HANDBOOK OF PI AND PID CONTROLLER TUNING RULES
(2nd Edition)

by Aidan O'Dwyer (Dublin Institute of Technology, Ireland)

Table of Contents (86k)
Preface (66k)
Chapter 1: Introduction (17k)

The vast majority of automatic controllers used to compensate industrial processes are of PI or PID type. This book comprehensively compiles, using a unified notation, tuning rules for these controllers proposed over the last seven decades (1935–2005). The tuning rules are carefully categorized and application information about each rule is given. The book discusses controller architecture and process modeling issues, as well as the performance and robustness of loops compensated with PI or PID controllers. This unique publication brings together in an easy-to-use format material previously published in a large number of papers and books.

This wholly revised second edition extends the presentation of PI and PID controller tuning rules, for single variable processes with time delays, to include additional rules compiled since the first edition was published in 2003.


Contents:

  • Controller Architecture
  • Tuning Rules for PI Controllers
  • Tuning Rules for PID Controllers
  • Performance and Robustness Issues in the Compensation of FOLPD Processes with PI and PID Controllers


Readership: Control engineering researchers in academia and industry with an interest in PID control and control engineering practitioners using PID controllers. The book also serves as a reference for postgraduate and undergraduate students.
