Fuzzy Fractional-Order PID Controller for Fractional Model of Pneumatic Pressure System

الملخص EN

This article presents a fuzzy fractional-order PID (FFOPID) controller scheme for a pneumatic pressure regulating system.

The industrial pneumatic pressure systems are having strong dynamic and nonlinearity characteristics; further, these systems come across frequent load variations and external disturbances.

Hence, for the smooth and trouble-free operation of the industrial pressure system, an effective control mechanism could be adopted.

The objective of this work is to design an intelligent fuzzy-based fractional-order PID control scheme to ensure a robust performance with respect to load variation and external disturbances.

A novel model of a pilot pressure regulating system is developed to validate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.

Simulation studies are carried out in a delayed nonlinear pressure regulating system under different operating conditions using fractional-order PID (FOPID) controller with fuzzy online gain tuning mechanism.

The results demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed strategy and confirm the performance improvement for the pneumatic pressure system.

To highlight the advantages of the proposed scheme a comparative study with conventional PID and FOPID control schemes is made.
