Step function: Mathematically, the step function of magnitude A can be expressed as X (t) = A u (t) where u (t) is a unit step function. It can be graphically represented as
To study the transient response for step function, consider the system consisting of a tank of uniform cross sectional area A1 and outlet flow resistance R such as a valve. q (^) o ,volumetric^ flow^ rate^ through^ the^ resistance,^ is^ related^ to^ head^ h^ by^ a^ linear relationship qo = h/R -------(1) Writing a transient mass balance around the tank: Mass flow in - Mass flow out = rate of accumulation of mass in the tank. 〈q (t) - 〈 qo (t) = d(〈Ah)/dt q(t) - qo (t) = A1 dh /dt ------(2) Combining equation (1) and (2) to eliminate qo (t) gives the following linear differential equation: q - h/R = A1 dh/dt -------(3) Initially the process is operating at steady state, which means that dh/dt = 0. Therefore equation (3) becomes as qs - h (^) s /R= 0 -----------(4) Where, the subscript s indicates the steady state value of the variable. Subtracting equation (4) from (3) (q - q (^) s) = 1/R ( h - hs ) + A1 d(h - hs ) / dt ----(5) Defining deviation variable
Theory
In non-interacting system we assume the tanks have uniform cross sectional area and the flow resistance is linear. To find out the transfer function of the system that relates h 2 to q, writing a mass balance around the tanks, we proceed as follows
We can write mass balance at tank1 as q-q 1 = A 1 (dh 1 / dt) ………………………… (1)
A mass balance at tank 2 is given as q 1 -q 2 = A 2 (dh 2 / dt) ……………………….. (2)
The flow head relationships for the two linear resistances in non-interacting system are given by the expressions q 1 =(h 1 / R 1 ) ………………………………. (3)
q 2 =(h 2 / R 2 ) ……………………………… (4)
From (1) and (3) Q 1 (s) 1 ----------- = ------------ ……………………… (5) Q(s) τ 1. S + 1
Where Q 1 = q 1 - q1s, Q = q - qs and τ 1 = A1 R
From (2) and (4)
H 2 (s) R 2 ----------- =------------ ……………………….. (6) Q1(s) τ2. S + 1 Where H 2 = h 2 - h2s and τ 2 = A 2 R 2
Overall transfer function can be calculated as follows H 2 (s) R 2 ----------- =------------------------ ………………. ( 7) Q(s) (τ1. S + 1) ( τ2. S + 1 ) For a step change of magnitude A Q(t) = A u(t) So, Q(s) = A / s AxR H2(s) = -------------------------------------------------- ….( 8) s x (τ1. S + 1) X ( τ2. S + 1 )
H 2 at time t is given by (τ 1 x τ 2 ) 1 1
H 2 (t)= A R2 [1 - -------- {--- e -^ t/^ τ^1 -^ ----- e -t/^ τ^2 }] ……………(9) ( τ 1 - τ 2 ) τ 2 τ 1
Mathematically, the impulse function of magnitude A is defined as X(t) = A (t) Where (t) is the unit impulse function. Graphically it can be described as
Overall transfer function of the system as described in previous experiment H 2 (s) R 2 ----------- = ------------------------ ……………… (1) Q(s) (τ1. S + 1) ( τ2. S + 1 ) For a impulse change of magnitude V (volume added to the system) Q(t) = V (t) So, Q (s) = V VxR 2 H 2 (s) = -------------------------------------------------- … (2) (τ 1. S + 1) ( τ2. S + 1) For impulse change H 2 at time t is given by
e -^ t/τ^1 - e -^ t/τ^2 H 2 (t)= V R 2 [--------------------------] ………………… (3) ( τ 1 -^ τ 2 )
Considering non-linear resistance at outlet valve of the tank R2 can be calculated as R 2 = 2dH 2 /dQ Where dH 2 is change in level of tank2 and dQ is change of flow from initial to final state. Put the values in equation (3) to find out H (t) (^) Predicted and plot the graph of H (t)

As mentioned in theory part of experiment 3, impulse function is described as X (t)= A (t) Overall transfer function of the system as described in previous experiment H 2 (s) R 2 -------- = ----------------------------------------- ………(1) Q(s) τ 1 τ 2 s^2 + (τ 1 + τ 2 + A 1 R 2 ) s +
For a impulse change of magnitude V (volume added to the system) Q(t) = V (t) So, Q (s) = V V R 2 H 2 (s) = -------------------------------------------------- ---(2) τ 1 τ 2 s^2 + (τ 1 + τ 2 + A 1 R 2 ) s +
For impulse change H 2 at time t is given by
V R 2 H 2 (t)= ---------------- [e (αt)^ – e (βt)] -----(3) τ 1 τ 2 (α-β)
(For α, β refer theory part of experiment No. 4) Considering non- linear valve resistance, the resistance at outlet of both tanks can be calculated as R 1 = 2 dH1/dQ ------------(4) R 2 = 2 dH2/dQ ------------(5)
