Q1.(25 marks)
The dynamic behavior of the liquid level in each leg of a manometer tube, responding to a change in pressure, is given by:
d2h'dt2+6R2*dh'dt+32*gLh'=34Lp'(t)
The output is the level of fluid measured with respect to the initial steady-state value, the output is the pressure change in the manometer. R,L, and are constants.
a. What order is the TF of this system? Why? (2 marks)
b. Find all the parameters of that TF (gain, time constant and damping coefficient).(15 marks)
c. For what values of the damping coefficient does the height oscillate? Why? (I marks)
d. If density of the fluid increases, would the height oscillate more or less? Why? (3.5 marks)
e. If the viscosity of the fluid increases, would the height oscillate more or less? Why? (3.5 marks)
For the last 2 parts, please indicate in a rough plot, as to how the response to a step input of this underdamped system will change when the density increases (all other parameters constant) and viscosity increases (all other parameters constant), in separate cases.
