PID Control Simulation

In this article, I will discuss a simulation experiment on PID control, which was part of my coursework for the "PID Control and Applications" course. The experiment will be implemented using SIMULINK format. During this simulation, I will explore the principles and applications of PID control and validate its effectiveness through computational modeling. I will provide a detailed walkthrough of the experimental methodology, including the configuration of proportional, integral, and derivative gains using SIMULINK's PID Controller block. The implementation involves tuning parameters through systematic approaches like Ziegler-Nichols methods while analyzing system responses through scope blocks for real-time visualization. I will share my experimental results and observations regarding transient response characteristics, steady-state error reduction, and stability analysis. Through this experiment, I aim to deepen my understanding of PID control mechanisms and their practical implementation in control systems. This coursework serves to consolidate my proficiency in both theoretical concepts and hands-on application of PID controllers.
