Abstract: Electronic Flow Computers (EFC) often function as flow and/or pressure controllers on pipeline systems. Because the EFC calculates the flow and can accept pressure signals, it is an obvious choice to also perform the control function. The process control algorithm that is embedded in the EFC firmware is some version of a Proportional/Integral/Derivative (PID) controller. This PID controller must be tuned to the process in order to provide stable, accurate and robust control. To be effective in setting up and tuning a control loop the following must be understood.
