output z. And reduce primitive flow table. The behavior of the circuit is stated as follows. Initially x=y=0

whenever x=1 and y = 0 then z=1, whenever x = 0 and y = 1 then z = 0.When x = y = 0 or x = y = 1 no

change in z it remains in the previous state. The logic system has edge triggered inputs without having a

clock 1 .The logic system changes state on the rising edges of the 2 inputs. Static input values are not to

have any effect in changing the Z output.

1. Consider the level control system implemented with a computer whose inputs and outputs are calibrated in

terms of full range (100%). The tank is 1 m in diameter and the valve on the exit line act as a linear

resistance with R= 6.37min/m2. The level transmitter has a span of 0.5 m and an output range of 0 to

100%. The flow characteristic of the equal percentage control valve is related to the fraction of lift by

the relation f =1)30(

. The air-to-open valve receives a 3 to 15 psi signal from an I/P converter, which in

turn, receives a 0 to 100% signal from the computer implemented proportional controller. When the

control valve is fully open ( =1), the flow rate through the valve is 0.2 m3/min. At the nominal operating

condition, the control valve is half open ( =0.5). Detect the closed-loop response to a unit step change in the set point for three values of the controller gain: Kc=1, 2 and 5.

closed-loop system produces unstable response if

3. Flow control loops are usually fast compared to other loops, and so they can be considered to be at steady

state (essentially). In this case, Integral control is recommended. Judge whether for Gd= Gp=Kp, the integral

control provides satisfactory control for both set point change and disturbance. 4. Why do we claim that there are a large number of control configurations for a MIMO process? Determine
