Optimization of PID Governor Coefficient for Turbocharged Diesel Engine

Abstract

The objective of this study is to find optimum governor coefficient for which fluctuation of engine speed is minimum, for given value of engine, turbo-charger, inlet and exhaust manifold characteristics. Current study uses the Wishnegradski Stability Diagram as suggested by V. I. Krutov [1], which graphically represents the dynamic response of governor based on the engine differential equation which is of the third order. For the load type of L = B cos (wt): The objective function is designed to minimize the integral squared error over a time period T, which is taken as 5seconds.
