Application of Single Neuron Adaptive PID Algorithm in Natural Gas Automatic Distribution Control System

Abstract Aiming at the most important control link of electric regulating valve in automatic distribution control system of natural gas station, this paper proposed to use single neuron adaptive Proportional-Integral-Derivative (SNA-PID) algorithm to make up for the problems of the traditional Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) algorithm, such as the difficulty of parameter setting and the inability to adapt to system interference. In order to compare the performance of the algorithm, the transfer function between the valve opening of the electric regulating valve on the branch of the gas transmission system of a natural gas station was taken as an example to simulate various practical application scenarios, and the control performance of the two algorithms was studied in detail. Finally, the practical engineering application and the performance verification of the algorithm were carried out in a natural gas distribution station in Jiangxi Province. The results showed that, compared with the PID algorithm, the SNA-PID algorithm can automatically adjust its own algorithm parameters, greatly reduce the number of valve operations during the adjustment process, and control the valve opening more smoothly, adjust the branch pressure more quickly and effectively, and also has a strong anti-interference ability. Therefore, SNA-PID algorithm is more suitable for the automatic distribution control system of natural gas station than the PID algorithm.
