Abstract

There are unfavorable conditions such as constantly changing working conditions and frequent disturbances that affect Mach number control in wind tunnel flow fields. As the proportional, integral and differential (PID) parameters need to be re-tuned for each working conditions of a wind tunnel, the operational costs of wind tunnels are very high. Therefore, to lower these costs, a genetic algorithm was utilized to tune the PID parameters to achieve Mach number control of a multi-mode wind tunnel flow field. In this paper, firstly, models for the multi-mode wind tunnel were established; secondly, a PID control system was designed based on the genetic algorithm and the control effects of the proposed PID control system were verified by simulations and were compared with the effects of a PSO tuning PID control system.
