Start off with a large Integral time for the PID controller and decrease it until a stable value is obtained as quickly as possible.
![Page 34: Step 1: Set the desired flow rate for each pipe](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062314/568134cf550346895d9bf59c/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Assignment: Set up a piping network that can deliver 20 gpm of water at 75 F to each of three floors of a building. One floor is at a 50 ft elevation, the second is at 30 ft, and the third is at 15 ft. Water is available at 60 psia. The outlet pressure at each floor will be at 14.7 psia. Size the piping and control valves under steady state conditions without using the nodes. Once the pipes and valves are sized, begin to optimize the PID tuning one valve at a time. If you try to do it all at once, you will be guaranteed to have problems.
