Lect Slides - Dynamic Response Characteristics of More Complicated Processes

This document discusses dynamic response characteristics of more complicated processes. It covers topics like higher order systems, poles and zeros, time delays, and approximations. It describes how processes can have higher order transfer functions or numerators as a function of s, leading to complications. It discusses effects of poles, zeros, and time delays on response. Methods to approximate higher order systems like Taylor series, Pade approximations, and Skogestad's half rule are presented. The document also discusses interacting and non-interacting processes and provides examples of multiple input multiple output systems.

• Where {zi} are the “zeros” and {pi} are the “poles”.

• For practical control system, n>=m in order to have a


physically realizable system. 7

Step change to a lead-lag system (First
order process with numerator dynamics)
• Transfer Function and response (in Laplace form)

• Response

• Difference in response due to


the presence of zero for a step
input
• Instantaneous step response
possible because numerator and
denominator has same order

Second order process with numerator
dynamics – step response
• Single zero in an overdamped second – order system

Inverse response system
• When initial response to a step input is in one direction
but the final steady state in the opposite direction
• Associated with right – half plane zero
• Examples
• Change in steam boiler pressure in distillation column – level
control
• Effect of feed temperature in tubular catalytic reactors with
exothermic reactions– exit temperature control

• Inverse response or overshoot can be expected


whenever two physical effects act on the process output

Process with time delays
• Time delays occur due to:
1. Fluid flow in a pipe
2. Transport of solid material (e.g., conveyor belt)
3. Chemical analysis
- Sampling line delay
- Time required to do the analysis (e.g., on-line gas chromatograph)

• Mathematical description:
A time delay, θ, between an input u and an output y results in the
following expression:

Approximation of Higher Order
Transfer Functions – Taylor Series
• Taylor series expansion of the transfer function for a time delay can
be approximated as

This approximation is a right-half plane (RHP) zero at s = +θ

• An alternative first-order approximation consists of the transfer


function

Time constant has a value of θ

• Above expressions can be reversed to approximate pole or zero


terms by the time delay term 16

Approximation of Higher Order Transfer
Functions – Skogestad’s “Half Rule”
Skogestad (2003) has proposed an approximation method for
higher-order models that contain multiple time constants
• The largest time constant/constants in the denominator is/are
retained
• The largest neglected time constant is identified
• One-half of the largest neglected time constant is added to the
existing time delay if any
• Other one-half of the largest neglected time constant is added to
the smallest time constant
• Time constant which are smaller than the largest neglected time
approximated as time delay 17

Interacting and non-interacting
processes
• Systems different than Single Input Single Output (SISO)

• Non-interacting behaviour
• System that does not exhibit interaction
• Example: Tank in series where liquid level in one tank does not
influence the level in another tank

• Interacting behaviour
• Variables that interact with each other
• More complicated process transfer function
• Example: Tank in series where liquid levels depends on each
other
