PID Controller
https://www.ni.com/en-us/innovations/white-papers/06/pid-theory-explained.html PID Controller are popular because of 1. Functional simplicity 2. Ro bust performance in a wide range of operating conditions 3. Simple operation PID algorithm consists of three basic coefficients; proportional, integral and derivative which are varied to get optimal response. Idea behind a PID controller is to read a sensor, then compute the desired actuator output by calculating proportional, integral, and derivative responses and summing those three components to compute the output. In a typical control system, the process variable is the system parameter that needs to be controlled, such as temperature (ÂșC), pressure (psi), or flow rate (liters/minute). A sensor is used to measure the process variable and provide feedback to the control system. The set point is the desired or command value for the process variable, such as 100 degrees Celsius in the case of a temperat...
