mode.
The derivative term describes the rate of change of
the error at a point in time and therefore promotes a very rapid control
response—much faster than the normal response of an HVAC system.
Because of this it is usually preferable to avoid the use of derivative
control with HVAC. Proportional plus integral (PI) control is preferred,
and will lead to improvements in accuracy and energy consumption
when compared to proportional control alone.
Most pneumatic controllers are proportional mode only, although PI
mode is available. Most electronic controllers have all three modes
available. In a computer-based control system, any mode can be pro-
grammed by writing the proper algorithm.
