Abstract

Many industrial processes such as continuous stirred tank reactors(CSTRs), desalination plant, distillation columns, pH neutralization processes and so on exhibit highly nonlinear characteristic and time-varying behavior during operation. The control of such processes has been challenging to control engineers. Hence, a variety of forms of PID controllers and their tuning rules for industrial processes have been developed to guarantee the best performance. In this paper, a scheme that designs the practical PID controller with an anti-windup strategy incorporating with an evolutionary algorithm(EA) is presented for the concentration control of a nonisothermal CSTR. EA is used to tune the parameters of the overall PID control process with anti-windup by minimizing the integral of absolute error(IAE). Simulation works for reference tracking and disturbance rejecting performances and robustness to parameter changes show the feasibility of using the proposed method.

연속교반탱크반응기, 담수화 플랜트, 증류탑, pH 중화 프로세스 등을 포함한 많은 산업용 프로세스들은 높은 비선형성과 시변 특성으로 인해 제어가 까다로워 보다 정밀하고 안정된 성능을 가지는 제어기를 설계하려는 많은 노력들이 있어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 기존 연구의 단점을 개선한 CSTR 프로세스의 농도제어용 PID 제어기를 동조하는 문제를 다룬다. 액추에이터 포화 문제를 극복하기 위해 PID 제어기에는 적분기 안티와인드업 피드백 루프가 구성되며, PID 제어기의 파라미터는 전체 제어 프로세스가 만족스러운 설정치 추종 성능을 가지도록 진화연산(EA)에 의해 동조된다. 제안하는 방법은 시뮬레이션을 통해 설정치 추종 성능, 외란 억제 성능과 파라미터 변동에 대한 강인성을 확인한다.
