Abstract
The experiment we conduct studies the control response of the water level control process in the system. We control the water level in the tank for the process control system . Conventional PID control characteristics demonstrate the dynamics of the system process. In most parts of the experiment, we only make use of one tank. So we derived a first order equation G(s) for the main process. The apparatus as shown in the diagram consists of the double tank system. A separation valve (A) locates between the tanks. We fix the level and flow sensors on each of the tanks. We supply a voltage input from zero to 10 V to each different tank. The supply voltage is proportional to the water level and flow rate of each different tank . A plotter connects to plot the control characteristics of the system .
