Question: Problem B - 7 - 2 0 Consider the thermal system shown in Figure 7 - 4 1 . The temperature of the inflow liquid

Problem B-7-20
Consider the thermal system shown in Figure 7-41. The temperature of the inflow liquid is kept constant, and the liquid inflow rate Gkgs is also kept constant. For t0, the system is at steady state, wherein the heat input from the heater is ?bar(U)kcals and the temperature of the liquid in tank 2 is ?bar()2C. At t=0, the heat input is changed from ?bar(U) to ?bar(U)+u, where u is small. This change will cause the temperature of the liquid in tank 2 to change from ?bar()2 to widehat()2+2. Taking the change in the heat input from the heater to be the input to the system and the change in the temperature of the liquid in tank 2 to be the output, obtain the transfer function 2sU(s). Assume that the thermal capacitances of tanks 1 and 2 are C1kcalC and C2kcalC, respectively, and that the specific heat of the liquid is ckcalkgC. The steady-state heat flow rates from tanks 1 and 2 are the same, ?bar(Q)kcals. The changes in heat flow rates from tanks 1 and 2 are q1, and q2, respectively.
