Q1) Derive the transfer function H/Q for the liquid-level system shown in Fig. 1. The resistances
are linear; H and Q are deviation variables. Show clearly how you derived the transfer function.
You are expected to give numerical values in the transfer function.
Q2) Find the transfer function that relates the height in the vessel to changes in the inlet flow rate.
Where:
Q3) The two-tank mixing process shown below contains a recirculation loop that transfers
solution from tank 2 to tank 1 at a flow rate of αqo.
Develop a transfer function that relates the concentration c 2 in tank 2 to the concentration x in the
feed, that is, C 2 ( s )/ X ( s ) where C 2 and X are deviation variables. For convenience, assume
that the initial concentrations are x = c 1 = c 2 =0.
Assume that each tank has a constant holdup volume of 1 ft3. Neglect transportation lag in the line
connecting the tanks and the recirculation line.
