Nonlinearities Recommendations Tips
We conclude our review of nonlinearities with an overview of applications and a detailed list of simple solutions to minimize the adverse effects of this everyday problem in nearly all control loops. It is impressive how setting lambda equal to 3x the largest deadtime value helps to solve most nonlinearity problems. Lambda is the closed loop time constant for self-regulating processes and the arrest time for integrating and runaway processes.
