A Valve Stiction and Time Delay Control Method Based on Fuzzy Smith Internal Model Principle

Abstract

In the process of chemical production, the phenomenon of control valve’s stiction is very common. This phenomenon causes control loop oscillation and has a negative effect on the quality and cost of the product. Time delay exists widely in industrial process, which leads to the variation of the dynamic response of the system. In this paper, taking the stiction model proposed by Kano as an example, then puts forward a method of smith internal model control based on fuzzy theory. This paper try to solve the stiction problem by controller designed. This control method can realize the parameter self-tuning and overcome the stiction. Simulation results show that the method proposed can effectively overcome the loop oscillation and improve the performance of the system.
