Break the Rules: A Hybrid Approach for Tuning Very Slow Processes

Practitioners of every age know that tuning very slow processes presents a challenge when faced with rigid time constraints. Specifically the time needed to perform the requisite bump tests isn’t always practical. In order to tune such loops quickly some practitioners have successfully applied a hybrid approach. While this approach won’t be found in university textbooks, it has been proven to do the trick in a range of situations. Skeptical? Read on.
