In power generation control when electrical engineers are discussing or analyzing the behavior of a governor or exciter block diagrams representing transfer functions are used. I would program turbine controls primarily in function block diagrams since it a great visual representation of the algorithms that makes It easy for some one to understand and observe how it works. I started with computer programming and it was quite an adjustment in my way of thinking to implement algorithms this way but no question it is the right tool for the job in controls.
