Abstract
In this study, liquid level control in a coupled tank system is realized with PI controllers whose parameters are adapted using fuzzy logic approximation methods. Type-1 fuzzy PI control, interval type-2 fuzzy PI control and classical PI+Feedforward control methods are applied to the tank system in real time for different reference liquid levels. The performances of the controllers are compared in terms of system response parameters such as rise time, settling time and overshoot percentage. In addition, the performance evaluation of the controllers over a certain period of time is also compared by calculating integral-based concepts that express error performance metrics such as integral square error (ISE), integral time square error (ITSE), integral absolute error (IAE) and integral time absolute error (ITAE). The obtained results show that the type-2 fuzzy PI controller shows the best performance, followed by type-1 fuzzy PI control and classical PI+FF controller, respectively.
