Course Introduction

Control philosophy plays a key role in the operation of rotating machinery, turbines, and compressors. A solid control strategy ensures that these systems run efficiently, safely, and with minimal downtime. The interaction between controllers, sensors, and actuators in rotating machinery helps maintain desired performance and stability across a wide range of operating conditions. Turbines and compressors are critical components in many industries, from power generation to oil and gas, and understanding how to optimize their control systems is essential. This training will provide participants with the knowledge to design, operate, and maintain control systems for these complex mechanical systems.

The program will cover control theory, system dynamics, and specific control strategies for turbines and compressors. It will introduce different types of controllers used in rotating machinery, such as PID, cascade, and adaptive control systems. Participants will learn about performance optimization, fault detection, and troubleshooting for turbines and compressors. The course will also explore best practices for control philosophy design and maintenance strategies.
