IPSO-Based FOPI Controller Design for Horizontal Cylindrical Tank Liquid Level Process

Abstract

This paper depicts the Fractional Order PI controller to control the level of horizontal cylindrical shaped tank. A main goal to beat the disadvantages of standard PSO, some enhanced mechanisms for velocity updating, the boundary limit control, global best perturbation and the Simplified Quadratic Interpolation (SQI) administrator are adopted. Improved Particle Swarm Optimization technique is utilized for design the parameters of Fractional PI controller in this work. Simulation results demonstrate that the refined pinpointing search capacity and the global search capacity of the proposed algorithm are essentially improved when compared with the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and PI controller. The controller needs to improve the dynamic characteristic for the level control in horizontal tank.
