Abstract-From the last decade, the need for electric driven vehicle has risen rapidly due to the global warming problem. The traditional Proportional-Integral-Derivative controller, which has been widely used for the speed control of dc motor drives, has been compared with the relatively new Integral-Proportional-Derivative controller which first discussed in the year of 1978. PID controller is used to control the speed of DC Motor. A model is developed and simulated using MATLAB/SIMULINK. This paper presents different speed controlling strategies for DC motor. These strategies are Proportional Controller, Proportional Integral Controller, Proportional Derivative Controller, Proportional Integral Derivative Controller. Mathematical model of separately excited DC motor is developed and speed of the motor is controlled by PID controller in MATLAB/SIMULINK environment. Tuning of the controller is done by using two different methods and results are compared. Index Terms- MATLAB/SIMULINK, excited, tuning. 1. INTRODUCTION DC motor is the most common choice if wide range of adjustable speed drive operation is specified. Of the three kinds of DC motors – series shunt and separately excited DC motors, separately excited DC motors are most often used. Different speed can be obtained by changing the armature voltage and the field voltage. A common actuator in control systems is the DC motor. It directly provides the rotary motion and, coupled with wheels or drums and cables, can provide transitional motion. Today variant applications require more and more features such as speed applications to multipurpose accessories, user friendly interfaces, and security features. Different type of electric motor is shown in next figure. [1]

Fig.1.Types of electric motor DC machines continue to be widely used in industry. A major application for small DC electric motors is in automobiles. Large DC motors are used in power shovels, elevators, and some factories. Factories such as aluminum and steel rolling mills use large numbers of DC motors. These applications require the precise control of speed and torque which the DC motors can provide. The higher maintenance cost of the DC motors is accepted because of their precise performance capabilities. The DC motors in rolling mills may be in sizes up to and even exceeding
