CONTROL OF FLOW RATE IN HEAVY-OIL PIPELINES USING PID CONTROLLER

Along with the development of urbanization and the needs of the industry, more and more trunk oil pipelines are being built and serviced. For this industry, more reliable, effective and flexible control systems for the automation of the oil pipeline system are needed to prevent leaks during transportation. PID controller is used to control the flow rate of heavy oil in pipelines by controlling the vibration in the motor pump. Torsion actuator is installed on the motor pump to control the vibration in the motor and thus control the flow rate in the pipelines.
