Description
Summary:This report discusses the development and implementation of computer eoutrol on an industrial process plant. The objectives of the project is to design and tune two different PID controller for the control of temperature in a gaseous pilot plant. The gaseous pilot plant, located at Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS, is used in the case study. The focus of the project is on the control and monitoring of the temperature of gas in the pilot plant. The PID controller will be designed and simulated via MATLAB/Simulink. The work involves two main stages, modeling and simulation, and real-time implementation. Once the PID controller has been designed and simulated via MA TLAB/Simulink, the model will be interfaced to the plant via an xPC target card for real-time analysis. The result of this investigation shows that the cascade control architecture would be a viable method to be used in plant process control. The cascade configuration that indicates the better performance can specifically be defines to use the Ziegler Nichols closed loop tuning method for the primary loop, while for the secondary loop the Cohen Coon tuning method is preferable.
