![PROBLEM 1
We wish to control the temperature y(t) of a room with an electrical heater driven by an input
voltage u(t). This heater provides continuous control action, as opposed to the on-off heaters that
most of us have at home. Let us define the set electric heater-room (see Figure 1a) as “the plant".

In the fall season, a voltage u(t) =10 [V] produces a room temperature yall = 70 ['F], and
*F
therefore, the plant gain is P= 7
V
In wintertime, with the outside low temperature as a perturbation, the same u(t) = 10 [V]
'F
produces a room temperature of ywinter = 60 ['F], so the plant gain becomes P=6

For CASE 1 and CASE 2 below, let us measure the robustness of the control system, by
calculating the following percent difference (PD):
PD=fall -Ywinter
-x100
y winter
The smaller PD, the more insensitive to perturbations is our control system. In other words, the
smaller PD, the more robust the control system is.
