A Novel PID Controller Cascaded With Higher Order Filter for FOPDT With Real Time Implementation Kuruna Divakar, M. Praveen Kumar IEEE Access, 2022 This work describes the design of Proportional-Integral-Derivative(PID) controller for stable and unstable First Order Processes with Dead Time(FOPDT). PID controller is augmented with a higher order filter. The PID and the filter parameters are analytically derived using polynomial method. Higher order time delay approximation has been considered for improved accuracy. Maximum sensitivity(MS) based analytical tuning procedure is presented and concrete tuning guidelines are derived. The suggested technique is validated against delay dominant and nonlinear processes. In terms of the various performance indices, the suggested technique is compared to existing methodologies. The proposed method is tested on a real time process to verify the practical application.
A Novel Efficacious PID Controller for Processes with Inverse Response and Time Delay Kuruna Divakar, M. Praveen Kumar IEEE Access, 2022 Design of controller for the inverse response processes has been a challenge for researchers. Water level control in a steam boiler is one of the best examples, where the time delay and inverse response are inherent. Proportional Integral Derivative(PID) controller is the extensively employed regulator in industries. The present work introduces a new form of PID for the processes which are having time delay and inverse response simultaneously. The proposed PID is associated with a higher order filter. The controller and filter parameters are computed by using polynomial approach. Maximum sensitivity of the control loop is used to determine the tuning parameter. A set-point filter is utilized to diminish the settling time and overshoot in servo response. The suggested method is evaluated by considering several performance indices and bench marking examples. The proposed method is evaluated against the existing methods and tested in real-time scenario also.
