A stirred-tank heating system is shown below. Briefly critique these two control strategies [mark 25 1....
A stirred tank flow reactor is operating in continuous mode (shown below), and an exothermic (heat generating) chemical reaction is taking place inside the reactor. The control objective is to maintain the concentration of product at a desired value (set point). The conversion of chemical reaction is highly dependent on the reaction temperature. To maintain the reaction temperature at the desired value, a cooling water jacket is used for the reactor. The major input disturbance is fluctuation in the temperature...

4 (a) Based on the block diagram for a control system (Figure Q4(a) below) determine the transfer function between the error and the set point, E(s)/R(s) (8 marks) R(s)+ c(p) m(s) Figure Q4(a) Figure Q4(b) below shows two different control strategies for a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR). The reaction A → B is exothermic and the heat generated is removed by the coolant flowing through the jacket. It is assumed the flowrate of the reactor feed is fixed. Two...

N(S) R(s) Gp(s) Process A(s) H(s) = _100_ , and H(s)-1 / GAS). Let Gs)-A(S)5.and Find the steady state value of the response C(t), when N(t) = R(t) = unit-step function. Is this also the maximum value attained by the response? Justify your answers. (s2+2s+4)
QUESTION 2 The system shown below is a fermentation tank. In this, water (with dissolved glucose) enters the tank with a flow rate of q: [L/min) and a glucose concentration of c [mol/L). During reaction, glucose is converted at a rate of n = -VKc (where n is the moles of glucose converted per minute [mol/min), V is the volume of fluid in the tank (L'), and K is the reaction rate). The tank has a cross-sectional area of A....
A pump transports water from Tank 1 to Tank 2 through a constant-diameter piping system as shown below (not to scale). The flow rate is controlled by two gate valves, the gate valve I controls the main pipeline, while the gate valve II controls the loop line from T-joint A to T-joint B. All pipes are galvanized steel pipe of diameter D = 4 in. It has a total length of Li2= 620 ft from tank 1 to tank 2....
