Control Plant Generic Pid Controllers Using the Second Tuning Method Ziegler-Nichols

Abstract

This article presents a study in process control using the second tuning method Ziegler-Nichols. The second Ziegler-Nichols tuning method determines a gain and a period called critical gain and the critical period, respectively. And through empirical testing, to achieve system stability. The chosen driver for the development of this work was the PID (Proportional -Integral -Derivative). The purpose of this article is the study of the second Ziegler-Nichols tuning method in process control, making the stable control system. The development of this work was performed by MATLAB and Simulink software. The results showed that the research is relevant because the Ziegler and Nichols optimization method is applicable for process control projects using PID controllers..
