Abstract

A diagnostic device and diagnostic method for monitoring the operation of a control loop with a controlled system having a valve as an actuator, wherein in the case of a substantially stepped profile of a setpoint, a linear submodel is identified, which is subsequently used, with a substantially constant setpoint, in order to identify a nonlinear submodel, which is arranged upstream of the linear submodel in a Hammerstein model for the controlled system so as to facilitate a quantitative assessment of the friction behavior of a valve with a comparatively low level of computing complexity.
