Integral of time absolute error （ITAE） index is minimized for specified gain and phase margins （GPM） constraints, so that the transient performance and robustness are both satisfied. The requirements on gain and phase margins are ingeniously formulated by real part constraints （RPC） and imaginary part constraints （IPC）. This set of new constraints is simply related with three parameters and decoupling of the remaining four unknowns, including three controller parameters and the gain margin, in the nonlinear and coupled characteristic equation simultaneously. The formulas of the optimal GPM-PID are derived based on controller scaling analysis. Finally, this method is applied to liquid level control of coke fractionation tower, which demonstrate that the proposed method provides better disturbance rejection and robust tracking performance than some commonly used PID tuning methods.展开更多

Such control systems are used in different branches of industry and infrastructure including oil industry, chemical industry, water treatment, canalization and others. The stand allows realizing level, flow, pressure and temperature control systems, using pump, valves, discrete and analog sensors. Level control system is described in this work. PID （proportional integral derivative） controllers are used in these systems. Control is switched on and off and the parameters of control systems are changed by means of SCADA （supervisory control and data acquisition） system. During real technological processes, these actions are performed by the operator. The algorithm of the control system is realized using PLC （programmable logic controller）. At the end of the article conclusions about the research are drawn.展开更多

The robustness against unknown disturbances is considered. Two algorithms based on the Sliding Mode Control (SMC) for nonlinear coupled multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems are proposed: the first order sliding mode control (FOSMC) with saturation (sat) function and the FOSMC with sat combined with integrator controller. Those algorithms were simulated and implemented on the three tanks test-bed system and the exprimental results confirm the effectiveness of our control design.展开更多
