The document discusses using a PI controller to control the level of a tank in an experiment. It explains how a P&ID diagram and block diagram were used to analyze the level process and determine its transfer function. A PI controller was selected instead of PID because the level process is fast and a D term could cause instability. The PI controller was tuned to provide smooth and fast control of the level. The control loop uses cascade control with the slave loop tuned first and then the master loop to control the level process. After the experiment, the author learned about diagrams, transfer functions, and tuning PID controllers to select the appropriate controller type for different processes.

Discussion
The experiment uses the PID controller to control
the level of tank. In the first we draw the P&ID form the
real level process control and convert it to block
diagram. The block diagram helps us analyze how it
work and find the transfer function of the level process
control. We can calculate the transfer function from
block diagram or we can calculate it by step the input
to the system (level process control). We step input to
10% and observe the output. The graph between input
and output can calculate the transfer function of the
system. Then we use the data from the transfer
function to select the controller. In this experiment we
use PI controller because P controller make the system
slow and the steady state error. PID controller suit for
the slow process but level process is the fast process. If
we use PID in the experiment the D term cannot
controller the fast output and can cause the system run
away. The PI controller suit for fast process because it
can control the output and reduce the steady state
error. Then we tuning the PI controller for smooth and
fast as it can. The process is cascade control. The
cascade control in this experiment has two loops
include master and slave. The slave loop is faster than
the master loop and the set point in the master loop is
remote set point of salve loop. We tune the slave loop
fist and set it to auto mode. Then we tune the master
loop and set it to auto mode to. Now we can control the
level process by tuning of PI controller.

Conclusion
After experiment we know about P&I diagram,
block diagram, finding transfer function and tuning the
PID controller. The process in the world has many type
we must select the suit controller to control it the
knowledge form the experiment is the basic how to
select it can tune it. If we select the wrong controller it
can make the system slow or run away. Be careful and
use the know before implement it to the real.
