[TRNSYS-users] PID control parameters

[Suhrid A Deshmukh]

Hello,

I am trying to control the temperature of the water leaving the cooling tower to 18C. I am simulating an years worth of data and the simulation timestep in 10 min. I am trying to use the PID controller to do this. i am setting the setpoint variable in the PID controller to 18C and the controlled variable as the temperature of the water exiting the cooling tower. I was wondering what kind of Gain constant and integral time (derivative time can be zero) should I use to get the optimal performance.


Regards,
Suhrid
