To get desirable water quality therefore brine heater
temperature need to be locked after that stable regular. It can be done if steam flow runaway speed that turns in at brine heater can be restrained. On the job training will be determined using the method of system stability of Routh Hurwitz and whose results can be used as a reference for tuning PID using Ziegler - Nichols method. Based on Routh Hurwitz analysis obtained the result that temperature control system will be stable with the value range -1,47 < Kc < 78,743. After dine tuning PID using Ziegler Nichols and simulated by matlab simulink software acquired the most stable at response control type P with settling time 16 s with maximum overshoot 46.7%. But with the value of overshoot 46.7% can be concluded that the PID tuning with methods Ziegler - Nichols less precise when applied in a brine heater temperature control.
