TLDR
In this article, a process control system is compensated for nonlinearities in the control loop by means of a variable gain feedback element in the controller, which is adjusted by the output signal from a function generator, the input of which is the measured variable.Abstract:
A process control system is compensated for nonlinearities in the control loop by means of a variable gain feedback element in the controller. The gain of the feedback element is adjusted by the output signal from a function generator, the input of which is the measured variable. The function generator is calibrated to compensate for the nonlinearity of the control loop.read more

Patent
Mass flow meter and mass flow controller
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a flow rate correcting section that corrects the measured flow rate obtained by the flow rate calculating section by the use of the primary side pressure obtained by a pressure measuring section and a gas coefficient determined by an isobaric specific heat of the sample gas.

Improved proportional integral-derivative control apparatus
Takashi Shigemasa,Yasuo Takagi +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a process control apparatus is provided which has a PID controller to which is supplied a sampled signal of a control deviation signal of process value signal and a reference signal and which generates a PID control signal according to sampled-value PID control constants.

Proportional electro-hydraulic pressure control valve
Yasuo Hishinuma,Hiroshi Ito +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a proportional electro-hydraulic pressure control valve incorporates a pressure sensor in its valve body and the hydraulic fluid pressure in a pressure detecting fluid path provided in the valve body is delivered as an electric signal output by the pressure sensor.
Patent
Molar gas-flow controller
TL;DR: In this paper, a reference volume is measured twice during each cycle to provide voltages representative of the high and low pressures in the reference volume, and the time and duration of operation of the valves are controlled to cause the difference between the high-and low-pressure values to equal a predetermined value.

Method for controlling the position of an actuator in a manner whereby the adjustment is adaptive
Guenther Ing Grad Haefner,Karl-Ernst Noreikat,Hans-Dieter Schmidt,Ulrich Letsche,Bernhard Bauer +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a method and an apparatus for controlling the position of an actuator, which consists of generating a signal indicative of the actuator position, comparing the position signal to the desired position signal, and generating an error signal from the comparison.
