An open-loop unstable process can be stabilized with correct proportional
control action. Consider a traditional feedback control loop (shown below) with
Gm=G=1.

The process is described as
U(s)

а.
Demonstrate the response of the process is unstable without a controller.
b.
Find the range of Ke values that lead to a stable closed loop response. (Assume that
Tp must be positive).
The result of part b shows that KmKcKvKp>0 is a simplified statement when one of
the

cause an increase in the control variable (a positive gain). This is true if the gain of
the closed loop response is positive. Show that the gain of Y(s)/Ysp(s) is positive
within the range of your answer to part a.
