You can also use the Xcos file twodof_simulation.xcos, shown in figure 6.4, to simulate your controller before implementing on SBHS. This will help you validate your controller. You need to execute getd dc/scilab and then execute the file twodof_para.sce. Now run twodof_simulation.xcos. Figure 6.5 shows the simulation results. Note that, execution of this Xcos file is not mandatory for performing a virtual experiment.

The performance of the controller is shown in figure 6.8.

It is seen that the output (temperature) tracks the setpoint irrespective of the step changes in the fan speed.
We see that the overshoot turns out to be 6% and rise time turns out to be 60 seconds, which is acceptable.
