ABSTRACT:
A method of determining the degree z of a hyperbolic non-linear characteristic, of a process that is controlled by application of a manipulated variable signal thereto for varying a first characteristic thereof, and that generates a controlled variable signal representative of that first characteristic by applying a first pulse to the process by stepping the manipulated variable signal and observing the resultant maximum change in the controlled variable and then applying a second pulse to the process by stepping the manipulated variable in the opposite direction and observing the maximum change in the controlled variable, and using the ratio of the two maxima to determine the non-linear characteristic and make appropriate compensation in the controller.
