Controle de nível pid inferencial em tanque com utilização de arduino

Abstract

Fluid level control is present in the vast majority of industrial plants, and it can be simulated by the use of teaching units and pilot plants, whose function is to qualify the user and instruct the use of instruments involved. The PID controller is a common example in this context due to its wide applicability. This work aims to build a low cost modular teaching unit capable of performing level control in order to demonstrate operation and handling of a PID controller. To reach this, an algorithm was developed using Arduino interface in conjunction with a plotter to elaborate graphic visuals in real time. It is expected that using this unit will provide development of critical thinking applied to problem solving and applicability of solutions learned in a classroom environment.
