Evy Haraldseid & Monika Johansen (1999): "Testing av regler for tuning av PID-regulatorer" (In Norwegian) Student report R99-28 (4th year), Dept. of Chemical Engineering, NTNU, Trondheim Nov. 1999 There is no electronic version of this report. Summary: Evaluate the Skogestad PID tuning rules and possible modifications. --- Figure B3-5: Evaluation of using modified itegral time x*theta (rather than 8*theta): Integrating process with delay: g = e(-theta s) / s Results: Kc tauI IAE(ys) IAE(d) GM PM Ms Mt thetamax Skogestad(SIMC) 0.5 8 3.90 8.02 2.96 46.80 1.70 1.30 1.58 Modified SIMC 0.5 4 4.05 4.47 2.74 34.04 1.96 1.74 1.27 Modified SIMC 0.5 3 4.75 4.51 2.56 26.86 2.32 2.17 0.81 ZN 0.71 3.33 3.91 2.81 1.87 24.86 2.82 2.34 0.57 Conclusion: Lower integral time tauI gives better performance for disturbancesd (IAEd) but the robustness is worse.
