Transfer Functions
Convenient representation of a linear, dynamic model.

Chapter 4

A transfer function (TF) relates one input and one output:


x t
y t
system
X s
Y s
The following terminology is used:
x
y
input

output

forcing function

response

cause

effect

The TF model enables us to determine the output response to


any change in an input.

Definition of the transfer function:


Let G(s) denote the transfer function between an input, x, and an
output, y. Then, by definition

Transfer Functions for a Process

Example: Stirred Tank Heating


System

Equation (1) is the energy balance of the stirred-tank heating


system, assuming constant liquid holdup and flow rates:

K (gain) it describes how far the output will travel


with the change of the input.
*If a process has a large K, then a small change in the
input will cause the output to move a large amount. If a
process has a small K, the same input change will move
the output a small amount

(time constant) describes how fast the output moves


in response to a change in the input.
*The time constant must be positive and it must have units of
time

Transfer Functions for a Controller


Proportional Control
For proportional control, the controller output is proportional to
the error signal,
p t p Kce t
(8-2)
where:

p t controller output
p bias (steady-state) value
K c controller gain (usually dimensionless)
p is controller output when the error is zero

-The proportionality is given by the controller gain, Kc


-The controller gain determines how much the output
from the controller changes for a given change in error
Transfer function

Integral Control
For integral control action, the controller output depends on the
integral of the error signal over time,
1
p t p
I

0 e t * dt *

(8-7)

where I , an adjustable parameter referred to as the integral time


or reset time, has units of time.
Integral control action is normally used in conjunction with
proportional control as the proportional-integral (PI) controller :

1
p t p Kc e t
I

0 e t * dt *
t

(8-8)

The corresponding transfer function for the PI controller in is


given by

Transfer function
The PI controller has two parameters, Kc and I

Derivative Control
The function of derivative control gives the controller the
capability to anticipate where the process is heading by
calculating the derivative error
Thus, for ideal derivative action,
p t p D

de t
dt

where D , the derivative time, has units of time.

(8-10)

Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) Control


Now we consider the combination of the proportional, integral,
and derivative control modes as a PID controller.
Form of PID Control
The form of the PID control algorithm is given by

1 t
p t p K c e t e t * dt *

The corresponding transfer function is:
