Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

You are tasked with manually tuning a PID controller for a temperature regulation system that exhibits excessive overshoot. Outline the steps you would take and the reasoning behind each adjustment.

💡 Hint: Think about stability and iteration in your adjustments.

Challenge 2 Hard

During manual tuning, you notice that the system response time is too long after minimizing oscillations. What strategies might you employ to enhance responsiveness without losing stability?

💡 Hint: Consider the roles of Kp and Kd together.
