Question: In the process shown below, two liquid streams with mass flowrates w 1 and w 2 ( k g s ) and a density of

In the process shown below, two liquid streams with mass flowrates w1 and
w2(kgs) and a density of (kgm3), enter the cylindrical tank with a cross-
sectional area, A. The outgoing stream mass flowrate is given in term of the
liquid level in the tank by w=kh2, where k is a constant.
Develop the process and disturbance transfer functions relating the manipulated
variable (w1) and the disturbance (w2) to the controlled variable (h). Write
down the expressions for the system time constant and the process/load steady-
state gain.
Show that the unit of the time constant is in sec.
Sketch the P&ID and the block diagram for the level control loop, assuming
that the level transducer and the controller are analog electronic units with an
output 4-20 mA and the control valve is pneumatically actuated.
In the process shown below, two liquid streams
