Identification and control of large transport delay temperature process

In this paper different design methods for control of large transport delay systems are considered. Processes with large transport delay often present themselves as challenge for developing adequate and functional control. Due to the nature of these processes it is often not time efficient, nor optimal to project control on the process itself, thus did the authors opt for developing a control on a model and comparing the results with real process. Two popular methods were compared for control of black box system with large transport delay. Up first simple and widespread PID controller and then more complex, but better suited for large transport delay, Smith predictor. Results were compared both in simulation and on process itself.
