Stiction in control valves is the most common and long standing problem in industry, resulting in oscillations in process variables which subsequently lowers product quality and productivity. Developing a method to detect valve stiction in the early phase is imperative to avoid major disruptions to the plant operations. In this paper, nonlinear principal component analysis (NLPCA)-based stiction diagnostic tool is presented. Results from simulated case studies show that with proper quantification analysis, NLPCA shows a very promising capability for stiction diagnosis. © 2008 IEEE.
