INTODUCTION
A proportional–integral–derivative controller (PID controller) is a control loop feedback
mechanism.
PID control is by far the most common way of using feedback in natural
and man-made systems. PID controllers are commonly used in industry
and a large factory may have thousands of them, in instruments and laboratory
equipment. In engineering applications the controllers appear in
many different forms: as a stand alone controller, as part of hierarchical,
distributed control systems, or built into embedded components. Most controllers
do not use derivative action. In this chapter we discuss the basic
ideas of PID control and the methods for choosing the parameters of the
controllers. Many aspects of control can be understood based on linear
analysis. However, there is one nonlinear effect, that has to be considered in
most control systems namely that actuators saturate.
This mode of control is a combination of the previous modes and is given by the
expression:
Where:
p - output signal from controller, psig or mA
Kc - proportional gain
e - error (set point) (measured variable)
tD - derivative time, min
tI - integral time, min
ps - a constant, the steady-state output from the controller
The transfer function for this controller can be obtained from the Laplace transform of
Eq. (9.11); thus
Derivative action is based on how rapidly the error is changing, not the magnitude
of the error or how long the error has persisted. It is based on the slope of the error
versus time curve at any instant in time. Therefore, a rapidly changing error signal will
induce a large derivative response. “Noisy” error signals cause significant problems for
derivative action because of the rapidly changing slope of the error caused by noise.
Derivative control should be avoided
PID is an acronym, and it stands for Proportional, Integral and Derivative Each of this term
describes how the error is treated prior to being summed and sent into the plant.
In one of its block diagram from PID can be written like this:
The three K terms (KP, KI,KD) are called gains and they can be adjusted or turned to a
particular plant with a defined set of requirements and by changing this values you’re
adjusting how sensitive the system is to each of these different paths.

Parameter Speed of Response Stability Accuracy
Increasing K Increase Deteriorates Improves
Increasing KI Decrease Deteriorates Improves
Increasing KD Increase Improves No impact

P controller can stabilize only 1st order unstable process. PI controller can be used to
avoid large disturbances and noise present during operation process. Whereas PID
controller can be used when dealing with higher order capacitive processes.
