Process Dynamics and Control 1

This document is an exam for the course Process Dynamics and Control at the Indian Institute of Technology-Kharagpur. It contains 3 questions asking students to: 1) Discuss the importance of real PID controllers compared to ideal controllers, derive the velocity form of PID to avoid derivative kick, and explain why proportional gain is varied in gain-scheduled PI controllers. 2) Derive a feedback controller expression for a given nonminimum phase system using direct synthesis, discuss steps to tune a feedforward controller, and discuss ratio control schemes for chemical reactors with their merits and demerits. 3) Define a control relevant model, describe methods to realize a state space model from a transfer function, and determine the
