PACS-i, the process automatic and control simulator, is PC software for training written in JAVA. PACS-i is an easy-to-use training simulator that provide hands-on experience to those studying and practicing process control which is often an abstract and mathematical subject. The software can provide students and practitioners close-to-real experience quickly and at minimal cost. PACS-i is the first in series of process control case studies with the multicomponent distillation column process. The column dynamics are simulated using a model described by Luyben (1992). The column specification that can be set are number of tray, feed tray position, tray efficiency, weir length, weir height, column diameter, reflux ratio and heat input of reboiler. The number of components in feed up to 5 can be selected from the list menu of 20 components. Users can manipulate process variables in an open loop to obtain a column responses of standard inputs (step, sinusoidal, pseudo random binary sequence). The results are shown via graphic display. There are four control loops for this process that can be choose as one-point (three loops) or two-point controls (all four). There are 6 one-point control structures and 6 two-point controls structures that users can choose from to study control configuration designs and their performance tests. The PID controller algorithm can be customed and tuned. There are PID, PID with derivative on measurement, velocity PID and position PID
