Open loop VS. Closed loop system Open loop system In simple words Open system is the system which is not under control. It means that To will be changed if any change occurs in Ti or Q or m. As an example ,Let s take the CSTH(continuous stirred tank heater) m Ti cp Variables M m To cp Input variables output variables m Ti Q To Q Fig.1 CSTH (open loop system)
Transfer function of open loop Previously we discussed the transfer function of the CSTH and we found that ?? = ? ( ??,?,?) ?1 ?2 ?3 To = ?? + 1??+ ?? + 1? ?? + 1? The signal flow Block diagram (SFBD)is shown in Fig.2 ?1 Ti(s) ?? + 1 + + ?2 Q(s) To(s) 1 ?? + 1 - ?3 m(s) ?? + 1 Fig.2 SFBD for open system.
Closed loop system In simple words Closed system is the system which is under control. It means that To will remain constant if any change occurs in Ti or Q or m.

Transfer function of closed loop The transfer function of a closed system depends mainly upon Load variables and set point Type equation here.Referring to the previous example of CSTH, we can construct three transfer functions as follows ?1? =??(?) ,?2? =??(?) ?3? =??(?) ??(?) ? (?) , ???(?)
Ti (s) ??1 + + m(s) ??2 Controlled variable Comparator + Q + P Tsp (s) Set point E + To(s) ?? ?? ?? - Tm ?? To Measured variable ?1? =??(?) ??1 ??(?) = 1 + ???? ???? ?2? =??(?) ??2 ? (?) = 1 + ???? ???? ?3? =??(?) ???? ?? 1 + ???? ???? ???(?) =
Derivation of Transfer function of a closed loop system We try to derive the transfer function ?1? =??(?) ??(?) Note that the only input variable is Ti Ti (s) ??1 Z2 + + So, m and Tsp are both constants m=0 and Tsp=0 m(s) ??2 Z3 Controlled variable Z1 Comparator + Q + P Tsp (s) Set point E + To(s) ?? ?? ??

??? = ??? ??1+ ?4 (3) Ti (s) ??1 Z2 ?4 = ??? + ?4 = ????? + m(s) ??2 Z3 ?4 = ?????? E ?4 = ?????? ??? ?? ??? ???= 0 Controlled variable Z1 Comparator + Q + P Tsp (s) Set point E + To(s) ?? ?? ?? Z4 - ?4 = ?????? ?? . 4 Subs. Eq.(4) in (3) gives Tm ?? Measured variable To ??? = ??? ??1 ?????? ?? (5) ??? = ??? ??1 ??????????(?) ??? (1 + ????????) = ??? ??1 ??? ??? ??1 ?1? =??? ??1 = = 1 + ???????? ??? 1 + ???????? In the same way, we can derive the other two transfer functions. ?3? =??(?) ???? ?? 1 + ???? ???? ?2? =??(?) ??2 ???(?) = and ? (?) = 1 + ???? ????
Example 1: A closed loop system consists of the following items: - Process: ? ? = ? ? ? ,? ? ? ??? ? ? ?? ???? ???????? ??? ? ? ?? ???????????? ????????. ? ? = 3?+1? ? + 2 4 10?+1?(?) - Controller transfer function: ??? = 0.2 - Valve transfer function: ??? = 2 - Measurement transfer function: ??? = 1 2?+1 Construct the signal flow block diagram (SFBD) for the closed system.

Regulator VS. Servo loop Regulator Loop: It is a closed loop in which the load is varied and the set point is constant. Servo Loop: It is a closed loop in which set point is varied and the load is constant. Consider the closed loop shown below X(s) ??(?) + + P ysp (s) Set point Z E + y(s) ??(?) ??(?) ??(?) - y ym ??(?) For the regulator loop, the transfer function is ??(?) ? ? =?(?) ?(?)= 1 + ??(?)??(?)??(?)??(?) For the Servo loop, the transfer function is ?(?) ???(?)= ??(?)??(?)??(?) 1 + ??(?)??(?)??(?)??(?) ? ? =
Example 2 A close loop system in which the output variable ?? is function of both load variable?? and the set point ???. i.e. ??= ?(??,???). The system has the following elements with their transfer functions: 3 10?+1 Process : ??? = 1 Load : ??? = 10?+1 Measurement :??? = 1 Control Valve : ?? ? = 1.5 Controller : ?? ? = 2 a. Draw the block diagram for this closed loop. b. Find the transfer function if the system operates as servo. c. Find the transfer function if the system operates as regulator. d. Find the response, if a unit step change occurs in the load and sketch it.

Example 3 A closed loop system has the following items; Process : ??? =3 ? 2? 10?+1 , Load : ??? =? 2? 10?+1 , Measurement: ??? = 1, Valve: ?? ? = 1.5 , ?? ? = 2 The output variable (controlled variable) ?? is function of load variable ?? and set point ??? , ??= ?(??,???). a.
