Jun 22, 2017 at 13:49 comment added SF. To trim PID to pure integrator, P=0, I=1, D=0. But if you want to maintain water level, you're much better with a trivial cut-off / hysteresis regulator. Especially, that PID basing on integrator, wouldn't take level as input, but flux; estimating the water level by approximating amount in minus out. This accumulates error over time and is a really bad solution.
Jun 22, 2017 at 12:46 comment added kfb This problem is actually a quite common one. If the details are provided I can happily help you.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:20 comment added Pr. Giratina Thanks for your answers, this migh be a dumb question but here it is. I'm trying to keep the water level in a tank at a given value by controlling the flow in, the input is the flow and the output is the level. i think that the level is related to the flow by : dL/dt = Q/A where Q is the flow and A the area of the tank. The transfer function is then TF=1/(A*s) How can i design a PID controller for the closed loop system? PS : excuse my bad english
Jun 21, 2017 at 14:51 comment added BarbalatsDilemma Can you provide more information about what you're trying to accomplish, and what part is causing you trouble? Are you trying to design a PID controller, or are you trying to experimentally tune one? Is the plant model perfectly known (i.e. you know $K$)?
Jun 21, 2017 at 8:41 comment added kfb Also, you can check these links: 1-Robotics , 2-Quora and 3-Quora, If the problem is satisfied, I can edit these solutions into answer to prevent link rot. (Also, you might need to edit the title, because PID stands for Proportional-Integral-Derivative, and in this case we need the tune only Integral controller.)
