Answer / waqas ali
A PID controller is composed of three components:
P - Proportional
I - Integral
D - Differential
It controls the overall response of a system. The "P" term
controls the gain of the system. The "I" term controls
error and "D" term controls the overshoot of the system.

Actually we can make it simple:
# P:
it's a controller gain which modify the controller o/p
proportional to the error.
# I:
it's a controller gain which modify the controller o/p
proportional to the integral of the error.
# D:
it's a controller gain which modify the controller o/p
proportional to error rate of change.
We have 4 parameters in our control loop to focus on:
1 - the rise time: the period of time during which the pv
get 90% of the desired sp value
2 - max overshoot
3 - settling time: the period of time during which the pv
get the desired sp value and saturate.
4 - error/offset
we can get it clear from this pic:

Now we will take a look about the effect of each controller
gain on these parameters:
# P gain:
decrease rise time
increase max.overshoot
increase settling time
decrease error (but not eliminate)
# I gain:
decrease rise time
increase max.overshoot
increase settling time
eliminate error.
# D gain:
no effect on rise time
decrease max.overshoot
decrease settling time
decrease error.
the previous is guidelines to be in background while
dealing with PID,but they are not sharp limits.

Answer / ajith294
At first you should understand what is the controller.
A controller is the device in a closed loop, that compares the measured valve (actual valve) with the desired valve and calculate the out put manipulated variable. Then The time (T) responds is determined by P,I,D
P: manipulated variable our put is proportional to the system deviation. that means variable only present if there is any system deviation.
I: manipulated variable is continues to increase, the system deviation decreases. this process continuous until system deviation is zero.
D: Differential compound evaluate the speed of change of the system deviation.
so if using the PID controls, we can control the flow to our desired valve at a very short time.
Best Regards

PID controller is use to correct the errors between measure value PV ( i.e process value ) and set piont (sp).
