Guidelines for setting of PI controller
The table below shows the recommended controller settings:
1)
Heating systems are systems in which an increase in pump
performance will result in a rise in temperature at the sensor.
2)
Cooling systems are systems in which an increase in pump
performance will result in a drop in temperature at the sensor.
L1 = Distance [ft] between pump and sensor.
L2 = Distance [ft] between heat exchanger and sensor.
