1 -Action of PID Controllers

If the action is not correctly selected, the controller will not control

• Reverse action (increase/decrease)

In feedback control loop, the

multiplication of Process gain

(Kp), Control valve gain (Kv),

Sensor gain (Km) and Controller

gain (Kc) must be positive.

Reverse action : If Kp Kv Km > 0 → Kc > 0 2

1 -Action of PID Controllers

• Direct action (increase/increase)

To determine the action of a controller, the engineer must know:

1. The process characteristics

2. The fail-safe action of the control valve

Direct action : If Kp Kv Km < 0 → Kc < 0

More than 250 tuning rules are exist for PI and PID Controllers

What is the suitable tuning rule?

It really depends on your process (Type, Order, Parameters,

Nonlinearity, Uncertainty, etc)

12

4 -Off-Line Tuning of PID Controllers

Tyreus-Luyben(1992): Recommended for time-constant dominant

processes ( D/ t <0. 1 )

Ciancone-Marlin(1992): Recommended for dead-time dominant

processes ( D/ > t 2.0 )

5 -On-Line Tuning of PID Controllers

Ziegler-Nichols Test (1942)

1. Set the controller gain Kc at a low value, perhaps 0.2.

2. Put the controller in the automatic mode.

3. Make a small change in the set point or load variable and observe the

response. If the gain is low, then the response will be sluggish.

4. Increase the gain by a factor of two and make another set point or

load change.

5. Repeat step 4 until the loop becomes oscillatory and continuous

cycling is observed. The gain at which this occurs is the ultimate gain

Ku , and the period of oscillation is the ultimate period Pu. 17

Relay Feedback Test (Astrom & Hagglund, 1984)Luyben popularized relay feedback method and called this method “ATV” (autotune variation).

5 -On-Line Tuning of PID Controllers

Relay Feedback Test

1. Bring the system to steady state.

2. Make a small (e.g. 5%) increase in the manipulated input. The magnitude of change depends on the process sensitivities and allowable deviations in the controlled output. Typical values are between 3 and 10%.

3. As soon as the output crosses the SP, the manipulated input is switched to the opposite position (e.g. –5% change from the original value).

4. Repeat step 3 until sustained oscillation is observed .

5. Read off ultimate period Pu from the cycling and compute Ku from the following Equation: Ku = 4h/(πa) , ωu = 2π/Pu

5 -On-Line Tuning of PID Controllers

Advantages of Relay Feedback Test

1. It identifies process information around the important frequency, the ultimate frequency (where the phase angle is -π).

2. It is a closed-loop test; therefore, the process will not drift away from the nominal operating point.

3. The amplitude of oscillation is under control (by adjusting h ).

4. The time required for a relay feedback test is roughly equal to two to four times the ultimate period.

5. If the normalized dead time D /t is less than 0.28, the ultimate period is smaller than the process time constant. Therefore the relay feedback test is more time efficient than the step test. Since the dead time can not be too large, the temperature and composition loops in process industries seem to fall into this category. 20
