Integrating processes are frequently encountered in process industries. Generally they are most commonly associated with level control problems. In this paper, tuning formulae of PID controllers for set-point tracking and load disturbance rejection are presented on integrating processes with time delay. In particular, the controller parameters are determined such that performance criteria(IAE, ISE and ITSE) are minimized. Optimal PID parameter sets are obtained by means of a real-coded genetic algorithm(RCGA) and then tuning rules are addressed using obtained PID parameter sets and another RCGA. The performances of the proposed tuning rules are tested on two processes.
