Abstract
PID controller is a controller used to determine precision of a system instrument employing feedback of the system. The component of PID control can be applied simultaneously or singly depends on the response we desired from a plant. However, there is problem in analyzing planned system response; how to get transfer function from a system and analyze it quickly and easily. As of today, control system engineers still encounter difficulty in analyzing system response especially for transfer function using polynomial equations of degree greater than two and employing trial and error method when analyzing response in the simulation. Thus, the writers design a simulator to solve this problem by using Graphical User Interface. The design of the program can be used for polynomial transfer function and installed directly to computer with smaller memory capacity. Hence, it is more user-friendly and not slowing down the operating system of computer. To ensure that the output of simulation correctly generated, we implemented block diagram modeling in simulink. In the future, the result of this research can be implemented as reference to easily understand the characteristics of PID controller especially for polynomials transfer function.
Highlights
PID Controller is one of the controllers that widely used in almost 90% process of industrial system
The design of PID simulator controller successfully shows that it can be used for polynomial transfer function after experiment on several polynomial equations
This design is user-friendly and the output can enable the user to analyze the response of the system quickly
Summary
PID Controller is one of the controllers that widely used in almost 90% process of industrial system. The process needs high accuracy and calculation, yet the description of the output oftentimes is inaccurate, especially for polynomial transfer functions [7] To address this issue, we need simulation software to acquire response from a system with convenience and time efficiency. Based on the explanation above, the writers design a PID simulator-based graphical user interface which allows displaying a full response of a system with a variety of combination from input signal and control action quickly, and accurately. This design can be used for transfer function in which the degree greater than three. The output of response displayed will be tested and compared with simulation using simulink model and block diagram, as to ensure that the output of the response from the design is generated
