Control derivative

Derivative controllers (D controllers) are practical only in combination with other controller modes. They provide a fast engagement at the beginning of the control action. Here the derivative controller output is proportional to the rate of change of the error [Eq. (86), where td is the derivative time]. 

The derivative mode of a D controller causes theoretically a large change in output of extremely short duration for a step-change in error. In practice, the effect of a derivative controller is to cause a short increase in the output variable, which then returns to the previous value.

Some of the inherent advantages of the feedback control strategy are as follows regardless of the source or nature of the disturbance, the manipulated variable(s) adjusts to correct for the deviation from the setpoint when the deviation is detected the proper values of the manipulated variables are continually sought to balance the system by a trial-and-error approach no mathematical model of the process is required and the most often used feedback control algorithm (some form of proportional—integral—derivative control) is both robust and versatile. 

This is a mode of control that anticipates when a process variable will reach its desired control point by sensing its rate of change. This allows a control change to take place before the process variable overshoots the desired control point. You might say that derivative control gives you a little kick ahead.

We have to wait until the controller chapters to see that this function is the basis of a derivative controller and not till the frequency response chapter to appreciate the terms lead and lag. For now, we take a quick look at its time response. 

We certainly want to respond very differently if the temperature of a chemical reactor is changing at a rate of 100°C/s as opposed to l°C/s. In a way, we want to "project" the error and make corrections accordingly. In contrast, proportional and integral controls are based on the present and the past. Derivative controller action is based on how fast the error is changing with time (rate action control). We can write... 

To reduce derivative kick (the sudden jolt in response to set point changes), the derivative action can be based on the rate of change of the measured (controlled) variable instead of the rate of change of the error. One possible implementation of this idea is in Fig. 5.3. This way, the derivative control action ignores changes in the reference and just tries to keep the measured variable constant.2...

Example 5.4 Derive the closed-loop transfer function of a system with proportional-derivative control and a first order process. 

The time weighting function puts a heavy penalty on errors that persist for long periods of time. This weighting function also helps to derive controller settings which allow for low settling times. 

When we tune the feedforward controller, we may take, as a first approximation, xFLD as the sum of the time constants xm and x v. Analogous to the "real" derivative control function, we can choose the lag time constant to be a tenth smaller, xFLG = 0.1 xFLD. If the dynamics of the measurement device is extremely fast, Gm = KmL, and if we have cascade control, the time constant x v is also small, and we may not need the lead-lag element in the feedforward controller. Just the use of the steady state compensator Kpp may suffice. In any event, the feedforward controller must be tuned with computer simulations, and subsequently, field tests.

Ashkin and Dziedzic (1977) used the radiation pressure force of a laser beam to levitate microdroplets with the apparatus presented in Fig. 15. A polarized and electro-optically modulated laser beam illuminated the particle from below. The vertical position of the particle was detected using the lens and split photodiode system shown. When the particle moved up or down a difference signal was generated then a voltage proportional to the difference and its derivative were added, and the summed signal used to control an electro-optic modulator to alter the laser beam intensity. Derivative control serves to damp particle oscillations, while the proportional control maintains the particle at the null point.

As expected, system 13 did in fact bind and transport zwitterionic a-amino acids through a model membrane barrier with good selectivity under conditions where the porphyrin-derived control system (14), lacking the carboxylate anion chelation ability inherent in 13, would not. Specifically, it was found that at neutral pH compound 13 acts as a very efficient carrier for the through model membrane (H2O-CH2CI2-H2O) transport of phenylalanine and tryptophan. Further, in direct competition experiments, L-phenylalanine was found to be transported four times faster than L-tryptophan and 1000 times faster than L-tyrosine. As implied above, little or no transport was observed when a porphyrin control (14) was used. Nor was significant transport observed when a mixture of sapphyrin and lasalocid was used. 

There are two frequently used algorithms to determine the control action in a feedback control system for bioprocess control, an on-off (two-positioned) control, and a PID (proportional-integral-derivative) control.
