Control System Flashcards
consists of subsystems and processes assembled for the purpose
of obtaining a desired output with desired performance, given a specified input
control system
Two major measures of performance of Control System
Transient Response
Steady-state Error
If transient response is too fast, passenger
________ is sacrificed; if too slow, passenger
______ is sacrificed
- comfort
- Patience
Passenger safety and convenience would
be sacrificed if the elevator did not level
properly. What major measure of performance of control system is described?
Steady-state Error
we can
move large equipment with precision that
would otherwise be impossible, with?
Control System
Advantages of Control System
*Power Amplification
*Remote Control
*Convenience of input form
*Compensation for distrubance
converts the form of the input to that used by the controller.
Input Transducer
drives a process or a plant.
Contoller
The input is sometimes
called the
Reference
output can be
called the ___
Controlled Variable
are shown added to the controller and process outputs via summing junctions, which
yield the algebraic sum of their input signals using
associated signs
Disturbances
Input reference > Input Transducer> Controller> Summing Junction (D1)> Process/plant > Summing Junction (D2) > Output/Controlled Variable
Open-loop System
Input reference > Input Transducer> Controller> Summing Junction (D1)> Process/plant > Summing Junction (D2) > Output/Controlled Variable > Output Transducer/sensor > input summing junction > controller
Closed-loop System
System that cannot compensate for any disturbances
Open-loop System
Measures the output
response and converts it into the form used by the
controller.
output transducer, or sensor
