In this work, various algorithms of PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) controllers such as series, parallel, series together with derivative filter and parallel together with derivative filter form are implemented for the comparative analysis of the closed loop responses of an important parameter in head box of a paper machine in a paper making process industry called consistency, which has FOPDT (First Order Plus Dead Time) dynamics. Also the comparison is made between the closed loop responses achieved from different values of derivative filter factor for non-ideal situations. The steady state and dynamic characteristics are analyzed and compared and important inferences are derived.
