ME 4053: Controls Procedure: Qualitative Observations 1. Use “ControlsQualitative.mdl” as shown on Figure 5. 3. Specify gains (Kp,Ki,Kd) for P controller. 4. Build model, Connect to Target, and hit Start (play) 5. For each controller turn the flywheel with your hand: (1) quickly, (2) slowly, and (3) turn and hold in position. 6. What aspect is the restoring force sensitive to? Record your observations in your lab notebook. 7. Repeat for I and D controllers.

ME 4053: Controls Procedure: PID Controller Performance 1. Open Control2.mdl Set constants according to TA instructions 2. Set Kp, Ki, and Kd to the values you calculated for each of the controllers. 3. Build the model, Connect to Target, hit Start (play) 4.Plot the results and save as a figure file 5. Repeat for the PD and PID controllers.

ME 4053: Controls Max. Overshoot 2% Settling time Procedure: PID Controller Performance 2 SCORE-Change • Open M Files. • Measure the maximum overshoot, the 2% settling time, and the steady-state error for each graph (where applicable) and record the information in Table 1. See Figure 4 for an example. • Calculate the “score” for the performance of the controller. • S=Omax x tsettle if steady state error is less than or equal to 0.5% • Adjust the gains of the best PID controller to improve the performance of the controller. Record the gains and the scores for each attempt in Table 1. Figure 10. Example measured quantities: settling time and max overshoot.
ME 4053: Controls Non-Linear Simulink Model Verification: • Build the following Non-Linear Model to compare to experimental results. • The Transfer Fcn2 on the right is really just (Km / (Tm*s^2 + s)). • To Run your simulation, make sure to go to Simulation, then Configuration Parameters, and run Ode5, with a step size of 0.005. This will make your simulation run much quicker. Feel free to vary these values to make a higher resolution plot. • Slight modification to this model will give a linear version – to be tested as well. Which model works better?
