| Open Access | FINE-TUNING INDUSTRIAL PROCESSES: EXPLORING EFFECTIVE PID CONTROLLER TECHNIQUES FOR OPTIMAL LEVEL CONTROL
S. Rohit Pradhan , Professor, Instrumentation and control engineering, Saranathan College of engineering Trichy IndiaAbstract
This study delves into the optimization of industrial processes through the application of PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) controllers for optimal level control. PID controllers are widely utilized in various industries to maintain desired levels of parameters such as liquid levels, pressure, and temperature. Effective tuning techniques play a crucial role in maximizing controller performance, ensuring stability, responsiveness, and minimal overshoot. This research investigates significant PID tuning methods, including Ziegler-Nichols, Cohen-Coon, and model-based approaches, evaluating their applicability and effectiveness in real-world industrial applications.
