recognize that you need a transfer function representing the liquid level system under consideration. You then set out to determine the transfer function H(s)/Q(s) for the liquid. level system shown below. You make the very reasonable assumptions that: 1. Resistances R1 and R2 are linear. 2. The flow rate from tank 3 is maintained constant at a value b by a pump, meaning that the flow from tank 3 is independent of head h. 3. The tanks are non-interacting. Please show all work for credit including: - Derivation of mass balance equation for each tank (10 points) - Derivation of deviation variables for each tank (5 points) - Derivation of transfer function for each tank including the Laplace transform. (10 points) - Define the time constants for tanks 1 and 2. (5 points) - Directly derive (must show calculation) the resulting transfer function H(s)/Q(s) based on the above steps only. (20 points)
