Chapter 5. Introduction to Feedback Control
The objective of this chapter is to introduce the Laplace domain analysis of feedback control systems. After studying this chapter, the reader should be able to do the following:
Convert a process and instrumentation diagram (P&ID) to a control block diagram
Find the controller transfer function for standard feedback controllers
Find the closed-loop transfer function for a given process and controller transfer function
Determine the stability of a closed-loop system
Find the transfer function relationship between any two signals on a block diagram
The major sections of this chapter are as follows:
5.1 Motivation
5.2 Development of Control Block Diagrams
5.3 Response to Setpoint Changes
5.4 PID Controller ...
