Estimation Of The Parameters Of A Delayed Process Using Open Loop Time Domain Techniques, Yue Zhang, Aidan O'Dwyer Jan 2005

Estimation Of The Parameters Of A Delayed Process Using Open Loop Time Domain Techniques, Yue Zhang, Aidan O'Dwyer

Conference papers

All process investigations should start by a determination of the process model. The modeling strategy used will influence the value of the model parameters, which will in turn affect the controller values determined from tuning rules. This paper will describe an analytical method to identify a model of the dynamic characteristics of a process with a delay by using a tangent and point method, as originally suggested by Murrill, 1967. The methodology has been applied to eight benchmark transfer functions suitable for testing PID controllers, as suggested by Åström and Hägglund, 2000. The main advantages of the modeling approach are …


Time Delayed Process Model Parameter Estimation: A Classification Of Techniques, Aidan O'Dwyer Jan 2000

Time Delayed Process Model Parameter Estimation: A Classification Of Techniques, Aidan O'Dwyer

Conference papers

An extensive though scattered literature exists on the estimation of the model parameters of time delayed processes. However, it is possible to identify themes that are common to many of the proposed techniques. The intention of this paper is to provide a framework against which the literature may be viewed.
