Abstract
Maximum flow setting. A method of limiting flow through a valve () comprising: reading a time series of signals from a flow sensor (); producing a time series of flow rates from the time series of signals; producing an averaged series of values; producing a first bounded series of values by replacing values that are below a lower threshold () with the lower threshold (); producing a second bounded series of values by replacing values that exceed an upper threshold () with values that equal the upper threshold (); producing a maximum flow rate by applying a moving maximum filter () to the second bounded series; reading a set point signal (); limiting the set point signal () to the maximum flow rate; producing an actuation signal from the limited set point signal; transmitting the actuation signal to an actuator ().
