Question
In a manufacturing plant, a level sensor is used to measure the level range in between 18 m and
24 m. The minimum output voltage of the pressure sensor is 2 V and the maximum output
voltage is 10 V. This output voltage is used to control a valve via a controller. The valve in fully
close (0%) condition when receives 2 V and fully open (100%) when receives 10 V.
(a)
Interpret the transfer function for the level sensor.
(b)
Calculate the level that cause the valve be opened for 75 %.
(c)
If the level sensor has time constant of 3ms, solve the output of the level sensor at t =
5ms when the pressure changes from 19 psi to 21 psi att 0s.
(d)
Calculate the error in term of level at t= 5ms.
