Hi experts
I need a suggestion regarding a project
Currently i am doing a hydro electric project. I am using a siemens plc, g120 drive (2 no's) and 2 incremental encoders
We have turbine which contains a wicket gate through which water is entering the turbines. When water hits the turbine it rotates the turbine and a generator also.
And some power can be produced.
So our aim is to control the wicket gate movement(angular motion) to produce necessary power. The control should through a pid block. So my concern is
what should be the input to pid block??
Flow or power
