Unit 2:  

Tuning of Controllers   :-

Control modes: - Discontinuous- two position, multi position, floating control Continuos – proportional, integral, derivative & composite modes Control  paradigms-  Cascade control., Criteria for controller tuning-specified decay ratio, minimum integral of absolute error (IAE), minimum integral of time & absolute error.  (ITAE) closed loop response methods: ultimate method damped oscillation method Process reaction curve & open loop tuning.
