Proportional Controllers
x A K (Tset point Tmeasured )
x is controller output
A is controller output with no error
(often A=0)
Kis proportional gain constant
e = Tset point Tmeasured is error (offset)

If controller is tuned
properly, offset is
reduced to zero

Proportional + Integral +
Derivative (PID)
Improvement over PI because of faster response
and less deviation from offset
Increases rate of error correction as errors get larger
But
HVAC controlled devices are too slow responding
Requires setting three different gains

Example 2:

Heat gains
Humidity generation
We should supply air with lower humidity ratio (w) and lower temperature
We either measure Dew Point directly or T & RH sensors substitute dew point sensor
