| Abstract | This study presents the development of dead-time compensator with Proportional Integral-Derivative (PID) controller and their implementation in real-time using the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) on a heaterfurnace system that constitute the temperature process. Though PID controller is effective to most of the processes, it has draw backs when used to control the processes with significant dead time. Therefore to eliminate the effects of long dead time, the dead-time compensator combined with PID is proposed. The control equation for the proposed dead time compensator is developed using the mathematical model of heater-furnace system and ladder logic program is created in GE Fanuc Versamax PLC. The PID controller is tuned using process reaction curve method and programmed in PLC. The proposed controller has an outer loop control mechanism with dead time compensator which feeds the inner loop PID controller. The effects of dead time on the performance of PID controller are eliminated through the outer loop control mechanism whose output does not contain modelling errors. The results of the proposed dead-time compensator with PID are compared with the results of the conventional PID controller without dead time compensation for both steady state response and servo-regulatory response. The results of the proposed controller show better improvement in the time domain specifications compared to conventional PID controller. |
