Ntroduction: Single Loop Control

This document discusses cascade control, which uses two controllers in sequence to control a process. The first, or master, controller generates a setpoint for the second, or slave, controller. The slave controller then controls the actual process based on the setpoint from the master controller. Cascade control offers advantages over single-loop control like reducing dead time and improving dynamic response. It can provide more precise control and help compensate for load changes in the process. An example of cascade control is using tank level control to regulate the flow out of the tank through a valve.
