S. Skogestad:
"Probably the best simple PID tuning rules in the world"
Presented at AIChE Annual meeting, Reno, NV, USA, 04-09 Nov. 2001,
Paper no. 276h
Comment:
There are two versions of the paper:
In the original version (tuningpaper_06nov01)
it was (probably incorrectly) assumed that
the ZN-PID tunings were given for the series (cascade) form controller.
In the revised version (tuningpaper) the ZN-PID tunings
are assumed to be given for a parallel form (ideal) controller.
In any case, the differences are minor and have no bearing on the
main conclusions in the paper
Abstract:
The aim of this paper is
to present analytic tuning rules which are as simple as possible
and still result in a good closed-loop behavior. The starting point has
been the IMC PID tuning rules of Rivera, Morari and Skogestad (1986)
which have achieved widespread industrial acceptance.
The integral term has been
modified to improve disturbance rejection for integrating processes.
Furthermore, rather than deriving separate rules for each transfer
function model, we start by approximating the process by a first-order plus
delay processes (using the ``half method''), and then use a single tuning rule.
This is much simpler and appears to give controller tunings with comparable performance.
All the tunings are derived analytically and are thus very suitable for teaching.
