Abstract :
A distributed control system (DCS) based on two-layer networks for experimental teaching is presented in this paper. Three sets of equipments are used as process objects with their parameters such as pressure, temperature, level and flow rate being controlled variables. This system has multiform training functions. Students can not only set up basic experiments about the process control, but can also design complicated control system. The result of 4 years´ use shows: it is an ideal engineering simulating system for students major in industrial automation.
