About This Product
Work on this apparatus ranges from calibrating transducer and actuator circuits to tuning controllers by the Ziegler/Nichols rules or by step changes, and comparing steady-state errors with closed-loop transient responses. Room is left in the design for users to build their own analysis and control exercises, which makes the unit suitable for extended or advanced control experiments and student project work in a control and instrumentation course.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which controllers can be studied on the Coupled Tanks Apparatus?
Analogue proportional, proportional + integral and proportional + integral + differential controllers can be designed and operated, with tuning by the Ziegler/Nichols rules or by step-change tuning. State feedback and multivariable control are also part of the experiment set.
