I really don't know the specific Foxboro answer. The EDOC shows the complex equation used when this form is enabled and it would probably = take me two days to resolve for " y " unless I could find a recent graduate = who remembers how to do all that stuff. =20 2. The standard lead-lag block uses LAGTIM that specifies the time = constant for a "first order" lag. =20 3. A quadratic equation is one that uses a higher power (you know, like George Bush) perhaps squared or fourth power or something else. The = LAG2 operation seems to cause the output to take a different form than first order lag and that varrying the parameters can change the shape of the response. =20 4. My last recollection of using such equations was for open flow measurement such as on river flood water. =20 Hope this helps. =20 Terry ________________________________ De: foxboro-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx de la part de Clement, Mark (Kiddmetallurgical - Copper) Date: mer. 2007-07-04 07:15 =C0: 'foxboro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Objet : Re: [foxboro] LLAG Block Trying this again -----Original Message----- From: foxboro-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:foxboro-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Clement, Mark (Kiddmetallurgical - Copper) Sent: Friday, June 29, 2007 1:35 PM To: 'foxboro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [foxboro] LLAG Block Hi All, Has anyone ever run across documentation on how the LAG2 parameter = works with the LLAG block ? Specifically interested in knowing what "quadratic lag time " is and = how it could be used Thanks in advance Regards Mark _______________________________________________________________________ This mailing list is neither sponsored nor endorsed by Invensys Process Systems (formerly The Foxboro Company).
