An examination paper for the electrical control engineering module (elec 7003) in the bachelor of engineering in electrical engineering program at cork institute of technology. Instructions for the examination, duration, sitting, and requirements. It consists of three questions covering topics such as transfer functions, pole-zero diagrams, time response, and inverse laplace transforms. The questions require students to evaluate transfer functions, sketch poles and zeros, and calculate controller gains for a critically damped response.

The simplified model of the d.c. motor considers only the mechanical time constant as the electrical
time constant is normally much shorter.
The input to the d.c. motor is electrical d. c. supply voltage and the output is shaft speed.
Simplified Model of D.C. Motor
back e.m.f. generated in the armature.
(a) Produce the block diagram consisting of the system transfer functions in the Laplace domain
8marks
(b) Evaluate the complete system transfer function which relates output speed to input voltage, and
verify that the following equation is the correct representation.
