Design a PID controller for a cooling system where the objective is to maintain a specific temperature despite external temperature variations. Use a fictitious transfer function and outline your design steps.
💡 Hint: Make sure you reflect on how temperature changes can affect your PID parameters.
Evaluate a PID controller implemented in a system. If the response shows prolonged oscillations, how would you theorize adjustments to the Kd value? Explain your reasoning.
💡 Hint: Think about how derivative control predicts future behavior based on current trends.
