Description of Block Diagram
AEI504.54 to 55 7
• Primary controller controls the variable that is to be kept
at a constant value.
AEI504.54 to 55 8
• Primary controller maintains the primary variable (C1) at
its set point (r1) by automatically adjusting the set point
(r2) of the secondary controller
AEI504.54 to 55 10
In a cascade controller
AEI504.54 to 55 11
Example 1
AEI504.54 to 55 12
Inner loop consists of
AEI504.54 to 55 13
Outer loop consists of
AEI504.54 to 55 14
• Level (outer) controller adjusts
set point for flow (inner) controller.
AEI504.54 to 55 15
Example 2
AEI504.54 to 55 16
temperature = f [steam pressure]
AEI504.54 to 55 17
• Inner loop consists of
pressure measure instrument
pressure controller
AEI504.54 to 55 18
Therefore temperature controller (outer) adjusts
the set point of pressure controller (inner)
