    Techteach - No Simview Antiwindup Index

    The document describes an anti-windup simulator for a temperature control PID system. The simulator models a tank with continuous inflow and outflow, where the inflow temperature is a disturbance. The user can activate or deactivate anti-windup in the PID controller. With anti-windup deactivated, the controller's integral term integrates without limit when the process variable saturates. With anti-windup active, the integral term stops integrating during saturation to prevent windup. The document provides tasks to observe the simulator's behavior with and without anti-windup when a large disturbance drives the process into saturation.

    Tips for using the simulator.
    The simulator: antiwindup.exe (click to download). The simulator runs immediately after the
    download by clicking Open in the download window. Alternatively, you can first save a copy
    of the exe-file on any directory (folder) on your PC and then run the exe-file, which starts the
    simulator.

    Description of the system to be simulated


    The simulated system is a temperature PID control system for a tank with continuous inflow and
    outflow. The inflow temperature Tin is a disturbance to the control system. If Tin becomes low, the
    heating element reaches its saturation limit. The user can choose to activate or deactivate the anti
    windup in the PID controller, but in most commercial controllers some anti windup function is
    activated.

    Video
    Here is an instructional video where the present simulator is used as an example: Anti windup in a
    PI(D) controller.

    Aim
    The aim is to observe the importance of having anti windup in the PID controller when a large
    disturbance drives the control variable into saturation.

    Motivation
    All practical PI(D) controllers must have anti windup, so this is standard in commercial controllers.
    If you are to implement a PI(D) controller yourself, it should definitely have anti windup.

    Tasks
    Reasonable PID parameter settings are shown on the front panel of the simulator (i.e. Kp=6.7,
    Ti=252s, Td=63s). The temperature setpoint can be set to 80 degrees C.
    1. Control without anti windup: Deactivate the anti windup action. Set Tin = 40 degrees C,
    and let the control system settle to a steady state. Then reduce Tin to 10 degrees C and keep
    Tin at this value for about 100min. Does the control variable go into saturation? Then
    increase Tin back to 40 degrees. How long does it take until the temperature T converges to
    the setpoint with zero control error after Tin was increased from 10 to 40 degrees? To which
    value is the I-term (ui) integrated?

    2. Control with anti windup: Activate the anti windup, and adjust Tin as in Task 1. How long
    does it take before the temperature T converges to the setpoint with zero control error after
    Tin was increased from 10 to 40 degrees? To which value is the I-term (ui) integrated?
    Is anti windup of any importance?
