This paper presents a comparison and evaluation between different anti-windup proportional-integral (PI) controller strategies used in variable-speed motor drives, and the anti-windup methods are to the speed control of a vector-controlled induction motor driven by a pulse width modulated (PWM) voltage-source inverter (VSI). The simulation results are compared for the different operating conditions and the characteristic of speed response has been analyzed in order to obtain the optimal performance of anti-windup PI controller method.

The windup phenomenon appears and results in the performance degradation when the PI controller output is saturated. A new anti-windup PI controller is proposed to improve the control performance of the variable-speed motor drives and it is experimentally applied to the speed control of a vector-controlled induction motor driven by a pulse width modulated(PWM) voltage source inverter (VSI). The integral state is separately controlled corresponding to whether the PI controller output is saturated or not. The experimental results show that the speed response has the much improved performances such as small overshoot and fast settling time over the conventional anti-windup technique. Although the operating speed command is changed, the similar control performance can be obtained by using the PI gains selected in the linear region.

The windup phenomenon appears and degrades control performance when a controller with integrating action is used and the plant input is limited. An anti-windup integral -proportional(IP) controller is proposed for the variable-speed motor drives and it is experimentally applied to the speed control of a vector-controlled induction motor driven by a pulse width modulated (PWM) voltage source inverter(VSI). Although the operating conditions like motor load and speed command is changed under the limited plant input it is experimentally verified that the speed response has much improved performance such as no overshoot and fast settling time and the maximum plant input is also effectively utilized.

The windup phenomenon appears and results in performance degradation such as large overshoot, slow settling time when the integral-proportional (IP) controller output is saturated. An anti-windup IP controller is proposed to improve the control performance for the motor drives. The proposed algorithm is applied to the current control of a vector-controlled induction motor driven by a pulse width modulated(PWM) voltage-source inverter. The integral state is separately controlled corresponding to whether the IP controller output is saturated or not. The experimental results show that the current response has much improved performance such as little overshoot and fast settling time.

This paper presents an anti-windup gain selection method for a complex vector synchronous frame PI current controller. The complex vector PI current controller is more robust to the parameter variation than the state feedback decoupling PI current controller. The complex vector PI current controller also includes an integral term, which can results in windup problem when the controller is saturated due to physical limitation of the system. Furthermore, even an anti-windup is utilized, inappropriate gain can deteriorate the performance of the current controller. Therefore, appropriate anti-windup gain selection method for a complex vector current controller has been proposed based on the mathematical description of the current control system. The superior performance of the current control system with the proposed anti-windup gain has been verified by the experimental results.

An attemperator is a part of the 4-stage superheater in the boiler system of the thermal power plant. The attemperator receives the over-heated steam and makes the steam with proper temperature by adjusting the control valve of the cold steam. In this paper, the attemperator is modeled considering physical point of view and the linearized model is derived for the control purpose. To overcome the integral windup phenomenon due to the opening limitation of the control valve, an anti-windup PI controller is proposed to the attemperator and compared with the PI controller operated in the thermal power plant in view of control performance.

비례-적분(PI) 제어기 출력이 포화되었을 때, windup현상이 나타나며 이것은 큰 오버슈트 및 느린 정착 시간과 같은 성능저하를 야기시킨다. 이 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위해 적분 상태 예측기를 갖는 Anti-windup PI제어기를 이용한 전류제어 방법을 제안한다. PSIM을 이용한 시뮬레이션을 통해 성능을 증명하였다. 이 방법은 PI제어기 출력이 포화되었을 경우와 그렇지 않을 경우에 따라 적분 상태가 각각 제어된다. 실험결과는 PI제어 방법과 비교하여 오버슈트 및 정착 시간과 같은 제어 성능이 개선되었음을 보여준다.

Advantages of switched reluctance motor(SRM) drives make it an attractive candidate for replacing adjustable speed ac and dc drives in both industrial and consumer applications. Furthermore, a simple, low cost and robust SRM drive can be efficiently operated in the hostile environment of an automobile. Generally, the speed control of SRM has a large step change or large torque reference, the output of its PI controller is often saturated. When this happens, the integral state is not consistent with the SRM input, while may give rise to the windup phenomenon. This paper proposes anti-windup control method for SRM speed control system by hysteresis current controlled asymmetry bridge converter. The experimental results show that the speed response has much improved performance, such as a small overshoot and fast settling time at the acceleration and particulary deceleration period with braking mode.

In many industrial processes and operations, such as power plants, petrochemical industries and ships, shell and tube heat exchangers are widely used and probably applicable for a wide range of operating temperatures. The main purpose of a heat exchanger is to transfer heat between two or more medium with temperature differences. Heat exchangers are highly nonlinear, time-varying and show time lag behavior during operation. The temperature control of such processes has been challenging for control engineers and a variety of forms of PID controllers have been proposed to guarantee better performance. In this paper, a scheme to control the outlet temperature of a shell and tube heat exchanger system that combines the PID controller with feedforward control and anti-windup techniques is presented. A genetic algorithm is used to tune the parameters of the PID controller with anti-windup and the feedforward controller by minimizing the IAE (Integral of Absolute Error). Simulation works are performed to study the performance of the proposed method when applied to the process.

A novel approach based on a nonlinear compensator is prposed to prevent 'windup', which is caused by the saturation of the acutator and the integral action of the controller. The anti-windup compensator is located between the conventional linear controller, designed neglecting the saturation, and the actuator. It was proven based on the describing function method that, if the closed loop control systems are stable assuming no saturation, then there may exist a range of compensator gain which prevents any limit-cycle. The computer simulation results show that the compensator proposed in the manuscript can eliminate the limit cycle and improve the transient response.
