Abstract

For a given chemical manufacturing plant it is often necessary to determine its ability to meet design requirements at different operating conditions and to reject disturbances, which is known as controllability. Design reliability theory can be used to determine the possibility of violating the design and operational constraints. If the design under consideration results in a significant value of the failure possibility, then such design will require either modification or the establishment of a specific requirement in the control system. This paper presents case studies that show the implementation of this approach.
