TUNING A THREE-PHASE SEPARATOR LEVEL CONTROLLER VIA PARTICLE SWARM OPTIMIZATION (PSO) ALGORITHM

Three-Phase Separators are used to separate well crudes into three portions; water, oil, and gas. A suitable control system should be in place to ensure the optimum function of the Three-Phase Separator. The current PID tuning technique does not provide an optimum system response of the separator. O...

description Three-Phase Separators are used to separate well crudes into three portions; water, oil, and gas.
