The coefficient of proportional controller is tuned. At first, around 120 seconds or two minutes, which is not too fast or
the coefficient is set to zero. Then, the coefficient is raised up too slow. If the time needed to stabilize is too fast, it can cause

of proportional controller that resulting oscillate is called as moving too fast.
Ultimate Proportional Band (PBU, while the oscillation period
is called Ultimate Period (Pu). By doing simulation in
computer software, the value of PBU is 25.16, while the PU is
12.08. Then, the coefficient of proportional controller (KP),
integral controller (Ki) and derivative controller (Kd) is
calculated by using Ziegler-Nichols rules. The calculation of
PID controller coefficient is as follow:
Kp = 0.6 x PBU (1)
Kp = 0.6 x 25.16 = 15.1
Ki = 2 x Kp / PU (2)
Ki = 2 x 15.1 / 12.08 = 2.5
Kd = 0.125 x Pu x Kp (3)
Kd = 0.125 x 12.08 x 15.1 = 22.81
