Development of an Adaptive PID Controller for a Nonlinear Process

2019

It is a crucial task to control the head of cone shaped tanks which is widely used in many industries like food manufacturing industries, petroleum industries and hydrometallurgical industries. The nonlinearity due to the tapered bottom area of the tank makes the level control in the conical tank the toughest task. The conventional controllers will not give a clear solution for this case. Obtaining the equilibrium conditioning by balancing the inflow rate and the out flow rate is the normal level control problem. Different shapes of the tanks implies different equilibrium and operating regimes. The entire system can be divided in to low middle and high regimes in order to consider the system as piece wise linear and varying controller parameters are required at these points. This work deals with development of a suitable controller for such process. This work start with the development of conventional three mode controller and further it is enhanced with Internal Model Controller an...

Design of a model reference adaptive PID control algorithm for a tank system

International Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering (IJECE), 2021

This paper describes the design of an adaptive controller based on model reference adaptive PID control (MRAPIDC) to stabilize a two-tank process when large variations of parameters and external disturbances affect the closed-loop system. To achieve that, an innovative structure of the adaptive PID controller is defined, an additional PI is designed to make sure that the reference model produces stable output signals and three adaptive gains are included to guarantee stability and robustness of the closed-loop system. Then, the performance of the model reference adaptive PID controller on the behaviour of the closed-loop system is compared to a PI controller designed on MATLAB when both closed-loop systems are under various conditions. The results demonstrate that the MRAPIDC performs significantly better than the conventional PI controller. Keywords: Adaptive Linearization MIT MRAPIDC Nonlinear Parameters Stability This is an open access article under the CC BY-SA license. 1. INTRODUCTION Adaptive control of uncertain processes has become more and more important in industry. Adaptive controllers differ from ordinary ones, because their parameters are variable, and there is a mechanism for adjusting these parameters online based on signals in the system [1]. The design of an adaptive PI controller to stabilize a mass damper-spring system under parameters' uncertainties was proposed in [2]. The designed adaptive PI controller adjusts to parameters' variations, and the output of the process follows the set points, regardless of the values of the parameters. But it does not guarantee stability when external disturbances and large variations of parameters occur. In [3], the design of a PID controller on MATLAB to maintain the level of liquid constant in a coupled-tank system (CTS) was proposed. The control parameters were found using the trial and error methodology and the results were analysed in MATLAB/Simulink environments. Proportional (P), proportional integral (PI), proportional derivative (PD) and proportional integral derivative (PID) controllers were applied on the process and their performances were compared to select the most suitable control solution. The PID controller showed superior results, but it did not guarantee stability to disturbances and variations of plant parameters. Adaptive controllers, as opposed to conventional constant gain controllers (PID controllers), are very effective in handling situations where the variations of parameters and environmental changes are very frequent with the application of model reference adaptive control scheme in a first order system [4].

Real Time Implementation of Fuzzy Based Adaptive PI Controller for a Spherical Tank System

International Journal of Simulation Systems Science & Technology, 2013

This paper proposes a new fuzzy adaptive variable digital PI controller for a single input single output non-linear spherical tank level process system. The open loop transfer function models are carried out at three different operating regions and those models are formulated based on the real laboratory scale system. The proposed FAPI controller is a combination of two input two output Fuzzy logic controller and a Variable digital PI controller. The input to the fuzzy controller is error and change in error and its outputs are K P and K I. The PI controller's parameters are estimated on-line based on error and change in error. The real time implementation and control of the process plant is done in MATLAB using VMAT-01 Data Acquisition Module. The objective is to make the output to settle fast with minimum overshoot and the disturbances do not affect the performances of the system.

Control Of Non Linear Spherical Tank Process With PI-PID Controllers – A Review

This paper focuses on the review of control methods for spherical tank system and tuning of non-linear PI / PID controllers in real time. The control of liquid level in spherical tank is complicated with conventional controllers due to variation in the area of transverse section of the tank. Thus the proposed non-linear PI and PID controllers are simulated and compared with the conventional PI and PID controllers available in the literature for spherical tank system. The proposed controllers are tuned based on Cohen Coon tuning method from the open loop response of the experimental setup of spherical tank in real time. The results of the proposed control methods are presented and compared with the conventional PI and PID controllers. The performance of the proposed control methods are evaluated with time domain specifications. The proposed non-linear PI and PID controller provides better response than the conventional PI and PID controllers for the spherical tank system.
