1. A process input is given by the following expression

LIST

QUIZ
Because we know that the LIST
Laplace transform of the output can express the product of the system transfer
function and the Laplace transform of the input, give all possible combinations of G(s) and U(s) that yield the
above Y (s) and interpret them.

2. A heated process is used to heat a semiconductor wafer operates with first-order dynamics, that is, the
List in temperature T to changes in the heater input power level P is
transfer function relating changes

where K has units [0C/Kw] and

has units [minutes].

The process is at steady state when an engineer changes the power input stepwise from 1 to 1.5 Kw.
She notes the following:
1. The process temperature initially is 80 0C.
2. Four minutes after changing the power input, the temperature is 230 0C.
3. Thirty minutes later the temperature is 280 0C.
(a) What are K and

in the process transfer function?

(b) If at another time the engineer changes the power input linearly at a rate of 0.5 kW/min, what can you say
about the maximum rate of change process temperature. When will it occur? How large will it be?
3. The dynamic behavior of the liquid level in each leg of a manometer tube, responding to a change in
pressure, is given by

where h'(t) is the level of fluid measured with respect to the initial steady-state value, p'(t) is the pressure
change, and

and

are constants

(a) Rearrange this equation into standard gain-time constant form and find expressions for
the physical constants

in terms of

(b) For what values of the physical constants does the manometer response oscillate?
(c) Would changing the manometer fluid so that
oscillatory? Repeat the analysis for an increase in

(density) is larger make its response more or less

(viscosity).

(a) For a step change in input of magnitude M, what is the time (ts) required for such a process to settle to
within 5% of the total change in the output?
(b) For K = 1 and a ramp change in input, u(t) = at, by what time period does y(t) lag behind u(t) once the
output is changing linearly with time?
5. The following transfer function is not written in a standard form

(a) Put it in standard gain/time constant form.

(b) Determine the gain, poles and zeros.
(c) If the time-delay term is replaced by a 1/1 Pade approximation, repeat part (b).
6. The transfer function that relates the change in blood pressure y to a change in u the infusion rate of a drug
(sodium nitroprusside) is given by

The two time delays result from the blood recirculation that occurs in the body, and
coefficient. The following parameter values are available:

is the recirculation

Use Simulink to construct the block diagram and simulate the blood pressure to a unit step change (u = 1) in
sodium nitroprusside infusion rate.
