MONITORING AND CONTROLLING A PROCESS USING OVERRIDE CONTROLLER & ANTI WINDUP

The project involves the design and analysis and implementation of controller for
industrial process plant. The objectives of the project are to design an override
controller and anti windup for the control of pressure in a Gaseous Pilot Plant via
real-time using Matlab/Simulink.. The Gaseous Pilot Plant in the Plant Process
Laboratory, Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS is chosen as the case study.
Specifically, the focus is on the monitoring and controlling the pressure of the gas
medium in the Gaseous Pilot Plant. The PID and Override controllers operate based
on the characteristic and properties of the process. The response of the pressure can
be controlled and monitored in real-time during the experimentation process. These
involved an extensive study to understand the process plant operation and obtaining
its parameters for use in the PID controller have been conducted. Modeling and
simulation involves the Matlab/Simulink modeling and the PID controller design. The
external feedback is implemented to reduce the anti windup. The results indicate that
the override control and anti-windup can be achieved for Pl control. In the case for
PID, the responses are too fast, while very slow performance for the P control.
