ABSTRACT
The development of
technologies affects the demands of industries at all times. Automatic control
plays a vital role in the advance of engineering and science. In today’s industries,
control of DC motors has become a common practice. Therefore, implementation of
DC motor controller is required. There are many types of controllers that can
be used to implement the elegant and effective output. One of them is by using
a PID controller. PID are designed to eliminate the need for continuous
operator attention thus providing automatic control to the system. This paper
is focused on implementing PI and PID controllers to control the speed of a DC
motor. The DC motor was modeled mathematically and simulated using MATLAB/SIMULINK.
The overall paper is divided into two parts. The first part is concerned with
the simulation of the DC Motor using MATLAB SIMULINK while the second part
dealt with the simulation of the DC motor and PI,PID controllers at different
operating conditions. From the results obtained, it was shown that the due to
inrush current at start-up, the armature current of the DC motor has high transient.
Concluding, it was observed that the PID controlled DC motor showed
significantly reduced overshoot, and increased settling time at various loads of
when compared with the PI controlled DC motor.
