Tunning of pid controller for coupled-tank liquid levl control system using a stochastic search technique

A common control problem in process industries is the control of fluid and temperature in storage tank, chemical blending and reaction vessel. The situation requires fluid to be supplied to a chemical reactor at a constant rate. An upper tank can be used for filtering the variations in the upstream...
