PID controller parameter calculator
Estimate starting PID gains for temperature or pressure loops before fine-tuning on the plant.
PID controller parameters
Starting gain estimates from the ultimate gain `Ku` and oscillation period `Pu`.
Kp
2.2727
Ki
0.5165
Kd
0.7215
Ti
4.4 s
Td
0.3175 s
Method
Tyreus-Luyben
PID: Kp = Ku / 2.2, Ti = 2.2Pu, Td = Pu / 6.3
Frequently asked questions
Are calculated PID gains final?
No — they are starting estimates. Fine-tune Kp, Ki and Kd on the real process after commissioning.
