The following parameters are available. K = -1 , α = 0.4, β = 45 s, ϴ = 30 s and
𝑚𝑙/ℎ
τ = 40 s. Simulate and plot the response y(t) for a unit step change in input u(t).
Q.3 A process consists of two stirred tanks with input Q and outputs T1 and T2 (see
Figure).
Q Tank 1 T1 Tank 2 T2
To test the hypothesis that the dynamics in each tank are basically first order, a step
change in q is made from 82 to 85 L/min, with output response given in Table below.
Q.4 An electronic PID temperature controller is at steady state with an output of 12 mA.
The set point equals the nominal process temperature initially. At t = 0, the set point is
increased at the rate of 0.5 mA/min. If the current settings are 𝐾𝑐 = 2, 𝜏𝐼 =1.5 min,
𝜏𝐷 =0.5 min.
(a) Generate the controller response in Simulink.
(b) Repeat part (a) for a PI controller
