ABSTRACT Automatic voltage regulation is an important study concerning the
variation in rated voltage due to inductive and capacitive loads. Inductive loads leads to a
voltage drop and capacitive load leads to a voltage rise and result in variation of voltage
from its rated value. For satisfactory working of various electrical appliances, regulation in
voltage is very much important, the prescribed limit for voltage variation is within (
of its normal value, so that consumer’s equipment operate satisfactory [1]. It is therefore, in
present work we have designed automatic voltage regulator using MATLAB simulink and
evaluated its performance with PID controller. The controller has been tuned using ZN
closed loop Tyerus-Luyben and Astrom Hugglund methods, Singular Frequency method
and IMC method. It has been observed that Tyerus-Luyben based PID controller gives the
best performance among these controllers to improve the dynamic response, reduced
transient and eliminate the steady state error with in minimum time. The comparative
study of different PID tuning methods for automatic voltage regulation is main outcome of
this paper.

Conclusion - In this paper, we have given a comparative study of tuning of PID controllers to
achieve automatic voltage regulation. We have modeled PID controlled AVR system using
MATLAB simulink, SISO compensator design tool and automated PID tuner. We have tuned the
PID controller for AVR system using different methods like ZN-Tyerus Luyben, ZN-Astrom
Hugglund, Singular frequency and Internal model control. It has been observed that ZN- Tyerus
Luyben tuner gives best results among listed method. It gives minimum transient and settles in 6
seconds after the disturbance, which is best performance among all.
