A process has the transfer function, where K has a nominal-value of K = 1. PID controller
Question:
A process has the transfer function, where K has a nominal-value of K = 1. PID controller settings are to be calculated using the Direct Synthesis approach with ?c = 5 min.Suppose that these controller constants are employed and that K changes unexpectedly from 1 to 1 + ?.(a) For what values of will the closed-loop system be stable?(b) Suppose that the PID controller constants are calculated using the nominal value of K = 1 but it is desired that the resulting closed-loop system be stable for |?| (c) What conclusions can be made concerning the effect that the choice of ?c has on the robustness of the closed-loop system to changes in steady-state gain K?
