Abstract: In this work, a two-tank interacting level process taken-up for study. The mathematical model of two-tank interacting process is derived. A conventional PI controller is designed based on process reaction curve with ZN techniques. To improve the performance of PI controller, fuzzy logic control is proposed and implemented for a two tank interacting process. To study and implement particles swarm optimization (PSO) technique in order to optimize PI control parameters. To improve the performance of PSO-PI controller, PSO-FLC is proposed and implemented for a two tank interacting process. To obtain servo and regulatory response with PI, fuzzy logic, PSO based PI controller and PSO based FLC controller. To implement PSO based controllers in real time system using VMAT CARD.
Keywords: Two-tank interacting process, PI controller, PSO-PI, FLC controller and PSO-FLC.
