Hi,

How can I set "PID parameters" for the control of the system with the following "power serie" ?

y = 3E-40*x^18.94

X min = 30
X max = 90


PID parameters:
iMax,iMin,
pState,istate,dState,
pGain,iGain,dGain,
MAX,MIN


regards

If I understand you right, you have an extremely non-linear plant there. Do not expect to use one single setting if you are working over more than a few percent of x.

What plant has such an extreme y=f(x)?

Going from x=30 to x=90 means zillions of orders of magnitude change in y. Are you sure you got that relation between x and y?

78.6 2.00E-04
83.5 6.40E-04

are some of points.
at main working area X is between 60 and 80
 
skogs is correct. You will probably need a a controller that changes the PID constants for every change in set point. An adaptive PID controller.

PH?
This a chemical reaction?

Ah! Yep.. Nasty non-linear.

You can often map the valve if things permit then run via a table that takes into account the actual flows that 'will' occur.

Or model the valve and run with the model in the 'plant'.

thanks
but it will not work with LOOK-UP TABLE
- input is voltage for gas paffing valve control
- turbo vaccum pump run continuously
- output is vaccum
 
Your datapoints seem a part of a titration curve around the inflection poit.Can't you afford a trasformation y--->log(y) and get a (nearly) linear function log(y)=Ax+B?
