This study presents PID stabilization for first-order-plus-dead-time (FOPDT) processes using the Hermite-Biehler theorem. It provides stability bounds and an algorithm for selecting gains, outperforming traditional tuning methods.

Area of Science:

  • Process Control
  • Control Theory
  • Chemical Engineering

Background:

  • First-order-plus-dead-time (FOPDT) models are widely used to represent processes in the chemical and petroleum industries.
  • Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controllers are essential for process stabilization.
  • Analytical stability analysis of FOPDT systems with PID control is crucial.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analytically investigate PID stabilization of FOPDT processes using the Hermite-Biehler theorem.
  • To derive necessary and sufficient conditions for closed-loop stability.
  • To develop a systematic method for selecting stabilizing PID gains.

Main Methods:

  • Application of the Hermite-Biehler theorem to an FOPDT process model.
  • Utilizing a first-order Padé approximation for the transport delay.
