Quarter-decay-ratio response (sometimes called QAD)

7

Ziegler Nichols I (Ultimate Gain Method)

Response to disturbance should be close to QDR (QAD)

Advantages:

• • • Don’t need to know mathematical models Easy to use Use on any process you can get to oscillate

Disadvantages:

• • Must force loop / process to oscillate (operating close to unstable) Tuning constants not unique, except for P-only

8

Quarter Decay Ratio (QAD) Advantages:

• • • Good for load disturbances Prevents large initial deviations w/o too much oscillations Gives good “Ball Park” values; leading to fast responses for most processes

Disadvantages:

• • • For SP changes, may overshoot too much Parameters for PI, PID, not unique May be too aggressive for cases where K or to change.

PS Exercise: Tuning Two Tanks in Series Loop Pro Trainer (process simulator):

• • • Launch Loop Pro Trainer Select Case Studies Select Gravity Drained Tanks • Press the pause button • • Adjust controller output to 50% Press run (continue) button and let run till achieve steady state • • • Click the rescale button to re center the plot Adjust controller output to achieve a level in tank 2 of 2 meters Click the controller button and turn to PID control (P-Only) • • • • You may have to turn the Integral part off; and Kc = 4 %/m Press run button and adjust the disturbance up and down 0.5 l/min Then adjust the set point up and down 0.5 m Observe how the system behaves.

10

PS Exercise: Tuning Two Tanks in Series Loop Pro Trainer (process simulator):

• • • Launch Loop Pro Trainer Select Case Studies Select Gravity Drained Tanks • Now, double Kc and observe effect.

• • Double it again… Try it at Kc = 2 %/m

11

PS Exercise: Tuning Two Tanks in Series Loop Pro Trainer (process simulator):

• • Now turn on the Integral term ( t

I

should be 4.0 min) and do the same adjustments, observing the behavior of the system.

• You may need to adjust the History to see the full change.

• Change t

I

and observe the effect.

Make sure you are back to the original settings (SP = 2m, Level at 2 m, etc) when you start and end with the PI controller.

17

PS Exercise: Tuning Two Tanks in Series Different opinions:

1. Different correlations will give different constants in the controller equations. D. Cooper suggests if one is uncertain, to start conservative, i.e. with the smallest controller gain and the largest integral (reset) time, thus, giving the least aggressive controller. Final controller tuning may best be performed on-line by trial and error, using experience and knowledge of the process, to obtain the desired controller performance. • • To changes in the setpoint or load disturbances: if the process response is sluggish; K

c

large.

is too small and/or t

I

is too if the process response is too quick and perhaps oscillating is not desired; K

c

is too large and/or t

I

is too small.

2. Ziegler-Nichols may be too aggressive for many ChE applications. Luyben (

Plantwide Dynamic Simulators in Chemical Processing and Control

, Wiley, 2002) suggests for PI controller

• •

Cohen-Coon:

Procedure same as for ZN II (open loop step test): The Ziegler-Nichols rules are more sensitive to the ratio of dead time to time constant, and work well only on processes where the dead time is between 1/4 and 2/3 of the time constant.

The Cohen-Coon tuning rules work well on processes where the dead time is between 1/10 and 4 times the time constant.

• “Quarter-amplitude damping-type tuning also leaves the loop vulnerable to going unstable if the process gain or dead time doubles in value.” Smuts suggests reducing Kc by ½ to avoid problems later on.

Step Testing Thoughts

Single step ; can be analyzed by hand Pulse, doublet, pseudo-random binary sequence (PRBS) tests; require computer tools for analysis • • • •

Data collected should meet these criteria:

Process at steady state before data collected Signal to noise ratio should be 10 or greater Collected data should be done when no disturbances were present After fitting, the model appears to fit the data visually

46

Step Testing Thoughts Single step

+ simple, graphical analysis can be done - long time away from desired operating level (DLO; or SP) - Data only on one side of DLO

Pulse (two step tests in rapid succession; 1 up and 1 back down)

+ only need to let measured process variable show a clear response - long time away from desired operating level (DLO; or SP) - Data only on one side of DLO

47

Step Testing Thoughts Doublet Test

+ two pulse tests; one up; one down; ending at beginning level + obtain data on both sides of DLO + relatively quickly return to normal operation level + a preferred method of some in industry for open loop tests - since done open loop; could be concern for certain systems

48

Step Testing Thoughts

PRBS Test (pseudo-random binary sequence ) + theoretically PV shouldn’t vary far from DLO - need a well defined, random test - should have some idea of process gain, time constant, and deadtime - might take longer than a doublet test

Step Testing Thoughts

Can do closed loop studies, and fit to FOPDT Controller aggressive enough for 10 times S to N response Data should begin and end at steady state No load disturbances should occur Do step, pulse, doublet changes to the set point.

Fit data to FOPDT; check tuning parameters on the process

Trial and Error (field tuning)*

• Select the tuning criterion for the control loop.

• Apply filtering to the sensor reading • Determine if the control system is fast or slow responding.

– For fast responding, field tune (trail-and-error) – For slow responding, apply ATV-based tuning • Turn off integral and derivative action.

• Make initial estimate of K c based on process knowledge.

• Using setpoint changes, increase K c until tuning criterion is met
