a. The curve A is an example of PI controller. From the diagram, it can be observed that there are oscillations, but there is no offset. The PI controller just does the same. It introduces oscillations into the system and removes the offset.
The curve B is based on PID controller as there are no oscillations. If the aim is to remove the offset as well as the oscillations, the derivative action is added to the PI controller, which results in PID controller.
b. Curve B is more aggressive. As the derivative action of PID controller is anticipatory. It helps the system preact for any upcoming disturbances.
c. Curve B is more suited for set point tracking as the curve B
has the lesser value of . It can also
be understood as lesser the vaue of
, nearer is the
destination. i.e. the curve reaches to its set point more quickly
than the curve A.
d. Curve A is more suited for disturbance rejection as the
value of is more, so it
will take more time for the curve A to respond to the disturbance.
Curve B leads to the system being disturbed immediately as the
value of
is less.
e. The curve A is underdamped as there are oscillations.
f.Curve A is guaranteed to have a characteristic equation with
complex roots as the value of . The roots
obtained as complex conjugates.
g. The curve B shows the behavior of an overdamped or critically
damped system, that is either
. For both the conditions, there will be real positive roots.
h. The setpoint tracking is more important as in the industry the hot water utility for a particular process is fixed for a particular temperature. The system just has to make sure that the desired temperature is maintained.
Figure 2a shows the response of a process to a setpoint (SP) increase of 5°C for...
15.3 A conventional controller is to be used in the scheme shown below in Figure P15.1 for controlling the exit temperature of the industrial heat exchanger first introduced in Problem 14.2. Assuming that Tz, the brine temperature (in °C), remains constant, the transfer function relations for the process have been previously given as: 1 -0.5e-10* (40s I)(15s)(BB (P14.3b) Assume that the valve dynamics are negligible. (a) Use the provided model in a control system simulation package to obtain a process...
True or False/Short Answer Questions The ramp response of a 1st order system can be oscillating. Using the state space representation, the number of rows in the matrix B is equal to the number of outputs. Closed-Loop Control systems are insensitive to external disturbances. Two physically different systems must be modeled by two different transfer functions. For an LTI system, the time derivative of the unit impulse response is the unit ramp response. If a system has two real and...
