Download USER MANUAL MINILOOP

1 Introduction
The Miniloop was originally constructed by Bårdsen [1] as a part of his fifth grade project
with the Department of Chemical Engineering at NTNU. Since then some work has been done
on the Miniloop by Søndrol2 as a part of his thesis. New measurements have been added and
analyzed. A new user interface has been constructed to obtain the new measurements and to
allow different control structures.
This user manual was written as a part of the thesis [2], however it is meant to be a stand
alone user manual. This means that some of the things presented in this manual can also be
found in the Diploma thesis [2].
The Miniloop is essentially very easy to use. However there are some issues the user should
be aware of. It is therefore recommended to read this user manual before performing any
experiments on the Miniloop.
