Cat 2 QP

1. The document is a test for a Process Automation and Control subject containing 3 questions. The first question involves determining the gain and integral time of a pneumatic PI temperature controller based on output pressure data. 2. The second question asks the student to construct a cascade control system block diagram for a two-input, one-output process and calculate the closed loop response offset to a disturbance. 3. The third question asks the student to explain why anti-integration windup is necessary for PID control with an accompanying diagram.

Answer ALL questions


1. A pneumatic PI temperature controller has an output pressure of 10 psig when the
set point and process temperature coincide. The set point is suddenly increased by
10 ° F (i.e., a step change in error is introduced), and the following data are
obtained: [8 Marks]

Determine the actual gain (psig/° F) and the integral time.


2. Consider the process with two different disturbance d 1 and d2 as shown in Fig. 1
[15 Marks]
Construct a cascade control system for the process and draw its block diagram.
Compute the offset of the closed loop response to a unit step change in d 2 (both
primary and secondary controllers are p- controllers)

3. Why provision for Anti- integration Windup is necessary for process with P-I-D
control? Explain with appropriate diagram.
[7 Marks]

SET2

1. The input error signal to the PI controller changes stepwise with a magnitude of 2
and the controller ouput (C’) changes as given in Fig. 1. Find the values of controller
gain (Kc) and integral time constant (Ti)
[8 Marks]

Fig. 1
2. Consider the feedback loop having the following transfer functions:
[15 marks]

e 0.5s
G p  Getd s  ; G f  Gm  1
0.8s  1
Although the model is perfectly known the dead time, t d value is wrongly
determined as 0.45 min. Discuss the impact of dead-time on the effectiveness of
Smith predictor when the process operates under P-only controller with Kc=30.
