Various tuning methods have been proposed for proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller. A respectively new and simple experimental method for tuning PID controllers named a Good Gain method that was recently proposed by F. Haugen in 2010, this method is not yet recognized among the other known methods for tuning. However, the founder of this methods claims that it can be an alternative to the famous Ziegler-Nichols. In this paper, PID tuning method has been performed experimentally using a real water level system in order to test and validates the Good Gain method. Also other PID tuning methods applied to the same system to compare the results. The results show that the Good Gain method gives an acceptable stability and response comparing to the other industrial PID controller tuning procedures
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
