I am working on the temperature control of an electric oven. I had the idea of obtaining the temperature-time curve when the oven is fed with the alternating wave at maximum power (220 V 60 Hz). According to the Ziegler-Nichols tuning method, my curve would be the response of the system (oven) to a "unit step". But here I have a doubt. To control the power, I am using a BT136 triac, which receives a 5 volt PWM wave at its gate. When this 5 volt PWM signal is at 100% duty cycle, could I consider it as a unit step?
