1. The document is a test paper for the subject Advanced Process Control. It contains 5 questions related to process dynamics and control systems. 2. Question 1 asks the student to find the response and sketch the response of a given system to a unit step input. Question 2 involves determining the Laplace transform and various values of the response for a two tank system with changing inlet flow. 3. Question 3 requires calculating the steady state gain and time constant of a first order process based on data from a change in inlet flow rate. 4. Question 4 involves determining various properties like closed loop response, offset, and stability for a given control system. 5. Question 5 asks the student to draw the

NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, TIRUCHIRAPPALLI - 620 015

M.TECH. DEGREE I SEMESTER, I CYCLE TEST

BRANCH: CHEMICAL ENGINEERING


SUB. CODE & TITLE: CL601 ADVANCED PROCESS CONTROL
DATE: 09-11-2020 TIME: 04.00 a.m. To 05.00 a.m. MAX. MARKS: 25

ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS


1. Find the response of the following system to a unit step input. Tabulate and sketch the
response.
y(s) (−3s + 1)(− s + 1)
= .
x( s) (2s + 1)(4s + 1)(5s + 1)

2. The two tanks shown in figure are connected in an interacting fashion. The system is
initially at steady state with q = 10 cfm. The following data apply to the tanks: A1 =
1ft2, A2 = 1.25 ft2, R1 = 1 ft/cfm and R2 = 0.8 ft/cfm.

a. If the flow changes from 10 to 11 cfm according to a step change, determine H2(s),
i.e. the Laplace transform of H2(t), where H2 is the deviation in h2.
b. Determine H2(1), H2(4), H2(∞).
c. Determine the initial levels (actual levels) h1(0) and h2(0) in the tanks.
d. Obtain an expression for H1(s) for the unit-step change described above.

3. A single-tank process has been operating for a long period of


time with the inlet flow rate qi equal to 30.4 ft3/min. After the
operator increases the flow rate suddenly at t = 0 by 10%, the
liquid level in the tank changes as shown in Table. Assuming
that the process dynamics can be described by a first-order
model, calculate the steady-state gain and the time constant
using any two methods

4. For the control system shown in Figure, determine

a) C(S)/R(s) b) C(∞) c) Offset d) C(0.5) e) Whether closed loop response is


oscillatory?

5. Draw the Nyquist diagram for the process G(s)=4/(2s+1)(4s+1). Determine the
proportional gain that can be used.
