PID Tuning API

healthy 4,305 Subscribers

PID-controller-tuning maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically. The ziegler-nichols endpoint computes controller gains with the closed-loop (ultimate-gain) method: from the ultimate gain Ku at which the loop sustains oscillation and its period Tu it returns the proportional, integral and derivative gains for a P, PI, PD or PID controller using the classic table (PID: Kp = 0.6·Ku, Ti = 0.5·Tu, Td = 0.125·Tu), in both the standard (Ti, Td) and parallel (Ki, Kd) parameters. The reaction-curve endpoint computes gains with the open-loop method from a step-response process model — the process gain K, the dead time L and the time constant T — using the Ziegler-Nichols reaction-curve table (PID: Kp = 1.2·T/(K·L), Ti = 2L, Td = 0.5L). The convert endpoint translates between the parallel form (Kp, Ki, Kd) and the standard form (Kp, Ti, Td) using Ki = Kp/Ti and Kd = Kp·Td. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for industrial-automation, robotics, process-control, motor-control and IoT app developers, controller-tuning and loop-design tools, and control-systems education. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 endpoints. This is PID controller tuning; for op-amp circuits use an op-amp API and for resonance and reactance a resonance API.

Suspension Tuning API

Vehicle-suspension maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically — the spring and frequency numbers a racer, tuner or chassis engineer sets a car up with. The wheel-rate endpoint converts a spring rate to the rate the wheel actually feels: wheel rate = spring rate × motion ratio², where the motion ratio is the spring's travel per unit of wheel travel — a 200 lb/in spring at a 0.7 motion ratio gives a 98 lb/in wheel rate, because the spring's leverage softens it. The frequency endpoint gives the ride (natural) frequency at a corner, f = (1/2π)·√(wheel rate × g ÷ corner sprung weight), the number that really sets the ride: luxury cars run about 0.5–1.2 Hz, sporty street 1.2–1.7, race cars 2 Hz and up. The spring-rate endpoint inverts it — the spring rate needed to hit a target frequency for a corner weight and motion ratio — so you can pick the frequency for the car's job and get the spring straight out. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for motorsport and tuning apps, chassis-setup and corner-balancing tools, suspension-design calculators, and engineering study aids. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 compute endpoints. Estimates — real ride also depends on damping and tyres.

Screw Auger API

Screw-conveyor and grain-auger maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically — the capacity, speed and throughput numbers a farmer, millwright or material-handling engineer sizes an auger with. The capacity endpoint gives the volumetric throughput from the screw geometry: the annular flight volume per turn ((π/4)(diameter² − shaft²) × pitch) × rpm × 60 × the trough loading, so a 9-inch full-pitch screw on a 2.5-inch shaft at 40 rpm and 45 % loading moves about 330 cubic feet — 265 bushels — an hour. The speed endpoint inverts it, the rpm needed for a target capacity, so you don't overspeed a small auger and grind the grain. The bushels endpoint converts a volumetric rate to bushels and tons per hour (1 bushel = 1.2445 ft³, tons = bushels × test weight ÷ 2000), so 330 ft³/hr of 56-lb corn is 265 bushels or 7.4 tons an hour — the number you match to the dryer or the truck. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for grain-handling and ag-equipment apps, material-handling and conveyor-design tools, farm-build calculators, and engineering aids. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 compute endpoints. Estimates — incline and material change real throughput. For belt conveyors use a conveyor API.

Radiant Floor API

Radiant-floor and hydronic heating maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically — the output, tubing and flow numbers an installer or DIYer designs a warm floor with. The output endpoint gives the heat a warm floor puts out: about 2 BTU/hr per square foot for every °F the floor surface is above the room, so an 85 °F floor in a 70 °F room delivers roughly 30 BTU/hr/ft² — about 9,000 BTU/hr over 300 ft², the comfort ceiling since the floor is held at ~85 °F. The tubing endpoint gives the tube and loops for an area at a spacing: field tubing = area × 12 ÷ spacing, so 300 ft² at 9-inch spacing needs 400 feet of tube, split into loops kept under ~300 feet (two 200-foot loops) so the pump can push them. The flow endpoint gives the loop flow rate for a heat load, GPM = load ÷ (500 × ΔT) where 500 is water's constant and ΔT is the supply-to-return drop — 9,000 BTU/hr at a 20 °F ΔT wants 0.9 GPM. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for radiant-heating and plumbing apps, hydronic-design and PEX-layout tools, HVAC contractor calculators, and DIY-build sites. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 compute endpoints. Estimates — verify with a full heat-loss calc. For building load use an HVAC API; for pipe velocity use a flow-rate API.

Ladder Safety API

Ladder-safety maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically — the angle, reach and load numbers that keep a ladder from sliding out or buckling. The angle endpoint applies the 4:1 rule: the base goes out one foot for every four feet of working length, which lands the ladder at about 75.5° — a 24-foot ladder sits 6 feet from the wall and reaches roughly 23 feet up, steep enough not to tip back and shallow enough not to slide. The extension endpoint gives the usable length and reach of a two-section extension ladder, which loses the overlap the sections share (3 feet up to 36, 4 to 48, 5 beyond), and the working height at the safe angle — remembering the ladder must extend 3 feet above a roof edge you step onto. The duty-rating endpoint turns a total load — your weight plus tools and materials, not just bodyweight — into the right duty class, from Type III household (200 lb) through I industrial (250) to IAA professional (375). Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for construction-safety and trades apps, jobsite and rental tools, OSHA training aids, and home-improvement sites. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 compute endpoints. Educational — always follow the manufacturer's labels and OSHA/ANSI rules.
