Research on speed control algorithm of belt conveyor based on controllable parameter PSO-PID

Aiming at the problems of excessive average acceleration, large overshoot and obvious oscillation in belt conveyor speed regulation, a parameter controllable particle swarm optimization–proportional–integral–derivative (PSOPID) speed control algorithm is proposed. Simulation analysis shows that the algorithm can maintain the average acceleration within a reasonable range and significantly reduce overshoot and oscillation, which can effectively reduce the damage to the belt conveyor caused by speed regulation and maximize the high efficiency. And the algorithm thus has high application value in coal, port, power, mining, metallurgy, chemical industry and other industries.
