TL;DR: In this paper, the three principal control effects found in present controllers are examined and practical names and units of measurement are proposed for each effect and corresponding units for a classification of industrial processes in terms of two principal characteristics affecting their controllability.
Abstract: In this paper, the three principal control effects found in present controllers are examined and practical names and units of measurement are proposed for each effect. Corresponding units are proposed for a classification of industrial processes in terms of the two principal characteristics affecting their controllability. Formulas are given which enable the controller settings to be determined from the experimental or calculated values of the lag and unit reaction rate of the process to be controlled
