Abstract

In this study a new designing methodology of internal model control (IMC) with anti-windup feature is suggested. Due to presence of integral action in the conventional IMC structure reset, windup effect is found quite often. This limitation can be overcome by incorporating the proposed anti-windup scheme. Efficacy of the reported technique is experimentally verified on hot air flow process (User Manual, 2014) and level control loop (User Manual, 2010b).
