ABSTRACT
Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) control remains one of the most widely adopted strategies in industrial automation due to its simplicity, robustness, and proven effectiveness across a broad spectrum of processes, including temperature, pressure, flow, and level control. This paper investigates the application of various PID tuning methods, including Ziegler-Nichols (ZN), Good Gain (GG), Internal Model Control (IMC), and Software- Based Tuning (SBT), in the context of a chemical process. The system aims to maintain the temperature at a specified reference value while ensuring stability, eliminating steady-state error, and optimizing the transient response. The performance of each tuning method is evaluated based on the quality of the transient response and he Integral of Time-weighted Absolute Error (ITAE) criterion. The system was implemented using both Simulink, within the MATLAB environment, and the LabVIEW software package.
