1.5. Drum Level Control

PC_DRUM

OUT

PP

LV

This function is to provide the pressure compensated drum level. PP is the differential pressure, and
LV is the level in percentage of full-scale, the output (OUT) is return as a value 0 to 100%. PP, LV and
OUT are all of type REAL. The function additionally to compensates for the reverse acting output of the
level input (increasing PP value of decreasing differential pressure).

Underflow, overflow and divide by zero error conditions are to result in value of zero being returned and
the corresponding error counter incremented.

1.6. Mass Flow Computation

Error! Objects cannot be created from editing field codes.

The mass-flow computation block provides the mass flow corrected for the current operating
conditions.

OUT

PP is the differential pressure, P is pressure and T is temperature. C, Z, m, e and h are intended to be
constant values. All parameters are of type REAL.

PP and P are in psi, T is in

0

C.

If T=-273, a divide by zero error condition is generated, this is to increment the associated error
counter and the mass flow function is to return a value of -1. Over and underflow conditions are to
result in an output value of -1 and increment the associated error counter.
