, level and flow. You will get familiarised with the real-time imaging systems for monitoring multiphase flows in pipes (e.g. oil-water or solids-water flows).</p>

Requirements apply to students taking an IET accredited course. Please refer to the Programme Specification Document for details.
