Abstract

This paper presents the comparison of performances between a PID temperature controller and a conventional on-off temperature controller for home-applied refrigerator. A new PID temperature controller was designed to replace the conventional on-off temperature controller to maintain the inner temperature of a refrigerator. Both temperature controllers of the conventional system and the PID were designed and evaluated using MATLAB Simulink software. The simulation shows that the PID controller was found to be more consistent and effective in maintaining the inner temperature of the refrigerator despite rapid changes in the outer temperature, than the conventional on-off controller. The both simulation results provide full graphical development which is analyzed and have been compared. The effectiveness of the PID control system and its ability to maintain the inner temperature of the refrigerator consistently than the conventional on-off controller is shown.
