PID(Proportional, Integral, Derivative) controller is the most popular process controllers in nuclear power plants. The optimized parameter setting of the process controller contributes to the stable operation and the efficiency of the operating nuclear power plants. PID parameter setting is tuned when new process control systems are installed or current process control systems are changed. When the nuclear plant is shut down, a lot of PID tuning methods such as the Trial and Error method, Ultimate Oscillation method operation, Ziegler-Nichols method, frequency method are used to tune the PID values. But inadequate PID parameter setting can be the cause of the unstable process of the operating nuclear power plant. Therefore the results of PID parameter setting should be simulated, optimized and finally verified. This paper introduces the simulation method of PID tuning to optimize the PID parameter setting and confirms them of the actual PID controller in the operating nuclear power plants. The simulation method provides the accurate process modeling and optimized PID parameter setting of the multi-loop control process in particular.

This paper presents a new parameter tuning method for PID controller. The Ziegler-Nichols Parameter tuning has been widely known as a fairly heuristic method to good determine setting of PID controllers, for a wide range of common industrial processes It has a excessive overshoot in the set point response, set point weighting can reduced the overshoot to specified values. It will also be shown that set point weighting is superior to the conventional solution of reducing large overshoot by other method. In this paper, we will modified the Ziegler-Nichols tuning formula by fuzzy set. These method will give appreciable improvement in the performance of PID controllers.

The PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) controller is widely used in the industries for more than fifty years with the well known Ziegler-Nichols tuning method and others varieties. However, most of the PID controller being used in the real practice still require trial and error adjustment for each process after the tuning method is done, which is consuming of time and needs the operator experiences to obtain the best results for the controller parameter. In order to reduce the inconvenience in the controller tuning, this paper presents a design of an automatic PID controller parameter analyzer being used as a support instrument in the industrial process control. This analyzer is designed based on the tuning formula of Dahlin to synthesize the PID controller parameter. Using this analyzer, the time to be spent in the trial and error procedures and its complexity can be neglected. Experimental results using PID controller parameter synthesized from this analyzer to the liquid level control plant model and the fluid flow control plant model show that the responses of the controlled systems can be efficiently controlled without any difficulty in mathemathical computation.

Controlling the process by PID controller is widely used in industry by applying Ziegler-Nichols method in analyzing parameter of the controller. However, in fact. it is still necessary to tune parameter in order to obtain the best process response. This paper presents a Self-Tuning PID controller utilizes the personal computer to synthesize and analyze controller parameter as well as tune for appropriate parameter by using Dahlin method and Extrapolation. Experimental results using a Self-Tuning PID controller to control water level and temperature, it is found that the controller being developed is able to control the process very effectively and provides a good response similar to the controller used in the industry.

Sliding mode control method is popularly used for robustness to distrurbance and variance of systems internal parameter. However, one of the serious problem of this method is Chattering which occurs in neighborhood of sliding manifold. Another problem is that we cannot expect robustness before system starts sliding mode. A new tuning method of sliding manifold which changes the parameter of sliding manifold dynamically using Wavelet Neural Network is proposed in this paper. We can expect the better performance in sliding mode control by the wavelet neural networks excellent property of approximating arbitrary function for multi-resolution analysis and decrease chattering drastically.

The PID controllers which is widely used in the process industry are poorly damped when the dynamic process contains significant dead time or when there are random disturbances acting on the plant. GPC is known to be more superior than conventional self-tuning algorithm in overcoming above problem and prior choice of model order. In this paper, we propose the method which determine the parameter of PID controller from minimization of GPC criterion. The controller has emplicit scheme which is comprised of parameter estimation and PID control design. Simulation results show the performance of the proposed self-tuning PID controller.

Recently, Control method of induction Motor is applied in full circuit model, as circular diagram. In Elevetor moderization problem, there is no circuit information. Nothing but, Motor terminal voltage and HP of motor. So, in this study, using KS induction Motor table, try to solve initial valve problem and make some implementations of manual tuning for use of automatic tuning of induction motor parameter.

In this paper, a methodology for estimating the model parameters of a discrete-time system and tuning a digital PID controller based on the estimated model and a genetic algorithm is presented. To deal with optimization problems regarding parameter estimation and controller tuning, pseudo-parallel genetic algorithms(PPGAs) are used. The parameters of a discrete-time system are estimated using both the model adjustment technique and a PPGA. The digital PID controller is described by the pulse transfer function and then its three gains are tuned based on both the model reference technique and another PPGA. A set of experimental works on two processes are carried out to illustrate the performance of the proposed method.

The PID controller has been widely used in industrial applications due to its simple structure and robustness. Even if it is initially well tuned, the PID controller must be retuned to maintain acceptable performance when there are system parameter changes due to the change of operation conditions. In this paper, a self-tuning control scheme which comprises a parameter estimator, a NN-based rule emulator and a PID controller is proposed, which can cope with changing environments. This method involves combining neural networks and real-coded genetic algorithms(RCGAs) with conventional approaches to provide a stable and satisfactory response. A RCGA-based parameter estimation method is first described to obtain the first-order with time delay model from over-damped high-order systems. Then, a set of optimum PID parameters are calculated based on the estimated model such that they cover the entire spectrum of system operations and an optimum tuning rule is trained with a BP-based neural network. A set of simulation works on systems with time delay are carried out to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper proposed new IMC-PID controller design method that use loop shaping method. It could consider such design specifications as gain margin, phase margin, sensitivity function etc by appling the loop shaping method for tuning IMC-PID controller whose structure has only one design parameter and guarantees internal stability. To shape desirable loop gain, the relation between these design specification and parameter is derived by mathematical basis. And the availability of proposed in this paper tuning method that can regard design specifications is checked through example comparison and analysis.
