The figure shows a system with a cooling jacket. Heat is transferred from
the wall of the tank to the fluid in the jacket by convection. The heat
transfer from the fluid in the tank to the fluid in the jacket is formulated
as Tco The tank is mixed very well. The output temperature
of the tank is desired to be kept at by adjusting the flow rate of
the cooling water with a controller. The volume of fluid in the inner tank
is ; the density of the fluid is ; the heat capacity of
the fluid is kca The feed flow rate of the fluid fed to the
system is and the feed temperature is The feed
temperature of the cooling fluid
The transfer functions of thermocouple and pneumatic valve used in the proposed feedback control loop are
given as and respectively.
a Derive the transfer function of the system without control loop
b Calculate the controller parameters in order to hold the output temperature of fluid at
c On the tank controlled with if the temperature of decreases to find the last temperature of the
fluid and flow rate of the cooling fluid.
